Password protection using PIC Microcontroller, password protection, password protection system, keypad password protectionHello friends, hope you all are fine
and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new project which is Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller. In this project I am going to use
keypad and LCD and will be designing a system in which I am gonna drive a motor if the correct password is supplied. If you entered the wrong password then the
motor will not move and you will get another chance to enter the correct password. I hope you guys are gonna enjoy this one.

I have used Keypad, LCD and PIC Microcontroller in order to design the simulation in Proteus ISIS software. You should also have a look at Electronic Door Lock
using PIC Microcontroller, which is quite similar with the only difference of keypad. In that previous project, I have used serial monitor for taking inputs but in
today's tutorial, I have used Keypad for taking inputs. I hope you are gonna enjoy this one.

I have used Proteus software for designing the simulation and I have used MikroC Pro for PIC compiler for designing the programming code for PIC
Microcontroller and I have used PIC16F877 Microcontroller for designing this project. The code and simulation is given below for download. If you have any
problem then ask in comments and I will try my best to resolve them. So, let's get started with Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller.

Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller

You can download the complete simulation along with the code by clicking the below button but as I always suggests that you should design it on your own so
that you get most out of it:

So, now let's design this Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller project, so design a circuit as shown in below figure:

Password protection using PIC Microcontroller, password protection, password protection system, keypad password protection

You can see in the above figure that I have used LCD 20x4 along with Keypad, motor and PIC Microcontroller.
I have also used a transistor which is kind of a driver for DC Motor, because DC motor is operated at 12V while PIC Microcontroller signal is of 5V so we
need this transistor in order to drive our motor.

Note:

If you want to use this new stylish LCD in your Proteus simulation then you need to download and install this New LCD Library for Proteus. All instructions
are given in this link for using this LCD.

Next thing we need to do is to design a programming code for this project.

I have designed the code in MikroC Pro for PIC compiler so copy the below code and paste it in your project of MikroC Pro for PIC and compile to get the
hex file:
unsigned short kp;
char actual_password[] = "123123";

This code is used for design the code for this Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller project.
Now after getting the hex file from this code, upload it in your simulation and if everything goes fine then you will get results as shown in below figure.
The first screen will be look like something as shown below:

Password protection using PIC Microcontroller, password protection, password protection system, keypad password protection

So, its saying Welcome to Password Lock and the the link of our blog.
After that it will ask for 6 digit password, as shown in below figure:

Password protection using PIC Microcontroller, password protection, password protection system, keypad password protection

Now the default password for this project is 123123, so if you have given the correct password then the motor will start moving but if you given the wrong
password then it wont move and will ask for password again.
So, let's give it a wrong password at first:

Now you can see in the above figure that when I have given the wrong password then it says Incorrect Password and Try again.
The motor will also remain stationary.
Now I am gonna give it a correct password and we will see the motor will start moving as shown in below figure:

Password protection using PIC Microcontroller, password protection, password protection system, keypad password protection

Now when I have given the correct password, the motor started moving and the LCD says, press * to OFF and Lock again.
So, now when you press * then the motor will stop and it will again ask you to enter 6 digit password.
I have design this below video which will give you a better idea of working of this project:

So, that's all for today, I hope you have understood all about Password Protection using PIC Microcontroller. Will meet you guys in the next tutorial, till then take
care and have fun !!! :)

This is a very nice projet. my qustion is 1. how can i change the defualt code of the project. 2. how can two or more motors control using the same project.
kindly help. I am new in microcontoller programming.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have a project and I really would like to try this. But I am required to use the PIC16F1829 and
use assembly or C language. Do you think it would work? Can you give me some tips on how to do it? I am an electrical engineer junior student.

Hi,

I think the LCD issue is because of noise. If there’s noise in the data pins of LCD then it shows random noisy characters. As the keypad is concerned, its
quite easy you just need to connect all pins of keypad with any port of PIC so I think issue’s in programming. I would suggest you to work on them one
by one and debug it a lot. You will get good results.

Thanks.
