This is an ROHS compliant product manufactured with ISO standards and procedures.

In this project, I will show you how to interface a 128X64 Graphical LCD with Arduino UNO. This particular LCD Module is based ST7920 LCD Controller. So, we will first see a little bit about the Graphical LCD Module and its LCD Controller ST7920.

In the previous Arduino project, I have interfaced a Nokia 5110 LCD Module with Arduino. It is also a graphical LCD which can display some basic bitmap images and graphics. But the issue with Nokia 5110 LCD Module is its resolution.

At 84 x 48 pixels, the Nokia 5110 LCD can be used for implementing a menu-based user interface. Due to its small size, the resulting menu will be limited to 3 or 4 items per page.

If we want a bigger display with more real estate to work with, then the obvious choice is to go for the bigger and better 128×64 Graphical LCD Module.

As a demonstration, after making all the hardware connections, I will display a bitmap image on the Graphical LCD Module. If you are interested in implementing a simple 16×2 Alpha-Numeric LCD with Arduino, then check out this tutorial.

At first glance, the 128×64 Graphical LCD Module seems like a bigger brother to the famous 16×2 LCD or 20×4 LCD Modules, with their similar construction and almost similar pin layout.

But there is a significant difference between those two. 16×2 or 20×4 LCDs are essentially character displays. They can only display alpha-numeric characters and some simple custom characters that are confined to a 5×8 matrix.

By using different combinations of pixels, we can basically display characters of various sizes. But the magic doesn’t end there. You can display images and graphics (small animations) as well. In a 128×64 LCD Module, there are 64 rows and 128 columns.

There are several versions of the Graphical LCD in the market. Even though the usage, application and implementations are almost identical, the main difference lies in the internal LCD Controller used to drive the dot matrix display.

Some of the commonly used LCD Controllers are KS0108, SSD1306, ST7920, SH1106, SSD1322, etc. The pin out of the final LCD Module might vary depending on the LCD Controller used. So, please verify the LCD Controller as well as the pin out before making a purchase.

The Graphical LCD Module I purchased consists of ST7920 Controller. It is manufactured by Sitronix and supports three types of bus interfaces i.e., 8-bit mode, 4-bit mode and Serial interface.

If you have used 16×2 LCD Display earlier, then you might be familiar with both 4-bit as well as 8-bit parallel interfaces. The serial interface is something new and we will explore this option in this project.

As I already mentioned, double-check with the manufacturer about the pinout of the Graphical LCD Module. The following table describes the pinout of the 128×64 LCD Module that I have.

Now that we have seen a little bit about the Graphical LCD and its controller ST7920, let us now proceed with interfacing the 128×64 Graphical LCD with Arduino. I will implement a simple circuit to demonstrate how easy it is to interface the LCD and Arduino using very few external components.

So, connect the RS, RW and E of the LCD to Digital IO pins 10, 11 and 13 of Arduino UNO. Also, in order to select the Serial Interface Mode, the PCB pin must be connected to GND.

The remaining connections are similar to a traditional 16×2 LCD. VCC and GND are connected to 5V and ground of the power supply. VO is connected to the wiper of a 10KΩ POT while the other two terminals of the POT are connected to 5V and GND respectively.

I have used the above “The Office” logo. Remember that the resolution of the 128×64 LCD is, well 128×64 pixels. So, the maximum image size should be 128×64. So, using Microsoft Paint, I have brought down the resolution of the above image to 128×64 pixels and also saved it as Monochrome Bitmap Image.

A simple project for interfacing the 128×64 Graphical LCD with Arduino is implemented here. Instead of displaying plain characters, I have displayed a bitmap image on the LCD to show its capability.

NMLCD-M19264C-1is a monochrome graphic LCD 192x64 dot matrix display ,This LCD display is built in with SB0107 IC; it communicates via 6800 8-bit parallel interface; 5.5V power supply and 3.0V negative voltage optional. This NMLCD-M19264C-1 module can be operating at temperatures from -20℃ to +70℃; its storage temperatures range from -30℃ to +80℃.

Answer: For the segment type LCD module, if you need to modify the outline size or display content, we will start the drawing paper for your checking.

NHD-12864WG-BTMI-V#N | Monochrome Graphic Module | 128x64 Pixels | Transmissive LCD | White Backlight | STN (-) Negative Blue Display | Built-in Negative Voltage

Newhaven 128x64 graphic Liquid Crystal Display module shows white pixels on a dark blue background. This transmissive LCD Display requires a backlight for visibility and offers a wide operating temperature range from -20 to 70 degrees Celsius. This NHD-12864WG-BTMI-V#N display includes built-in negative voltage. It has an optimal view of 6:00, operates at 5V supply voltage and is RoHS compliant.

Take 240*128 graphic LCD module for example. There are 240 dots horizontally, 128 dots vertically. Outer dimension 170.0×93.4 mm and active area 120.0×64.0 mm. When you develop a custom dot matrix LCD module, it can be any length and width, resolution, but it takes a lot of time and great efforts to develop it. The most widely used dot matrix LCD modules with specific sizes were made public and it is very convenient for everyone to get them with no tooling fee. You will not have a lot of options when you choose a graphic LCD module, a custom dot matrix LCD module is still your first choice.
