The subject says it all. I'm a total noob by the way. I have several small displays but I don't know which pin is which and what to hook to what. I think if I at least knew how to figure out what each pin is, that would be a good start.
This image is a pretty representative example of what all of my displays are like.
Actually no. Most of them have 16 pins if the backlight led is on the same connector or 14 pins with the 2 backlight led pens at the short end of the right side. I'm not familiar with 12 pin lcd displays. Are there pin numbers or any other markings like a part number?
Where did you get them ? Did you buy them on ebay ? Do you have a vendor link ?
The one in the picture, I salvaged out of something. I think it was a clock because randomly touching pins to power I saw "P.M." once. I have 3 more that I got from goldmine-electronics. One appears to be 40 pins, one is 28 pins, and one I guess is basically garbage because it has no pins. Only the 40 pin has any numbers on it: "6810/WMY/3-C1 . 110"
