Optrex America expands TFT LCD lineup

April 4, 2010

Optrex LED-backlit LCDs offer numerous advantages over conventional CCFL-backlit LCDs, including no warm-up time at low temperatures, lower power consumption, higher dimming ratios and, because they do not require high-voltage and high-frequency inverter circuits, significantly reduced electro-magnetic interference (EMI). And since LED backlights contain no mercury, these displays offer a more environmentally-friendly option as well.

These displays also offer Optrex's Natural Color Matrix (NCM) technology, a patented color transformation algorithm implemented in the hardware that provides real-time, on-the-fly processing to precisely match the colors specified in a data source for exceptionally vivid color reproduction. Additional features include industrial standard CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) and LVDS (low-voltage differential signaling) interfaces for easy system development.

To ease the customer's transition from CCFL-backlit displays, many of the new LED-backlit displays have the same mounting locations and sizes, saving on re-design and development costs. Each of the new panels are compatible with Optrex's conventional CCFL-backlit TFT LCDs of the same size and resolution. The LED backlight rails are also field-replaceable.

Optrex's LED-backlit LCDs are designed for a broad range of applications, including test and measurement, factory automation, navigation and avionics systems, POS and ATM machines, and medical equipment.

Sample pricing for the 8.4-inch LED-backlit TFT LCD is $330.
