Serial LCD Module
Serial LCD Module
SKU:AXE033-PCB
Superseded by the Serial OLED Module (AXE131) but we do still have discounted stocks of the older AXE033 PCB module (provide your own LCD/OLED screen).
The 'serial interface' PCB fitted with a PICAXE controller chip and may be used with a 16x2 LCD or OLED screen. Module requires soldering to the screen with the supplied headers. An optional DS1307 & CR2032 cell (not included) can be added to give real time clock capabilities.
The on-board PICAXE chip is provided pre-programmed with the open-source firmware which allows this PICAXE chip to act as a 'slave' serial driver for the OLED display. This allows your main project to display text on the serial OLED via simple serout commands, such as -
serout B.7, N2400, ("Hello")
The AXE033 firmware can be accessed by using File, Open Samples in the Programming Editor and selecting the "AXE033 Serial LCD.bas" file.
