Re: 84 x 48 LCD Display / Nokia 5110 - (HCMODU0105)

. I removed the bezel and noticed that there is no connections between the the display and the breakout board pc. Back of the display itself there is just a rubber pad where the contacts should be. Yes, that rubber strip is actually the thing that connects the LCD substrate to the PCB. If you look ...

Re: LoRa Modules

New to the store and putting together the pieces for the first of a few planned projects based on LoRa for communication. I wondered if you had given any thought to stocking at least one low cost LoRa module? Yes, this is something we defiantly want to stock in the near future but at the moment I c...

OK I now have prolific driver version 3.3.11.152 dated 12/3/2010 installed.

Re: Pic - K150 ICSP Programmer (HCDVBD0002)

According to my device manager, I'm using a prolific driver dated November 2023 version 3.9.6.2 That’s the wrong driver and was probably installed automatically by Windows. You’ll need to first remove it by following these steps: 1) Find the entry for the K150 in device manager which will be listed...

Re: Pic - K150 ICSP Programmer (HCDVBD0002)

Hi, I'm struggling with the port issue. I'm running Windows 11 Home on an Asus VivoBook. The Programmer is correctly set to K150..... Have you installed the ‘unofficial driver’ found in the first post of this thread or are you using the one automatically installed by Windows? If it’s the latter, th...

Re: Hobby Components 1602 SmartLCD (HCMODU0122)

Glad you got it working. LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x3F,16,2); and not LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27,16,2); Just so you know – the opposite is required. Yep, they can either be 0x27 or 0x3F depending on the version you have. Both options are in the sketch. I should have pointed out to try both. I'm going t...

Re: Hobby Components Arduino Compatible R3 Mega (HCARDU0092)

avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "\\.\COM5": Access is denied. From the above line it looks like something is blocking access to the COM port and stopping the IDE from uploading the sketch. Sometimes AVRDude, the program that runs in the background and does the actual uploading, can lock up a...
