arduino lcd panel kullan谋m谋 manufacturer

This stems from the fact that the LCD controller itself does not inherently support the function and in fact treats the ASCII codes for and as displayable characters instead of control codes.

In my opinion the basic LiquidCrystal library should concentrate on implementing all of the capabilities of the LCD controller and no more. If people want a library that more closely emulates a CRT (or LCD) terminal that is fine, but I think it should be done in a different library.

Good morning makers, I"m trying to use some old LCD screens, I"m using Arduino nano to control the display with the classical 4-bit configuration and the hello world sketch of the liquidCrystal library(I used also the one of newliquidCrystal library) but I can see only some black boxes on the right part of the screen.

I put it to clear a certain part of the lcd where the millisecond counter is. It never cleared. When i replaced the lcd.print(""); with lcd.print("."); it displayed an period where I wanted the nothing.

"m using a jhd 162A blue 16x2 display. when i display a msg in english it is displaying it in some random characters, whereas the numbers are shown correctly. when i change the lcd and put a jhd 162a green/yellow display the english characters are shown correctly. where is the problem? should the blue lcd be programmed differently?

A lot of the early LCD modules had no backlight but most of those that did required a high voltage (more than 100v as I recall) to operate that backlight. The connections were at the end of the display.

Most modern LCD modules do incorporate an LED backlight and two pins are now typically added to the pc board design to provide an interface to that backlight. If a particular display does not have a backlight the same pc board can be used but those pins will be unused.

I am assuming that your LCD module resembles the one in the picture on your link page. Almost all of them follow the same pinout but there are a few that are slightly different.

Otherwise here are some suggestions. First remove all of the wires between your display and your Arduino. Next you want to connect up only the power pins and the contrast potentiometer (LCD pins 1, 2, and 3). When you apply power to the LCD module your Arduino LEDs should remain on and the ICs on your LCD should remain cool. If you have the same type of problems that you had before then you may either have a bad device or possibly one of the oddball displays with the power pins reversed. If that is the case then try reversing the connections to pins 1 and 2.

If your LCD has an LED backlight you should deal with this next. It"s power leads are typically a mirror image of the main power leads which means you should connect pin 16 (the one nearest the center of the display if there are no markings) tp GND and connect pin 15 to +5v through a 150 ohm resistor. Your backlight should come on although it may be dim. If your LCD has pins 1 and 2 reversed then these pins may be reversed as well.
