julienvoirin Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) I am looking for an old but NOS and/or working LCD 2x40 characters, HD44780 compliant to replace a dead one in a Roland D550. That MUST be slim cause the old one had a total thickness of 9mm (for example, the actual LCDs on ebay are 14mm) It must have a backlight, a led backlight. no preference on colour. Thanks for your proposals :) Edited September 8, 2012 by julienvoirin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairlightiii Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Hi Julien. You probably already know this links: http://www.polynominal.com/site/studio/gear/synth/roland_d550/lcd.htm http://www.backlight4you.com/product_info.php/info/p926_EL-Panel--blue-green--21mm-x-166mm--laminated.html The second is for use with a non backlighted LCD wich seems to be more common in this thickness. Regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julienvoirin Posted September 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 thanks fairlight, yes i've seen those, but the price for the EL foil is definitly a steal. My LCD is working, but i can't easily read what's written on without a BL. Moreover i would like to avoid the necessary cutting of PCB, drilling the case, etc. So I am also looking for cheap EL foil replacemnt part ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
