Hi Guys,
I'm a programmer and don't know much about electronics, so please excuse the rookie question:
I have a 9V battery with which I want to power my Netduino as well as a 5V 16x2 Serial LCD Screen (from Grove).
Is this possible and if so, can someone explain to me how to wire it?
I can power the LCD with the Netduino's 5V output, but the when I use the screen's backlight, it starts flickering very faintly. This was when I was powering the Netduino with the USB cable.
Hope I make sense.
Thanks in advance. Cheers.
