(1) The digital clock serves as a timing device that displays the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and weekday. With the advancement of digital integrated circuits and the widespread use of quartz crystal oscillators, the precision of digital clocks has far surpassed that of traditional mechanical timepieces. The digitization of timekeeping devices has greatly improved convenience in daily life and work, while significantly expanding the original functions of watches.
(2) Features such as automatic timed alarms, program-controlled time switches, automated streetlight control, power equipment activation or deactivation, and even the triggering of various timed electrical devices all rely on the digitalization of clocks. Therefore, studying digital clocks and exploring their applications hold substantial practical significance. This electronic clock is built using an AT89S52 microcontroller and an LCD1602 display, allowing users to switch between 12-hour and 24-hour formats via a button.
Features:
(1) Display of year, month, day, week, hour, minute, and second;
(2) Time adjustment function;
(3) Support for 12/24-hour mode switching;
(4) Hourly chime functionality.

The LCD1602 comes in two types: backlit and non-backlit. Most models are based on the HD44780 controller. While the backlight version is thicker, there is no functional difference in application. Key technical specifications of the 1602LCD include: display capacity of 16x2 characters, operating voltage range of 4.5–5.5V, working current of 2.0mA at 5.0V, optimal working voltage of 5.0V, and character size of 2.95×4.35 mm (W×H).
LCD1602 Pin Diagram
Pin 1: VSS – Ground connection.
Pin 2: VDD – Connected to a 5V power supply.
Pin 3: VL – Contrast adjustment pin. When connected to ground, contrast is highest, which may cause ghosting. A 10K potentiometer can be used to adjust the contrast for optimal display.
Pin 4: RS – Register select pin. High level selects data register; low level selects instruction register.
Pin 5: R/W – Read/write signal line. High level for reading, low level for writing. When both RS and R/W are low, instructions or addresses can be written. When RS is low and R/W is high, the busy signal can be read. When RS is high and R/W is low, data can be written.
Pin 6: E – Enable pin. When it transitions from high to low, the command is executed.
Pins 7–14: D0–D7 – 8-bit bidirectional data lines.
Pin 15: Backlight positive terminal.
Pin 16: Backlight negative terminal.
System Circuit Simulation
Module Circuit Design:
The minimum system includes a reset circuit and a clock circuit. The clock circuit provides a 12 MHz signal, while the reset circuit allows for manual resetting without powering off the device.
Minimum System
The D0–D7 pins of the LCD are connected to the P0 port of the MCU. Since the P0 port is used as an output, external pull-up resistors are required. RS is connected to P2.0, and EN is connected to P2.1. An external 4K potentiometer is used to adjust the contrast of the display.
LCD Circuit
The module uses a separate keyboard. When a key is pressed, the corresponding I/O port level changes from high to low, allowing detection of the key press. Four independent buttons are connected to the P3.0–P3.3 ports of the MCU.
Keyboard Input Function Circuit
The buzzer is used to generate an alarm sound at specific times. The LED lights up when the seconds are even or when a function key is pressed. The buzzer is connected to the P2.2 port, and the LED is connected to the P2.3 port of the microcontroller.

Software Design Flowchart:
The code should be structured accordingly to implement all the functions described above, ensuring accurate timekeeping, user interaction, and proper operation of the display and alarm systems.
