We have already interfaced 16x2 LCD with 8051, AVR, Arduino etc. JHD162 is 16x2 LCD Module characters LCD. 16x2 LCD has 32 characters in total, 16 in 1 st line and another 16 in 2 nd line. So here we are going for 16x2 LCD display, you can even use 16x1 LCD if you want. Graphic LCD is more complex than 16x2 LCD. There are different types of LCDs in the market. This screen will come in handy to display sensor values, interrupt status and also for displaying time. We will write a program in PYTHON to send the appropriate commands to the LCD through GPIO and display the needed characters on its screen. We will connect the LCD to GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) pins of PI to display characters on it. In this tutorial, we will Control a 16x2 LCD Display using Raspberry Pi. By the end of this Raspberry Pi Tutorial Series, you will be able to do high profile projects by yourself.
In each tutorial we will discuss one of functions of PI. We will be covering all the basic functionalities of Raspberry Pi in these tutorials. With higher processor speed and 1 GB RAM, the PI can be used for many high profile projects like Image processing and IoT.įor doing any of high profile projects, one need to understand the basic functions of PI. The PI is one of most trusted project development platforms out there now. Raspberry Pi is an ARM architecture processor based board designed for electronic engineers and hobbyists.
