The 1602 LCD Display Module Green is a 16-character by 2-line alphanumeric LCD with green backlight — the most widely used character LCD in beginner Arduino kits, STEM lab kits, and starter electronics projects across India — displaying 32 total character positions across two rows where each row holds 16 characters, enough to show a sensor label on the first line and its current reading on the second, or a two-line status message, or a simple scrolling menu. The lcd 1602 display module is the first LCD most Arduino learners work with, supported by the built-in LiquidCrystal library that comes pre-installed in the Arduino IDE and requires no additional library installation for parallel wiring, making the 1602a lcd display module the most beginner-accessible character display in the StemVolt range compared to the 2004 module which offers more character space but the same familiar workflow.
The lcd 16×2 module operates from 4.7V to 5.3V DC, drawing power directly from the Arduino’s 5V regulated output pin, and uses the standard HD44780-compatible parallel interface with 16 pins — a 4-bit or 8-bit data bus connection handled entirely by the LiquidCrystal library which maps the Arduino’s digital pins to the display’s register select, enable, and data lines. The physical PCB dimensions of 80×38×10mm fit the standard LCD footprint used in most Arduino project enclosures, panel cutouts, and custom PCB layouts designed for 1602-size displays. An optional I2C adapter module (sold separately) reduces the 16-pin parallel connection to just 4 wires for projects where GPIO pins are limited, using the LiquidCrystal_I2C library with the same simple print commands.
Available from StemVolt, offering quality electronics parts at competitive prices. This lcd display arduino module is ideal for Arduino ESP32 beginner 2-line sensor readout menu STEM project and first LCD character display builds in India.
