Hello,
We have ordered DisplayTech 16x2 LCD '162HCCBC3LP.' LCD initialization and Character display Code implemented for  4 bit mode as per data sheet and checked through simulation and found that the LCD displaying Text correctly.       But when i am checking in real the LCD not displaying any text showing blank screen (image attached).
I have checked two devices and found that same behavior. can you confirm me either i am missing any instruction sequence or devices not working.Â
Hello
I wish to buy some 16x2 characters LCD displays like the 162J. I need the best readability by low light with backlight switched off, so the background have to be very clear (I mean closest to white).
For example most calculators LCD displays are very good with a light gray background. But many avalaible 16x2 displays have a green background which is too dark.
I'm a bit confused by all the 162x variants and by the LCD technologies (TN, HTN, FSTN). Which one will be the best for that purpose ?
