I am finally building my old sammichFM kit ![]()
The LCD that came with it is an Orient Display FSTN Negative red
On the PCB there is an option for “High-power” backlight (250mA)
The standard configuration is for “Low-power” (25mA)
The paper for the LCD says: Max V= 4,1 and that the forward current for the RED backlight is 210mA
Which setting should I use?
I think it is a bit dark/dim, or maybe it’s the type of LCD.
Is it safe for this LCD to use the High-power setting?
Cheers, Hal
