NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW

The NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW is an LCD module designed and supplied by Newhaven Display. It is a 2x8 character module suitable for displaying messages or other related data. It is a cost-effective and readily available solution for small-scale application needs in various industries.

The module comes with two lines of eight characters each, each with pixel spacing of 5.55mm. This enables a wide range of texts and alphanumeric characters to be displayed clearly and legibly. The module features a high contrast ratio that makes the display easily visible even in challenging lighting conditions. For applications where light is present but its intensity is low, the module can be backlit for easier visibility.

The module is built on an LCM (Liquid Crystal Module) platform that employs NOKIA cell technology. This ensures reliable operations with lower operating power consumption. The module is compatible with a wide range of driver controllers, such as HD44780, SPLC780D0 and KS0066Z, which makes it easier to connect and control the display. The NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW also supports both 8-bit and4-bit operation.

The NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW is a versatile LCD module with wide range applications, making it a cost-effective solution for many types of applications. Some of its applications include:

1. Industrial Applications – Displaying messages in industrial and manufacturing settings.
2. Medical Applications – Display of important data and information in healthcare facilities.
3. Vehicle Applications – Displaying data related to engine performance, fuel usage, and other related information in vehicles.
4. Retail Applications – Displaying product information and other related message for customers in retail stores.
5. Consumer Applications – Displaying messages and instructions in digital devices, home appliances and more.

The NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW works based on the principle of electro-optic modulation. This involves the use of two transparent layers of material that have a liquid-crystal solution in between them. The liquid crystal molecules will not allow any light to pass through when electric potential is applied to it. This is used to construct the images and characters that will be displayed on the LCD module.

The electric potential is provided by the display driver connected to the module. The driver is responsible for controlling the characters, symbols and other images that will be displayed on the LCD module. Each character is divided into smaller segments and these segments are activated through the driver circuit. By changing the combination of these segments, different characters and symbols can be displayed.

The module also features a backlight that can be turned on or off as needed. The backlight consists of two layers of light diffuser and light guide sheets. The light is generated by the light source and then diffused by the top light diffuser sheet. The light is then guided to the panel area by the reflection of the light guide sheet. This ensures that the text and other symbols are legible even in low lighting conditions.

The NHD-0208AZ-RN-YBW is a highly versatile LCD module that provides a cost-effective solution for many types of application needs. With its reliable operation capabilities and wide range compatibility, it is a suitable solution for many different applications.
