#109136 - A different approach
Responding to: ???'s previous message
First, you should be using an 8051 derivative.

Second, the logic in the HD44780 IC will work fine at 3v3 but the contrast will be horrible. Rather than make a 5v voltage supply, consider converting +3v3 to - one or two volts and apply that to the bottom end of the contrast control (resistors/pot/whatever). We do this and it works great.
