New LCD Display

Went to Alphatronics today and Chuck the owner asked me to take a look at an LCD 16×2 display he got.

Weird that the pins are on the side rather than top in one row.

He sent me a datasheet that may be what the device is.  Not sure of the source so I don’t think I can post it here.

But here are some important points, seems to be 5 volts and the pins on the left are such.

Seems standard to most LCDs I have seen before.

Here is the right which is the backlight.

Will give it a try tonight, need to do some soldering though.

Just doing pushups and situps, looks like I am losing, hope to do a 5k tomorrow.
