It"s not a stupid question. I would have thought it most unlikely that they share pins. I have never seen an SDF/RTC combination but every clock module I have seen uses I2C bus and I have never seen an SD module that does.

This module is engineered for high volume production. It uses a "TAB" (tape automated bonding) or "COF" (chip on flex) style flex tail mated with a "COG" (chip on glass) display. The TAB connector is soldered directly to corresponding pads on your PCB using a hot-bar soldering machine. High volume contract manufacturers will be familiar with this type of construction and its assembly methods. Hot-bar soldering machines designed for prototype, rework or repair of TAB connections are available from equipment suppliers at reasonable cost.

The Serial Monitor is a convenient way to view data from an Arduino, but what if you want to make your project portable and view sensor values without access to a computer? Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are excellent for displaying a string of words or sensor data.

This guide will help you in getting your 16×2 character LCD up and running, as well as other character LCDs (such as 16×4, 16×1, 20×4, etc.) that use Hitachi’s LCD controller chip, the HD44780.

As the name suggests, these LCDs are ideal for displaying only characters. A 16×2 character LCD, for example, can display 32 ASCII characters across two rows.

Character LCDs are available in a variety of sizes and colors, including 16×1, 16×4, 20×4, white text on a blue background, black text on a green background, and many more.

One advantage of using any of these displays in your project is that they are “swappable,” meaning that you can easily replace them with another LCD of a different size or color. Your code will need to be tweaked slightly, but the wiring will remain the same!

Before we get into the hookup and example code, let’s check out the pinout. A standard character LCD has 16 pins (except for an RGB LCD, which has 18 pins).

Vo (LCD Contrast) pin controls the contrast of the LCD. Using a simple voltage divider network and a potentiometer, we can make precise contrast adjustments.

RS (Register Select) pin is used to separate the commands (such as setting the cursor to a specific location, clearing the screen, etc.) from the data. The RS pin is set to LOW when sending commands to the LCD and HIGH when sending data.

R/W (Read/Write) pin allows you to read data from or write data to the LCD. Since the LCD is only used as an output device, this pin is typically held low. This forces the LCD into WRITE mode.

E (Enable) pin is used to enable the display. When this pin is set to LOW, the LCD ignores activity on the R/W, RS, and data bus lines; when it is set to HIGH, the LCD processes the incoming data.

The LCD has two separate power connections: one for the LCD (pins 1 and 2) and one for the LCD backlight (pins 15 and 16). Connect LCD pins 1 and 16 to GND and 2 and 15 to 5V.

Depending on the manufacturer, some LCDs include a current-limiting resistor for the backlight. It is located on the back of the LCD, close to pin 15. If your LCD does not contain this resistor or if you are unsure whether it does, you must add one between 5V and pin 15. It should be safe to use a 220 ohm resistor, although a value this high may make the backlight slightly dim. For better results, check the datasheet for the maximum backlight current and choose an appropriate resistor value.

Let’s connect a potentiometer to the display. This is necessary to fine-tune the contrast of the display for best visibility. Connect one side of the 10K potentiometer to 5V and the other to Ground, and connect the middle of the pot (wiper) to LCD pin 3.

That’s all. Now, turn on the Arduino. You will see the backlight light up. As you turn the potentiometer knob, you will see the first row of rectangles appear. If you have made it this far, Congratulations! Your LCD is functioning properly.

We know that data is sent to the LCD via eight data pins. However, HD44780-based LCDs are designed so that we can communicate with them using only four data pins (in 4-bit mode) rather than eight (in 8-bit mode). This helps us save 4 I/O pins!

The sketch begins by including the LiquidCrystal library. This library comes with the Arduino IDE and allows you to control Hitachi HD44780 driver-based LCD displays.

Next, an object of the LiquidCrystal class is created by passing as parameters the pin numbers to which the LCD’s RS, EN, and four data pins are connected.

In the setup, two functions are called. The first function is begin(). It is used to initialize the interface to the LCD screen and to specify the dimensions (columns and rows) of the display. If you’re using a 16×2 character LCD, you should pass 16 and 2; if you’re using a 20×4 LCD, you should pass 20 and 4.

In the loop, the print() function is used to print “Hello world!” to the LCD. Please remember to use quotation marks " " around the text. There is no need for quotation marks when printing numbers or variables.

The function setCursor() is then called to move the cursor to the second row. The cursor position specifies where you want the new text to appear on the LCD. It is assumed that the upper left corner is col=0 and row=0.

There are many useful functions you can use with LiquidCrystal Object. Some of them are listed below:lcd.home() function positions the cursor in the upper-left of the LCD without clearing the display.

lcd.scrollDisplayRight() function scrolls the contents of the display one space to the right. If you want the text to scroll continuously, you have to use this function inside a for loop.

lcd.scrollDisplayLeft() function scrolls the contents of the display one space to the left. Similar to the above function, use this inside a for loop for continuous scrolling.

lcd.display() function turns on the LCD display, after it’s been turned off with noDisplay(). This will restore the text (and cursor) that was on the display.

The CGROM stores the font that appears on a character LCD. When you instruct a character LCD to display the letter ‘A’, it needs to know which dots to turn on so that we see an ‘A’. This data is stored in the CGROM.

CGRAM is an additional memory for storing user-defined characters. This RAM is limited to 64 bytes. Therefore, for a 5×8 pixel LCD, only 8 user-defined characters can be stored in CGRAM, whereas for a 5×10 pixel LCD, only 4 can be stored.

Creating custom characters has never been easier! We’ve developed a small application called Custom Character Generator. Can you see the blue grid below? You can click on any pixel to set or clear that pixel. And as you click, the code for the character is generated next to the grid. This code can be used directly in your Arduino sketch.

After including the library and creating the LCD object, custom character arrays are defined. The array consists of 8 bytes, with each byte representing a row in a 5×8 matrix.

The first part of this three-part series discussed common touchscreen technologies and their typical use-cases. Then, the second part investigated a few readily available and affordable touch display options for makers and hobbyists. This article documents how to get started with one of the recommended Arduino-compatible 2.8” resistive touchscreens from part two.

The TFT display I use contains a resistive overlay, which allows users to control an Arduino-based project with touch inputs. The display controller that comes with the touchscreen supports a few different communication methods. However, I’ll only outline two of them as I find these to be the most useful. The first method uses eight parallel communication lines to transmit pixel data from the Arduino to the display. I recommend using this method in multimedia applications where the Arduino needs to transfer a lot of pixel data.

The second method involves using SPI to communicate with the display controller. Doing so saves a few digital I/O lines with the tradeoff of being slower than the parallel communication method. To enable the display’s SPI mode, you have to close these three solder pad jumpers on the bottom side of the board:

Note that I used the SPI method to send data from the Arduino to the display. Either way, in addition to the pixel data lines, you’ll further need to employ two additional digital I/O lines and two more analog pins of the Arduino if you want to add resistive touch detection to your project. In addition, this touchscreen module comes with a built-in micro SD card reader I won’t discuss further in this article.

You have to install two libraries before you can send image data to the TFT display. First, use the Arduino IDE’s built-in library manager to download the Adafruit ILI9341 library. This package handles low-level communication between the Arduino and the display controller IC. Then, download the Adafruit_GFX library. The second library contains helpful code for drawing graphics primitives such as simple shapes and text. I recommend you read this article if you don’t know how to use the library manager in the Arduino IDE.

To use the resistive touch capabilities of this display, download the Adafruit_TouchScreen library using the Arduino IDE’s built-in library manager. The example code from above prints a few lines of text and then draws two touch buttons. Next, we’ll have to detect when a user presses one of the buttons. If that happens, the Arduino should refresh the screen and draw all the components using different colors. Therefore, I added the following method to detect whether a user touched one of the buttons:

Before making the previously discussed calls to the various draw-functions, the loop() method also checks whether the user touched the resistive screen. The TSPoint class contains a z-value we can use to determine how hard a user pressed down on the screen. This z-value is also perfect for preventing the Arduino from detecting unwanted inputs. If the z-value is greater than a fixed threshold value, the Arduino detects a touch input. The code then calls the touchedWithin()-function to determine whether the user pressed one of the buttons.

Arduino-compatible touchscreens allow you to quickly add a touchscreen to your existing or new DIY projects. Simple-to-use libraries let you get the display up and running in practically no time. The screen I used offers a few ways for devices to send pixel data to it. A parallel interface allows you to achieve higher screen refresh rates, which might be essential in multimedia applications. The parallel interface is also perfect for MCUs with a large number of I/O pins. The SPI method, on the other hand, is a bit slower compared to parallel communication. It, however, allows you to cut down on the number of required I/O pins, which is the preferred option in most Arduino projects.
