I know its an led voltage cus ones hooked up.......buth there are diff voltages so how do I do it????
I have no clue what the voltage is on the LCD. But if you get either a Matrix Orbital or Crystal Fontz lcd it will work with your current PSU.
LCD units vary, but mostly run off 5v. Backlight LCD units do at any rate weather it is the HD4470 chip or the SL0066K chipset. http://www.bearscave.net > projects > 16x2 LCD I have some technical information on them there. It should also give you an idea of ONE way of hooking them up.
