CHAPTER 6

Display Basics

6.1  INTRODUCTION

In the previous three chapters we explained the physics, optics, and physiology basic to the functioning of displays. However, there is more that needs to be considered in order to get a full picture. In addition to optics, for example, electronics plays an important role in display technology. The display electronics is mainly responsible for digital signal processing and for driving optical elements. But the assembly of optical, electronic, and possibly mechanical parts is also important, and can be as challenging as optical design. Assembly has to be designed well to give displays small form factors and to deal with other less obvious challenges, such as electromagnetic and thermal constraints. Many ...
