Power Techniques of TFT LCD, OLED, and Micro-LED Automotive Displays

Yujie Bai

April 22, 2025

In the automotive display system, TFT LCD displays dominate in the automotive display panel. Furthermore, OLED and micro-LED displays are drawing more and more attention in the market. The power techniques need to be developed for different display technologies. The edge-lit backlight and direct-lit backlight are commonly used in TFT LCD displays. The local dimming based on the direct-lit backlight with mini-LEDs is developed for improving the display performance. Although OLED displays are more common in smartphones, the automotive OLED and micro-LED displays are still in development. This article comprehensively describes the automotive display system and the power techniques.

Informal Testing Proves that Wi-Fi HaLow is the Real Deal

Rich Nass

April 22, 2025

When I attended CES in Las Vegas back in January, I came across Morse Micro, a provider of Wi-Fi HaLow ICs. I was unfamiliar with that specification, so I attempted to learn more. Apparently, I wasn’t the only one looking for more insight into this specification, because the company’s tabletop area was jam-packed, and being that I was already late for another appointment, I never hooked up with the Morse team. That changed when I attended Embedded World in Nuremberg last month. I got the full download on the spec, the company, and its latest SoC/transceiver.
