Looking for Serial adaptor to add to VFD / LCD displays

Don M

I found this one: http://store.melabs.com/prod/parts/SLCDC.html

Anyone know of anything else like it or ideas? Needs to be asynchronous TTL serial (not I2C). I like the one on the back of the Parallax Serial LCD displays but don't know if they can be purchased separately.

Thanks.

I once suggested in a thread (a long time ago) that Parallax sell the board separately , but nothing came of it. I don't really like those yellow-green back lights.

A popular board is the K107, based on the PIC program by P.H. Anderson:

Look for Professor Anderson's kits here:

Any VFD you use needs to be compatible with the HD44780, I'm pretty sure Noritake and Newhaven make some.

Rick- Thanks. I ordered some from Wulfden.
