The serial lcd is a simple and cost effective solution for interfacing to liquid crystal displays (lcds) based on hd44780 controller. The module takes incoming 9600 bps ttl level signals and display those characters on the lcd screen. Only three wires +5v, gnd and signal are needed to interface to the lcd.

ø rate from any microcontroller
ø contrast adjustment preset
ø backlight can be controlled from software
ø full control of lcd from serial data
ø auto-wrapping of displayed data
ø incoming buffer stores up to 80 characters
ø pulse width modulation of backlight allows direct control of backlight brightness and current consumption
