#memory-LCD #displays #hardware being used in a bicycle computer: “The MIP display utilizes LTPS ( Low Temperature Poly Silicon ) technology to form memory circuits in each pixel. Each of these pixels is addressable, containing a 1-bit memory cell for storing information. (...) Because of this, TFT displays have power consumptions more than 40 times higher, requiring more electricity than a MIP display.”

Apparently they currently have an “LS044Q7DH01” that’s 4.4" (95×75mm), 320×240 (“QVGA”), 100μW hold power, 600μW 1Hz update power. It costs US$75 at Digi-Key! #electronics
on 02025-10-13#EEVblog #video about #low-power #LCD #displays (like 14.3μA at 3.3V, up to 25μA during updates, 2.9" diagonal and 384×168) and why he prefers them to #e-ink: e-ink takes tens or hundreds of milliamps for a second or two to update. And service life is only 5 years or 10 million switches. He’s going to try the nice high-resolution ST7305-based #good-display.com (Dalian Good Display Co., Ltd.) reflective active matrix TFT LCD, even though the MOQ is 1000, because they sent him a demo board. It’s a nice high-contrast black and white and a very wide viewing angle despite (I think?) not being #memory-LCD. @mikeselectricstuff says the ST7305 datasheet says it supports up to 30Mbps over SPI. @afreestone101 says that if you peel the polarizer layer off the memory LCDs, the black color becomes mirror shiny. #electronics #hardware

Eight minutes in we get a playthrough of Taxi Trouble, a 2-D game, which seems to use just three stipples: black, white, and grey. Then Shift, a 2-D matching-pieces-disappearing puzzle game, etc. No actual footage of the screen apparently. I didn’t finish watching.
