LiquidCrystal

The Wiring LiquidCrystal library allows for easily writing data to an external generic liquid crystal display (LCD) based on the H44780 controller. It can be used as output to your Wiring programs.

The LCD display has 14 or in some cases 15 pins, from which 8 are used for data transmission, 3 for control operations, 2 for power, 1 for controlling the display contrast and optionally one for lighting it.
