I am looking the library for standard LCD display with 44780 |

I am new in programming PIC and I use CCS C Compiler with its IDE. I would like to handle LCD display so I need the library for it unless LCD handling is built-in CCS C IDE? If not, I need the library for it.
Could anyone help me in this?
I appreciate any help and thank you in advance. |

Did you check out the flex_lcd library in the Code Library forum? |

So are we suppose to guess what a '44780' is ???
You should post manufacturer as well as make and model of the 'LCD display'. While most 'LCD display' units conform to some standards, it's all in the details...like timing, power requirements,mode of operation, interface etc.
The 'library' can be simply a few lines of code or a few KB of code.
You also need to tell us which PIC you're using. Again 'details' like VDD are important. While it's child's play to get a 5V LCD to work with a 5V PIC, you need some 'tricks up your sleeve' to get a 3V PIC to interface to the common 5V LCD modules.
edit. looks like 44780 is just a generic number for the HD 2x16 LCD module. So the 'flex' driver will work if you need to use it in '4bit mode' |
