7 Seg ASMUpdown

This document describes an up/down counter circuit using an 8051 microcontroller. The counter displays a value from 0-9999 on four 7-segment displays using multiplexing. It increments or decrements the count when buttons are pressed. The microcontroller reads the button states and updates the 7-segment values accordingly. Program code in C is provided to implement the up/down counting functionality.

Up down counter using 8051 microcontroller (AT89C51)

By Himanshu Choudhary

This article shows an easy to build up down counter. The counter is based around
the 8051 microcontroller (AT89C51). Two switches are provided, one for increment
and second for decrement. The switches can also be replaced by sensors to increment
or decrement.

In this circuit, four seven segment display are used to show the value of count.
The maximum value of count is 9999. The circuit uses the concept of multiplexing of
seven segment to display the value of count. For more details on seven segment
multiplexing, refer article titled “Seven segment multiplexing”.

In this circuit data output for the seven segment is given on the port P2 of the
microcontroller AT89C51. The control signals for enabling the seven segment
displays are given on pin no. 1,2,3,4 of microcontroller. The input of switches is
taken on pin number P3.5 and P3.6. Switch connected on pin P3.5 is the increment
switch and that at pin P3.6 is the decrement switch. The seven segment used here
are common anode.

Whenever the increment switch is pressed the counter increments by one and when the
decrement switch is pressed it gets reduced by one. The inputs of the
microcontroller are made positive edge triggered by using a capacitor and resistor
as shown in the circuit diagram. This helps in removing the problem of counting
more than one on a single press of a switch. The value of the counter is displayed
using the concept of seven segment multiplexing.
