L.C.D. Front Panel Set: 2x16 L.C.D. w/HD44780 controller, 4 push buttons, 3 LEDs and a 2x12 pin header.

LCD Front Panel Set:

2x16 LCD w/HD44780 controller, 4 push buttons, 3 LEDs and a 2x12 pin header.

16 x 2 char LCD (STN). Non backlit. Light grey background and dark blue characters. Single character size aprox 0.2 x 0.1 inch (5 x 3 mm)
Standard Hitachi HD44780 controller, (actual Hitachi, not a clone) Compatible with most LCD microcontroller code.
4 Push Buttons: SPST high quality with gold plated contacts.
3 LEDs for use as indicators.
Contrast adjustment pot.
One common 24-pin connector (also gold plated pins).
4 layer PCB with grounded outer layers: Excellent EMC and ESD protection.

Pete says: "Your 2x16 LCD panel is hot! Any chance you have a 4x24 unit in the works?" James Newton answers Sorry, no. These are one of a kind, overstock items that will no longer be available when the existing stock runs out. I can't begin to make such an item for this price.

juanmarod says: "Thank you. Very good Displays. Every think ok. I put you a positive feedbak on Ebay."

John Muchow says: "James, I just received my order of three LCD Front Panels, thanks for the great service! I'm looking forward to getting my PICs hooked up to them. :-)"

Tom Lackamp says: "I spread the module's pins out at a 45 degree angle, then took the last .200 or .250 inch and formed them back to the vertical so I could plug them into the breadboard using .300 spacing." Toms modification allows the LCD module to be used with a standard "whiteboard" breadboarding system. Since the connector pins are quite long, even after being bent, they seat into the breadboard firmly.

Questions:

Any chance this panel canbr driven by 3.3v supply & I/O? Thanks - Steve James Newton replies: No, sorry, it needs 5 volts.+

akiroz_dunkspam at yahoo.com asks: " hi.i`m is interest in your project.can you display the source code for that project,please??" James Newton replies: See http://www.massmind.org/techref/io/lcd/44780.htm+

cstanleyw4spam at comcast.net asks: I was wondering if the PIC16F690 would be appropriate for use with this? It would seem you designed this with the PIC16F877 in mind so I thought I'd ask. James Newton replies: Absolutly.+

charlie2224spam at msn.com asks:
Hey, I am way new to this whole LCD Panel + microcontroller stuff, can you give me a few links to places where I can learn to write and load software onto this thing? I really love this product and it's exactly what I need!

James Newton replies: See: /techref/io/lcd/44780.htm+

caramel_s_t_mspam at hotmail.com asks: " does this works with 4 and 8 bit mode ? is the EN pin is 5 or 6 ? in it supports 4 bit mode , do I have to ground the none used pins ? thanks" James Newton replies: As with any 44780 LCD both 4 and 8 bit modes are supported. Enable is pin 5, and you can ignore unused pins.+

caramel_s_t_mspam at hotmail.com asks: " I'm using the basic stamp2. Is this lcd compatible with it" James Newton replies: Yes!+
+
jochen.burkertspam at hap.com asks: " Hi I`m using a PIC18F4580 and want to know if your display is compatible to it. Regards Jochen" James Newton replies: Sure! Any microcontroller with a few IO lines free should be able to use it. We do NOT supply sample code but you may be able to find it on the net.+

Randy G Glenn asks: " James, will you ship these to Canada? (USPS preferred due to UPS' insistence on gouging) Also, is shipping $5 per unit or $5 per order? Thanks!" James Newton replies: Randy, for you I would ship to Canada via USPS Air Parcel Post for $10 per order up to about 20 units. That is only because I know you. My standard price for international shipping is $20 via USPS REGISTERED Air Mail. These are also being auctioned on eBay and you might find a better shipping option there.+
