New panels offer improved value,
performance and convenience
In line with the company philosophy of continual
improvement Hitachi Display Products Group today
introduced the TX09D40 as an addition to the current
range of 3.5-inch 1⁄4 VGA TFT display modules.
The TX09D40, available with or without touch screen
functionality offers the convenience of an onboard,
integrated timing controller without increasing the
outline dimensions of the display. The new modules
will be sold at the same price point as the current
products.
“
This new 3.5-inch display module is one more demonstration
of our strategy and commitment to offer customers
superior value and choice through continual innovation
in both products and core technologies. By delivering
a built-in timing controller on the TX09D40 and maintaining
outline compatibility with existing models we are
giving customers the opportunity to reduce costs,
simplify design and improve performance,” comments
Mark Stephenson, Product Manager for Hitachi Display
Products Group. “Customers now have a choice
whether to upgrade to the latest technology with
new features at the same price or stay with the current
models, depending on their circumstances.”
Both module variants feature a white LED backlight
for the transmissive TMR (Transmissive with Micro
Reflectance), active matrix, TFT LCD display producing
clear, bright images with a contrast ratio of 300:1
and 262,000 colours. The robust display delivers
highly saturated colour images in 240(w) X 320(h)
resolution, making it ideal for products such as
handheld personal devices, portable instruments,
bespoke data loggers and measurement devices.
The TX09D40VM3CAA incorporates touch screen functionality
within it’s highly compact (W)64.0mm x (H)86.0mm
x (D)4.0mm form factor. The anti-glare display delivers
bright images at 340 cd/m2.
The TX09D40VM3CBA, without the touchpanel is even
more compact at (W)64.0mm x (H)86.0mm x (D)3.12mm
and delivers 430 cd/m2, making it ideal for outdoor
and high ambient light environments.
