Toshiba Mobile Display Co., Ltd. (TMD)* has been developing its leading-edge LCD technology since 1968 for a wide range of applications including automotive, industrial, and handheld products including cell phones, medical products, electronic books, in-flight entertainment, MP3 players and other mobile devices. Product Selection Chart.
Low-Temperature Poly-silicon TFT Technology
Toshiba's award-winning, low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) technology has enabled LCDs that are significantly thinner and lighter in weight than previous generations, and offers high-resolution capability for unmatched brilliance and clarity. Further, LTPS technology dramatically reduces energy consumption for lower operating costs and longer operating life in battery-operated devices.
70,000 Hours MTBF1 LED Backlight System
For industrial applications, Toshiba has incorporated a long-life LED backlight system with up to 70,000 hours MTBF at ordinary room temperatures (25°C).
1The MTBF (Mean Time between Failure) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a large number of products which may not accurately reflect actual operation. Actual operating life of the product may not resemble the MTBF.
The innovative backlight system achieves increased longevity through design optimization for heat dissipation and luminous efficiency. This MTBF of 70,000 hours fulfills typical product longevity requirements for industrial applications with frequent or continuous operation. The modules have been designed with a replaceable backlight assembly and have integrated the LED driver circuitry into the electrical interface for the displays. In some cases, TMD has even incorporated 4-wire touch screens. This will help to reduce design-in time, costs and increase integration.
