TFT-VGA display measures just 6mm thick
(about 0.236”), weighs only 110 grams (about 3.9oz)
Kyocera Corporation, a world-leading electronic device
manufacturer, today introduced a robust 5.7” LCD display with an
ultra-thin profile specifically designed for portable industrial
devices using the VGA standard.
Like consumer electronics, next-generation industrial devices
will be smaller, slimmer and lighter; however, industrial
applications will still require higher performance and durability
in harsh environments. Kyocera’s new ultra-thin, lightweight LCD
module is an ideal candidate for handheld devices used in demanding
industrial applications, including laboratory testing and
measurement, automotive maintenance, medical diagnostics, and
marine instrumentation, among others.
The new 5.7” TFT-LCD (part number: TCG057VGLAAANN-GN20) features
640 x 480 resolution, slim bezel and an ultra-thin profile — with
outline dimensions of 127.2mm x 100.4mm x 6mm, and an active
display area of 115.2mm x 86.4mm. It provides brightness of 450
cd/m2 with a contrast ratio of 500:1 and viewing angle of 160
degrees vertically and horizontally. It also features a standard
LVDS interface, an operating temperature range of -20 to +70⁰C,
storage temperature range of -30 to +80⁰C, and built-in LED driver
circuit.
The built-in LED driver circuit incorporates a PWM dimming
control, which achieves a wide LED backlight dimming range of 0.1%
to 100%. This is particularly useful in meeting equipment design
requirements where a highly dimmable display is needed. Having the
LED driver circuit built in also helps to simplify the design
process and reduce external component requirements. Kyocera’s
built-in LED driver ensures a more cost-effective solution.
“We are pleased to offer a high-performance industrial product
that is so slim and lightweight,” said Cynthia Ferrell, Senior
Divisional Vice President of Kyocera International, Inc.’s Display
Division. “This display enables our customers to achieve optimal
ergonomic designs for handheld applications.”
