Technologies


Types of Emerging Display! Non conventional, new display technologies..

ChLCD

(Cholesteric LCD)

QR-LPD

(Quick response liquid powder display)

Electrowetting

EPD

(Electrophoretic)

Flexible OLED

Flexible ChLCD


Display Type

Segment Type:

Each line driven by one segment

Passive dot matrix

Row of dot are driven line by line

Active dot matrix

Each dot driven by a transistor


Electrophoretic Display (EPD) Mechanism

Area Color


Cholestric Liquid Crystal (ChLCD)Low Magnitude Pulse

Large Magnitude Pulse

Bright: Planar state

Dark: Conic state

Intermediate state


QR-LPD

Similar to EPD, but use air instead of liquid


Electrowetting

No voltage applied:

Oil spreads in the cell

=> display color of oil

Voltage applied:

Oil pushed aside

=> display color of underlying reflective surface


Flexible OLED! OLED laminated at the flexible TFT substrate

Flexible substrate by thin metal or organic material


Emerging display

Advantages


Advantages of E-paperBistable = Bright and Dark (two stages)

Stable = No power to keep display state

Flexible & Thin (200um)

Simple Manufacturing! EPD: Roll to roll


Advantages of ChLCD

Bistable, no power

Flexible

Different choice of mono color


Advantages of QR-LPD

! Fast response time: 0.2ms

! Passive matrix display for dot matirx => no TFT substrate needed

! Area colors possible

! Wider op temp range: -30 ~ 50oC


Advantages of Electrowetting ! Image switching speeds <10ms

! >2x brightness of LCDs (no polarizers)

! Unlimited viewing angle

! Different color versatility

! Low power


Advantages of Flexible OLED

! Full color up to 16Million

! Self-emissive light

! Fast response: less than 1us image update

! Thin and flexible

Memory Device


Display on a USB thumb drive

! When the drive connected to the computer though the USB connector

! MCU will update write\read the Flash memory.

! MCU got the flash memory capacity information during data transaction.

! MCU control SSD1623 to output a corresponding driving waveform.

! SSD1623 drives the EPD to show the capacity information
