Use RGB LCD Plate from Breadboard

Post by drohm »

If I wanted to use an RGB Negative 16x2 LCD+Keypad Kit from a breadboard instead of plugging it directly into the raspberry pi, is this possible? I would specifically need to know what pins need to be plugged into the header on the LCD plate. Is this possible and does the pin out information exist somewhere that I can refer to when hooking this up on the breadboard? The reason I'd like to do this is so that I can hook other things up to the Pi via the cobbler. I realize there are stacking headers, but I have a B+ and the header on the LCD plate is only 26.

Thanks.

Doug

The schematic is linked on the downloads page of the tutorial.
The block in the center shows the connections: 5V, GND, SDA, and SCL
