Want to add a 16x2 LCD display to your project, and show off/display stuff in your ProtoStax Enclosure?
You can now do that with the ProtoStax LCD Kit. This includes a Top piece with the necessary mounting holes and cutout for a 16x2 LCD (included), as well as the LCD screen. It works with any ProtoStax Enclosure! (ProtoStax Enclosure not included).
You can use any existing LCD libraries with it. The LCD module is a HD44780 compatible one with 14 pins - it does not have a backlight (backlight models have 16 pins, and the last 2 pins are for the LED backlight).
Simply replace the existing top of your ProtoStax Enclosure with the one from the ProtoStax LCD Kit (with the LCD screen mounted) and you are good to go! Connect the screen to your micro-controller/SBC to start displaying stuff for your project.
This will work with all ProtoStax Enclosures - Arduino, Raspberry Pi B+/4B/A+/Zero, Breadboard (Arduino Nano, Raspberry Pi Pico, Adafruit Feather, Particle, ESP, etc that are breadboard friendly MCUs).
This Extension Kit does not include the Enclosure. Make sure to add a ProtoStax Enclosure to your order if you don't already have it!

Getting Started w/ ProtoStax Enclosures
See how to set up & use ProtoStax enclosures for your next DIY Electronics/Computing project with Arduino, Raspberry Pi & other MCUs & SBCs
ProtoStax Enclosures are Stackable, Modular & Extensible
They ease your path from Prototype to Product! Make your prototypes useable and attractive with ProtoStax!
Modular
-
Use it as a prototyping plate, with full and open access to your device while prototyping. Rubber feet protect your board and your table top!
-
Omit the side walls and just add the top for an open configuration with more airflow and open access.
-
Add side walls and the top to form a fully enclosed case for maximum protection.
The cases offer connectivity to external systems using our unique cable management methods (see features above)
Extensible
Extension kits and Add-Ons allow you to add functionality to your enclosure. Add a fan or two, switches, camera & tripod mount, and more!
Just filter by "extension kit" or "add-on" in the main shopping page to view the choices, or click below!
Stackable
All ProtoStax cases are compatible with each other and can be stacked side-by-side (horizontally) or one on top of the other (vertically). Mix-and-match multiple ProtoStax cases and put together a larger enclosure from the individual ones! Our Raspberry Pi + Breadboard, or Raspberry Pi + Arduino enclosures are popular bundles. You can also mix-and-match various Raspberry Pi enclosures (A+, B/B+, Zero enclosures to build your hybrid cluster with whatever Pis you have lying around!)
