The drive to have less

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

The current economy has driven business to do more with less. This is very true in the electronics industry.

We are constantly driven to manufacture Character, Graphic and Static (Segment) LCD Displays that take up less room and meets RoHS standards in a shorter amount of time.

The push to design products to use less power is not new. The International Energy Agency (IEA) is pushing to have the US meet new power saving requirements. The goal is to minimize the amount of power necessary when a product such as a cell phone is in ‘sleep mode’.

At Focus Display Solutions we are expanding our Character and Static LCD display modules to operate at 3.3V instead of the standard 5V. This is true for both our custom (engineered and designed) LCD display and standard LCD monochrome display.

Every Segment Display, 7 (seven) segment, 14 (fourteen) segment and 16 (sixteen) segment has the option of both 3.3 volt and 4.7 volt. All three options of segment displays (STN, TN and FSTN) are available. See http://focuslcd.com/static.php for more details.

We also offer Alphanumeric LCD displays, also known as Character LCD’s, in both 4.7 volt and 3.3 volt. The most common of these are 8 x 1 LCD Display, 8 x 2 LCD Display, 16 x 1 LCD Display, 16 x 2 LCD Display, 16 x 4 LCD Display, 20 x 2 LCD Display, 20 x 4 LCD Display, 24 x 2 LCD Display, 40 x 1 LCD Display, 40 x 2 LCD Display, 40 x 4 LCD Display,

All of our Numeric LCD Displays are monochrome.
