Wireless PCAP Technology: efficiency comes cable free.

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.

Bringing clarity to the world of MIPI and LVDS

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.

Spotlight on Embedded – June 2023

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…

Landscape or portrait, MipiPlus 5.5” fills the gap

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.
Medical displays

Sensitive sensors without the ghosts: Avnet HMIs for surgery are strong, safe and reliable

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.

The world isn’t standard, and neither are TARTAN displays!

Stretched displays are readily available in a wide variety of standard sizes (from sizes 23.6” to 58.4”), but our customers frequently require them to be tailored to the specific needs of their applications. So, when size matters, the flexibility of TARTAN, part of the AUO Display Plus series family, could be just what you need.

Spotlight on Embedded – May 2023

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!

Innolux High Brightness TFT displays: designed for the great outdoors

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.

Another new arrival! 10.1” joins the MipiPlus family

It only feels like a few minutes ago that we shared the news of our MipiPlus 7”, 7.8” and 4” products, but already we have another addition to offer. It’s a testament not only to the popularity of MipiPlus, but the speed at which we are able to launch new tested and proven variations into our portfolio – especially one with an interface as challenging to integrate as MIPI.
