This shield with a 16×2 RGB LCD screen could bring you a brand-new experience with an LCD screen!
The RGB LCD shield extends all IOs of Arduino UNO on the back, by which you can connect with modules like sensors, LEDs, and servos while using this screen to display content. More possibilities for your creative projects!
Besides, there are 6 keys on the shield, 5 of which are programable and can be used to switch and set functions.
The 1602 RGB LCD shield adopts an integrated design approach and I2C communication. No more complicated wiring, you can directly plug this shield onto an Arduino controller, call the Arduino library, add a couple of lines of codes, then the screen can display numbers or characters.
This 1602 RGB LCD shield can not only be used in interactive projects but also suitable for building data monitoring platforms to feed back the real-time status of various devices.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- I2C
- I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
- LCD
- LCD stands for liquid crystal display, a screen technology that uses a backlight and liquid crystals to show images or text. It matters because LCD modules usually need a display driver and enough controller pins or a bus interface to send image data.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, usually referring to an LED that can mix those three colours. It matters because controlling an RGB LED teaches how separate outputs combine to create different colours.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
