I/ Introduction:
Topic of mini project: Build a system using NIOS II in kit DE10 to connect a
LCD 16 x 2 and H-bridge to control a motor. This system can do the following
tasks:
- When SW0 is ON, LCD blinks the sentence “Hello Word !!! ” in the middle
of row 1 with frequency Hz. (Using timer)
- When SW1 is ON, NIOS II controls the motor by sending PWM pulses to
the H-bridge. LCD displays the duty cycle and the frequency of PWM rules.
- When SW0 and SW1 is OFF, turn off the system.
Reference:
- Datasheet of LCD 16x2
- An instruction of LCD interference
- L298_H_bridge datasheet
II/ Process:
1. VHDL part:
 DE10 Kit:
Choose option as follows:
+) GIPO (default): need for connection with LCD 16x2 and 2 ports for H
bridge L298N.
+) Switch: need switch to the cases like the topic (SWITCH 0 and 1)

 Open Quartus 18.1 and open VHDL file:


 Open Platform Designer:

 In the Platform Designer, we have these blocks:


+) System and SDRAM Clocks for DE-Series Boards
+) NIOS II Processor
+) On-chip Memory (RAM or ROM) Intel FPGA IP
+) SDRAM Controller Intel FPGA IP
+) JTAG UART Intel FPGA IP
+) PIO (Parallel I/O) Intel FPGA IP (x4)
+) System ID Peripheral Intel FPGA IP
+) Interval Timer Intel FPGA IP

2. NIOS II ECLIPSE:
 Open NIOS II Software Build Tools for Eclispe.

 Next, we choose directory path for the software project and click OK.
- This is the code NIOS II Elispe of our group. In this part, we will introduce
each function and explain it.
 The 1st function:

This function ,”void send_data(unsigned char data)”, means that it is used


to write the data we want display in LCD to PIO. To be more clearly, the data
(0x500+data) will be written into the address of register LCD_BASE, after waiting
200ms, it continues add the data (0x100+data) to the address of this register.
 The 2nd function:
This function is used to make own commands and test them. The first
function is used to add the data (0x400+cmd) into the LCD_BASE register. Then,
after waiting 200ms, the data(0x000+cmd) is added into the register
 The 3rd function:

In this function, we will write the data into the register LCD_BASE in the 1st
function above, and in this case, we write each character in the world “Hello
World!!! ” to the register. After waiting 200ms, we will use command “Clear
Display Screen” in the function “send_cmd(0x001)” and return the function.
 The 4th function:
This function is used to configure the LCD display. To figure this we have
four command words are sent to LCD, including:
1) Function set(“send_cmd(0x038)”)
2) Display On/Off control(“send_cmd(0x00E)”)
3) Entry mode set (“send_cmd(0x006)”)
4) Display clear (“send_cmd(0x001)”)
To be more clearly, we will present the chart of these steps below:
 The 5th function:

In this function, we use to output the frequency to the screen LCD by using
the function “send_data” in the 1st function. It prints “Freq: 1kHZ” to the LCD
screen and in the function “send_cmd(0x0C0)”, this means that we will display the
“Duty: 50%” into the second line.
 The 6th function:

 The main function: (chưa xong)


In the main function, we declare a static variable “alt_alarm alarm” which
memorizes every time we call it. In the next steps, we will do a loop “while” which
keep going when it equals 1. We have function
“IORD_ALTERA_AVALON_PIO_DAT” is used to read the state of ALL
SWITCH.
In the 1st case, the SW 0 is set to 1 and it is showed by the return value is
0x01. It runs the function “lcd_start()” in the 4th function. In the case
