This LCD shield makes it easier for people to get these LCD into their projects using a Pi plate that lets you control a 16x2 Character LCD, up to 3 backlight pins AND 5 keypad pins using only the two I2C pins on the R-Pi! The best part is you don t really lose those two pins either, since you can stick i2c-based sensors, RTCs, etc and have them share the I2C bus. This is a super slick way to add a display without all the wiring hassle.
New, this item is an updated Pi plate with the buttons on on the right side, which makes it a little more mechanically stable
