Hello. I copied "LCD_4bit.c" and "LCD.h" files from Keil examples folder to my project folder and add it to my project. Then I changed Pins definition in "LCD_4bit.c" according to my project board LCD pins(LPC 2378). (I don't think that The problem is here.) Then I could successfully Build it, but when I download it to my project board,there is no signs that LCD works. However when I compile "LCD_4bit.c" in IAR environment ,the produced "hex file" works well on my project board. Thanks for your help.
"Something else that might affect the timing"
tamir: good ones.
hopefully that's sufficient to convince andy that the execution duration of assembler delays is not possible to predict based on a) the code; and b) disable of the interrupt.
I could add a few more:
1) some chips can run on variable frequencies; 2) some 8051 chips can run on 1 cycle, 6 cycles or 12 cycles; 3) some chips can be user-configured on variable frequencies (those that use outside RC oscillators for example. but other possibilities exist too). ...
