Here are a few tutorials dealing with LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays) and how to wire them up for use with a microcontroller. I'll be focusing on Arduino but of course the information will be very useful no matter what chip you're using!

• Using classic character LCDs on a breadboard (the single-line header ones work best)
• Soldering classic character LCDs into a 'shield' (for LCDs with 8x2 header)
• Using ST7565/P serial graphical LCDs
