OEM LCD Seven Segment Display HTN Blue 5V LCD Screen With PCB Board

Applications of HTN Segment LCDs:

HTN segment LCDs are commonly found in devices where high contrast and clear legibility are essential, including:

• Digital Watches: Many low-power, inexpensive digital watches use HTN segment LCDs to display time.
•  
• Clocks: Used in alarm clocks, wall clocks, and other timekeeping devices.
•  
• Calculators: Simple, low-power calculators often use HTN segment LCDs for displaying numbers and basic symbols.
•  
• Home Appliances: Common in products like microwaves, washing machines, and ovens, where simple alphanumeric displays are used for settings and information.
•  
• Automotive Displays: In dashboards and instrument clusters for showing speed, fuel level, temperature, or other metrics.
•  
• Industrial and Scientific Equipment: Used in meters, counters, and diagnostic devices that need a clear and easily readable display.

Key Features of HTN Segment LCDs:

HTN Technology:

High-Twist Nematic (HTN) displays are an enhanced version of the classic TN (Twisted Nematic) LCD technology. The twist in the liquid crystals is more pronounced, which improves the contrast ratio and overall visibility of the display.

• In an HTN display, the liquid crystal molecules are arranged in a highly twisted orientation when no voltage is applied. This causes the liquid crystals to block light, resulting in a dark background.
• When a voltage is applied, the liquid crystals untwist, allowing light to pass through, which makes the segments of the display visible.

Segment Display:

Segment displays typically consist of 7-segment or 14-segment arrangements that can be turned on or off to create readable characters (usually numbers, sometimes letters or symbols).

• The segments are controlled individually, and the display can show numeric digits, alphanumeric characters, or simple symbols depending on the configuration.
• These displays are commonly monochromatic (e.g., a single color like black, blue, or green).
