Subject: [piclist] LCD Noise problem Hi all
I m using 16F877 Controller and the LCD display in my system ,my other
process in the system effects the display oftenly.
Can I use an buffer ( line driver between LCD and Microchip),When i check
with the Osciloscope i saw all the singmal amd control line & power line of
the LCD has some noise.Due to this noise the display collapse( shift by one
character) after few hrs then need to restart then its ok,

What type of LCD display are you using?

You really need to find the source of the noise. I doubt if a buffer would
help.

Hello Leon,

Did you put some bypass capacitors in your design.
Each time you perform an action, your parts will sink current. If the
power supply has no 'reserve' to provide the current that is suddently
required, the Voltage will drop in accordance.

If you already have Bypass Cap, try to enlarge the capacity.

Also check for routing of your board. What you describe could also come
from cross talk between asynchronous functions running in parallel.
You should avoid data tracks routed in parallel of clocks or power
tracks.
Also avoid rapidly changing signal tracks routed under critical
components.

Don't forget that the activity of a board 'can' indirectly be monitored
trough it's power lines for example.
Do not under estimate the cross talk (both capacitive and inductive
coupling) between wires.

One last thing, which is quit the same as putting some bypass capacitor,
try to filter the power line, before and after the regulators.
If capacitors are insufficient, try to use a little inductor in line
with the VCC.

Good luck,

Vincent

Dear Ramesh,

Try putting iUF tantulum byepass at pin 1 and pin2 of
the LCD Display.
