The 7-inch EA eDIPTFT70-ATC color display from ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY sets standards for the development of interactive operating systems. It not only shines with a brilliant display and a resolution of 800x480 pixels; its built-in intelligence also offers users innovative and convenient options for implementing interactive controls. For example, a virtual keyboard can be integrated directly into the graphic display.
These features make programming interactive user interfaces much easier. In conjunction with the touch panel, the virtual keyboard can be conjured up on the screen with just a few high-level language-like program instructions. The touch panel is available in a capacitive and a resistive version. The range of functions also includes an "edit box", with the help of which the user can visualize his entries and correct them if necessary before sending them.
Programming is very simple - powerful high-level language-like instructions increase productivity when implementing solutions and speed up the development process. For example, lines, areas and bar graphs can be defined and output with a single command. The appearance, size, placement and function of keys and buttons can also be defined in next to no time.
In addition, the EA eDIPTFT70-ATC offers a variety of other features that support convenient programming and sophisticated image design. For example, the display has an integrated flash memory in which fonts, images, animations or macros can be stored. Eight fonts are already predefined; they can be scaled and varied using various parameters. It is also possible to import TrueType fonts. Measured values can be displayed using predefined virtual analog instruments; these instruments can be adapted to a wide range of user requirements. Integrated macro pages and string tables can also be used to conveniently design the display content in multiple languages - important for applications in devices, machines and systems that are intended to serve export markets.
An evaluation kit is available for starting development projects with the EA eDIPTFT70-ATC. This can be connected via a USB interface to a computer on which the actual software development takes place.
Integrating the intelligent display into a device or system controller is technically very simple. Three different interfaces are available for communication with the system. Only a single voltage is required for the power supply. The product range includes 6 other displays from 3.2" to 5.7"
