Graphic LCD modules

Add graphics capability to your microcontroller

Here is a selection of low-power COG (Chip on glass) and TFT LCDs that ideally fit portable designs. There are adaptor boards for some of them, allowing to use them with 2.54 mm pitch universal PCB.
The unit price is given for samples only. If you ned larger quantities, please contact us.


TFT color display 480 x 272 with touch panel
This LCD is one exception in our lineup since it is not a sub-milliamp display. It is a full color (24-bit) TFT display with a touch panel, which makes it a good candidate for many applications such as games, measurement instruments. Careful: there is no internal DRAM chip, which means that you have to constantly refresh the data,

240x160, 5-bit grayscale LCD module with backlight
This LCD is a complete solution with LED backlight. It can be powered with a single voltage (3 ~ 3.3V), backlight included. Its controller implements a windowing system allowing to define the area to be modified, therefore eliminating the need of moving the cursor and allowing to send data bytes without further care. The data transmission is 8-bit parallel, 1 byte per pixel. It can also be used in 16-bit parallel, 2 bytes for 3 pixels. An interface board (2.54mm pitch) is under development.
