Kyocera, a manufacturer in the field of electronic devices, is extending its product range with two new next-generation LCDs. The TFT LCDs show bright colours clearly, even in intense sunlight. This makes them ideal for industrial applications, including medical, aerospace, aquatics, testing and measuring, as well as for Industry 4.0 equipment.
The new 10.4-inch XGA (TCG104XGLP) and 12.1-inch XGA (TCG121XGLP) TFT LCD modules feature 1024 x 768 pixel resolution and the latest high-efficiency, long-life LED backlights with brightness ratings of 1300 cd/m² (10.4”) and 1200 cd/m² (12.1”). Kyocera’s Advanced Wide View (AWV) technology makes it possible to achieve an 85-degree viewing angle in all directions (left, right, top and bottom). The fully integrated Kyocera LED driver circuit allows backlight operation without the need for additional components. The new TFT LCDs are designed with a standard LVDS interface and offer a wide operating temperature range of -30°C to 80°C, ideal for outdoor applications.
“Kyocera has been creating LCD technology for almost 40 years and providing the associated long-term support. This is an essential factor for the satisfaction of our customers in the automotive sector, in industry and in medical engineering,” said Shinichiro Kakigahara, president of Kyocera Display Europe. “All of our TFT LCDs are RoHS compliant and we strive to continually reduce our environmental impact in manufacturing.”The Kyocera Group is actively engaged in the development of environmentally-friendly products and continually strives to reduce its use of environmentally hazardous substances in manufacturing. Naturally, the company complies with the EU directive on the application of hazardous substances (RoHS Directive – Restriction of Hazardous Substances).
