What is CSTN?

CSTN (Colour Super-Twist Nematic) is a Liquid Crystal based Display technology that produces full-colour paper-like image. Unlike TFT, CSTN is based on a passive matrix, which is less expensive to manufacture. Recent advances in technology and manufacturing process have made CSTN an economical alternative to active matrix displays.

The advantages of using CSTN:

Economical solution
- produces TFT comparable image quality at a low cost

Easy to customize solution
- resolution and display size can be tailored to suit
customer's specification

Easy upgrade from monochrome
- Limited software and hardware modification are
necessary to run CSTN display with 8051 microcontoller

Low power consumption
- from 0.7 mW; Lower heat output
