16×2-LCD Module (Green) – India
The 16×2 LCD display module which is very commonly used in various circuits which require text or numerical feedback. It can display 16 characters in 2 lines each. Each character is displayed in a 5×7 pixel matrix. It has a Backlight which can be switched on and off. The contrast of the screen can also be controlled by using a potentiometer. Easy interface with Arduino and other microcontrollers.

Description
Buy online in India, 16×2-LCD Module (Green backlight) with fast shipping, at Circuit Uncle (Home for Robotics / Embedded / IoT components and solutions). The 16×2 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) can display a total of 32 characters in two rows at once. The 16×2-LCD Module could be easily interfaced with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller boards. If you use it with Arduinos you will be able to find a number of libraries in the public domain. The 16×2-LCD Module is very famous among students in India.
The LCD can work in namely two modes: 4-bit and 8-bit. In 4 bit mode, data is sent nibble by nibble, first the upper nibble and then the lower nibble. In 8-bit mode, 8 bits of data are sent directly at once. You might be wondering that why to use the 4-bit mode if we can send the complete data at once with an 8-bit mode. The main reason for this is that, if you use the 8-bit mode you need to utilize microcontroller’s 8 digital i/o pins for that! So if you are working with a microcontroller board that has very fewer pins, e.g., an Arduino Nano, utilizing the 8-bit mode will render you with no pins left to perform other tasks. So in these cases, a 4-bit mode is always preferred.
Pin Configuration of 16×2-LCD Module
| Pin No: | Pin Name: | Description |
| 1 | Vss (Ground) | Ground pin connected to system ground |
| 2 | Vdd (+5 Volt) | Powers the LCD with +5V (4.7V – 5.3V) |
| 3 | VE (Contrast V) | Decides the contrast level of display. Grounded to get maximum contrast. |
| 4 | Register Select | Connected to Microcontroller to shift between command/data register |
| 5 | Read/Write | Used to read or write data. Normally grounded to write data to LCD |
| 6 | Enable | Connected to Microcontroller Pin and toggled between 1 and 0 for data acknowledgment |
| 7 | Data Pin 0 | Data pins 0 to 7 form an 8-bit data line. They can be connected to Microcontroller to send 8-bit data.
These LCDs can also operate on the 4-bit mode in such case Data pin 4,5,6 and 7 will be left free. |
| 8 | Data Pin 1 | |
| 9 | Data Pin 2 | |
| 10 | Data Pin 3 | |
| 11 | Data Pin 4 | |
| 12 | Data Pin 5 | |
| 13 | Data Pin 6 | |
| 14 | Data Pin 7 | |
| 15 | LED Positive | Backlight LED pin positive terminal |
| 16 | LED Negative | Backlight LED pin negative terminal |
