I'm working on a project that needs to display a lot of information and I've just received my 40x2 LCDs in the mail. I'm still trying to figure out the best way of driving one, and although the purist in me wants to invent my own system (inspired by Hippy for example) the pragmatist in me wants to finish the project some time soon.
So I'm happy with the idea of getting the serial LCD firmware offered by Rev-Ed (FRM010) but just wanted to clarify something.
In the datasheet it refers to the following in the parts list:
Does this mean the firmware only supports a smaller LCD? Or can I actually use a 40x2 with it?
