  • PCA85276 Automotive 40 X 4 LCD Driver Rev
    PCA85276 Automotive 40 x 4 LCD driver Rev. 3 — 12 November 2018 Product data sheet 1. General description The PCA85276 is a peripheral device which interfaces to almost any Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)1 with low multiplex rates. It generates the drive signals for any static or multiplexed LCD containing up to four backplanes and up to 40 segments. It can be easily cascaded for larger LCD applications. The PCA85276 is compatible with most microcontrollers and communicates via the two-line bidirectional I2C-bus. Communication overheads are minimized by a display RAM with auto-incremented addressing, by hardware subaddressing, and by display memory switching (static and duplex drive modes). For a selection of NXP LCD segment drivers, see Table 23 on page 45. 2.

    Project Number: MQP-SJB-1A09 UTILIZING LEDs AS FEEDBACK SENSORS FOR VIDEO DISPLAYS A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering by ______________________________ Dan Cianfrocco ______________________________ Tuen Hung Lee ______________________________ Eric Renzulli March 5, 2010 Sponsoring Organization: NECAMSID _____________________________________ Professor Stephen J. Bitar, Major Advisor _____________________________________ Professor John A. McNeill, Co-Advisor Abstract The purpose of this project was to demonstrate as a proof of concept that LED emitters within outdoor video displays can also be utilized as optical feedback sensors for self-calibration. The emission and sensing characteristics of new and degraded LEDs were measured and studied to determine the effectiveness of using LEDs as sensors. A small-scale, adjustable LED driver with a closed-loop feedback control system was designed to illustrate self-calibration without extra sensing components. LED current was automatically adjusted to maintain proper LED brightness and color, while utilizing an adjacent LED as a sensor. Test results show that the self- calibration control system is viable and effective. Further work is necessary to determine system proficiency for large scale LED video displays. i Executive Summary LEDs have been universally used in many applications as light emitters in recent years due to rapid technological advancements. They are widely known for their energy efficiency, low heat dissipation, small size, durability, and long lifetime. One of the applications that LEDs have dominated is large-scale outdoor video displays, such as stadium displays, billboards, and large outdoor televisions.

  • Color Display Driver Circuit and Driver Development for Embedded System Based on ARM Microcontroller
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2016): 79.57 | Impact Factor (2017): 7.296 Color Display Driver Circuit and Driver Development for Embedded System Based on ARM Microcontroller Harini H M1, Ravikumar M N2 1, 2VTU University, Malnad College of Engineering, Salagame Road, 573202, Hassan Abstract: Displays generally handle data input as character maps or bitmaps. In character-mapping mode, a display has a pre- allocated amount of pixel space for each character. In bitmap mode, it receives an exact representation of the screen image that is to be projected in the form of a sequence of bits that describe the color values for specific x and y coordinates starting from a given location on the screen. Displays that handle bitmaps are also known as all-points addressable displays. A display driver supports a particular family of display controllers and all displays which are connected to one or more of these controllers [2]. The drivers can be configured by modifying their configuration files whereas the driver itself does not need to be modified. The configuration files contain all required information for the driver including how the hardware is accessed and how the controllers are connected to the display. EmWin handles all access to the display. Keywords: ST77335 TFT LCD, STM32F103 MCU, STemWin Library 1.
