Review on πŸ”΅ Arduino 8x2 LCD Module: Exceptional White Characters and Vibrant Blue Backlight by Shane Picot

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great little LCD - Single Board Computer

I usually use 16x2 or larger LCDs for my projects, but this time I need something smaller. This works perfectly. It is a pity that there is no further information about this product. It would have saved me some time trying to figure out the wiring. Luckily I was able to find a datasheet. Note: Make sure the potentiometer wiper arm is connected to V0 (pin 3) to adjust the contrast, otherwise you won't see anything on the screen! EDIT: realized I can't post a link to the datasheet. Search Google "LCM0802B-NSW-BBW.pdf".

Pros
  • Module size: 58mm x 32mm
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other models
