Hi everyone.
I have couple LCD displays and
i was going to connect them to my pc but i cannot find
any information about them....

I have 3 LCD's and here's some info about them...

1. Display: is made by SEIKO, it's 4*40 and it
has HD44780A00 chip on it.
It haves 16 pin connection (+ 2 pins for
backlight i think)

chips on it, and one chip says UG-24B04-GNBR9-R
It haves 10 pin connection + 2 pin for backlight.

Email the dude, and he'll give you all the info you'd ever want on them, as well as the prices for controller boards or any touchscreen overlays you may want.

The Seiko Display can be ran off your Parralell port, or you can pick up a parr to serial/usb adapter for it for about $35us

like here:www.matrixorbital.com (http://www.matrixorbital.com/product_info.php?pName=xboard-sseries&cName=lcd-interface-module)

Or build your own:www.madhacker.org (http://www.madhacker.org/rs232.htm)
Or go to and pick from using it Via the Parr port or make a usb adapter. www.hackaday.com (http://www.hackaday.com/entry/1234000273073516)
