The HD44780 module provides support for common alphanumeric character LCDs using Hitachis HD44780 and compatible controllers.

Pinning

Direct

The following example maps the LCD pins to AVR port pins found on the 25 pin Sub-D connector of the Pollin AVR Net-IO board:

 * HD44780-Display über PCF8574 ansteuern.
 * Belegung Pollin Add-On-Board:
 *
 * Pin PCF8574 Pin am LCD
 * 4 (P0) -> 11 (DB4)
 * 5 (P1) -> 12 (DB5)
 * 6 (P2) -> 13 (DB6)
 * 7 (P3) -> 14 (DB7)
 * 9 (P4) -> 4 (RS)
 * 10 (P5) -> 5 (R/W) nicht benutzt !
 * 11 (P6) -> 6 (EN)
 * 12 (P7) -> 15 (Beleuchtung)
 *
 * Die LCD-Beleuchtung an Pin 12 wird über einen
 * PNP-Transistor geschaltet.
 * Beleuchtung an: Bit 7=0
 * Beleuchtung aus: Bit 7=1
 * Die Address-Eingänge A0 bis A2 des PCF8574 liegen alle auf GND.
 * Die Basis-Addresse des Chips ist daher immer 0x20.
