16f630 and LCD

[mister_e]

That's still 'round 30$... too much expensive. I never found it was 'intelligent' to waste your money on a serial LCD while you can do your own interface for about 5$ (including all hardware.. PCB, PIC, +++ ,+++ )in low quantity.

ANYways that model you found will work.

If you plan to reduce the Pricing, look at their Character LCD Section. You'll find a 16X2 for less than 15$ in low quantity. http://www.crystalfontz.com/cgi-bin/...#character-lcd
