Re: Parallel to serial converter

I'm working with one now, parallel, Hitachi based, I think a shift register will work but I'm not entirely sure, however the LCD only reads the data pins when you pull it's "Enable" pin high. Serial LCDs are too expensive if you're making a lot of something, parallels really cheap, it's worth knowing how to use the parallel LCDs.
