Included on a single board is a 16x2 LCD and an embedded circuit based around a PIC 16F88. The on-board PIC takes a TTL serial input and prints the characters it receives onto the LCD. The installed firmware also allows for a number of special commands so you can clear the screen, adjust the backlight brightness, turn the display on/off, and more. Communication with SerLCD requires 5V TTL serial at a default baud rate of 9600bps (8-N-1). You can adjust the baud to any standard rate between 2400 and 38400bps. The power (VDD), ground (GND) and RX pins are all broken out to both a 0.1" pitch header as well as a 3-pin JST connector. SerLCD has the ability to dim the backlight to conserve power if needed. There is also a potentiometer on the back of the display to adjust the contrast. Features: • Embedded PIC 16F88 utilizes onboard UART for greater communication accuracy • Adjustable baud rates of 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 14400, 19200 and 38400 • Operational Backspace • Greater processing speed at 10MHz • Incoming buffer stores up to 80 characters • Backlight transistor can handle up to 1A • Pulse width modulation of backlight allows direct control of backlight brightness and current consumption • All surface mount design allows a backpack that is half the size of the original • Faster boot-up time Page 2 of 2 • Boot-up display can be turned on/off via firmware • User definable splash screen Dimensions: • PCB: 103x36mm • LCD: 71.4x26.4mm https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9395 11/11/2015
