TFT & Standard Graphic

You like to replace your 128x64 graphics display (monochrome) with a color display? We have the solution and show you how to do.

Our TFT color displays with 2.0" and 2.8" are the further development of the widespread black&white graphic displays: simply connected via SPI interface and therefore suitable for all μC. Alternatively, these small TFTs can also be connected via the classic RGB interface or an 8- or 16-bit data bus.

With its 2" diagonal, the EA TFT020-23AI is indeed a tiny, but the fine resolution of 240x320 pixels conjures up brilliant images at crispy 1000cd/m². The IPS technology provides a gigantic all-round viewing angle with sunlight readability.

Both displays are available without and with touch panel (including controller for I²C bus).

Part number	Size	Dimension	Touch	Webshop
EA TFT020-23AINN	2,0"	36x52mm	-
EA TFT020-23AITC		43x65mm	PCAP
EA TFT028-23AINN	2,8"	48x68mm	-
EA TFT028-23AITC		58x84mm	PCAP

Who is not already desperate at the different pin assignments and connector types with different TFT displays? This is now the end. All TFT displays from our company have an identical connection with 40 pins in a grid of 0.5mm. Also the pin assignment itself is almost identical. A matching ZIFF connector is available as an accessory.

The displays have been developed especially for industrial applications and are available for long term. The lifetime is 50,000 hours and the operating temperature range is from -20°C to +70°C. For the backlighting, bright high-quality LEDs are installed.

Normally the displays are available ex stock.

LCD graphics displays for the 8-bit data bus in a variety of sizes and resolutions up to 5.7". Besides the standard displays we also do provide some with Built-in Intelligence, Control Units with Touch Panel and serial interface RS-232, SPI or I²C bus. Many displays already have an integrated controller. This enables individual pixels to be set and deleted. In addition, the T6963C controller permits the use of an integrated 6x8 character set. The various displays are available both without illumination and with a variety of types of illumination:

• LED illumination: yellow/green in color, problem-free 5V= supply voltage, extremely long life with 100,000 h 
• LED illumination white/blue: 5V= supply voltage, half-brightness 10,000~50,000h long life, blue design - EL foil: blue, requires an EL inverter, energy-saving, limited life 
• CFL tube: white, CFL inverter required, very bright, only possible with larger displays.

Accessiories for graphics displays include appropriate High-Level-Graphics-Controllers, character sets, bezels and illumination inverters.

You will find specific information on each display in the table below under "Data sheet". Detailed information on the programming of the different controllers is provided here: Data sheet for the integrated Graphic Controller. 

New are the TFT Color-Displays with 3.5", 4.3", 5.7" and 7". They do provide a digital interface with 3x8 = 24 bit (16 million colors). The backlight is realised with high-efficiency LED's. 

New and very compact are also the EA DOG displays: super flat, 3.3V single supply, SPI interface and min. 16 different color combinations.

Built-in character sets, graphic functions, adjustable backlight, full touch panel support; these are world-wide unique features. No more working with pixel, but using more than 112 powerful graphic functions. With integrated FLASH for more fonts, pictures and macros. Last but not least there is a cost-free simulator software for the EA eDIP240-7 and a starter kit with USB. Read more about this fine displays on our page eDIP.

ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY offers a wide variety of graphics displays with a serial interface, integrated graphics functions and an optional touch panel. 
They are highly complex and thus ideal for rapid and uncomplicated design. The developer has immediate access to a wide variety of fonts and graphics functions. 
You will find more information on our rs232 page.

LCD graphics units are intelligent graphics displays with an RS-232 serial interface.
With two or three integrated character sets and a wide range of graphics functions, they permit the use of the latest LCD graphics displays, thus saving time and costs.

Apart from a supply voltage of +5V and RS-232 data, no further signals are required. No additional software or drivers are required for their operation.

All the graphics routines are integrated in the display's in-built high-level graphics controller. This permits the creation of a clear and attractive display using only a few commands.

• Character sets for graphics LCDs:
  The SED1520 and HD61202 graphics controllers do not have their own character set, so this has to be made available externally. ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY therefore offers a FontEditor EA USBSTICK-FONT for Windows plus different character sets from 4x6 (micro) to 16x32 pixels. There are also two Cyrillic character sets (6x8 and 8x16 and al lot more can be digitalized) on this USB stick. All the character sets can be edited and modified. 
  The export function generates a C- and Basic source code as an include file to your software. 
  Also included is a converter software for *.bmp files. Here's the data sheet.
• Bezels:
  Bezels with an anti-glare screen are available for some graphics displays. The bezels are simply inserted into the opening in the front panel. This gives your unit a professional look, and at the same time the anti-glare screen prevents the integrated display from being touched or getting dirty. The anti-glare screen makes the display considerably easier to read. Please refer to the table above for the order numbers of the various bezels. You will find more information on bezels in our data sheet, which is available in PDF format.
• High-level graphics controllers:
  The programming of graphics displays is considerably more complex than that of dot-matrix displays, which explains why there are controller ICs, which already contain character sets and a wide range of graphics functions. This saves time and costs in development. They are controlled via RS-232.
