Digital Voltmeter

This document describes a microcontroller-based digital voltmeter that can measure DC voltages from 0 to 5V. It uses an ATMEL 89c51 microcontroller along with an ADC0804 analog to digital converter to read voltage levels, and displays the voltage reading on a liquid crystal display. This provides an improvement over commercial digital voltmeter modules, which cannot power the module from the same source being measured. The schematic diagram lists the integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, and crystal oscillator used to build the digital voltmeter.

MICROCONTROLLER BASED DIGITAL VOLTMETER


ABSTRACT

These days you can get at almost every local electronic store digital voltmeter modules (DVM-modules). Those instruments are meant to be placed into any equipment. They have however one big problem and usually there is no mention of that on the box. If it is mentioned than it is usually only in the fine print inside the leaflet that comes with it. You can't power the module from the same power that you intend to measure. The best solution to the problem is to take a small microcontroller with ADC-0804 (analog to digital converter) and add a LCD display. This project can measure DC voltages from 0 to 5V using ADC0804. The voltage is shown over the Liquid Crystal Display.
