Compact and rugged WVGA display is ideal for graphical user interfaces

“The wide aspect ratio format of the TX20D19 is becoming increasingly popular and enables flexible graphical user interfaces to be designed for many different application environments.” comments Mark Stephenson, Product Manager for Hitachi Display Products Group. “High colour saturation and excellent uniformity make the new TX20 display module ideal for applications such as in flight entertainment, media terminals, navigation systems, home automation and industrial user interfaces.”
