Several vendors sell a PIC-n-LCD which should meet your needs nicely. Just do a Google search.

Hi, I am looking at making an LCD daughterboard using a 16F84 and a 2x16 LCD display. There are two reasons, 1. To make an LCD module that I can use with various projects and simply unplug and plug into a different project. 2. The main reason is to allow me to only take up 1 or at most 2 I/O lines for the display. It will also be much easier being able to send the data to the daughterboard and then allowing that to do the rest of the display processing while the main processor gets on with it's other duties. This will also allow me to have the display used by more that one PIC at once. Has anybody already done this? It seems like something that allot of people would use but I cannot search the PICLIST.com site as for some reason the links to the source / projects areas will not load. Thanks, JP. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
