8051 based project That can save up to 60 codes with max of 6 combination of numbers

yes you can make it using ordinary push bottons......

see tutorial section of this site it also have a keypad circuit using simple switches and you can also google for it.....

yes. Thats the original concept of keypad. Did u see the code that i attached?

Ang also see this video im using ordinary tact switch here.

where do u having ur ojt onyot?

see this schematic this is simple 4*4 matrix keypad using simple switches...

what about 8 seven segment? do you have a link that I can use as a reference?

hi onyot.josephian
7-seg is an easy task not difficult
ru using 8 pieces of 7 segments
8051 has 4 ports and 1 segment piece need one port if we drive it by one port
it mean u only can attach a 4 segments to 8051 but not
there r multiplexing techniques that we can attach many 7- segments to only one port

hi onyot, there is also multiplexing technique in which u can save ports. There is a multiplexing tutorial here and u must read 8. I suggest u to start in one area like 4 example keypad interfacing an etc. Before u go to more complex things. Good luck to u yar!

Romel.. about that program you've given to me... what is the sample password? is it 12345?

hi onyot.josephian
i think code was 12345
romel can verify it

Majoka, in my project what is best to monitor, especially using a keypad? is it high or low? Is it okay to connect my keypad directly to the pins of 8051?

What type of display is it? seven segment or lcd?
