Arrangement of electrodes for a juxtaposed two digit display including a left digit and a right digit is disclosed. The right digit includes an upper electrode, a median electrode and a lower electrode. The right digit includes a lateral upper left electrode, a lateral lower left electrode, a lateral upper right electrode and a lateral lower right electrode. The left digit includes an upper electrode, a median electrode and a lower electrode. The left digit includes a lateral upper left electrode, a lateral lower left electrode, a lateral upper right electrode and a lateral lower right electrode. In the left digit, the upper electrode, the median electrode and the lower electrode are each formed of a first and second point-shaped electrode. A first additional electrode is provided between the lateral upper left electrode and the lateral upper right electrode of the left digit, the first additional electrode being adjacent to the lateral upper right electrode, and a second additional electrode is provided between the lateral lower left electrode and the lateral lower right electrode, the second additional electrode being adjacent to the lateral lower right electrode.
An arrangement of electrodes for a juxtaposed two digit display, wherein the two digit display comprises a left digit and a right digit, wherein the right digit comprises an upper electrode, a median electrode and a lower electrode, wherein the median electrode extends between the upper electrode and the lower electrode, wherein the right digit also comprises a lateral upper left electrode and a lateral lower left electrode, and a lateral upper right electrode and a lateral lower right electrode, wherein the left digit comprises an upper electrode, a median electrode and a lower electrode, wherein the median electrode extends between the upper electrode and the lower electrode of the left digit, wherein the left digit also comprises a lateral upper left electrode and a lateral lower left electrode, as well as a lateral upper right electrode and a lateral lower right electrode, wherein, in the left digit, the upper electrode, the median electrode and the lower electrode are each formed of a first and second point-shaped electrode, and wherein a first additional electrode is provided between the lateral upper left electrode and the lateral upper right electrode of the left digit, wherein the first additional electrode is adjacent to the lateral upper right electrode of the left digit such that an asymmetrical arrangement of the electrodes is formed by the first additional electrode and the lateral upper right electrode of the left digit, and a second additional electrode is provided between the lateral lower left electrode and the lateral lower right electrode of the left digit, wherein the second additional electrode is adjacent to the lateral lower right electrode of the left digit such that an asymmetrical arrangement of the electrodes is formed by the second additional electrode and the lateral lower right electrode of the left digit, and wherein a portion of the asymmetrically arranged electrodes of the left digit and a portion of the electrodes from the right digit are configured to display a single digit in a center of the two digit display.
