LCD Question??

[muddy0409]

Has anyone ever seen an LCD with 1 line X 4 digit (now the hard bit) but with a standard HD4??? driver chip?
I need to display 4 characters only, but want to use the standard PBP LCDOUT command and LCD setup? It just seems a bit of a waste to use a 16 X 2 display.

Hi, Muddy

You can easily find 2x8 characters ...

never seen less as "standard" products ... may be 1x8 exist ?

PS: 40 cents off at this time !!!! did you also had a look to JAYCAR's ???

Thanks man, that looks quite good. Pity the last time I spoke Francais was 40 years ago at school.
Do you mean JAYCAR in Australia?
Yes I have, No they don't.
Thanks again.

Hi, Muddy

Don't be sorry for your french speaking ... I know lots more Australians speaking french than Frenchies speaking English ...
We won't speak about English from New Zealands ... I needed a 11 Hours flight to begin to understand a bit from my neighbour !!!

I meant JAYCAR in Australia, of course ...
Another way to look for components is to subscribe to RC Groups ... a modeller's forum.
Don't be surprised : There's an entire section for Australian Fliers .... here you will find generous help !!! ... and a special electronics section Where PBP is often evoked.

Have a good Week-End
