Earlier versions these displays were only for sale in TN (twisted nematic), solutions now include STN (super-twisted nematic) and FSTN (Film reimbursed STN). The advantage of custom sized glass is that this display is built around your product and not the other way all over.

Segment size: Segmented displays contain either seven segments or some number of segments to displays numbers and some letters. The engineer or designer can choose how many segments and the length of each segment. It is possible to own different segment sizes on a single display. The variance in portion sizes does not affect the price tag on the tooling (NRE).

Customized Icons: There are many standard icons like battery indicator, AM/PM together with F/C. A customized Static display allows the customer to incorporate unique symbols. We have supplied custom displays that included icons with the company name or custom logo design. Products that will be used outside the United States offer symbols specific to metric values such as mm, kg, celsius, much like other options on a custom segmented display. The number of icons does not have an impact on the tooling cost. Each additional segment or icon carries a very small increase on the total cost of your display.

Backlight Options: Standard and custom static displays don't contain a backlight. The backlight needs to be designed around such factors as the size of the glass and the kind of polarizer. The tooling cost of the backlight is frequently greater than the cost with the LCD. This leads many companies not to incorporate a backlight or switch to a monochrome graphics LCD module with a built-in backlight.
