Hello and first question. Anshan Yes YM162-04 LCD
Greetings everyone,
After deciding to dive in to the world of Basic Stamp, projects that
were in my mind and seem impossible suddenly became a
possibility... [noparse]:)[/noparse] Being a mechanical engineer, I always felt the
lack of, I would say finish, on my projects since things dont move
with out a brain. Stamp is a nice way to get things going since I do
not need to learn complicated computer languages.
Anyways let me get to the question without boring you to death. I am
working on a project where I want to information recieved to be
dumped to the LCD, well first I need to get it hooked up [noparse];)[/noparse]
I bought an Anshan Yes Lcd 2x16 1/16 duty 1/5 bias (what that means I
have no clue) I found their web site (web ferret finds everything)
and I still can not figure out what this thing is. they have given
the outputs and I am just speculating which ones are whick since they
are not labeled.
And can someone tell me how I can understand if this thing has a
driver on it or not.
I know, I know, I should just go and get the lcd that works [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Pleasure to be apart of the stamp world [noparse];)[/noparse]
Cheers everyone.

it work on Parallax's site, and I also have a few examples at
http://www.lennard.net.nz/ (click on circuit ideas, then under displays
click on "How to drive an Hitachi HD44780 based LCD display").

If so, it is likely it is a HD44780 based LCD display, and will therefore
follow the standard pinouts as mentioned in the url theat - opps soory -er

Sounds li9ke it is a HD44780 based display. BTW: 9 = error - opps...
I'd check out the following url before you apply any power:
http://home.iae.nl/users/pouweha/lcd/lcd0.shtml
It was the first url I visited in order to get me going with my 2 x 20
display...
Proved very useful (which is why I've linke dit in my web page...)
*HIC!*
Ben, Werrington, New Sheeeeeealand.
BTW: Turkish cofferre ish darn good stuff man!

Serdar,
I have some LCD displays with 16 pins as well, and
they too use 15 and 16 for LED Backlight. Mine are
labeled Datavision DV-16252-11 S2FBLY and they also
have P191-2 on the back. Anyway, they too follow the
standard Hitachi controller outputs:
1 - Vss (GND)
2 - Vcc (+5VDC)
3 - Vee (LCD Contrast/can connect to GND)
4 - RS (Register Select)
5 - R/W (Read/Write)
6 - E (Enable/Active High)
7 - DB0
8 - DB1
9 - DB2
10- DB3
11- DB4
12- DB5
13- DB6
14- DB7
15- BL+
16- BL-
On mine, connecting the BL- pin to ground and the BL+
to Vcc through a 10 ohm resistor satisfies the
Backlight's needs. I usually connect this through a
transistor and then I can control the Backlight with
an I/O pin through a 1K resistor into the NPN
Transitor. Hope this info helps.

Thanks for the info, last night I managed to get it to work. Yes
just like you said it is compatible with the hitachi. I used the
code and schematics that were in the lcd character creator by
parallax.
I havent been successful yet with the control of the backlight yet.
At the moment I just yank the plug out LOL. But thank you,and
everyone else who helped very much

Okay, well let me see if I can help you real quick...
Pin 15 (BL+) connects to a 10 ohm resistor, the other
end to the +5VDC line. Pin 16 (BL-) connects to a 10
ohm resistor, the other end goes to the collector of a
2N2222 or similiar NPN transitor, the emitter of the
transistor goes to ground. The base of the transistor
goes through a 1K resistor to a pin on the stamp.
When that pin is high the LCD backlight is on. When
the pin is low it's off. I don't do real good ascii
schematics, but if you want I will try.
