物联网开发笔记(25)- 使用Micropython开发ESP32开发板之控制LCD1602显示屏
这一节我们讲解了如何控制LCD1602显示屏,显示两行字。
一、目的
使用MicroPython开发ESP32开发板控制LCD1602显示屏
二、环境
ESP32 + LCD1602显示屏 + Thonny IDE + 面包板(非必须)+ 几根杜邦线(为了方便讲解,这里使用Wokwi仿真)
I2C配置的有下图的黑色小板(小班上蓝色的为调节LCD亮度的旋钮,旁边是PCF8574T芯片,相当于是开发板和LCD显示屏的桥梁作用):
标准配置的如下图:
接线图:
注意需要使用开发板上的5V电压,而不是3.3V。真实环境下使用3.3V会无法显示或者显示很暗。
三、LCD1602显示屏介绍
请查看官方文档:
wokwi-lcd1602 Reference | Wokwi DocsAn LCD with 2 lines, 16 characters per line.https://docs.wokwi.com/parts/wokwi-lcd1602 LCD1602显示屏有两种:一种是I2C的(4个针脚),两一种是标准的(16个针脚)。
I2C配置模拟控制LCD模块的PCF8574T芯片。
I2C配置(4个针脚):
标准配置(16个针脚):
四、下面举个例子给大家演示一下LCD1602显示屏的使用方法
先给大家讲解一下怎么获得1602LCD的地址:我们打开官方网站,查看:
Quick reference for the ESP32 — MicroPython 1.19.1 documentationhttp://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/esp32/quickref.html#software-i2c-bus
使用以上代码就可以打印出1602lcd显示屏的地址。
from machine import Pin, SoftI2C
i2c = SoftI2C(sda=Pin(15), scl=Pin(2), freq=100000)
lcdAddr = i2c.scan() # scan for devices
print(lcdAddr) # 打印出lcd的地址
从上图可以看到地址是39。
上代码:
main.py
import time
from machine import SoftI2C, Pin
from esp32_i2c_1602lcd import I2cLcd
DEFAULT_I2C_ADDR = 0x27 # lcd1602的地址是0x27
i2c = SoftI2C(sda=Pin(15),scl=Pin(2),freq=100000) # 定义一个SoftI2C的对象,指定sda和scl的GPIO口,并设置好通信的频率
lcd = I2cLcd(i2c, DEFAULT_I2C_ADDR, 2, 16) # 定义一个I2CLcd对象,设置模式为i2c,地址,行数,行的大小16个字节
for i in range(1, 10):
lcd.clear() # 清屏
lcd.putstr("...{}...\n".format(i)) # 显示第一行数据,\n为换行符
lcd.putstr("I love Shanghai") # 显示第二行数据
time.sleep(1)

六、扩展
在实际产品开发中,开发的GPIO口等是十分珍贵的资源,我们常用i2c模式来进行开发,减少IO口的占用,同时布线也十分简单。
我在GitHub上找到LCD1602的驱动,其中包含其他开发板的LCD1602驱动,大家有空可以学习一下。
GitHub - dhylands/python_lcd: Python based library for talking to character based LCDs.
你也可以去Micropython论坛寻找有用的资料:
