HC595 LCD Serial Interface Module

Description

Features:

• use any GPIO to drive the LCD so you can use the I2C pins in other functions.
• small form factor to be used in the back of all Character LCD type ie 16×2,16×4 and 20×4.
• only two pins need (Data,clock) and this will be configurable in your code.
• regular POT to adjust LCD’s Contrast.
• simple Arduino Lib like normal LCD lib functions also can be ported to other compiler.
• download the Arduino Library from this link

Sample Arduino Code:

//Example written by UGE Technical Team @uge-one.com

#include <Wire.h>

#include <LiquidCrystal_SR.h>

LiquidCrystal_SR lcd(8,7,TWO_WIRE);

//                   | |

//                   | — Clock Pin

//                   —- Data/Enable Pin

void setup(){

  lcd.begin(16,2);               // initialize the lcd

  lcd.home ();                   // go home

  lcd.print(“LiquidCrystal_SR”);

}

void loop(){

  // set the cursor to column 0, line 1

  // (note: line 1 is the second row, since counting begins with 0):

  lcd.setCursor(0, 1);

  // print the number of seconds since reset:

  lcd.print(millis() / 1000);

}
