Arduino Based Digital Voltmeter Using 16X2 LCD (Voltage Range 0 to 5V)

The simple digital voltmeter made  using Arduino  Nano and 16X2 LCD, the project is tested on TWOVOLT Multi-Project LCD Shield; Arduino has a couple of 10 Bit ADC pins, we have used A0 pin as an input. The PR2 Trimmer pot used as input voltage, Remove PR2 to measure the external voltage. 16X2 LCD used to display the measured voltage.  Arduino can be power using USB cable or 12V DC at CN1 VDD and GND pin. PR2 5K Ohms or 10K Ohms can be used.
