A thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD) is a variant of a liquid-crystal display that uses thin-film-transistor technologyactive matrix LCD, in contrast to passive matrix LCDs or simple, direct-driven (i.e. with segments directly connected to electronics outside the LCD) LCDs with a few segments.

In February 1957, John Wallmark of RCA filed a patent for a thin film MOSFET. Paul K. Weimer, also of RCA implemented Wallmark"s ideas and developed the thin-film transistor (TFT) in 1962, a type of MOSFET distinct from the standard bulk MOSFET. It was made with thin films of cadmium selenide and cadmium sulfide. The idea of a TFT-based liquid-crystal display (LCD) was conceived by Bernard Lechner of RCA Laboratories in 1968. In 1971, Lechner, F. J. Marlowe, E. O. Nester and J. Tults demonstrated a 2-by-18 matrix display driven by a hybrid circuit using the dynamic scattering mode of LCDs.T. Peter Brody, J. A. Asars and G. D. Dixon at Westinghouse Research Laboratories developed a CdSe (cadmium selenide) TFT, which they used to demonstrate the first CdSe thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD).active-matrix liquid-crystal display (AM LCD) using CdSe TFTs in 1974, and then Brody coined the term "active matrix" in 1975.high-resolution and high-quality electronic visual display devices use TFT-based active matrix displays.

The liquid crystal displays used in calculators and other devices with similarly simple displays have direct-driven image elements, and therefore a voltage can be easily applied across just one segment of these types of displays without interfering with the other segments. This would be impractical for a large display, because it would have a large number of (color) picture elements (pixels), and thus it would require millions of connections, both top and bottom for each one of the three colors (red, green and blue) of every pixel. To avoid this issue, the pixels are addressed in rows and columns, reducing the connection count from millions down to thousands. The column and row wires attach to transistor switches, one for each pixel. The one-way current passing characteristic of the transistor prevents the charge that is being applied to each pixel from being drained between refreshes to a display"s image. Each pixel is a small capacitor with a layer of insulating liquid crystal sandwiched between transparent conductive ITO layers.

The circuit layout process of a TFT-LCD is very similar to that of semiconductor products. However, rather than fabricating the transistors from silicon, that is formed into a crystalline silicon wafer, they are made from a thin film of amorphous silicon that is deposited on a glass panel. The silicon layer for TFT-LCDs is typically deposited using the PECVD process.

Polycrystalline silicon is sometimes used in displays requiring higher TFT performance. Examples include small high-resolution displays such as those found in projectors or viewfinders. Amorphous silicon-based TFTs are by far the most common, due to their lower production cost, whereas polycrystalline silicon TFTs are more costly and much more difficult to produce.

The twisted nematic display is one of the oldest and frequently cheapest kind of LCD display technologies available. TN displays benefit from fast pixel response times and less smearing than other LCD display technology, but suffer from poor color reproduction and limited viewing angles, especially in the vertical direction. Colors will shift, potentially to the point of completely inverting, when viewed at an angle that is not perpendicular to the display. Modern, high end consumer products have developed methods to overcome the technology"s shortcomings, such as RTC (Response Time Compensation / Overdrive) technologies. Modern TN displays can look significantly better than older TN displays from decades earlier, but overall TN has inferior viewing angles and poor color in comparison to other technology.

Most TN panels can represent colors using only six bits per RGB channel, or 18 bit in total, and are unable to display the 16.7 million color shades (24-bit truecolor) that are available using 24-bit color. Instead, these panels display interpolated 24-bit color using a dithering method that combines adjacent pixels to simulate the desired shade. They can also use a form of temporal dithering called Frame Rate Control (FRC), which cycles between different shades with each new frame to simulate an intermediate shade. Such 18 bit panels with dithering are sometimes advertised as having "16.2 million colors". These color simulation methods are noticeable to many people and highly bothersome to some.gamut (often referred to as a percentage of the NTSC 1953 color gamut) are also due to backlighting technology. It is not uncommon for older displays to range from 10% to 26% of the NTSC color gamut, whereas other kind of displays, utilizing more complicated CCFL or LED phosphor formulations or RGB LED backlights, may extend past 100% of the NTSC color gamut, a difference quite perceivable by the human eye.

In 2004, Hydis Technologies Co., Ltd licensed its AFFS patent to Japan"s Hitachi Displays. Hitachi is using AFFS to manufacture high end panels in their product line. In 2006, Hydis also licensed its AFFS to Sanyo Epson Imaging Devices Corporation.

A technology developed by Samsung is Super PLS, which bears similarities to IPS panels, has wider viewing angles, better image quality, increased brightness, and lower production costs. PLS technology debuted in the PC display market with the release of the Samsung S27A850 and S24A850 monitors in September 2011.

TFT dual-transistor pixel or cell technology is a reflective-display technology for use in very-low-power-consumption applications such as electronic shelf labels (ESL), digital watches, or metering. DTP involves adding a secondary transistor gate in the single TFT cell to maintain the display of a pixel during a period of 1s without loss of image or without degrading the TFT transistors over time. By slowing the refresh rate of the standard frequency from 60 Hz to 1 Hz, DTP claims to increase the power efficiency by multiple orders of magnitude.

Due to the very high cost of building TFT factories, there are few major OEM panel vendors for large display panels. The glass panel suppliers are as follows:

External consumer display devices like a TFT LCD feature one or more analog VGA, DVI, HDMI, or DisplayPort interface, with many featuring a selection of these interfaces. Inside external display devices there is a controller board that will convert the video signal using color mapping and image scaling usually employing the discrete cosine transform (DCT) in order to convert any video source like CVBS, VGA, DVI, HDMI, etc. into digital RGB at the native resolution of the display panel. In a laptop the graphics chip will directly produce a signal suitable for connection to the built-in TFT display. A control mechanism for the backlight is usually included on the same controller board.

The low level interface of STN, DSTN, or TFT display panels use either single ended TTL 5 V signal for older displays or TTL 3.3 V for slightly newer displays that transmits the pixel clock, horizontal sync, vertical sync, digital red, digital green, digital blue in parallel. Some models (for example the AT070TN92) also feature input/display enable, horizontal scan direction and vertical scan direction signals.

New and large (>15") TFT displays often use LVDS signaling that transmits the same contents as the parallel interface (Hsync, Vsync, RGB) but will put control and RGB bits into a number of serial transmission lines synchronized to a clock whose rate is equal to the pixel rate. LVDS transmits seven bits per clock per data line, with six bits being data and one bit used to signal if the other six bits need to be inverted in order to maintain DC balance. Low-cost TFT displays often have three data lines and therefore only directly support 18 bits per pixel. Upscale displays have four or five data lines to support 24 bits per pixel (truecolor) or 30 bits per pixel respectively. Panel manufacturers are slowly replacing LVDS with Internal DisplayPort and Embedded DisplayPort, which allow sixfold reduction of the number of differential pairs.

The bare display panel will only accept a digital video signal at the resolution determined by the panel pixel matrix designed at manufacture. Some screen panels will ignore the LSB bits of the color information to present a consistent interface (8 bit -> 6 bit/color x3).

With analogue signals like VGA, the display controller also needs to perform a high speed analog to digital conversion. With digital input signals like DVI or HDMI some simple reordering of the bits is needed before feeding it to the rescaler if the input resolution doesn"t match the display panel resolution.

I am working on a project that interfaces an Atmel SAMA5D3 MCU with a LCD TFT display. The interface between both is 24-Bit parallel RGB with HSYNC and VSYNC signals. The resolution of the display is 800x480 pixels.

I also have implemented an OV5640 CMOS camera (not in the picture). It"s interface is 8-bit parallel. Trace length here is about 60mm. The clock rate is around 100 MHz as far as I know. It"s a 5 Megapixel camera. Do I have to meander the traces in this case?

Update #2: In order to learn high speed PCB design I read a document I found at Toradex which is very good in my opinion. On page 54 and page 66 the layout guidelines for 24 Bit RGB and Camera parallel interface are summarized like that: "[...] Max skew between data signal and <100ps ≈15mm, depends on pixel clock, requirement can be relaxed for lower clock resolution display [...]". I don"t get this en par with your answers. 100ps should allow for much larger trace variance than 15mm (as posted in the answers below)? The document can be found here: http://docs.toradex.com/101123-apalis-arm-carrier-board-design-guide.pdf.

There are many kinds of LCD interfaces, with wide range of applications. The classification criteria mainly depends on the driving mode and control mode of the LCD. At present, there are generally several connection modes for color LCDs on mobile phones: MCU mode, RGB mode, SPI mode, VSYNC mode, MDDI mode, DSI mode, etc. and only the TFT module has RGB interface.

It is mainly used in the field of single-chip microcomputers. Later, it is widely used in low-end mobile phones, and its main feature is that it is cheap. The standard term for the MCU-LCD interface is the 8080 bus standard proposed by Intel.

Therefore, 8080 is used to refer to the MCU-LCD screen in many documents. It can be mainly divided into 8080 mode and 6800 mode, and the difference between the two is mainly the timing. There are 8 bits, 9 bits, 16 bits, 18 bits, and 24 bits for data bit transfer. Connections are divided into: CS/, RS (register selection), RD/, WR/, and data lines. The advantages are: the control is simple and convenient, no clock and synchronization signals are required. The disadvantage is: it consumes GRAM, so it is difficult to achieve a large screen (above 3.8). For LCM with MCU interface, the internal chip is called LCD driver. The main function is to transform the data/command sent by the host into the RGB data of each pixel, so that it can be displayed on the screen. This process does not require point, line, frame clocks.

The LCD Driver IC of the MCU interface is equipped with GRAM. As a co-processor of the MCU, it accepts the Command/Data sent by the MCU and can work relatively independently. Pay attention to, the internal chip of LCD Module (LCM) is called the LCD driver. The main function is to transform the data/commands sent by the host computer into the RGB data of each pixel, so that it can be displayed on the screen. This process also does not require point, line, frame clocks.

In fact, this mode is to add a VSYNC signal to the MCU mode and applied to the update of the moving picture, which is very different from the above interface. This mode supports the function of direct animation display. It provides a solution for animation display with minimal changes to the MCU interface. In this mode, the internal display operation is synchronized with the external VSYNC signal. Animation display at a higher rate than internal operations can be achieved. However, due to the difference in its operation mode, this mode has a limit on the speed, that is, the write speed to the internal SRAM must be greater than the speed of the display read internal SRAM.

The large screen adopts more modes, and the data bit transmission also has the 6-, 16- and 18-, 24-bit. The connections are generally: VSYNC, HSYNC, DOTCLK, CS, RESET, some also need RS, and the rest is the data line. Its advantages and disadvantages are just the opposite of MCU mode. The main difference between the MCU-LCD screen and the RGB-LCD screen is the location of the video memory. The video memory of RGB-LCD is acted by system memory, so its size is only limited by the size of system memory. Where RGB-LCD can be made larger, such as 4.3" can only be regarded as entry-level, and 7" in MID, 10" screens have begun to be widely used. At the beginning of the design of MCU-LCD, it was only necessary to consider that the memory of the single-chip microcomputer was small, so the video memory was built into the LCD module, and then the software updated the video memory through special display commands with small MCU screen. At the same time, the display update speed is slower than RGB-LCD. The display data transmission mode is also different. RGB screen only needs to organize the data in the video memory. After starting the display, the LCD-DMA will automatically transfer the data in the video memory through the RGB interface to the LCM, while the MCU screen needs to send a drawing command to modify the internal RAM of the MCU (that is, the RAM of the MCU screen cannot be directly written).

Therefore, the RGB display speed is significantly faster than that of the MCU, and the MCU-LCD is also slower in terms of video playback. For the LCM of the RGB interface, the host directly outputs the RGB data of each pixel without conversion (except for GAMMA correction, etc.). For this interface, an LCD controller is required in the host part to generate RGB data and sync signals.

Here gives a note. The color TFT LCD screen mainly has 2 kinds of interfaces: TTL interface (RGB color interface), and LVDS interface (differential signal transmission). The TTL interface is mainly used for small-sized TFT screens below 12.1 inches, and the LVDS interface is mainly used for large-sized TFT screens above 8 inches. The TTL interface has many lines and the transmission distance is short, while the LVDS interface has a long transmission distance and a small number of lines. The large screen adopts more modes, the control pins are VSYNC, HSYNC, VDEN, VCLK, S3C2440 supports up to 24 data pins, and the data pin is VD[23-0].

Qualcomm"s MDDI, which can improve the reliability of mobile phones and reduce power consumption by reducing wiring. It will replace SPI mode as a high-speed serial interface in the mobile field.

RGB interface mode: The display data is not written into DDRAM, but directly written to the screen, which is fast and often used to display video or animation.

The commonly used interfaces of TFT-LCD, including TTL (RGB), LVDS, EDP, and MIPI. Here roughly talk about the basic principles of the signal composition of these interfaces.

The TTL interface is an interface for transmitting data in parallel. When using it, it is not necessary to use a dedicated interface circuit at the driver board end and the LCD panel end of the liquid crystal display, but the TTL data signal output by the main control chip of the driver board is transmitted through the cable. It is directly transmitted to the input interface of the LCD panel. Due to the high signal voltage, many connections and long transmission cables of the TTL interface, the anti-interference ability of the circuit is relatively poor, and it is easy to generate electromagnetic interference (EMI). In practical applications, TTL interface circuits are mostly used to drive small-size (below 15in) or low-resolution LCD panels. The highest pixel clock of TTL is only 28MHz.

The TTL output interface of the driver board generally includes three types of signals: RGB data signal, clock signal and control signal. As shown below:

As for it, there are 18 RGB data lines in total, including 6 R0~R5 red primary color data lines, 6 G0~G5 green primary color data lines, 6 B0~B5 blue primary color data lines, a total of 18 strips. Since the primary color RGB data is 18bit, it is also called 18-bitTTL interface.

For it, there are a total of 24 RGB data lines, including 8 R0~R7 red primary color data lines, 8 B0~B7 green primary color data lines, 8 BO~B7 blue primary color data lines, a total of 24 strips. Since the primary color RGB data is 24-bit, it is also called 24-bit TTL interface.

It has 36 RGB data lines in total, including 18 odd RGB data lines, 18 even RGB data lines. Since the primary color ROB data is 36-bit, it is also called 36-bitTTL interface.

It has 48 RGB data lines, including 24 odd RGB data lines and 24 even RGB data lines. Since the primary color RGB data is 48bit, it is also called 48-bit TTL interface.

It refers to the pixel clock signal, which is the benchmark for transmitting data and reading the data signal. When using odd/even pixel dual way to transmit RGB data, different output interfaces use different methods of pixel clock. Some output interface odd/even pixel dual data share a pixel clock signal, and the others set odd pixel data clock and even pixel two clock signals to meet the needs of different LCD panels.

The control signals include a data enable signal (or an effective display data strobe signal) DE, a horizontal sync signal HS, and a vertical sync signal VS.

LVDS is a low-voltage differential signaling technology interface. A digital video signal transmission method developed to overcome the shortcomings of large power consumption and large EMI electromagnetic interference when transmitting broadband high bit rate data in TTL level mode. The LVDS output interface uses a very low voltage swing (about 350mV) to transmit data differentially on two PCB traces or a pair of balanced cables, that is, low-voltage differential signaling. Using the LVDS output interface, the signal can be transmitted at a rate of several hundred Mbit/s on the differential PCB line or balanced cable. Due to the low-voltage and low-current driving method, low noise and low power consumption are achieved.

In a liquid crystal display, the LVDS interface circuit includes two parts, the LVDS output interface circuit (LVDS transmitter) on the motherboard side and the LVDS input interface circuit (LVDS receiver) on the LCD panel side. The LVDS emitter converts the TTL signal into an LVDS signal, and then transmits the signal to the LVDS decoding IC on the receiving end through the flexible cable (line) between the driver board and the LCD panel, and the LVDS receiver then serializes the serial signal which is converted into a parallel signal of TTL level, and sent to the LCD screen timing control and row and column drive circuit. In other words, TFT only recognizes TTL (RGB) signals.

When LVDS transmits data with higher resolution, the anti-interference ability is relatively strong. But when the resolution is higher than 1920×1080, the single channel is overwhelmed, so there is a dual interface. Its purpose is very simple, speed up and enhance anti-interference ability.

EDP is a communication interface of the computer display screen. The resolution of the computer using the EDP display interface will be higher than that of the LVDS interface. Generally, high-definition screens use this communication interface. It is a fully digital interface based on the DisplayPort architecture and protocol. It can transmit high-resolution signals with simpler connectors and fewer pins, and can achieve simultaneous transmission of multiple data, so the transmission rate is much higher than LVDS.

Compared with the LVDS interface, the MIPI interface is rare, but in fact, it has many advantages. The MIPI interface module has the advantages of high speed, large amount of data transmission, low power consumption, and good anti-interference when compared with the parallel port. It is more and more favored by customers and is growing rapidly. For example, an 8M module with both MIPI and parallel port transmission requires at least 11 transmission lines and an output clock of up to 96M to achieve a full pixel output of 12FPS when using an 8-bit parallel port. Channel 6 transmission lines can achieve a frame rate of 12FPS at full pixels, and the current consumption will be about 20MA lower than that of parallel port transmission. Since MIPI uses differential signal transmission, the design needs to be strictly designed according to the general rules of differential design. The key is to achieve differential impedance matching. The MIPI protocol stipulates that the differential impedance of the transmission line is 80-125 ohms.

16x2 LCD means that there are two rows in which 16 characters can be displayed per line, and each character takes 5X7 matrix space on LCD. ... In this tutorial we are going to connect 16X2 LCD module to the 8051 microcontroller (AT89S52).

LCD Displays that use a parallel interface include Character, Graphic and TFT. ... The initial step is to energize the LCD. Reads and Writes are sent via 8 data lines and 3 control lines. These control lines are Read/Write (R/W), Enable (E) and Register Select (RS).

A TFT LCD display module consists of a TFT LCD panel, one or more COG (chip-on-glass) or COB (chip-on-board) driver ICs, a backlight, and an interface. Several TFT display interface technologies exist today. Picking the right interface depends on specific end-product concerns.

The MCU interface hastwo standard types, theIntel-8080 and Motorolla-6800 series. These interfaces communicate through read, write and chip-select signals to address registers or display RAM. The slight difference between the two pertains to the direction and separation of the write and read signals.

These interfaces communicate through read, write and chip-select signals to address registers or display RAM. Depending on color depth (8, 9, 16 or 18-bit), MCU sends RGB signals directly to LCM"s display memory.

TFT is a kind of LCD. The TFT(Thin Film Field-effect Transistor) is a video in which every single pixel in the liquid crystal display is actuated by a Thin Film Transistor embedded in the rear. Thus can achieve high speed, high brightness, high contrast display screen information.
