Usually BG Micro has the datasheets for their LCD's and other items up on their website. Have you checked there? rrc124+@PITT.EDU wrote: > I recently purchases an LCD display, 16x2, from BG Micro. It has a backlight, but I can't seem to get it working (the display itself works fine). It looks like there is a seperate V+ and GND wire, but when I feed it 5v, nothing happens. I am afraid to feed it more because I don't want to damage it, plus I assume i'd at least see a tiny glow.. Any information you can offer as to the typical function/requirements of LCD backlights such as this would be appreciated.
