Anders Electronics has introduced small sizes to its colour STN (CSTN) range of displays and offers displays in sizes of 2.2-inch, 2.8-inch and 2.9-inch. All displays are available in transmissive or transflective modes. The range includes a 2.2-inch CSTN featuring a resolution of 128 (RGB) x 64 pixels measuring 69.8mm x 85.2mm. A 6V LED backlight delivers screen brightness up to 300cd/m2, with built-in DC/DC converter, while the 60:1 contrast ratio provides sharp definition for graphics and images. The 8-bit parallel interface is suitable for use with an 8080-compatible host MCU.
The 2.8-inch CSTN measures 79.4mm x 69.3mm, and features 128 (RGB) x 128 pixels with a 3.2V LED backlight producing up to 212cd/m2. The controller provided implements a 6800-compatible interface for integration to a wide variety of host controllers.
The 2.9-inch CSTN with a thickness of 1.6mm and offering 128 (RGB) x 160 pixels has a 9.6V LED backlight delivering a total screen brightness up to 210cd/m2. The 16-bit 8080-compatible interface provides support for complex graphics and imaging modes.
All of the CSTNs introduced by Anders operate from –20°C to +70°C, to serve a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications requiring improved aesthetics and user-interface graphics capabilities. Common features across the range include a built-in DC-to-DC converter, as well as an integrated controller on a printed-circuit tail. The connector also has alignment holes and attached tape to facilitate assembly. The displays feature a backing plate with L-groove design to protect the corners of the LCD.
