Cables. We expect, like us, you have a love/hate relationship with them. On the one hand, for most applications when a TFT is connected to a touch, the complete Stack is connected over a short cable to a board. And that works just fine. After all, for this kind of application, a wireless PCAP makes no sense.
Where displays are concerned, plenty of acronyms fly around. MIPI is one, LVDS and RGB/TTL are some others. You’d expect all three to be completely different, but life is never that precise, is it? For example, MIPI displays also use LVDS standards and as puzzling as that might sound, there are actually some fairly sound reasons for it.
Our partners at Tianma have just released a thinner, smaller, lower cost QVGA display, ideal for the industrial market, HVAC systems or anywhere that requires a smaller HMI.
Welcome to the June issue of Avnet Embedded Spotlight. This month we’re featuring System-on-Modules, Kontron motherboards and looking at the opportunities for healthcare and medical. Let’s dive into this month’s news…
Thin, light, low power, low brightness, our industrial customers have fully embraced the MipiPlus range for its excellent value and our ability to integrate it into their products seamlessly. So, it will come as no surprise that we are able to offer another new addition to our ever-growing portfolio.
Capacitive sensors are great – highly reliable and have a wide range of functions. But in the medical world there are some very particular requirements around the service life of such sensitive sensor technologies.
Welcome to the May issue of Avnet Embedded Spotlight. This month we’ve got new products around AIoT from our franchise partners, motherboards and a reminder all about displays. Let us know if there is anything you’d like to see in an up and coming issue of Spotlight. And don’t forget, if you have an embedded project you’d like to talk about with our team, we’re here to help!
To support the development of demanding industrial products, Avnet Embedded offers a broad portfolio of innovative embedded computing modules based on powerful 13th and 12th Gen Intel Core series processors.
We are frequently asked if we can replace old membrane keypads with a new PCAP design. It makes sense, as the membrane design can present many problems – particularly as it ages. Simply put, membrane keys are less durable and their PET foil, which controls responsiveness, can and will break with frequent use.
Plenty of displays need to be able to cope with the varying demands of outdoor use – think EV chargers, construction sites, agricultural vehicles, boats and many more. Displays in these highly variable locations are not only exposed to the elements but feel the full force of heavy duty use every day. As a result, Innolux has launched a new line of high brightness TFT displays that are more than up to the challenge.
