The EA eDIP intelligent graphic displays with optional touch-screen offer a simple development experience and design cycle. Create within minutes functional layouts with any text font, static or animated graphics. Simply connect the display via the serial, I2C or SPI interface to a low cost micro controller, PLC or PC. Control the display and touch-screen with powerful and easy to learn commands. The display also has a terminal mode where all data sent to the display is displayed. Usually a processor controls the display. The display also be used standalone for example to run a slide show or to navigate a menu layout without requirement of an external controller.

Evaluation Kits
The EA EVAL-eDIP development kits designed by Display Visions contain everything required to start development with the eDIP intelligent displays. The box includes the eDIP display with touch-screen, program board with USB port, USB cable and the LCD Tools software.
The EVAL board support USB, serial, SPI, I2C, RS232 and RS485 interface.
Powerful commands
The eDIP displays are pre-loaded with 7 built-in fonts. Each character set can be enlarged 4 times their original size. A simple command rotates text by 90° for landscape or portrait presentation. New fonts can be added to the LCD display at any time with the free LCD tools. Any Windows™ font already in the Windows font folder can loaded onto display. New character sets such as Cyrillic, Arabic or Chinese can be used. All commands are fully explained in the detailed datasheet.
The EA eDIPTFT32-A, EA eDIPTFT43-A, EA eDIPTFT57-A and EA eDIPTFT70-A displays have commands to design rotary (gauge) instruments. User can adjust picture, colour, text, scale and pointer rotation. Instruments can be linked directly to the analogue port, touch-screen or serial interface.
