Mitsubishi Electric Launches 7-inch & 10.6-inch Color TFT-LCD Modules

Both models are expected to help meet the increasing demand for TFT-LCD modules offering high brightness, wide-ranging operational temperatures and wide-angle viewing for varied outdoor applications. Features of the new 7.0-inch WVGA and 10.6-inch WXGA TFT-LCD models are as follows:



Market-leading brightness, contrast and wide viewing angle

- Super-high brightness of 1,000cd/m2 and high contrast ratio of 1,000:1 for easy viewing even in bright outdoor environments.

- Super-wide 170-degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles for highly functional visibility and extra flexibility for off-center installations.



Market-leading operational temperature range

- Exceptional wide-ranging operational temperatures from -30 degrees C to 80 degrees C, allowing the modules to be exposed to severe climatic environments in outdoor applications.



Long-life and inverter-less backlighting

- At 25 degrees C, the white LED backlight unit has a typical long life of 100,000 hours.

- A high-voltage inverter is not required.

- A circuit board-embedded LED driver achieves a compact, low-cost design.



Environmental awareness

The TFT-LCD module is fully compliant with the European restriction on the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS). It also is mercury-free.



Sales will begin on December 12 through Mitsubishi Electric offices globally.

These industrial-use modules will be presented during the SPS/IPC/DRIVES 2011 in Nuremberg, Germany on November 22-24. Initial production has been set at 2,000 units per month for each model.
