Basic Standard Calculator 
(Using ATMega16 Microcontroller) 
Aim of this project is to design a calculating device capable of 
performing basic calculations (add, subtract, multiply, divide) on two 
operands. 
Project overview 
Basic Standard Calculator
Hardware components required 
1. ATMega 16 microcontroller 
2. Basic calculator keypad 
3. 2x16 LCD 
Keypad and LCD are connected with microcontroller to make an easy man-machine 
interface to make the calculator capable of performing the desired 
function. 
 ATMega16 microcontroller: This is the brain of system which is 
programmed to take input from user through keypad, perform the 
desired operation and then display the result on the provided 2x16 LCD. 
 Basic calculator keypad: This is a 4x4 (having 4 rows and 4 columns) 
keypad which is interfaced with microcontroller with its each key 
assigned a specific no. or operator defined in the program. 
 2x16 LCD: this is the liquid crystal display module capable of 
displaying 32 characters in two rows (16 in each row). Microcontroller 
displays characters on it while taking inputs from user and to display the 
result to user.
Interfacing keypad with microcontroller 
Keyboard Connections to PORTS 
With matrix keypads 16 keys can function with 8 pins (4 rows and 4 columns) 
of microcontroller’s either same or different ports as convenient.
