Broadcom offers high-quality alphanumeric smart displays to meet a wide range of applications and requirements. An ASIC driver incorporated into the display simplifies design effort significantly. The smart displays are LED technology-based and are extremely reliable with a long life-expectancy. They are resistant to extreme weather conditions and to mechanical vibration and shock, making them suitable for industrial applications where maintenance resources are scarce. They are also suitable for consumer markets where the need for aesthetics and product differentiation provides a competitive edge to the customers’ end products. Broadcom is currently the only supplier in the world for smart displays.
