Hello,

I would be thankfull if someone could show me a schematic that uses an ouput pin of a PIC to turn on/off the LCD backlight. So if the pin is High(on) the backlights turns on and if the pin is Low(off) it turns off the backlight.

I have measured the backlights and it eats lots of ma (about 200ma) it's too much to be leave on all the time, so a control by software would be so nice.

Thanks!
