Teensy 3.1 (3.0) with LCD 20x4

Post by jepalza »

Hello:
First, I feel my bad English, but I am Spanish, and I am using google translate and dictionary

This is my first project in teensy 3.1 (valid in 3.0) to use a 20x4 LCD in 4bits mode. I am using the project of this thread http://www.coridiumcorp.com/forum/viewt ... ?f=8&t=739 with tweaks to adapt to the teensy and to 20x4 (the original is 16x2).
The connection scheme comes from an arduino project, not mine.

In Spanish (In case the automatic translation is not well understood)
Este es mi primer proyecto en teensy 3.1 (valido en 3.0) para emplear un LCD de 20x4 en modo 4bits. Estoy usando el proyecto de este hilo ..... con retoques para adecuar al teensy y a 20x4 (el original es de 16x2).
El esquema de conexión proviene de un proyecto de arduino, no es mio.
