A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly [ 1 ] but instead use a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome.
The Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller is an alphanumeric dot matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) controller developed by Hitachi in the 1980s. The character set of the controller includes ASCII characters, Japanese Kana characters, and some symbols in two 40 character lines. Using an extension driver, the device can display up to 80 characters. [1]
Seven-segment display. A typical 7-segment LED display component, with decimal point in a wide DIP -10 package. A seven-segment display is a form of electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an alternative to the more complex dot matrix displays. Seven-segment displays are widely used in digital clocks, electronic meters ...
A thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD) is a type of liquid-crystal display that uses thin-film-transistor technology to improve image qualities such as addressability and contrast. [1] A TFT LCD is an active matrix LCD, in contrast to passive matrix LCDs or simple, direct-driven (i.e. with segments directly connected to ...
Liquid crystal (LC) is a state of matter whose properties are between those of conventional liquids and those of solid crystals. For example, a liquid crystal can flow like a liquid, but its molecules may be oriented in a common direction as in a solid. There are many types of LC phases, which can be distinguished by their optical properties ...
Arduino and Arduino-compatible boards use printed circuit expansion boards called shields, which plug into the normally supplied Arduino pin headers. [55] Shields can provide motor controls for 3D printing and other applications, GNSS (satellite navigation), Ethernet, liquid crystal display (LCD), or breadboarding (prototyping).
A transflective liquid-crystal display[1] is a liquid-crystal display (LCD) with an optical layer that reflects and transmits light (transflective is a portmanteau of transmissive and reflective). [2] Under bright illumination (e.g. when exposed to daylight) the display acts mainly as a reflective display with the contrast being constant with ...
DSTN: double layer STN effect. FSTN: foil-compensated supertwisted nematic effect (foil = retarder sheet) in-plane switching effects, IPS [4] fringe-field switching effect, FFS. vertically aligned effects, VA [5] multi-domain vertical alignment, MVA [6] patterned vertical alignment, PVA [7] PI-cell [8] (aka OCB-cell)
