Universal User Interface Module
with LCD and SD card
This module provides a simple user interface for extending microcontroller-based circuits. Graphics and text display commands can be sent to it over a serial interface, and, using its UART, the module reports back when the state of any of six inputs changes. Additional firmware can display a slideshow of images stored on an SD card.
Materials
Gerber file
CAM/CAD data for the PCB referred to in this article is available as a Gerber file. Elektor GREEN and GOLD members can exclusively download these files for free as part of their membership. Gerber files allow a PCB to be produced on an appropriate device available locally, or through an online PCB manufacturing service.
Elektor recommends the Elektor PCB Service service from its business partner Eurocircuits or AISLER as the best services for its own prototypes and volume production.
