Crisp silkscreen and nice soldering. LCD has no problem with the 3.3v logic level. All buttons are readable with distinct analog values, and the reset button works too. Using mbed OS 5 and the TextLCD library to drive it. And since the Nucleo is 5v tolerant on all pins, the 5v vcc breakouts can be used without a level converter. Kind of ironic that the mbed ecosystem has a more Arduino-compatible ARM board than the Due or Zero. Review: As advertised, well-built. I wish the pins were longer. - This shield delivers everything it's supposed to deliver. It's easy to integrate into a project, and it responds as expected. The build quality is excellent. I will say that the stacking header pins are quite short. This makes it difficult to stack the display with another shield, such as the Ethernet shield. This is easily fixed with a second set of stacking headers inserted in between; be sure to order these at the same time if you plan to stack this on anything other than the bare Arduino. ## Features - Operating Voltage: 5V - 5 Push buttons to supply a custom menu control panel - RST button for resetting Arduino program - Integrate a potentiometer for adjusting the backlight - 16 character x 2 line HD44780 compatible LCD ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006D903KE | | Additional Features | Backlit | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,454 in Single Board Computers (Computers & Accessories) | | Brand | DFROBOT | | Built-In Media | USB Cable | | Button Quantity | 6 | | Color | Original Version | | Compatible Devices | PC, Arduino-compatible devices | | Compatible Operating System Family | Windows | | Connectivity Technology | Bluetooth | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 110 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Item Weight | 2 ounces | | Keyboard Description | Gaming | | Keyboard Layout | QWERTY | | Manufacturer | DFRobot | | Mfr Part Number | DFR0009 | | Model Number | DFR0009 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Keys | 16 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Power Source | USB Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Gaming | | Special Feature | Backlit | | Style Name | Contemporary | | Switch Type | Mechanical | | UPC | 091037095268 710205135062 793519572242 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DFROBOT - **Color:** Original Version - **Compatible Devices:** PC, Arduino-compatible devices - **Connectivity Technology:** Bluetooth - **Included Components:** USB Cable - **Keyboard Description:** Gaming - **Material:** Plastic - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Gaming - **Special Feature:** Backlit - **Style:** Contemporary ## Images ![DFROBOT-DFR0009 Gravity: 1602 LCD Keypad Shield For Arduino - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61pzYhj3ZQL.jpg) ![DFROBOT-DFR0009 Gravity: 1602 LCD Keypad Shield For Arduino - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vCheIy9aL.jpg) ![DFROBOT-DFR0009 Gravity: 1602 LCD Keypad Shield For Arduino - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61lsMOTT-LL.jpg) ![DFROBOT-DFR0009 Gravity: 1602 LCD Keypad Shield For Arduino - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-hpu-7AXL.jpg) ![DFROBOT-DFR0009 Gravity: 1602 LCD Keypad Shield For Arduino - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yU3dbG5HL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great with the Nucleo F401RE *by J***B on September 12, 2020* Appears to be very good quality.
