Kyocera 10.4" and 12.1" High Brightness AWV TFT Displays

Ginsbury debuts high-brightness 10.4" and 12.1" Kyocera AWV TFT Displays

Super high-brightness enables saturated colours in bright sunlight

 Display specialist Ginsbury has announced the introduction of two new high-brightness Kyocera TFT LCD displays.  The Kyocera 10.4-inch TCG104XGLP and 12.1-inch TCG121XGLP both feature XGA (1024 x 768 pixels) resolution and Kyocera's Advanced Wide View (AWV) technology which enables display images to be easily seen from 85-degree viewing angles in all directions (left, right, up and down).

Both displays feature the latest high-efficiency, LED backlights with brightness ratings of 1300cd/m² for the 10.4-inch module and 1200cd/m² for the 12.1-inch module. No additional components are required to drive the backlights as an integrated LED driver circuit is included in both display modules. Backlight lifetime is an estimated 70K hours to 50% brightness.

Advanced Wide View technology, high contrast ratios of 700:1 and 750:1 respectively, and an anti-glare polariser contribute to ensure that display images are bright, colourful and easily read in high ambient light environments. Kyocera AWV displays are inherently suitable for demanding indoor and outdoor applications where optimum viewing angle performance is required such as aerospace, marine navigation, medical, point-of sale, test and measurement, and process control.

Neville Milward, director, Ginsbury commented, "Advanced Wide View is Kyocera's implementation of in-plane switching (IPS) and achieves a viewing angle of greater than 170° (horizontal and vertical).  This guarantees that the colour fidelity of the display image is accurately represented when viewed from any direction. The can be particularly important in many applications that require the display image to be clearly visible from multiple viewing directions and often viewed by more than one operator."

Both display modules have a standard 20-pin LVDS interface that supports 6 or 8-bit RGB data enabling a colour palette of up to 16.7M colours. The 10.4-inch display module features outline dimensions of 230mm (w) x 180.2mm (h) x 10.5mm (d) and 260.5mm (w) x 203mm (h) x 10.3mm (d) for the 12.1-inch module. An operating temperature range of -30°C to +80°C is supported.

Kyocera has almost 40 years of experience in LCD technology innovation and is committed to long-term product support. All of Kyocera's TFT LCDs are RoHS compliant. The new 10.4-inch and 12.1-inch high-brightness Kyocera AWV TFT displays are available from Ginsbury immediately.
