Is there any components for a 4x20 serial LCD in FC6?

If you want a different size to 20 x 4 then select the LCD (Generic) and select required rows and columns

Hi Bill, I did not pay full attention to your post and was oblivious to the serial part.
Are you referring to I2C, SPI etc?
If so the part shown would not be suitable.

The LCD that I have is I2C and seems that you guys have that covered. Didn't get to try it yet (stupid American Football) but hope that I can try it tomorrow after work. Once again ,Thanks. :D Bill

OK I figured it out. My Chip needed to be put to nano328 and then the comm speed issue went away. :lol: You guy had a hunch that I would figure it out didn't you? LOL
