Sharp Microelectronics introduced two new TFT LCD panels at SID 2008 designed for use in third party applications and products. The panels are the 5.7 inch LQ057V3DG02 and the 8.4 inch LQ084V3DG01 LCD. Both panels meet Sharp’s “Strong 2″ criteria for industrial display technology which includes (quoted from the Sharp press release):

  • Brightness: A minimum high brightness of 400 nits eliminates the need to add extra display backlights to compensate for high ambient light situations.
  • Contrast: A standard high contrast ratio of 600:1 provides crisp images and vivid display colors.
  • Temperature Range: Operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -30 degrees to +80 degrees C eliminates the need for cooling/heating methods.
  • Shock and Vibration: Certifications of 60 G - 70 G shock and 1.5 G - 2.0 G vibration are for ideal for surviving even the roughest handling.

LQ084V3DG01

The 5.7 inch LQ057V3DG02 features Chip-on-Glass technology, has a resolution of 640 x 480 and has 18x LED backlighting for a brightness of 400 nits. The panel has a one-piece sample pricing of $175.

LQ057V3DG02

The 8.4 inch LQ084V3DG01 also has a resolution of 640 x 480 and delivers 400 nits of brightness from 2 x CCFL backlighting system. The panel has a one piece sample panel pricing of $300.
