This backlight display plugs directly into the 8051 development board (rev 5). It displays 20 characters by 2 lines. Characters are black against a green background.

This LCD includes a green LED backlight, which allows the characters to be viewed without ambient light. In normal room light, the characters are visible without the backlight. A 15 ohm resistor is included for current limiting to the backlight, and a foam tape pad is included to help mount the LCD to the 8051 development board.
