This application note interfaces a midrange PICmicro device to a Hitachi LM032L LCD character display module, with a two line by twenty character display. LCD modules are useful for displaying text information from a system. In large volume applications, the use of custom LCD displays becomes economical. The routines provided should be a good starting point for users whose applications implement a custom LCD. This source code should be compatible with the PIC16C5X devices, after modifications for the special function register initialization, but has not been verified on those devices.The Hitachi LM032L LCD character display module can operate in one of two modes. The first (and default) mode is the 4-bit data interface mode. The second is the 8-bit data interface mode. When operating in 4-bit mode, two transfers per character / co visit page.

COP820CJ - LCD Triplex Drive

There are many applications which use a microcontroller in combination with a Liquid Crystal Display. The normal method to control a LCD panel is to connect it to a special LCD driver device, which receives the display data from a microcontroller. A cheaper solution is to drive the LCD...



LCD Bias and Backup Supply

The LT®1316, a micropower step-up DC/DC converter with peak switch current control, meets these needs. The device draws 33mA quiescent current and contains a 0.6W, 30V switch that can be programmed for a maximum peak current between 30mA and 600mA with an external resistor. It also has a...



2-Wire LCD Interface using PIC16C84

The most popular LCD interface is the Hitachi 44780 based LCD controller chip which provides a fairly easy to work with interface and low power consumption. The major drawback of the interface is the perceived complexity of working with the interface. This perception has been promoted by the lack...



PIC16C5x Microcontrollers as LCD Drivers

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is a thin layer of Liquid Crystal Material deposited between two plates of glass. The raw LCD is often referred to as glass. Electrodes are attached to both sides of the glass. One side is referred to as common or backplane, while the other side is referred...



LCD to a PC Parallel Port

The circuit is pretty simple. The data lines on the LCD match up well with the data lines of the parallel port, and extra parallel port I/O lines can be used to simulate the RS, R/W, and E signals on the LCD. The LCD module is pretty low-lower (with the exception of the backlight), so I found...



LCD to USB interface

LCD2USB is a open source/open hardware project. The goal of LCD2USB is to connect HD44780 based text LCD displays to various PCs via USB. LCD2USB was meant to be cheap and to be made of easily available parts. It is therefore based on the Atmel AVR Mega8 CPU and does not require any difficult to...

The above diagram shows the hook up for a simple serial LCD. This hookup is described in the file lcd.c which comes with the examples provided with CCS. The file is copyrighted and cannot be reproduced here. So, if you have CCS, then read on.



Interface LCD

The circuit in Figure 1 saves I/O pins. It uses an 8051 µC, and only four I/O pins (P1.0 to P1.3) drive the LCD, instead of the 11 pins other displays require. Data transfers in a serial mode through the P1.0 port of the µC. The µC interfaces to Pin 2 of IC1, a 74HCT4094 8-bit shift register....
