This set is ideally suited to adding a screen to your project. This is the 1602 backlit module which provides 2 lines of 16 white characters on a blue background and is based on the popular HD44780 setup. This set includes a serial interface board that allows the use of the I2C connection on microcontrollers like the Arduino.
The included serial board uses the serial data and clock connections to obtain data to display on the screen. Microcontrollers such as the Arduino communicate using these serial connections by running a readily available library, please contact us if you require assistance finding obtaining the files. The interface board also contains a potentiometer that controls the brightness of the letters on the background.
Communication is handled through a 2 pin I2C interface, available on a wide range of microcontrollers. The I2C address of can be set by setting the available solder points for addresses in the range of 0x20 - 0x27.
When using this set with an Arduino you connect SDA and SCL are connected to A4 and A5 respectively. The Arduino requires the use of the LiquidCrystal I2C library which is readily available that includes examples. Instructions for the setup process are easy to find online, however please do not hesitate to contact us if you require assistance.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require further information regarding the module's operation.
