Product description
Custom 16x2 Character LCD Module With Multi-Color Backlight 6800 Interface Wide Viewing Angle VATN Display
Definition
A Character LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) module is a display device designed to show alphanumeric characters, symbols, and simple icons. It uses predefined character patterns stored in its memory to form text-based information, typically arranged in rows and columns. Unlike graphic LCDs, character LCDs focus on presenting text rather than complex images or graphics.
Product Features and advantages
Available in multiple alphanumeric configurations (8x2, 16x1, 16x2, 16x4, 20x2, 20x4, 40x4) to suit various display requirements, from compact to extended text applications.
Offers a wide range of backlight colors, including white, blue, yellow-green, red, green, and amber, ensuring high visibility in different environments and aesthetic preferences.
Supports 6800, SPI, and I2C interfaces, providing seamless integration with diverse microcontrollers and systems to meet customized customer needs.
Features VATN displays with wide viewing angles and high contrast, enhancing readability and making them ideal for applications requiring optimal visibility from various perspectives.
The 16-pin configuration (e.g., 16x2 models) ensures compatibility with common setups, while select models (like 16x2) offer blue or yellow-green display colors for additional versatility.
Designed for easy integration and durability, suitable for industrial, consumer electronics, and embedded systems across different industries.

What this specification means in practice
TN glass is the cost-efficient choice with the fastest response. Contrast and colour shift once you move off the specified viewing direction, so it fits devices with a fixed operator position.
100 cd/m² is an indoor, low-power specification - typical for battery meters and handheld instruments where runtime matters more than brightness.
Operating range -20°C to +70°C covers unheated cabinets, outdoor enclosures and cold-chain equipment. Standard commercial panels stop at 0 °C and go dark or slow in the cold.
Ordering and customisation
This model ships as a bare module by default. We commonly modify the FPC length and connector, change the backlight current, add a capacitive or resistive touch panel, or bond cover glass with your printing. Tell us the enclosure opening and the mounting method and we will confirm what can stay standard and what needs tooling.
Typical applications
Industrial Automation & HMI
Status lines on controllers and drives - two or four rows of text is often the entire UI requirement.
Instrumentation & Metering
Bench equipment and test rigs where a standard 16x2 module keeps BOM cost and firmware effort minimal.
How a customised order runs
Send the requirement
Size, resolution, interface, brightness, operating temperature, touch or no touch, and the annual quantity. A photo or drawing of the enclosure opening helps more than a long description.
We confirm feasibility and quote
You get a specific model number or a modification plan, with tooling cost and lead time stated separately from the unit price. Usually within one working day.
Sample and approval
Samples in 10-15 days from stock glass; custom glass or a new FPC adds tooling time. You approve dimensions, display quality and interface timing before mass production starts.
Production and shipment
10-20 days after specification freeze. Anti-static bag + foam tray + export carton, shipped DHL / FedEx / UPS express or by your forwarder. We keep the approved sample as the reference for every repeat order.

Questions about this model
What is the minimum order quantity for the JM1602A?
Samples are 5 pcs. Production MOQ is 100 pcs for this catalogue model and 1,000 pcs when the FPC, backlight or glass is modified.
How long is the lead time?
10-20 days for production quantities, 10-15 days for samples from stock glass. Custom tooling is quoted separately and confirmed in writing first.
Can this module be customised?
Yes - FPC length and pin order, connector type, backlight brightness and colour temperature, cover glass, touch panel and bonding method. See what is changeable.
Do you provide a datasheet and drawing?
Yes. Email hyd@szjunxian.com with the model number and we send the full datasheet, 2D drawing and, where relevant, the initial sample report.
Which interface should I choose for my board?
It depends on your host processor and target resolution. Our interface selection guide compares MCU, SPI, RGB, LVDS and MIPI by pin count, resolution ceiling and MCU load.
