 +The code on this page is for an Arduino (compatible) microcontroller,​ however there is a PIC microcontroller library available too.

 +I have never gotten around to working with a PIC, but I received an email from //MDP// wrote a library for the LCD display to be used on a PIC18F4550

 +He has been kind enough to share this with the world, and he send me his code. You can download everything {{:​projects:​lcd_module:​sainsmart_i2c_adapter_files.zip|here}}

 +//MDP// also wrote a more universal library for the PIC, one that is also compatible with the adapter labled "​mjkdz"​. You can download the files {{:​projects:​lcd_module:​lcd_pic_i2c_generic_driver-10.zip|here}}
