= Attaching a 16x2 LCD via I2C
|
|
|
|
This example code shows how to interface the Raspberry Pi Pico to one of the very common 16x2 LCD character displays. The display will need a 3.3V I2C adapter board as this example uses I2C for communications.
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
======
|
|
These LCD displays can also be driven directly using GPIO without the use of an adapter board. That is beyond the scope of this example.

== Wiring information
|
|
|
|
Wiring up the device requires 4 jumpers, to connect VCC (3.3v), GND, SDA and SCL. The example here uses I2C port 0, which is assigned to GPIO 4 (SDA) and 5 (SCL) in software. Power is supplied from the 3.3V pin.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: Many displays of this type are 5v. If you wish to use a 5v display you will need to use level shifters on the SDA and SCL lines to convert from the 3.3V used by the RP2040. Whilst a 5v display will just about work at 3.3v, the display will be dim.
