Transmissive Yellow LCD 1602 shows 2 lines with 16 black characters on yellow/green background. The integrated yellow/green LED backlight requires 5V and about 40mA for full brightness.

This high-contrast LCD features the standard Hitachi HD44780 display controller (or compatible). An I2C (2-wire) interface adapter is optionally available.

With the optional 2-wire serial interface (I2C, SDA/SCL), the display would only need a total of 4 wire connections (power supply, ground and bus).

This display is supported by the Arduino IDE, using the standard LiquidCrystal and Wire libraries.
