Description
Cistercian Display
I have always loved displays, I really like anything that emits light and that is controllable, that is why I have created this new display that consists of the representation of numbers “Cistercian”, this single digit is capable of representing a number from 0 to 9999.
The controller that I have decided to use is a simple serial to parallel converter from LUMISIL embedded in the same PCB routing fewer pins to the castellated holes and making it easier to use overall, and also has the possibility to set a custom constant current source for the LEDs.
This Display needs some 3D printing for it to look like 31 segments display, for that iI used White PLA as a diffuser and some other color for the display body. The assembly consists of 1 PCBA and 3 3D printed parts, the display front face body, the diffuser, and the LED spacer.
