The Nokia 5110 LCD module is a basic graphic LCD display that can be used in a wide range of applications. It uses the PCD8544 controller which is a low power CMOS LCD controller/driver that can be interfaced with the microcontroller using a serial interface.

Specifications

• Blue backlight
• Low-voltage power supply
• Operating Current: ≤200 µA
• 84 x 48 dot matrix LCD
• Each corner has a 3 mm positioning hole along where header pins can be soldered

The connector uses the following pinout:

1. RST – Reset
2. CE – Chip Select
3. D/C – Data/Instruction Selection
4. DIN – Serial Data Line
5. CLK – Serial Clock Line
6. VCC – Power Input (3.3 V and 5 V available)
7. BL – Backlight Control
8. GND – Ground
