Only 10 mA for a colour display?

Developers of flat and compact mobile devices are regularly faced with the challenge of integrating a modern display that is not only colourful, but also energy-saving so as not to put additional strain on the battery and to achieve long operating times overall.

The latest EA TFT024-23 colour display is specially designed for such mobile applications and offers an outstanding combination of energy efficiency and colour brilliance. With a size of 2.4 inches, 18-bit colour depth and an excellent resolution of 240×320 pixels, its colouring enables it to deliver razor-sharp and informative images. Thanks to special polarisers and the latest low-power technology, power consumption has been significantly reduced to just 30 mW. This notable extends the battery life of measuring devices, wearables and other portable equipment. The new display is also characterised by its flat yet robust design of just 3 mm. It is also perfectly legible in direct sunlight, even without lighting.

Thanks to its compact dimensions of 43 x 84 x 3 mm and a pin-saving SPI interface, it can be easily integrated into a wide range of mobile devices. Even small 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers are suitable for control. Application examples including a test board for the Raspberry Pi Zero are available. The display is designed for 3.3 V systems and can also be LED-illuminated with up to 60 mA.

The new EA TFT024-23ATNN low-power colour display is now available and can be purchased from the webshop of DISPLAY VISIONS and all authorised sales partners. Excellent support and long-term availability are guaranteed – including tips and tricks for low-power applications.
