It is Heroic Condensed Regular



ADDENDUM: The comments need something. Here I have layered MyFonts screenshot over the questioner's image. Part LCD is separated to own layer, the color is inverted and the blending mode is Exclusion. In the following image the texts are not aligned:



Non-fitting areas are orange or black. Fitting areas are light grey. In the following image the texts are aligned. Myfont screenshot is stretched only proportionally (=holding shift) so the glyphs have not been deformed. Every glyph has got the same scaling.



Questioner's version is 2 pixels larger everyhere when the spacing is the same. It can be caused by hinting, different rendering system or questioner's version has a stroke around the glyphs or the font is different. I do not believe in the last because the 2 pix difference is consistent. See a screenshot of the difference:
