16x2 alphanumeric lcd module datasheet for sale

The 162D is one of our 16 character x 2 row chip on board (COB) alphanumeric displays. These classic 16x2 LCD modules are available in a multitude of LCD and LED backlight color combinations to achieve the perfect look for your product. Some of our most popular combinations are STN yellow-green LCD with yellow-green LED backlight, STN blue LCD with white LED backlight, and STN grey LCD with either blue, amber or pure green LED backlight.

The 16x2 Alphanumeric LCD Display Module is equally popular among hobbyists and professionals for its affordable price and easy to use nature. As the name suggests the 16x2 Alphanumeric LCD can show 16 Columns and 2 Rows therefore a total of (16x2) 32 characters can be displayed. Each character can either be an alphabet or number or even a custom character. This particular LCD gas a green backlight, you can also get a Blue Backlight LCD to make your projects stand our and visually appealing, apart from the backlight color both the LCD have the same specifications hence they can share the same circuit and code. If your projects require more characters to be displayed you can check the 20x4 Graphical LCD which has 20 Columns and 4 Rows and hence can display up to 80 characters.

The 16x2 LCD pinout diagram is shown below. As you can see the module has (from right) two power pins Vss and Vcc to power the LCD. Typically Vss should be connected to ground and Vcc to 5V, but the LCD can also operate from voltage between 4.7V to 5.3V. Next, we have the control pins namely Contrast (VEE), Register Select (RS), Read/Write (R/W) and Enable (E). The Contrast pin is used to set the contrast (visibility) of the characters, normally it is connected to a 10k potentiometer so that the contrast can be adjusted. The Read/Write pin will be grounded in most cases because we will only be writing characters to the LCD and not read anything from it. The Register Select (RS) and Enable pin (E) pin are the control pins of the LCD and will be connected to the digital pins GPIO pins of the microcontroller. These pins are used to instruct the LCD where place a character when to clear it etc.

From DB0 to DB7 we have our eight Data Pins which are used to send information about the characters that have to be displayed on the LCD. The LCD can operate in two different modes, in the 4-bit Modeonly pins DB4 to DB7 will be used and the pins DB0 to DB3 will be left idle. In 8-bit Mode, all the eight-pin DB0 to DB7 will be used. Most commonly the 4-bit mode is preferred since it uses only 4 Data pins and thus reduces complexity and GPIO pin requirement on the microcontroller.Finally, we have the LED+ and LED- pins which are used to power the backlight LED inside our Display module. Normally the LED+ pin is connected to 5V power through a 100 ohm current limiting resistor and the LED- pin is connected to Ground.

Characters written to the LCD controller are stored to , 10. Optrex 16207 LCD Controller Core NII51019-7.1.0 Core Overview The Optrex 16207 LCD controller core with Avalon® Interface ("the LCD controller") provides the hardware interface and software driver required for a Nios® II processor to display characters on an Optrex 16207 (or equivalent) 16x2

RC1602C is a 16x2 character type LCD display with module dimension 85.0 x 36.0 mm. This monochrome display LCD 16x2 has built-in IC ST7066. Default interface of RC1601A module is 6800; if you require interface such as SPI or I2C, they’re available as well, but the IC will be replaced with RW1063.

Raystar provides various LED backlight combinations for RC1602C 16 character x 2 lines LCD display module, such as yellow-green, green and white. You can choose module with LED backlight or without it.

This RC1602C display LCD 16x2 offers a selection of fonts, including English/Japanese, Europe and Cyrillic (Russian), etc. Feel free to contact us if you need full datasheet or more info of this display lcd 16x2.

16x2 LCD modules are very commonly used in most embedded projects, the reason being its cheap price, availability, programmer friendly and available educational resources.

16×2 LCD is named so because; it has 16 Columns and 2 Rows. There are a lot of combinations available like, 8×1, 8×2, 10×2, 16×1, etc. but the most used one is the 16×2 LCD. So, it will have (16×2=32) 32 characters in total and each character will be made of 5×8 Pixel Dots. A Single character with all its Pixels is shown in the below picture.

Now, we know that each character has (5×8=40) 40 Pixels and for 32 Characters we will have (32×40) 1280 Pixels. Further, the LCD should also be instructed about the Position of the Pixels. Hence it will be a hectic task to handle everything with the help of MCU, hence an Interface IC like HD44780is used, which is mounted on the backside of the LCD Module itself. The function of this IC is to get the Commands and Data from the MCU and process them to display meaningful information onto our LCD Screen. You can learn how to interface an LCD using the above mentioned links. If you are an advanced programmer and would like to create your own library for interfacing your Microcontroller with this LCD module then you have to understand the HD44780 IC working and commands which can be found its datasheet.

These displays are straightforward to use and are a great way to provide a user interface on many projects where you need more info than simple LED indicators or 7-Segment displays can provide since these are full alphanumeric displays with 2 lines of 16 characters each.  For an interactive display, pairing this type of display with a rotary encoder to navigate and select menu items on the display can provide a very nice user interface.

The display is composed of a 16 character x 2 line LCD display with a blue backlight and white characters.  Each of the characters are composed of a 5 x 8 dot matrix for good character representation.

This display incorporates an I2C interface that requires only 2 pins on a MCU to interface with and it has good library support to get up and running fast.   The I2C interface is a daughter board attached to the back of the LCD module.

If you need to adjust I2C address to avoid a conflict, this can be done on the I2C adapter board on the back of the module.  There are 3 address jumper locations marked A0, A1, A2.  Normally these lines are pulled high.  If you bridge these pads, it grounds that address line.  If you were to bridge all 3 to ground, the address would be 0x38 (or  0x20) depending on which version you have.  The range of all possible addresses spans from 0x38 – 0x3F or 0x20 – 0x27

These are good quality modules and should be in the parts bin of any hobbyist.  Because of the interactivity they provide, they are both fun to play with and useful for more serious projects.

Note that the I2C address of the module we sell is either 0x3F (63 decimal) or 0x27 (39 decimal) but can be adjusted if needed as explained above.  The address will be printed on the label on the bag.

Dark on light gray sunlight readable 16x2 character LCD with single LED backlight included. All pins and functionality is documented in the datasheet. Contrast can be easily adjusted with a potentiometer or PWM. Each row holds 16 characters there are 2 rows per module.
