If you want to add some visual output to your Arduino projects, you’ll need a display. If you need only little to display, the 20X4 LCD2004 Display with I2C Interface Module is a quite good solution.
This is 20x4 LCD Display that provides a simple and cost-effective solution that is very easy to interface with Arduino or Other Microcontrollers.. The display is 20 character by 4 line display has a very clear and high contrast white text upon a blue background/backlight. This is a great blue backlight LCD display. It is fantastic for Arduino based project.
This display overcomes the drawback of 20x4 LCD Display in which you’ll waste about 8 Pins on your Arduino for the display to get working. Luckily in this product, an I2C adapter is directly soldered right onto the pins of the display. So all you need to connect are the I2C pins, which shows a good library and little of coding.
The I2C is a type of serial bus which uses two bidirectional lines, called SDA (Serial Data Line) and SCL (Serial Clock Line). Both must be connected via pulled-up resistors. The usage voltages are standard as 5V and 3.3V.
These modules are currently supplied with a default I2C address of either 0x27 or 0x3F. To determine which version you have check the black I2C adaptor board on the underside of the module. If there a 3 sets of pads labelled A0, A1, & A2 then the default address will be 0x3F. If there are no pads the default address will be 0x27.
On previous tutorials on our website, we have covered the use of several displays, LCDs, and TFTs, with diverse Arduino boards. From Nokia 5110 LCD display to different types of OLEDs, the reason for the tutorials has been to ensure that, as a reader, you know how to use many of the most popular displays so this help you make the best choice when trying to select the perfect display for your project. For today’s tutorial, we will continue in that line and examine how to use the 20×4 I2C Character LCD Display with Arduino.
The 20×4 LCD display is essentially a bigger (increased number of rows and columns) version of the 16×2 LCD display with which we have built several projects. The display has room to display 20 columns of characters on 4 rows which makes it perfect for displaying a large amount of text without scrolling. Each of the columns has a resolution of 5×8 pixels which ensures its visibility from a substantial distance. Asides its size, the interesting thing about this version of the display being used for today’s tutorial is the fact that it communicates via I2C, which means we will only require 2 wires asides GND and VCC to connect the display to the Arduino. This is possible via the Parallel to I2C module coupled to the display as shown in picture below. The I2C module can also be bought individually, and coupled to the 16 pins version of the display.
To demonstrate how to use this display, we will build a real-time clock which will display date and time on the LCD. To generate and keep track of date and time, we will use the DS3231 Real time clock. We covered the use of the DS3231 RTC module in the tutorial on DS3231 based Real-time Clock, you can check it out to learn more about its use with the Arduino.
The exact component used for this tutorial can be bought via the links attached and the power bank is only required to run the Arduino when not connected to the computer. You can replace this with a 9V battery and a center-positive power jack.
Since the display and the real-time clock are both I2C devices, they will be connected to the same pins on the Arduino. For the Arduino Uno, the I2C pins are located on Pin A5 (SCL) and A4 (SDA). This may differ on any of the other Arduino boards. Connect the components as shown in the schematics below;
To write the code for this project, we will use three main libraries; the DS1307 Library to easily interface with the DS3231 module, the liquid crystal I2C library to easily interface with the LCD display, and the Wire library for I2C communication. While the Wire library comes built into the Arduino IDE, the other two libraries can be downloaded and installed via the links attached to them.
As mentioned during the introduction, our task for today is to obtain time and date information from the RTC module and display on the LCD. As usual, I will do a breakdown of the code and try to explain some of the concepts within it that may be difficult to understand.
We start the code by including the libraries that will be used. After which we create an object of the Liquid crystal library, with the I2C address of the LCD as an argument. The I2C address can be obtained from the seller or as described in our tutorial on using the 16×2 LCD display to ESP32.
Next, we create a set of variables which comprises of byte arrays that represent custom characters to be created and displayed. The custom characters are usually 5pixels in width and 8 pixels in height, representing each box in the rows or columns of the LCD. The byte array represents which pixels of the box to be turned on or off.
Next, we write the void setup function and start by initializing the library using the lcd.begin() function, with the first argument representing the number of columns, and the second argument representing the number of rows. After this, the CreateCustomCharacters() function is called to convert the char variables created above into characters that can be displayed on the LCD. One of the characters created is then used to create a UI/frame which is displayed using the printFrame() function.
The idea behind the voidloop function is simple. We create a variable “tm” to hold time elements and then call the RTC.read() function such that its response is stored in tm. This is all done within an if statement which prints the time and date value stored in tm, if a response is received from the rtc. If a response is not received, the else statement is executed.
The first function is the printTime() which breaks down the time data stored in the “tm” variable to extract seconds, minutes and hour values. These values are then displayed on the LCD using the lcd.print() function.
The printDate function is similar to the printTime function. It extracts date information from the variable tm and uses the lcd.print() function to display it.
The printFrame() function, on the other hand, was used to create a sort of user interface for the project. it makes use of the characters created above. Each of the custom characters created is displayed using the lcd.write(byte(x)) function with x being the character number of the character to be displayed. The characters are positioned on the LCD using the lcd.setCursor() function which takes numbers representing the column and row on which the character is to be displayed, as arguments.
Different projects, come with different screen requirements. If you need to display a large amount of information and the size is not a constraint, the 20×4 I2C display is definitely one of the options you should consider.
LCD Display Module I2C 20x4 Blue Arduino - If your current LCD is frustrating you because it occupies all your GPIO pins and lacks characters" space, it is time to replace it with this one. This LCD Display Module uses an I2C communication interface, which only needs 2 wires to display information on any microcontroller-based project, including the Arduino. It is capable of displaying 4 lines of 20 white characters on a blue background. Moreover, it is compatible with either 3.3V or 5V logic systems, which is basically everything in programmable electronics.
A regular LCD is substantially more difficult to connect than an I2C LCD. Instead of 12, only 4 pins must be connected. Start by connecting the GND pin to the ground and the VCC pin to the Arduino"s 5V output. The I2C communication pins are all that is left at this point. Keep in mind that the I2C pins on each Arduino board vary and must be linked appropriately. The SDA (data line) and SCL (clock line) are located on the pin headers close to the AREF pin on Arduino boards with the R3 configuration. They also go by the names A5 (SCL) and A4 (SDA).
To power, the LCD, connect the Arduino"s USB port. The backlight will be visible lighting up. You will now begin to see the first row of rectangles as you adjust the potentiometer"s knob. Congratulations if that occurs! Your LCD is operational. After completing this, we can begin programming the LCD.
You must first install a library called LiquidCrystal I2C to drive an I2C LCD. The LiquidCrystal library that comes with your Arduino IDE has been improved by this library.
You can narrow your search by entering "liquid-crystal." Several entries ought to be present. Look for Frank de Brabander"sLiquidCrystal I2C library. Select Install after clicking that entry.
As was already said, the manufacturer determines the LCD"s I2C address. The default I2C address for LCDs powered by Texas Instruments PCF8574 chips is 0x27Hex. The default I2C address for LCDs powered by NXP Semiconductors" PCF8574 chip is 0x3FHex.
Therefore, your LCD"s I2C address is most likely 0x27Hex or 0x3FHex. However, it is advised that you ascertain the LCD"s precise I2C address before utilizing it. Fortunately, there is a simple method for doing this, due to Nick Gammon.
A straightforward I2C scanner sketch created by Nick scans your I2C bus and gives the addresses of each I2C device it encounters. Launch your Serial Monitor after loading this sketch onto your Arduino. You get to see the I2C address of your I2C LCD.
