This is a 20x4 Arduino compatible LCD display module with high speed I2C interface. It is able to display 20x4 characters on two lines, whitecharacterson blue background.
Generally, LCD display will run out of Arduino pin resource. It needs 6 digital pins and 2 power pin for a LCD display. If you want to build a robot project, it will be a problem with Arduino UNO and LCD display.
This I2C 20x4 LCD display module is designed for Arduino microcontroller. It is using I2C communication interface, With this I2C interface, only 2 lines (I2C) are required to display the information on any Arduino based projects. It will save at least 4 digital / analog pins on Arduino. All connector are standard XH2.54 (Breadboard type). You can connect it with jumper wire directly.
This 1602 LCD module has 8 I2C address in all, from 0x20 to 0x27. You can set one according to your requirements, avoiding the confliction of I2C address. And its contrast can be adjusted manually.
LCD modules are very commonly used in most embedded projects, the reason being its cheap price, availability, and programmer-friendly. Most of us would have come across these displays in our day to day life, either at PCO’s or calculators. Alphanumeric Graphical LCD (2004A) is a 20x4 Blue Coloured Liquid Crystal Display. It can display 4 lines of text and each line can have up to 20 characters in it, which is bigger than the 16x2 LCD displaybut the programming is almost same. These characters can either be text, numbers, graphical symbols or even custom characters. It can be used in DIY projects, to display the data on IoT projects, etc.
We know that each character has 40 Pixels and for 80 Characters we will have 3200 Pixels. Further, the LCD should also be instructed about the Position of the Pixels. It is a hectic task for the microcontroller, hence Driver IC like ST7066 is used, which is mounted on the backside of the LCD Module.it takes data from the Microcontroller and processes them to display on the LCD Screen. You can use it in 8 bit parallel interface or 4 bit parallel interface mode if you need to connect fewer lines to the microcontroller.
There are not many differences between the two LCD screens apart from the obvious one that 16*2 can display only 32 characters and 20*4 can display 80 characters. So you have to choose the display according to your needs. If you need a display to show a lot of data then go for 20*4 size and if there is not too much of data to display then go for 16*2 LCD. It also depends on the packaging size of your project. If space is at a premium then go for smaller sized 16*2 else its 20*4.
The Displaytech 204G series is a lineup of 20x4 character LCD modules. These modules have a 98x60 mm outer dimension with 77x25.2 mm viewing area on the display. The 204G 20x4 LCD displays are available in STN or FSTN LCD modes with or without an LED backlight. The backlight color options include yellow green, white, blue, pure green, or amber color.

As we all know, though LCD and some other displays greatly enrich the man-machine interaction, they share a common weakness. When they are connected to a controller, multiple IOs will be occupied of the controller which has no so many outer ports. Also it restricts other functions of the controller. Therefore, LCD2004 with an I2C bus is developed to solve the problem.
I2C bus is a type of serial bus invented by PHLIPS. It is a high performance serial bus which has bus ruling and high or low speed device synchronization function required by multiple host system. I2C bus has only two bidirectional signal lines, Serial Data Line (SDA) and Serial Clock Line (SCL). The blue potentiometer on the I2C LCD2004 is used to adjust backlight to make it easier to display on the I2C LCD2004.
