LCD Modules

Serial LCD  Module

The SerLCD v2.5 module is the latest serial LCD module from Spark Fun Electronics that incorporates many new features. The SerLCD backpack takes care of all the HD44780 commands allowing seamless integration with any micro that can communicate over a wide range of TTL serial baud rates. The SerLCD v2.5 has the ability to drive up to 1A directly for backlight control or as a general purpose high-power control pin.

SerLCD v2.5 currently supports 16 and 20 character wide screens with 2 or 4 lines of display. Contrast control is implemented through a trim pot on the module. Comes with 3-pin screw terminal shown on right.

Features:

* New PIC 16F688 utilizes onboard UART for greater communication accuracy
* Adjustable baud rates of 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 14400, 19200 and 38400
* Operational Backspace
* Greater processing speed at 8MHz
* Incoming buffer stores up to 80 characters
* Backlight transistor can handle up to 1A
* Pulse width modulation of backlight allows direct control of backlight brightness and current consumption
* All surface mount design allows a backpack that is half the size of the original
* Faster boot-up time
* Boot-up display can be turned on/off via firmware
* User definable splash screen

Color LCD 128x128 Nokia Knock-Off with carrier board
Description: Finally! Color LCDs you can afford and play with This 128x128 mini color LCD is a perfect match for your next portable application.

What SFE found over in China is a 'copy' of the Nokia LCD found in models 6100, 6610, 7210, 7250, and 5100? We don't know what phones it fits, and we don't really care. This inexpensive LCD comes with a powerful white LED backlight and a relatively simple serial interface. It's a 9-bit interface, so beware. But we were able to get the LCD up and running on a LPC2138 with a few hours worth of work.

Please note: This LCD is meant to replace a broken screen in a cell phone. The connector (both on the LCD and on the PCB) was not designed for multiple attachment/detachment. Please secure your LCD is place with double stick tape to prevent stress on these connectors. This LCD is small! Please see the comparative photos. With that said, it is still superbly readable at arms length (cell phone technology).

A carrier board is included with the LCD so you do not have to do the fine soldering to the LCD.

Frame Dimensions: 1.35x1.58"
Active Display Dimensions: 1.2"x1.2"

Features:

* LCD Logic - 3.3V @ 2-3mA
* LED Backlight - 7V @ 40-50mA (very bright)
* Full 4,096 Color Display
* Uses the Epson S1D15G10 Compatible Controller
