Your LCD display should have 16 pins coming out from the bottom. The LCD display needs 6 arduino pins, all set to be digital outputs. It also needs ground and 5v ...

The most popular display system widely used in Arduino projects is the liquid crystal display (LCD). LCD displays consists primarily of two sheets of polarized glass plates with a thin layer of liquid ...

One of the limitations of the small 8 bit microcontrollers like the Atmel ATMega family adopted by the Arduino board, is the reduced number of I/O ports. Among the main advantages of these ...

Seven-segment displays and monochrome LCDs are fine for most projects, but some things simply look better in color. [John] over at the Little Bird Electronics blog recently wrote up a tutorial ...

This one’s a bit abstract. Remember those LCD games that became quite popular sometime in the 1990’s? You know, the ones that had only one game, usually a character that could be moved back and forth ...
