Product description

Custom 16×2 Standard Alphanumeric Display 16-PIN Flexible Design LCD Modules With Multi-Color Backlight from LCD factory

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

Features a large-standard character library, displaying 16 characters per line (2 lines total), ideal for clear text-based information display in compact setups.

Offers blue or yellow-green display panels, paired with red, amber, white, or yellow-green backlighting to enhance visibility and match diverse aesthetic/operational needs.

Standard 16-pin configuration ensures easy integration into various applications, from embedded systems to DIY projects, with reliable connectivity.

Available in 8x2 to 40x4 sizes, all with backlight colors including white, blue, yellow, red, green, and amber, catering to both small-scale and large-format display requirements.

Supports 6800, SPI, and I2C interfaces, enabling seamless integration with different microcontrollers and systems for customizable solutions.

Optional VATN displays deliver wide viewing angles and high contrast, ensuring crisp readability from multiple perspectives in industrial, commercial, or consumer electronics.

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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 JM1602M?

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.

Packaging, shipping and trade terms

Packaging is anti-static bag + foam tray + export carton, shipped by DHL / FedEx / UPS express, air freight, sea freight. Trade terms EXW, FOB Shenzhen, CIF, payment T/T, L/C, PayPal.

Need this module with different parameters?

Most orders start from a catalogue model and change two or three parameters. Send us the differences you need and we will confirm feasibility, tooling and price.
