Abstract

Dot matrix displays which are capable of graphics permit any desired point of a display field to be highlighted by simultaneously actuating the associated column and line. Dot matrix displays of this kind permit the representation of characters of different sizes at any desired point of the dot matrix display but are however very expensive. The new device is intended to permit the representation of numerals of different sizes at a lower cost. In a two-line dot matrix display divided up into individual dot matrix fields, each numeral is composed of bar-shaped basic patterns in such a way that the basic patterns displayed on adjacent dot matrix fields form the numeral to be displayed in the manner of a 7-segment display. The numerals formed in this way are two dot matrix fields high and three dot matrix fields wide. Each basic pattern is displayed on a separate dot matrix field. The display device is particularly suitable for microprocessor- controlled measuring devices. <IMAGE>
