AVR LCD Interface Guide

This document contains code for interfacing an LCD 16x2 display with an AVR ATmega16 microcontroller. It defines pin connections and macros for the data and command ports. Functions are included to initialize the LCD, write commands and characters, display strings on one or both lines, and clear the display. The main function calls LCD_Init() followed by LCD_String() twice to display example text on both lines of the LCD.
