types of lcd display for arduino made in china

The Arduino board has a wide variety of compatible displays that you can use in your electronic projects. In most projects, it’s very useful to give the user some sort of feedback from the Arduino.

With the TFT display you can display colorful images or graphics. This module has a resolution of 480 x 320. This module includes the SD card socket and SPI FLASH circuit.

This is a tiny display with just 1 x 0.96 Inch. This display has a black background, and displays characters in white. There are other similar displays that can show the characters in other colors.

I don"t know where the term "PLJ-6LED 2004A" came from since the first half (PLJ-6LED) seems to refer to a 6-digit, 7-segment display that does not show up on the Sainsmart website. The second half (2004A) comes up often since it refers to the 20x4 display size. It doesn"t much matter which one you are using since they are all more or less the same as long as the row of pins is at the upper left (and not the lower left) corner of the pc board.

I assume you mean the "New Liquidcrystal library" which is a replacement for, not an accessory to, the library that comes with the Arduino IDE. You must follow the installation instructions for this library which you can get here. I believe they also come packaged with the library. Basically you have to remove all traces of any other LiquidCrystal libraries for this one to compile.

I assume that you are referring to this ArduinoInfo page, and to the device he calls "I2C LCD DISPLAY VERSION 1:" That tutorial is actually the one I used when I was tinkering with my adapter which looks like that one and also came on a slow boat from the far east, Banggood in my case.

You have to be aware that even though the pc board may be the same there are two different ICs that can be used and they have different base addresses. The "8575 has a base address of 0x20 and the "8575A has a base address of 0x38.

There are also eight different combinations of jumper possibilities for A0, A1 and A2 although they are almost always all pulled high or all pulled low. This leaves four possible addresses of which he mentions only the two that result with the jumpers setting the address pins high (0x27 and 0x3F). If the jumpers set the address pins low you get the base addresses mentioned above.

You also have to deal with the connections between the chip on the IC and the pins that go to the LCD module. These are specific to each pc board and the tutorial gives you the constructor that goes with each of the boards pictured. There is a "guesser" sketch available here if you want to go that route.

What you need is a "genuine" distributor that will provide correct data for the devices that they are selling. You might try Terry"s shop since he went to the trouble of producing that informative tutorial. He used to be a frequent contributor to this forum but I have a feeling he is staying away now to avoid any hint of a conflict of interest.

No, I do not understand why the module does not link all the SPI bus signals on the pcb. It would save 6 external pins. On the other hand, libraries like UTFT and URTouch have no concept of hardware SPI or bus.

Both those displays say they have an SPI interface, so that is how you connect them to the Arduino. But that is only the start, you then need to drive them with software. The thing to look at here is the IC that they mention. In the case of the 240 by 160 this is the ST7586. If you are lucky then someone might have written a libiary to drive them. Otherwise you will have to go through the data sheet and see if you can figure out how to do it.

Note that the way this is normally done is to write routines that modify a block of memory in the Arduino and then dump that block of memory to the display. In the case of 240 by 160 this will require at least 4800 bytes:- ( 240 * 160 ) / 8, for one bit per pixel, which is more than the 2K of a Uno and half of the available memory in a Mega.

If you get a display from an Arduino savvy vendor, there is likely to be a libiary to drive it because it is in their interest to supply one. Of course you pay for this in a higher price for the display but it will work. However these libraries will still be heavy on the memory, as yours will have to be if you write your own.

If you are here you are also searching for help for some project sometime! So don"t answer anything when you don"t know what you are talking about. and no you didn"t find anything, now stop saying bullshit!

I took a look at your link and found a 480x72 lcd display, but the text is in German, I think. I found an English version, but it didn"t really contain much useful info. What info I did find says that display uses ILI6480BQ LCD driver chip. So, I"m thinking to make use of that LCD, the 40 pin flat flexible cable needs to be plugged into an ILI6480BQ driver.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (2.8" diagonal) bright (4 white-LED ...

The bottom view of that shield shows a 40 pin connector with a flexible cable plugged into it. That is probably the style connector you would need to hook the cable into. Then the connector is wired up to the driver chip & it"s supporting components. The driver chip is a SMD and the supporting components are as well. So you"d need a custom designed PCB, the components, and then assemble it.

I have the shield I posted the link to and it works flawlessly, but it"s expensive. Cheap china made LCD displays can be found for around $10, but the supporting hardware will vary. I have one of those and have spent a bit of time just getting it up and running.

I recently got a new LCD TFT Display Shield and when I try anything it only shows white! I can use the touchscreen library with no problems and can get coordinates but i can"t show anything on the display! I just tried with the ADAFRUIT library and another one called TFTLCD.

I presume that different display modules appear on the Chinese surplus market when phone models change production. They just get soldered to the universal pcb and the item sold on Ebay as Shields.

I have a project I"ve been thinking about for awhile that requires an oval shaped LCD panel, and finally managed to track down and receive a Chinese cell phone with an oval panel that fits the bill. (actual oval not a beveled/obfuscated rectangle) Basically I want to remove the LCD panel and put it in a custom housing, and have something drive it to display a video feed. Now that I actually have the thing in my hand, I realize that I"m completely over my head in terms of making it work.

Is this even going to be possible without having the diagram/pins? Could it be reverse engineered? Are there generic controllers that work for most LCDs or are they specialized per panel? If I take the phone apart would there be a possibility of a manufacture/part stamp or are these things typically unlabeled? Does anyone know of a manufacture that provides oval panels as a kit? Any kind of starting point is apprecaited, and I plan on hitting the San Jose Arduino meeting this month if anyone here is local.

I want to purchase this LCD Graphic LCD 128x64 STN LED Backlight - LCD-00710 - SparkFun Electronics, but it needs to be VERY readable in bright sunlight. I will use big letters on the display, so, I should be able to get good contrast.

So :), can somebody do me a huge favour and take your display outside in bright sunlight, I mean desert sunlight! and take a few pictures at different viewing angles.

Today, among the various projects with Arduino used in the market, those that involve integration with LCD displays for the display of information stand out.

In this case, the I2C module needs to be connected to the display to have all its communication reduced to four wires: two for power and two for signal.

In order not to make a mistake in the numbering of the pinout, it is important to carefully observe the characteristics of each pin and their locations on the Arduino.

Meanwhile, pin 5 (R/W), connected to GND, demonstrates the read and write signal of the display, and pin 6 (E) serves to enable or disable the signal.

In addition, pins 15 (LED+) and 16 (LED-) will be responsible for supplying power to the LEDs at the bottom of the display. It is possible to connect pin 15 using:Using 2 resistors of 220 ohms in parallel;

With the proper connections, it"s time to program the Arduino by connecting it to the computer and opening the official Arduino IDE in its updated version.

Furthermore, despite being highly efficient, LCD technology is not new to the market, which lowers its cost in relation to other displays with similar benefits.
