O ozirock New Member Jan 15, 2010 #1 Hi, I'm a total newbie to the PIC micro controller world but I do my best I've ordered a simple lcd display from ebay but I just want to make sure that I can actually run an LCD using any PIC. I mean I don't need a PIC with LCD features do I? I have a PIC16f627 if thats useful

O ozirock New Member Jan 15, 2010 #3 This page may only be viewable by me but we'll give it a go. **broken link removed** is the page with the description of the lcd. It's a HD44780 16x2 characters LCD module Blue backlight. I taught this is pretty standard one which is why I'm getting it. What do you think?
