serial communication between two 89c51

hi, please help me out with circuit to connect two 89c51, one transmitter nand other receiver. also 7 segment is connected to the receiver side.
i tried it once with the sample i found in this forum but it worked only in proteus not with real hardware.. reply fast plz

Hi,

8051(1) RXD < ----------------------------- 8051(2) TXD

8051(1) TXD -----------------------------> 8051(2) RXD

Please make circuit as above with necessary components and Write Program using Serial Communications Interrupts in Both uC.

can you post codes you tried. let me see if there is any problem with code.

I am using BiPOM's Micro C:

http://www.bipom.com/products/us/202.html

to have 2 8051 boards ( MINI-MAX/51-C2 ) talk to each other through the serial port. There is a NULL modem cable in between so RXD goes to TXD and TXD goes to RXD.

On both sides, I initialize serial port to 9600 baud using the C function serinit(9600>>1);

I use C function putch() on one side to send bytes to the serial port. I use getch() on the other side to receive the bytes.

I have not tried but it should be fairly easy to add a 7-segment display board like this:

i hope you are taking care of pin no.5 i.e. gnd

8051(1) RXD < ----------------------------- 8051(2) TXD

8051(1) TXD -----------------------------> 8051(2) RXD

8051(1) GND <----------------------------> 8051(2) GND

i have not grounded pin no. 5 of each, is it neccesary. my code for transmitter n receiver is below.
transmitter side

#include <REGX51.H>
void main()
{

int sig=0x55; // signal to be transmitted.


TMOD=0x20; // selecting Timer 1, with mode 8bit auto reload.
TH1=0xFA; // setting baud rate = 4800
SCON=0x50; // setting the 8bit Control reg which control the SBUF with RC5
TR1=1; // starting the timer
while(1) // thios point onwards the code is sending 0x55 all the time
{
SBUF=sig;
while(TI==0);
TI=0;
}
}
receiver side


#include <AT89X51.H>
#define d P2

void main()
{
char rxdata; // this variable recieves data
TMOD=0x20; // selecting Timer 1, with mode 8bit auto reload.
TH1=0xFA; // setting baud rate = 4800
SCON=0x50;
TR1=1;
while(1)
{
while(RI==0); // this line will wait for the data to come
rxdata=SBUF; // as soon as the data is recieved its tranferred to a variable so that the next variable doesnt overwrite the data just receieved
RI=0; // clearing the flag.

if(rxdata==0x55)
d=0x24; // 0x24 displays 2 on the 7-seg

}}

about circuit

7 segment is LT542. pin no 21 to 27 are connected to 7 pins of 7seg.. vcc is aplied to 3and 8 pin. pin 5 is left unused


8051(1) RXD < ----------------------------- 8051(2) TXD

8051(1) TXD -----------------------------> 8051(2) RXD....>7seg display(common anode)

plz help me for this ..
n thanx for replies

you have to make changes in your circuit to free pins required for communication. try moving 7-seg display pin to other unused pin. or better if you can post your schematic here.

Is the code I posted above is correct. If not please modify it and would you please mind simulating it in Proteus. I simulated it in Proteus and it worked there.

your hardware probably not matching your software then..

coz how is this possible?

8051(1) TXD -----------------------------> 8051(2) RXD....>7seg display(common anode)

i dont see anything in circuit above.
