Character LCD Modules
Standard character modules from 8×2 upwards, with the controller, backlight and viewing angle matched to your design.
Character LCD modules remain the most cost-effective way to show numbers, units and short labels. Our range covers 8×2, 16×1, 16×2, 16×4, 20×2, 20×4, 24×2, 40×2, 40×4 and graphic-character formats such as 122×32, in STN, FSTN and TN with positive or negative display.
Each module is built in COB (chip-on-board) construction with a standard controller, so firmware written for HD44780-compatible displays works without changes. Backlight colour, viewing angle (6 o’clock or 12 o’clock), glass mode and pin definition are all selectable, and custom character sets can be burned on request.
These modules are used in meters, power supplies, industrial controllers, appliances, vending machines and test equipment. With 118 character modules in stock range, most projects can start from a standard part and only adjust the FPC or backlight — which keeps tooling cost and lead time down.
