|
The LCD03 20x4 LCD Module makes it easy to add an alphanumeric
display module to your design. The module includes an integrated
display driver which can operate in either I2C or Serial mode. It
requires only a 5V power supply and two data connections for either
mode, freeing up pins on your processor. Many useful text formatting
functions are provided, including the ability to create custom characters.
There is a 64 byte FIFO buffer to ensure a minimum of delay in writing
to the display.
A backlight is also included, which may be switched on and off
under software control.
An I2C interface is available on many popular microcontrollers
such as the
BASIC Stamp BS2P and may be easily implemented on most PIC microcontrollers
using either the PicBasic
or PicBasic Pro compiler.
Examples of using the LCD03 module with a wide range of popular
controllers may be found
here.
