In this video, I cover the connection and use of a dot matrix LCD display.
These displays are cost-effective and relatively easy to get working, however, they are sometimes supplied dead on arrival. These DOA units can usually be fixed easily if you know what to look out for.
If you are looking to buy the hardware, and happy to support the channel, please use the affiliate links below.
1 x Display module - amzn.to/3DuCdPo
There is also the option to buy 5 units, at a better price if you need a few spare.
The test code can be found here (copy & paste into sketch IDE) - github.com/DanSohan/Arduino-Projects/blob/main/5110_LCD_Test.ino
