digital clocks
Screens showing time
Digital clocks display time as numerals rather than with hands on a dial.
The term distinguishes them from analog clocks, where rotating hands point to numbers on a face.
Digital clocks became common with the spread of electronic displays in the late twentieth century: The microwave's digital clock blinked 12:00 after the power outage.
