AI Thread Summary
The 82C55 is a programmable peripheral interface commonly used for interfacing with devices like keyboards, where it manages input and output operations. It is not necessary for simpler devices such as LCDs, which can often be driven directly by microcontrollers. Users seek application notes and examples to better understand its functionality and appropriate use cases. The discussion emphasizes the need for clarity on when to implement the 82C55 in various applications. Understanding its role enhances effective interfacing in microcontroller projects.

I have a basic doubt about the usage pf 82C55.

Wanted to know when exactly it is used. Eg: For a keyboard you have to use a 82C55 but for a LCD it is not necessary. So when exactly do we use it??

Can you give us some links to application notes for that PPI part? What are your thoughts on when and why it is used?
 

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...

Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'

Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
