connecting an arduino to lcd module for sale

That is correct for the first LCD. You can implement additional LCDs with one additional pin for each additional LCD module. You can purchase a serial interface, which is actually a dedicated microcontroller, that will get you down to one digital pin per LCD module.

Start with the tutorial at http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/LiquidCrystal. If you have any trouble getting it to work then check out the more extensive tutorial at Arduino Tutorial - connecting a parallel LCD.

Such as the products you buy on our site - can"t simply be shipped freely from country to country. When goods are imported into a different country or customs territory, there is a charge called Customs Duty that must apply. This is charged by the local customs authority where the goods are being imported into.

If Customs Duty is payable to your territory, you"ll be responsible for paying it to the authorities, so SunFounder isn"t involved in this process. Whether Customs Duty is payable, and by how much, depends on a whole lot of different things. For example, many countries have a "low value threshold" below which they do not charge any Customs Duty.

If you do have to pay Customs Duty though, the amount payable is usually calculated based on the value of the goods and the type of goods being imported.

If, for whatever reason, you refuse the customs fee and the parcel is returned back to us. If you"re still unsure on whether you"ll be subject to customs fees, we recommend contacting your local customs office for more info before placing your order!

Because we will only be writing, pin 5 will be dropped to ground to show that there will be no reading.  For those who wish to use the backlight, connect LCD pin 16 to GND and LCD pin 15 to +4.2V.

For us to be able to connect the module to an Arduino board, we need to study first the pins of the LCD module. The image below shows the pinout of for the LCD Module (1602):

Usually, the module’s pins are labeled 1 (leftmost pin) and 16 (rightmost pin). This gives us the order of the pins from 1 – 16. To better clarify the pin labeling, please see below:

The potentiometer has to be powered as well, so connect its VCC and GND pins to the +5V and GND pins respectively of the Arduino board of your choice(refer to the schematics for the VCC and GND pins).

Connect the Arduino board to the PC via a USB connector (usually supplied with your board when you buy one). We are now ready to upload some example sketches to our Arduino board. Luckily, the Arduino IDE has a built-in ready example for our set up. The first part of the sketch explains the pin connections from the LCD module to the Arduino board, and this matches our schematics.

As said previously, the first part of the sketch explains the pin connection of the LCD module to the Arduino board. The next thing to do is to upload this sketch to the Arduino board. However, before that, we need to check if were have selected the right board, the and the right COM where the Arduino is connected to (for other boards, please select the right configurations as required by the board):

We are now ready to upload this example sketch. To upload this sketch, the shortcut CTRL + U can be used. Uploading sketches can also be done by going to Sketch > Upload in the menu, or click the arrow (pointing rightward), just below the menus:

IMPORTANT: If you are not seeing anything (or maybe only white blocks) in the LCD screen, then you might want trying to adjust the contrast of the display via the potentiometer. Turn it left or right until the output can be seen in the display.

The schematics shows the connection between the LCD Module and the I2C module. We connect the I2C module to the Arduino board, using only 4 wires. Let’s look at the schematic below.:

Connect the VCC pin of the I2C module to 5V pin (VCC) of the Arduino board. The GND pin of the I2C module should be connected to the GND pin of the Arduino board. SDA and SCL pins of the I2C modules should be connected to A4 and A5 pins of the Arduino board respectively:

Some LCD modules already have the I2C module attached to them (soldered). This is actually better, as we don’t need a breadboard to connect the modules together. In our experiment, we will assume that the I2C module isn’t soldered to the LCD module. If the schematics above is followed correctly, the setup should be similar to what is shown below:

Since we are using an I2C module, we need to determine the address of the device. You can then Upload first the I2C Scanner to your Arduino board, open the Serial monitor (be sure you are in the correct COM port). The I2C Scanner sketch can be found in the Arduino web site:

NOTE: You need to upload first the I2C Scanner sketch to the board to determine the address of your I2C module. After you’ve determine its address, then the sample sketches for the Liquid Crystal I2C can then be uploaded, since the sample sketches requires the I2C address.

Sketch is something similar as below. The text inside the blue rectangle in the sketch is the address of the I2C device, but yours might have a different one – the reason why we need to upload the I2C Scanner sketch and determine the address by opening the Serial Monitor in the Arduino IDE:

Now, upload this sketch (be sure to change the address, since this might be different as yours. Mine is 0x3F). The output should be the same as shown below:

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.

To make this project we need Arduino Liquidcrystal library in Arduino IDE. Follow following steps to add this library in Arduino IDE software.Open Arduino IDE Software.

A PCB Design Problems Detector, An Engineering Solution ProviderImport the Gerber file with one click. No need for complicated file reading steps to review easily and improve efficiency.

In this project, we will connect an LCD screen to an Arduino and use it to display some basic text. This covers both the physical connections and the programming required to get an LCD to work. If this is your first project then we recommend that you familiarise yourself with programming an Arduino first.

This project consists of two parts, one which prints Hello World, The DIY Life and a second which prints The DIY Life and then prints a seconds since start-up counter on the second line.

The screens we are covering in this project have 16 pin parallel interfaces, meaning that the Arduino has to send data on multiple pins at the same time in order to change the screen text. Fortunately, the Arduino has a built in library for LCD screens which are compatible with the Hitachi HD44780 driver so we can make use of the built in function library and do not have to manually code functions to control the screen.

To understand the basic on how the screen is operated, there are three pins which control the registers (RS, RW and E), then 8 data transfer pins (D0-D7) and finally a set of pins to provide power, control the contrast and turn the backlight on and off. For displaying general text you only need to make use of 4 of the data transfer pins as the screen will be running in 4 bit mode.

Firstly you need to connect the screen up as shown in the diagram below. This can be done in one of two ways. You can solder a wire ribbon onto the screen and then pins on to the ends of the wires which then plug directly into the Arduino or you can solder a pin header onto the screen and plug it into a breadboard which you can then connect to the Arduino using jumpers.

The 10K pot is used to adjust the contrast of the screen. The 220Ω resistor is connected along the positive supply for the back light in order to limit the current.

The pin connections to the LCD screen are as follows: Pin 10, 11 and 12 are used to control the registers and are connected to the E, RW and RS pins respectively. Pins 2,3,4 and 5 are the data transfer pins and are connected to d7, d6, d5 and d4 respectively. Be careful when connecting the pins as the numerical sequence on the Arduino pins is the opposite to the screen pins.

Now you can begin the coding. For the first example, we will only be using the setup loop as we just need the screen to display “Hello World” and “The DIY Life” on the screen without any further changes.

We begin by importing the Liquid Crystal library. This enables us to use short functions to control the screen instead of having to manually code each letter or cursor movement.

Now we move on to the setup code method. We first tell the lcd object how many columns and rows or characters our screen has. In this case the screen size is 16 x 2. We then clear the screen to ensure that it is blank, set the cursor to the first row and first character, then begin sending the text “Hello World” to the screen. We then tell the cursor to move to the second row of characters and print “The DIY Life”.

If you have connected everything correctly then the screen should now display Hello World on the first line and The DIY Life on the second line. You may need to play around with the contrast adjustment on the 10K pot to make the text visible, this adjustment is shown in the video below:

Now we can move onto using the loop function to constantly change information on the screen.  First we remove “Hello World” and move “The DIY Life” to the first row, this is all done in the setup function.

When you run this code you should see The DIY Life in the first row and a counter which updates every second in the second row and runs until 100 seconds. The counter in operation is shown in the video below:

You have now covered the basics on connecting an LCD screen to the Arduino and using the built in control functions to change the text displayed on the screen.
