How to connect the board?
The Serial GLCD 240x64 Adapter board can be easily connected to a development system via an IDC10 connector
CN1 on the at cable. The board is connected to the development system I/O port that is also connected to the SPI
module built into the microcontroller. A 2x10 connector CN3 is used to establish connection with a GLCD 240x64
display. Its backlight is connected via pads CN4. A pad marked K should be connected to a cathode, whereas a pad
marked A should be connected to an anode of the LED diode. Potentiometer P1 is used to adjust display contrast. SMD
jumpers are used to select a development system to connect the board to. By default, these jumpers are placed in the
PIC position. If you want to use another development system, it is necessary to unsolder them rst, then solder them in
the position for AVR and 8051 development systems.

Serial GLCD 240x64 Adapter
The Serial GLCD 240x64 Adapter additional board is used to connect a GLCD 240x64 display to a development system
via the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI).
Key features:
- Serial SPI communication;
- Display contrast adjustable;
- 5V power supply voltage.
