Blue seven-segment displays for critical applications

1 June 2005 Opto-Electronics

BivarOpto has introduced a blue seven-segment display for applications that require dependable operation, such as medical and life support systems, avionics, industrial controls, and where the greater eye appeal and colour enhancement will improve accurate visual perception and attention.

Each segment of the new 25,4 mm seven-segment display features two chips in series that results in high uniformity, and tight BIN control processes for greatest brightness and colour. These new seven-segment displays employ Cree Technology-based dice, the same high-efficiency InGaN chips as used in BivarOpto's discrete and surface mounted (SMD) LED products - a geometrically-enhanced design to maximise light extraction efficiency, while operating at low current.

The new BD Blue Series is available in a range of single-digit, seven-segment LED displays, ranging in five different digit heights from 7,7 mm to 25,4 mm, in 24 different styles and models. Connection and the choice of either common anode or common cathode circuitry enables use in any numeric display configuration, including right and left hand decimal, including 18 alpha characters. Standard wavelength is 465 nm (peak), featuring a specially compounded diffused lens for even colour distribution. Standard face colour is black with white diffused segments. Other segment or face colours are available by special order. Segment displays in multidigit arrays from 2-8 with overflow (±) and clock display options are also available.
