openGLCD - a fork of glcdv3 that has more features and is licensed GPL v3 vs LGPL 2.1+.glcd or glcd v3 - a partial re-write of ks0108 that I contributed heavily (it is faster and supports other glcds).ks0108 - a port of Thiele's library to Arduino by Michael Michael Margolis.There are 3 different "ks0108" libraries that all share the same heritage from a library written by Fabian Maximilian Thiele. While pinout tables can be convenient, they are error prone and errors in wiring can potentially damage the glcd or the Arduino.Ī real ks0108 datasheet will show the glcd function for each module pin. I have the email with the specific KS0108 module datasheet which had been sent to me by the seller, this specifies that the KS0108 uses Pinout B, but the mapping is applied for the Mega Arduino.Īgain, you should be using a real datasheet - not ks0108 pinout table references. The diag sketch is designed to help with soldering & wiring issues or lcd h/w issues, assuming the pin wiring is correct.īut first and foremost is to get the wiring correct based on the datasheet.ĭo you have a link to the datasheet for your specific LCD module? Once the display is wired up, the next step is to run the diag sketch. See the section Wiring->KS1010Family in the documentation. The openGLCD wiki explains where/how to find the documentation in the openGLCD library.
#ARDUINO NANO PINOUT LCD HOW TO#
There is additional information about about how to wire up the pins in the included opgnGLCD html documentation that comes with the library. Some of the pinouts are so different that damage to the Arduino or the GLCD can occur if using the incorrect pinout.
The display must be wired up to the appropriate arduino pins based on the datasheet. What is necessary is to use the datasheet for your particular ks0108 module. There are more than 10 different pinouts for ks0108 modules. I have tried debugging it, checking the code, checking the wiring, but no luck so far.įorget anything that has to do with panel pinout "types". The sketch uploads successfully and starts running.however I only get a partial line at the bottom, and SOMETIMES 2 lines refreshing as they should, the rest just blank white (see photo: ). Potentiometer right-pin is also attached to common GND The wiring is as below, based on Pinout B from Arduino Playground - GLCDks0108 :ġ7 5V (Also tried attaching to RST pin, same results) I have recently acquired an Arduino Nano (Mega328) and I'm trying to assemble the circuitry and running the ks0108 example found in with the openGLCD ( bperrybap / openGLCD / wiki / Home - Bitbucket ) library. I used to connect my ATMega2560 to it and it used to work flawlessly.
