TWI_LCD1602_Module_(SKU__DFR0063) - jimaobian/DFRobotWiki GitHub Wiki
this is another great lcd display from dfrobot. with the limited pin resources, your project may be out of resources using normal lcd shield. with this i2c interface lcd module, you only need 2 lines (i2c) to display the information. if you already has i2c devices in your project, this lcd module actually cost no more resources at all. fantastic for Arduino based project.
Specification
