  • Controller/Driver: HD44780 or equivalent
  • Operating voltage: 4.5 V to 5.5 V
  • Backlight: Green LED (typical)
  • Interface: Parallel (4-bit or 8-bit)
  • Character size: ~5.00 mm x 8.00 mm
  • Module size: typically ~80 mm x 36 mm x 10 mm (varies by model)
  • Operating temperature: -20°C to +70°C

Applications

  • DIY electronics and maker projects
  • Embedded system status displays and user interfaces
  • Industrial control panels for real-time data and error messages
  • Home automation displays for temperature, humidity and alerts
  • Educational kits and microcontroller learning tools
  • Consumer devices such as clocks, meters and portable instruments

Getting Started with Arduino and Raspberry Pi

Wiring the 16×2 LCD is straightforward. Use the 4-bit mode to save I/O pins on Arduino or use an I2C/serial backpack for even simpler connections. Typical steps:

  • Connect VCC to 5V and GND to ground.
  • Adjust the potentiometer for contrast control.
  • Connect RS, RW, E and data lines (D4-D7 for 4-bit mode) to your microcontroller pins.
  • Use standard libraries (LiquidCrystal for Arduino, compatible Python libraries for Raspberry Pi) and the HD44780 instruction set to initialize and write text.

Why Choose This 16×2 LCD Module?

This module offers a dependable balance of readability, compatibility and power efficiency. Its HD44780 compatibility and standard pinout mean you can quickly add a display to prototypes and finished products without complex drivers. The green backlight enhances legibility while maintaining low energy usage.
