(9)  D4                          11 DB4  data bus 0x10  
(10) D5                          12 DB5  data bus 0x20  
(11) D6                          13 DB6  data bus 0x40  
(12) D7                          14 DB7  data bus 0x80  
only the upper 4 bits are used to write a character into the LCD, the lower 3 bits are control bits.
