Real time clock with relative humidity and temperature sensing using PIC16F877A, 2004 LCD, DS1307 RTC and DHT11

This topic shows how to build a real time clock with relative humidity and temperature sensing using PIC16F877A microcontroller, DS1307 RTC and DHT11 (RHT01) sensor where all data are displayed on 20x4 LCD display. The 20x4 LCD has 20 columns and 4 rows which is good enough for this project. The compiler used to program the microcontroller is CCS PIC C PCWHD.
To see how to interface PIC16F877A with DS1307 take a look at the following topic:
Real time clock using PIC16F877A microcontroller and DS1307 serial RTC
And to see how to interface PIC18F4550 with DHT22 (AM2302) take a look at this topic:
Interfacing DHT11 relative humidity and temperature sensor with PIC16F877A microcontroller
The DS1307 RTC is an 8-pin integrated circuit uses I2C communication protocol to communicate with master device which is in our case the PIC16F877A microcontroller. This small chip can count seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month and year with leap-year up to year 2100.
The DHT11 (RHT01) sensor comes in a single row 4-pin package and operates from 3.3 to 5.5V power supply. It can measure temperature from 0-50 °C with an accuracy of ±2°C and relative humidity ranging from 20-90% with an accuracy of  ±5%. The sensor provides fully calibrated digital outputs for the two measurements. It has got its own proprietary 1-wire protocol, and therefore, the communication between the sensor and a microcontroller is not possible through a direct interface with any of its peripherals. The protocol must be implemented in the firmware of the MCU with precise timing required by the sensor.

The project C code is just a combination of the C codes of the two previous projects.
The reading of relative humidity and temperature data is done every 1 second.
