Reigate, UK, 26 August 2008. Trident today announce the introduction of a new TFT LCD range from Toshiba that feature long-life light-emitting diode (LED) backlighting systems offering almost eight years of continuous use. The modules are designed to satisfy the requirements of a broad range of industrial applications, such as test and measuring equipment, medical equipment and portable handheld computing devices, utilising the latest LED backlighting technology. The range includes nine new LCD products, available in four screen sizes ranging from 5.7” to 10.4”, with QVGA, VGA, SVGA and XGA resolutions. 4 wire resistive touchscreen versions are available on the 8.4” and 10.4” displays.
The LCD products in the new series feature an average backlight lifetime of 70,000 hours (to half-brightness of the initial luminance specification), which exceeds today’s common TFT LCDs for industrial applications utilising long-life cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) backlighting systems.
The modules have been designed with a replaceable backlight structure to accommodate the product longevity requirements, in harsh-usage environments, of industrial applications. Toshiba have also added the LED driver circuitry into the electrical interface for the displays, an added benefit for customers to simplify their design-in time and costs.
LED backlit displays offer sustainable benefits over older technology, like power consumption, lighter weight, low noise, slim design and wider adjustable luminance range.
To ease integration, the 8.4” and 10.4” models are mount compatible with existing Toshiba panels LTA084C270F, LTM08C351 series and LTA104D182F series respectively.
