Standard LCD 16x2 + extras (white on blue)

Standard HD44780 LCDs are useful for creating standalone projects.

* 16 characters wide, 2 rows

* White text on blue background

* Connection port is 0.1" pitch, single row for easy breadboarding and wiring

* Pins are documented on the back of the LCD to assist in wiring it up

* Single LED backlight included can be dimmed easily with a resistor or PWM and uses much less power than LCD with EL (electroluminescent) backlights

* Can be fully controlled with only 6 digital lines! (Any analog/digital pins can be used)

* Built in character set supports English/Japanese text, see the HD44780 datasheet for the full character set

* Up to 8 extra characters can be created for custom glyphs or 'foreign' language support

* Comes with necessary contrast potentiometer and strip of header
