  3. LCD & LCM Differences • Liquid Crystal Display - User must decide what kind of driverto use. • LCD Module – Provides a PC Board. The driver chips are on the board ready to be used.

  4. Construction of LCD The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is formed with 6~10µm thick nematic liquid crystal sandwiched between two glass plates with transparent electrode patterns, and polarizers stationed on the outside of the two glass plate. 1.

  7. Definition of viewing angle The LCD changes in contrast depending on the direction of viewing and the range within which the display can be recognized is limited. Taking this recognizable range as the viewing angle, it is defined as below: Vertical area of definition Horizontal area of definition   1 2 Left Right Away from viewer Towards viewer

  8. Top = 2 (12 O’Clock) Top = 2 (12 O’Clock)  2  2  1  1 Bottom = 1 (6 O’Clock) Bottom = 1 (6 O’Clock) Definition of viewing angle For TN Type LCD For STN Type LCD

  10. What is a TN (Twisted Nematic) Mode LCD 90o • Twisted Nematic. • This is the abbreviation of Twisted Nematic field effect mode. This is the mode which arranges the liquid crystal molecules by controlling their movement with electric voltage (electric field) so as to twist them by 90o in the through the polarizer placed on the two upper lower plate of LCD by controlling the movement of the liquid crystal molecules. • Almost all of medium and small type segment-display LCDs are in this mode, which is therefore this is the most common mode.

  11. What is a STN (Super Twisted Nematic) Mode LCD ? Birefringence= 120240o Super Twisted Nematic • This is the abbreviation of Super Twisted Nematic field effect mode. While the TN mode arrange the liquid crystal molecules by twisting them by 90o ,the STN mode arrange them by giving a still larger twist and provides display by birefringence effect of liquid crystal. • The LCD structure in the STN mode is the same as that in liquid crystal, adopting birefringence effect, there is a color in the display and also a background color. In this STN mode, a wide-viewing angle view is obtained, and the STN offers a high-contrast display compared with the TN mode. Specially, it is widely used in large size full-dot matrix LCD module. • For colors, it has two modes depending on the combination of polarizer, namely, yellow mode and gray mode.
