Design and Construction
The module follows the standard 1602 LCD form factor and features a green LED backlight with black characters. Its standard 16-pin configuration provides separate connections for power, contrast, control, data, and backlight.
The integrated HD44780-compatible controller makes the display compatible with commonly available LCD libraries and a wide range of microcontroller platforms.
The module has an approximate overall dimension of 80 × 35 × 9mm, with a viewing area of approximately 64.5 × 16mm.
Working Principle
The LCD receives commands and character data from a microcontroller through its RS, R/W, E, and D0–D7 pins.
The RS pin selects between the instruction and data registers, while the R/W pin controls read or write operations. The E pin enables the LCD to process the supplied command or data. The D0–D7 pins provide the 8-bit data interface.
The V0 pin is used to adjust the contrast of the characters. The integrated green backlight illuminates the display, providing a green background with black characters.
