Graphic LCD4884 Shield For Arduino
Description
This LCD4884 Shield provides 48x48 display. If your project need more information to display, this LCD shield can apparently meet your needs. It is able to display English, Chines, even images. It also integrates a 5 DOF joystick. The shield has 6 Digital IO and 5 Analog IO.
Note:The Arduino in the image is NOT included.
Specification
- Power Supply: 5V
- SPI Interface (using Arduino Digital Pin 2,3,4,5,6)
- One Reset button
- One 5 degree joystick (using Arduino Analog Pin 0)
- Backlit control (Arduino DIO Pin 7)
PinOut
Sample Code
/*
Modified by Amy
version 0.4
Description:
Update the library and sketch to compatible with IDE V1.0 and earlier
Improve the key detection function to be compatible with the Arduino Leonardo
Improve the waitOK function
Move the bit map array to the main code
Any suggestions are welcome.
