PLC cards and driver board in the display module difference

When discussing a display module, there might be a distinction between a "PLC card" and a "driver board":

  1. PLC Card:

   - In the context of a display module, a PLC card could refer to a component that interfaces with the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).

   - This card acts as a communication bridge between the PLC and the display module, allowing the PLC to send control signals or data to the display for visualization.

   - It may handle tasks such as receiving data from the PLC, interpreting commands, and converting them into signals that the display module can understand.

  1. Driver Board:

   - The driver board, in the context of a display module, typically refers to a component responsible for controlling the display itself.

   - It handles tasks such as converting digital signals into analog signals that drive the pixels on the display, controlling brightness, refresh rates, and other display parameters.

   - The driver board may include integrated circuits, controllers, and other components tailored to the specific type of display technology used (e.g., LCD, LED, OLED).

 

In summary, while both the PLC card and the driver board contribute to the functioning of a display module, they serve different purposes. The PLC card facilitates communication between the PLC and the display module, while the driver board controls the actual display output. They work together to enable the display module to receive and show relevant information from the PLC.
