Large 7-Segment Display Board -  a resizeable display from 40mm to 150mm! __ Contact: P. Townshend EduTek Ltd

LCD 2 USB -  LCD2USB is a open source/open hardware project.  The goal of LCD2USB is to connect HD44780 based text LCD displays to various PCs via USB.  LCD2USB was meant to be cheap and to be made of easily available parts.  It is therefore based on the Atmel AVR Mega8 CPU and does not require any difficult to obtain parts like separate USB controllers and the like.   __ Designed by Till Harbaum <Till @ Harbaum.org>

LCD clock based on AVR Attiny2313 -  The clock is working a 24 hour period.  The time is displayed in the format "hh: mm: ss" on the alphanumeric display of size 16 x 2  (columns x rows) with driver HD44780.  The use of a backlit display gives the impression of great visual at night.  Instead, use a full stop or semicolon blink I used options available in the Bascom and created their own simple animation changing every second.  With such simple design to evaluate the accuracy of the clock is good.  Accuracy was +1 second / 48 hours.)  __ Designed by Szymon Dyja

LCD Frequency Counter -  This frequency counter module is intended as a "digital dial" frequency readout for portable QRP radio tranceivers.  It uses only six standard discrete logic IC's, i.e.  no PIC or other microcontroller, no programming to be done, etc.  The readout is designed to show kHz from the band edge with 100Hz resolution, i.e.00.0kHz to 99.9kHz.  The display updates ten times per second, which I have found to be a comfortable rate for tuning.  The current consumption is 1.4mA, very suitable for portable  (battery powered) operation.  The size of the counter is 2.3 x 1.6 x 0.8 inches  (58 x 41 x 20mm)  __ Designed by Hans Summers
