The EA eDIPTFT57-A intelligent display from Electronic Assembly is designed for implementation in a range of mechanical engineering and industrial electronics applications.
The high contrast colour screen has an led background illumination and a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. It is said to offer built-in intelligence to facilitate integration of the display modules into the application, and comes with an accompanying evaluation kit.
The kit includes everything needed to get started, including an evaluation/programmer board, EA eDIPTFT57-ATP color display, usb cable, touch panel, plug top power supply (with international adapters) and a mini dvd containing software, documentation and sample macros.
The evaluation board has a usb port for communication with the pc. Interface boards with RS-232, RS-485, I²C and SPI interfaces for communication with the host are optional features but they are nevertheless included with the kit.
An array of leds provides information about data traffic and the status of the digital outputs of the display. Two potentiometers and eight buttons are fitted to the evaluation board to emulate sensors, switches or relay contacts in the target application.
