BIBUKE's seven-segment display: The Light of digital Display from its origin to wide application

In the long river of electronic display technology, the seven-segment display screen has occupied an important position with its unique design and wide application. As the flagship product of BIBUKE Company, the seven-segment display screen is continuously shining in various devices, bringing convenience to people's lives and work. ​

The history of the seven-segment display screen can be traced back to the early 20th century. The exact time of its appearance and the inventor are difficult to verify precisely, but in some early patent documents, design prototypes similar to displaying numbers by lighting up certain line segments can already be seen. Initially, the seven-segment display screen was mainly used to replace LED digital tubes in simple digital display devices such as calculators and clocks. It was the mainstream display product in the 1960s and was first developed in Hong Kong. With advantages such as simple and fast display effect, fast response speed, high contrast and low cost, it was quickly applied. In the 1980s, this technology was introduced to China and has been widely used in various industries. In the 1990s, Hong Kong's Haowei Ge was the first to introduce the STN production line on the Chinese mainland, significantly improving the viewing Angle of segment LCD screens (a type of seven-segment display screen), which enabled it to maintain a good development momentum in China for as long as 40 years. ​

The seven-segment display screen, also known as the seven-segment digital tube, is usually composed of seven light-emitting diodes (leds) or liquid crystals (LCDS), arranged in a shape similar to the number "8", hence its name. Most seven-segment digital tubes also have an additional lamp tube indicating a decimal point at the lower right corner, and thus are also called eight-segment tubes. By controlling the on/off combinations of different segments, it can display the numbers 0-9 as well as some letters. For instance, in hexadecimal operations, it can show the letters A-F (where B and D are in lowercase and the others are in uppercase). ​

Since its establishment in 2002, BIBUKE has been continuously delving into the field of display technology. Since 2016, we have been dedicated to digital signage products and have accumulated profound strength in the research and development, production and assembly of seven-segment display screens. The company has gathered a professional and outstanding top-notch sales team, as well as a high-quality team of engineers with decades of experience, and is equipped with multiple sets of advanced production and testing equipment. The seven-segment display screens it produces have gained a good reputation in the market with their stable performance and reliable quality.

​
In daily life, seven-segment displays can be seen everywhere. On electronic watches and clocks, the time is displayed precisely. On the microwave oven, it shows the cooking time and temperature. In the car dashboard, it is used to display key information such as vehicle speed and fuel level. In industrial equipment, such as counters and measuring instruments, the seven-segment display screen helps staff accurately read data. In the field of medical equipment, such as blood pressure monitors and thermometers, they clearly display the physiological parameters of patients and provide important basis for medical diagnosis. ​

With the continuous advancement of technology, BIBUKE Company is also constantly innovating and optimizing the seven-segment display screen. On the one hand, it integrates with the ambient light sensor to achieve automatic brightness adjustment, improve readability under different lighting conditions, and reduce energy consumption at the same time; On the other hand, it can be combined with various sensors such as temperature and humidity sensors to expand its application in intelligent monitoring systems. In addition, BIBUKE Company is also exploring the application of more new display material technologies, and is committed to promoting the development of seven-segment displays towards greater energy efficiency, environmental friendliness and more powerful functions. ​

As an important member in the field of display technology, BIBUKE's seven-segment display screens are continuing to shine on the stage of electronic devices with their long development history, wide range of applications and continuous innovative vitality, providing indispensable digital display services for numerous industries and consumers.
