Grove 16x2 RGB LCD Display

The goal of this project is to show how to interface with a Grove 16x2 RGB LCD display using I2C.

Contents

File/folder Description
src\HighLevelApp Azure Sphere Sample App source code
src\16x2_driver Source for the Grove 16x2 RGB LCD display
README.md This README file.
LICENSE.txt The license for the project.

Prerequisites & Setup

Note that the Azure Sphere High Level application is configured for the 21.04 SDK release.

How to use

The 'display driver' for the Grove 16x2 RGB LCD display is based on the Python Seeed LCD RGB Wiki sample code.

The display driver exposes three functions, usage is demonstrated below:

 RGBLCD_Init(MT3620_RDB_HEADER4_ISU2_I2C);    // returns false on failure
 RGBLCD_SetColor(0, 255, 0);  // Set background Color Green
 RGBLCD_SetText("Hello world\nSecond line!"); // two lines using '\n'

Note that the Grove 16x2 RGB LCD display is a 5V device, you will need to use a Level Converter to drive the display at 5V rather than 3.3V.

Project expectations

  • The code has been developed to show how to integrate a Seeed I2C LCD RGB 16x2 display to an Azure Sphere board - It is not official, maintained, or production-ready code.

Expected support for the code

This code is not formally maintained, but we will make a best effort to respond to/address any issues you encounter.

How to report an issue
