Abstract

A display (122) for a handheld computing device includes a display panel; a circuit board (104) carrying display electronics for the display panel; a cover assembly (105) securing the display panel to the circuit board; and a resilient layer adhered to the circuit board for securing the display to the computing device. Snap clips (107a,107b,107c,107d) assist in securing the display.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention described herein relates to a handheld computing device. Specifically, the invention described herein relates to an arrangement for a handheld computing device having an LCD display that is resistant to damage from shock loading due to impact. Background technique [0002] A conventional handheld computing device, such as a PDA or wireless telephone, includes a keyboard / keypad, display assembly, and system motherboard (not shown) contained within a common housing. Typically, the display assembly is provided as a reflective, transmissive or transreflective LCD display panel. [0003] In order to limit power loss and noise effects on image quality, the LCD display electronics must be located close to the LCD display panel. Accordingly, the LCD display electronics are provided on a printed circuit board housed together with the LCD display panel within a plastic or metal support frame. Typically, the display electronics and LCD display pa...
