Bright, high contrast IPS display
module offers wide viewing angles and
guaranteed, long production life
Hitachi Display Products Group has launched its
new 2.2-inch TFT LCD display module, the TX06D57VM0AAA,
for use in a wide range of applications requiring
high performance displays. Unusually in this market
segment Hitachi is guaranteeing product availability
for this module for at least three years in order
to satisfy the long term product planning requirements
of customers incorporating the display into solutions
including remote entry systems, industrial test and
measurement devices, medical devices, epos and other
handheld mobile devices.
Featuring Hitachi’s advanced In-Plane Switching
(IPS) technology the new module offers viewing angles
of up to 160 degrees in any direction ensuring a
bright and clear image in all usage conditions. Typical
performance figures for the 240 x 320 pixel resolution,
1⁄4 VGA screen include a brightness of 220cd/m2
and a contrast ratio of 250:1.
"The extremely wide 160 degree viewing cone
of the TX06D57VM0AAA affords much greater flexibility
to
both product design engineers and end-users across
a wide range of application areas. Product designers
looking for stability and continuous supply through
a long manufacturing lifecycle are also secure in
knowledge that Hitachi is guaranteeing that this
product will be available in the market for a minimum
of three years,” comments Steve Donohoe, Product
Marketing Engineer for Hitachi Display Products Group.
The active matrix TFT module produces clear, sharp
images and graphics and operates in a transmissive
mode, with a colour palette of 262,000 colours. Despite
a compact size of 39.8mm(W) x 56.1mm(H) x 2.7mm(D)
and a weight of just 12.6 grams the high performance
TX06D57VM0AAA offers industrial levels of quality
and operates in a temperatures ranging from -20oC

comprising four LED’s connected in serial,
