Displays designed for use in embedded systems keep evolving. Today’s crop of display products feature tiny form factors, sunlight-readable capabilities and embedded-friendly interfacing.

We’ve come a long way from the days when adding a display to an embedded system meant taking a laptop or consumer device LCD and just putting a protective covering on it. Today’s displays for embedded systems continue to offer new formats and smaller sizes. New levels of ruggedness are opening the door to harsh environment applications. And integration and interfacing continue to become easier and less costly.

Over the last 12 months, embedded display vendors have launched a variety of new display solutions. These products span a diverse set of screen technologies and formats including, TFT LCDs, IPS LCDs, OLEDs, e-paper displays, panel PCs and more.

Displays designed for outdoor use need to meet a variety of requirements that don’t apply to office desktop displays. Along those lines, in January Newhaven Display announced that its 5″ TFT LCDs are now available with sunlight readable screen technology. The sunlight readable TFT LCD modules feature 3M enhancement film and LED backlights rated up to 1,000cd/m2 to deliver brightness levels suitable for any environment, including direct sunlight.

The new 5″ sunlight readable TFTs are also available with added capacitive touch panel capability (Figure 1). Under the brand name “Sunlight Readable TFT LCD Modules,” the 800×480-pixel units run off 3V and have a 24-bit parallel interface. MVA (70 degree) viewing angles are supported along with wide temperature support: -20°C to 70°C.

According to Newhaven, the company’s engineers can modify your display’s interface with HDMI, SPI or other interface types. You can adjust the length, size, pinout and shape of the display’s cables. You can choose capacitive or resistive touchscreen technology. Newhaven can adjust the glass thickness or shape of the touch panel to fit your embedded design.

Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display technology has been growing in popularity in embedded applications. OLED displays make use of organic compounds with self-emissive characteristics. According to display vendor Noritake, OLED displays produce higher contrast images, have a wider viewing angle, faster response and are thinner and more lightweight compared to conventional displays.

An example of Noritake’s OLED offerings is its GE256X64C-7933B OLED display module (Figure 2). This OLED module works as a character display by simply sending ASCII code to the module. The on-board flash memory can store up to 256 screen images, which significantly reduces software development costs and host controller memory usage. In addition, Noritake provides free design resources including command evaluation software, code libraries and downloadable datasheets. The module’s size and GU7000 derived command set makes it easy to replace old LCD/VFD/OLED displays, says the company.

Interfacing to microcontrollers (MCUs) is easy with the GE256X64C. The module is available with industrial standard serial interfaces (UART/I2C/SPI) to directly connect the display module to an MCU. It’s powered by a 3.3V single power supply. The module features a reliable COG (chip on glass) OLED panel construction. It boasts long life specs of 70K hours until 50 percent brightness attenuation.

A growing number of embedded applications require extra-small displays. In the past, such solutions were expensive because of the complex miniaturization of components. Bucking that trend, 4D Systems offers a 1.3″ embedded graphics display that is designed with a low total cost of ownership in mind. The pixxiLCD-13 is a 1.3″ round color TFT-LCD compact intelligent display module that offers an array of functionality and options for any designer, integrator or user wishing to add a full color HMI into an application (Figure 3).

Based on in-plane switching (IPS) LCD technology, the round IPS display offers wide viewing angles. The pixxiLCD-13 is powered by the configurable PIXXI-28 graphics processor, allowing various functionalities such as touch detection, microSD or serial flash memory storage, GPIO and ADC, along with multiple millisecond resolution timers, and UART and I2C communication.

The pixxiLCD-13 embedded graphics display comes in two variants: a non-touch pixxiLCD-13P2 and a capacitive-touch pixxiLCD-13P2-CTP-CLB. The pixxiLCD embedded graphics displays are 100% compatible with the 4D Systems’ Workshop4 IDE, which provides users with a wealth of options for programming and controlling their systems. The pixxiLCD displays feature a standard 15-way, 0.5mm pitch ZIF socket interface that carries the UART, I/O, I2C, power and reset signals to/from the display.

According the company, the pixxiLCD-13 is suited for a wide variety of applications, including general purpose low-cost embedded graphics, elevator control systems, electronic gauges and meters, instrumentation, industrial control/robotics, automotive displays, GPS/Sat-Nav systems, medical instruments, heart rate and blood pressure monitors, smart home automation display panels, consumer appliance devices, security and access control panels and vending machine panels.

A key category of display solutions in the embedded space is panel PCs. Panel PCs are display systems that are meant to be mounted on a factory wall or on the side of an industrial machine. They also are found in transportation systems like user interfaces on-board trains or buses. Rather than simply being a display, panel PCs embed a complete SBC, providing a complete embedded solution. Circuit Cellar’s 2020 overview of representative panel PC products is available at [1].

In an example of such technology, in April Cincoze launched its CRYSTAL line of industrial panel PCs with sunlight-readable displays in various sizes and with a modular design (Figure 6). The sunlight-readable display models feature crystal clear displays for bright daylight viewing and are strong enough to withstand the rigors of the outdoors. They are suited to outdoor kiosk use in smart cities, such as smart bus kiosks, automatic ticket vending machines, vending machines, express cabinets, public information stations and smart mailboxes.

The Cincoze sunlight-readable panel PC series uses Cincoze’s patented Convertible Display System (CDS) modular design to combine an industrial touch display and an industrial embedded computer module to create an easy-maintenance, easy-upgrade and future-proof panel PC. The embedded system component offers various options including, Intel Atom, Pentium and Core i3/i5 processors, up to 64GB of memory and two 2.5″ HDDs/SSDs, selectable to match with system performance needs. For the display, there are options from 8″ to 21.5″ with projective capacitive (PCAP) touch displays, and high-brightness 1600 nits backlight that make them clearly visible even under outdoor sunlight.

In nearly three decades of covering the embedded electronics and computing industry, Jeff has also held senior editorial positions at EE Times, Computer Design, Electronic Design, Embedded Systems Development, and COTS Journal. His knowledge spans a broad range of electronics and computing topics, including CPUs, MCUs, memory, storage, graphics, power supplies, software development, and real-time OSes.

Typically, these types of displays use LED’s (Light Emitting Diodes) for each segment, and their color is commonly red. However, segmented LCD displays are also available. A picture of a typical seven-segment LED display is shown in Figure 1 below.

The most commonly available displays of these types are reflective LCD’s (Liquid Crystal Display). A picture of an LCD alphanumeric display is shown below in figure 2.

The last category of graphics displays is the LCD. These displays can have very high pixel densities, and can display a full range of colors with full motion capabilities.

This performance makes driving them quite complicated, and dedicated controller chips are needed for anything but the simplest models. Also note that many small to medium size LCD displays are also available with a touchscreen overlay.

An active matrix LCD is typically implemented using a Thin-Film-Transistor (TFT) technology. To manufacture a TFT display a thin film of silicon is deposited on a glass panel to form the transistors.

In bigger hospitals, proper coordination is needed for a well-organized operation of various departments. These include moving the patients efficiently. LCD monitors are being used in order to display related information about patients and improve their flow as well as increase their family’s awareness about their locations. It also shows which rooms are available, along with other important information.

Moreover, LCD screens could also function as a stand-alone TV and as a computer monitor. With these, it is capable of internet and local area network connectivity. In a hospital or any other bigger setting, such connectivity is useful to monitor several LCD screens remotely.

The modern day medical system are already utilizing the latest LCDs for a more detailed and accurate diagnosis. An example of this is a procedure called Mammography.

Advanced LCD monitors are now being used in hospitals and other medical facilities to deliver reliable medical-grade visualization and surgical displays. Some are even equipped with OR integration technologies.

LCD screens are being used in wards in order to monitor patients and their corresponding beds for information. Most hospitals have central monitor in the whole ward that can be used in case of any emergency along with other information in the area.

In the waiting rooms of most hospitals, LCD monitors are being used to share important medical information such as how to avoid catching dengue with corresponding images or videos. This acts as a way to inform or educate the visitors. LCD screens also acts as a TV and thus, provides entertainment in the waiting rooms of hospitals.

Many hospitals nowadays are using LCDs as digital navigation tools to lead their visitors around the area. Many of these have even touchscreen features.

Medical-grade LCD displays are markedly superior as compared to those which are designed for commercial use for a number of reasons. First, it underwent an inherent component and manufacturing quality process which are compliant to highly rigorous medical standards. It also passed very sophisticated QA control systems and software compatibility procedures.

The availability of a more advanced digital technology such as the latest LCD screens has changed the way medical facilities and hospitals operate. It plays an integral part in which the data about patients are being used and distributed. Because it is now a necessity in these amenities, the quality of such products must be considered carefully. iTech Company offers reliable

We come across Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) displays everywhere around us. Computers, calculators, television sets, mobile phones, and digital watches use some kind of display to display the time.

An LCD screen is an electronic display module that uses liquid crystal to produce a visible image. The 16×2 LCD display is a very basic module commonly used in DIYs and circuits. The 16×2 translates a display of 16 characters per line in 2 such lines. In this LCD, each character is displayed in a 5×7 pixel matrix.

Contrast adjustment; the best way is to use a variable resistor such as a potentiometer. The output of the potentiometer is connected to this pin. Rotate the potentiometer knob forward and backward to adjust the LCD contrast.

A 16X2 LCD has two registers, namely, command and data. The register select is used to switch from one register to other. RS=0 for the command register, whereas RS=1 for the data register.

Command Register: The command register stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A command is an instruction given to an LCD to do a predefined task. Examples like:

Data Register: The data register stores the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be displayed on the LCD. When we send data to LCD, it goes to the data register and is processed there. When RS=1, the data register is selected.

Generating custom characters on LCD is not very hard. It requires knowledge about the custom-generated random access memory (CG-RAM) of the LCD and the LCD chip controller. Most LCDs contain a Hitachi HD4478 controller.

CG-RAM address starts from 0x40 (Hexadecimal) or 64 in decimal. We can generate custom characters at these addresses. Once we generate our characters at these addresses, we can print them by just sending commands to the LCD. Character addresses and printing commands are below.

LCD modules are very important in many Arduino-based embedded system designs to improve the user interface of the system. Interfacing with Arduino gives the programmer more freedom to customize the code easily. Any cost-effective Arduino board, a 16X2 character LCD display, jumper wires, and a breadboard are sufficient enough to build the circuit. The interfacing of Arduino to LCD display is below.

The combination of an LCD and Arduino yields several projects, the most simple one being LCD to display the LED brightness. All we need for this circuit is an LCD, Arduino, breadboard, a resistor, potentiometer, LED, and some jumper cables. The circuit connections are below.

Industrial Display Systems provide a wide range of reliable displays from 5.7" to 55" including LCD displays, touch screen panels, outdoor displays and digital signage displays, and a series of industrial monitors including open frame monitors and panel mount monitors, which work perfectly with embedded boards and systems to fulfill various application needs.
