i2c lcd module quotation
The CFA533-***-KC series is a 16x2 I2C LCD with keypad. The I2C interface allows you to use just two lines (SDA & SCL) to have bi-directional communication with the I2C LCD. Other devices can also share those two I2C control lines with the LCD. Only 4 wires are needed to connect this I2C LCD: power, ground, SDA (I2C Serial DAta) and SCL (I2C Serial CLock).
The CFA533 can run on 3.3v to 5.0v directly, with no changes needed, so you do not need to do any level translation between your embedded processor and the I2C LCD. Simply power the CFA533 from the same supply as your processor and the I2C signal levels will match up.
Using only one address on your I2C bus, you can add all the elements that you need for your front panel. The CFA533 I2C LCD can also read up to 32 DS18B20 digital temperature sensors, giving you an easy way to integrate temperature sensing over the I2C bus. No additional firmware or pins are needed on the host system.
This CFA533-TFH variant features crisp dark letters against a white, backlit background. The keypad has a matching white LED backlight. Since the LCD is a backlit positive FSTN, the CFA533-TFH I2C LCD is readable in direct sunlight, as well as complete darkness.

2x16 Character LCD is most popular display component for small controller like Arduino, but most of these LCD uses parallel interface. In most of the case, you will need 10 pins to control it or to display message on it. 8-pin are for the data, Enable and Latch pin for signal control. Minimum, you will need 6-pin for 4-bit mode interface. Still a lot of pins being used up :(
This I2C module for LCD will help you save all those precious pins. This module will only need 2 GPIO pins (specifically I2C pins) to send message to Character LCD.
This module uses an I2C communication interface. Including the I2C pins: SCL and SDA, it only require two more pins for power, VCC and GND. It saves 4 to 8 pins on Arduino or any other controller. The pins are breakout into standard right angle header (2.54mm spacing), you can connect with female jumper wire directly.
It comes with potentiometer for LCD contrast adjustment, and configurable I2C Address through A0, A1 and A2 pads. Anyway, the default address is 0x3F or 0x27. There is also a mini jumper to activate or deactivate the backlight.
This article includes everything you need to know about using acharacter I2C LCD with Arduino. I have included a wiring diagram and many example codes to help you get started.
In the second half, I will go into more detail on how to display custom characters and how you can use the other functions of the LiquidCrystal_I2C library.
Once you know how to display text and numbers on the LCD, I suggest you take a look at the articles below. In these tutorials, you will learn how to measure and display sensor data on the LCD.
Each rectangle is made up of a grid of 5×8 pixels. Later in this tutorial, I will show you how you can control the individual pixels to display custom characters on the LCD.
They all use the same HD44780 Hitachi LCD controller, so you can easily swap them. You will only need to change the size specifications in your Arduino code.
The 16×2 and 20×4 datasheets include the dimensions of the LCD and you can find more information about the Hitachi LCD driver in the HD44780 datasheet.
After you have wired up the LCD, you will need to adjust the contrast of the display. On the I2C module, you will find a potentiometer that you can turn with a small screwdriver.
The LiquidCrystal_I2C library works in combination with the Wire.h library which allows you to communicate with I2C devices. This library comes pre-installed with the Arduino IDE.
*When using the latest version of the LiquidCrystal_I2C library it is no longer needed to include the wire.h library in your sketch. The other library imports wire.h automatically.
Note that counting starts at 0 and the first argument specifies the column. So lcd.setCursor(2,1) sets the cursor on the third column and the second row.
Next the string ‘Hello World!’ is printed with lcd.print("Hello World!"). Note that you need to place quotation marks (” “) around the text since we are printing a text string.
The example sketch above shows you the basics of displaying text on the LCD. Now we will take a look at the other functions of the LiquidCrystal_I2C library.
This function turns on automatic scrolling of the LCD. This causes each character output to the display to push previous characters over by one space.
I would love to know what projects you plan on building (or have already built) with these LCDs. If you have any questions, suggestions or if you think that things are missing in this tutorial, please leave a comment down below.

In this tutorial, you will see how to connect i2c LCD display (Liquid Crystal Display) to Arduino using the i2c module. Before starting this article we will see what is i2c. I2C (I-square-C i.e IIC) means inter-integrated communication protocol. This is usually used to communicate between one master and multiple slaves. One of the best things about using I2C is we can reduce the connections (wiring). If you use normal LCD display, you need a total number of connections are 12. If you use I2C LCD display, you need only just 4 connection. By seeing the example you may know the advantage of I2C protocol. I2C protocol is also known as 2 line protocol.
Of course it is very wasteful on our Digital Pin on Arduino, to overcome this problem we need an I2C LCD that works like the Shift Register so that the interface pins can be less.
I2c LCD Backpack Module has 16pin Output that can be connected with LCD pins 1602/2004 directly (permanently soldered) and has 4pin inputs (VCC, GND, SDA, SCL) .
Hello friends welcome back to Techno-E-solution, In previous video we see how to interface LCD 16×2 to Arduino Uno, but there are very complicated circuits, so in this tutorial, I"ll show you how to reduce circuitry by using I2C module which is very compact & easy to connection. Simply connect I2C module with LCD parallel & connect I2C modules 4 pins to Arduino. I2C module has 4 output pins which contains VCC, GND, SDA, SCL where 5V supply gives to I2C module through VCC & GND to GND of Arduino. SDA is a data pin & SCL is clock pin of I2C module. To interface LCD and I2C with Arduino we need Liquid Crystal I2C Library in Arduino IDE software.
The Arduino control board has 20 10 ports, add some sensors, SD cards, etc., and the relay module has more than 10 ports. The original 1602 screen needs 7 10 ports to be driven.
What is the purpose of declaring LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 2, 1, 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, POSITIVE); if we are using pins A4 and A5? I know that 0x27 is the ic address but what is the rest for?
I am getting a error while i m going to add zip file of lcd library error id this zip file does not contains a valid library please help me to resolve this issue as soon as possible.....
Hey guys. My LCD works fine using the above instructions (when replacing the existing LCD library in the Arduino directory) but I can"t get the backlight to ever switch off. Suggestions?
IIC/I2C Interface Adapter Module is used for 16×2 LCD Display.It uses the PCF8574T IC chip which converts I2C serial data to parallell data for the LCD display.Also this interface module simplifies connecting an Arduino to a 16×2 Liquid Crystal display using only 4 wires.
Sometimes it may be necessary to use a display while making a hardware project, but the size and the type of the display may vary according to the application. In a previous project, we used a 0.96″ I2C OLED display, and in this project we will have an I2C 20×4 character display.
This liquid crystal display has 4 lines, 20 character in each line and cannot be used to display graphics. The main feature of this display that it uses I2C interface, which means that you will need only two wires to connect with Arduino. At the back side of the screen there is a small PCB soldered in the display, this circuit is a serial LCD 20 x 4 module and it also has a small trimpot to adjust the contrast of the LCD.
Display’s backlight is blue and the text is white. It is fully compatible with Arduino and has 5V input voltage. Its I2C address could be 0x27 or 0x3F. You can get it for about $7 from Bangood store.
DS3231 is a low-cost, accurate I2C real-time clock (RTC), with an integrated temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) and crystal. The device incorporates a battery input, so that if power is disconnected it maintains accurate time.
RTC maintains seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. Less than 31 days of the month, the end date will be automatically adjusted, including corrections for leap year. The clock operates in either the 24 hours or band / AM / PM indication of the 12-hour format. Provides two configurable alarm clock and a calendar can be set to a square wave output. Address and data are transferred serially through an I2C bidirectional bus.
This RTC module operates at input voltage range between 3.3V and 5.5V, so it can be connected with 3.3V or 5V pins. It is available on Banggood store for about $2.
Unzip the library and add it to the Arduino libraries folder, then run Arduino IDE and copy the following code. The first two lines are to include both of I2C and LCD libraries.
lcd.setCursor(3,0) will set the cursor of the LCD in the specified location, the first argument for the column and the second for the row starting form 0.
Here we will use a small breadboard to connect the RTC module and display with the Arduino’s I2C pins (A4 and A5). The SCL pins are connected with analog 5 pin and the SDA pins with analog 6 pin. The top rail of the breadboard used as I2C bus and the bottom one is power bus.
In addition to setup and loop function, we will create four other functions to organize the code. As the corners and vertical lines of the frame are special characters, we have to create them manually. So we will use a function to create them and another one to print them on the LCD.
Inside the loop function the time will be read from the real time clock module and the printed to the LCD using a custom function for each of time and date.
At first, we have to include the three libraries, I2C, LCD, and RTC and set the LCD address. Inside the setup function the display is initialized, then we will call createCustomCharacters() function and print them.
Each character can be 5-pixel long in width and 8-pixel in height. So to create a custom character we need to create a new byte. We need 5 characters, the vertical line and the four corners. The yellow pattern shows you how the character will be displayed on the LCD.
Inside createCustomCharacters() function, we called lcd.createChar(#, byte array) function. The LCD supports up to 8 custom characters numbered from 0 to 7. It will assign the index in the first argument to the character given by the byte array. To print this character we can use lcd.write(byte(#)) function.
This function is very simple, it uses lcd.setCursor(#,#) to move the cursor and lcd.print(“”) to print the given string. The function will print the top and bottom horizontal lines, then printing other custom characters.
As we discussed earlier, the loop function will get the current time and date every second and refresh them on the display. First we defined a time element “tm” which has current time data, then if the time is correct and the RTC module working fine the time and date will be printed.
PrintTime function uses three arguments, the column and line where it will print the time, and the time element. lcd.print(tm.Hour) will print the hour, then if the minutes and seconds are less than 10 we will add 0 to the left. And the same method is used to print the date.
