4.7 LCD Display
For more complex visualization, a two-row, 16 character dot matrix, LCD (without backlight) with
KS0066 controller/driver is provided on the DB54.
This is an easy way to interface 5V technology and expand the I/O capabilities of the SC23.
The LCD is interfaced to an I2C port expander to the SC23 and uses the 4-bit mode. The I2C address
of the LCD interface is 74hex.
Sample programs for handling the LCD can be obtained from the BECK IPC website.
