Chip-On-Glass – is one of the high-tech
mounting methods that uses Gold Bump or Flip Chip IC's, and implemented in
most compact applications.
Chip-On-Glass integrated circuits were first introduced by Epson. In
flip-chip mounting, the IC chip is not packaged but is mounted directly
onto the PCB as a bare chip. Because there is no package, the mounted
footprint of the IC can be minimized, along with the required size of the
PCB. This technology reduces a mounting area and is better suited to
handling high-speed or high-frequency signals |

Liquid Crystal Displays
A liquid crystal display (LCD) is a parallel
plate capacitor with a dielectric between the plates. First, select glass
coated with a transparent metal coating for the electrodes of the display.
The glass is usually a soda lime type but in some instances it can be a
more expensive borosilicate type. The transparent metal coating can be any
thin layer of conductive material, such as gold, silver or tin. Indium-tin
oxide (ITO) is often used as the preferred electrode material. Photoresist
is then put on top of the transparent metal coating and a
photolithographic process is used to image patterns in the photoresist.
These patterns can be segments of numeric digits or they can be icons that
represent various functions. The exposed patterns are then developed and
the glass is sent through an acid bath where the excess metal coating is
removed. The remaining photoresist is stripped off and the patterned
segment and common plane electrodes have been generated.
After the electrodes have been made, an
insulating layer is put on top of them. This is a silicon dioxide layer
that is used to seal the electrode surface, act as an electrical barrier,
and index match the electrodes and the glass. The next layer to be applied
is the liquid crystal alignment layer. This is usually a polyimide type
material and has been chosen for its environmental stability in high
moisture and heat. More importantly is its ability to cause the molecules
of liquid crystal to align their long axis in the direction in which the
polymer has been buffed. Then the two halves of the display at right
angles to one another and since the liquid crystal molecules like to
arrange themselves parallel to one another, we cause a helical structure
to be formed between the two electrode faces. This helical structure is a
90 degree rotation of the liquid crystal molecules from one side of the
display to the other. After the polymer is buffed, a glue ring or seal is
printed on the glass. This is a thermoset epoxy type material with a very
high glass transition temperature. A small spot of conductive epoxy to
connect the common plane electrode on the top piece of glass to the
segment plane which is on the bottom piece of glass. This conductive epoxy
is called a crossover dot.
To make the display uniform in appearance,
spacers are then applied. These are usually glass rods that have the
desired diameter to produce a fixed gap between the glass plates.
Depending on the liquid crystal used, this gap can be between 6 and 8
microns. The two halves of the display are then heat sealed together. A
very thin, uniform, flat and empty bottle has been formed. A liquid
crystal is put inside this bottle by using a vacuum filling technique. The
liquid crystal (dielectric material of our capacitor) is selected for it's
various physical properties. The application may call for a liquid crystal
fluid that has a very low operating voltage or the display may be used
outdoors and require a very wide temperature range. Display manufacturers
have developed several liquid crystal mixtures to fulfill most
applications. Once the liquid crystal has been put inside the display and
the port opening has been sealed, a polarizer is put on the front and an
analyzer (another polarizer) is put on the back.

| Types of LCD Display
LCDs are offered in three basic light
transmission modes: reflective, transmissive and transflective . In the
reflective mode, available light is used to illuminate the display. This
is achieved by combing a reflector with the rear polarizer. It works best
in an outdoor or well-lighted office environment. Transmissive LCDs have a
transparent rear polarizer and do not reflect ambient light. They require
a backlight to be visible. They work best in low light conditions with the
backlight on continuously. Transflective LCDs are a mixture of the
reflective and transmissive types, with the rear polarizer having partial
reflectivity. They are combined with a backlight for use in all types of
lighting conditions. The backlight can be left off where there is
sufficient light, conserving power. In darker environments, the backlight
can provide a bright display. Transflective LCDs will not "wash
out" when operated in direct sunlight. Another feature of the viewing
mode is whether the LCD is a positive or negative image . The standard
image is positive, which means a light background with a dark character or
dot. This works best in reflective or transflective mode. A negative image
is usually combined with a transmissive mode. This provides a dark
background with a light character. A strong backlight must be used to
provide good illumination. In most graphic applications, the transmissive
negative mode is inverted. This combination provides a light background
with dark characters, which offers the user better readability. |
