Hitachi Display Products Group has today announced the
introduction of two new cost effective 5.7" TFT display modules. The newly
designed 5.7" TX14D16VM1CBC and TX14D17VM1BAB display modules feature QVGA (320
x 240 pixels) and VGA (640 x 480 pixels) resolution respectively and join the
existing range of compact 5.7" Hitachi TFT LCD display modules.
"With the addition of the new TX14D16 and TX14D17 displays Hitachi's 5.7"
product line up is further improved," comments Mark Stephenson, Product
Marketing Manager for Hitachi Display Products Group, "Customer feedback and our
own market research has enabled Hitachi to continue to meet the needs of
industrial customers and develop these enhanced, high performance display
modules. Hitachi's design engineers have focussed on improving the efficiency of
the materials used in major component design which has resulted in greater
economies of scale and hence a more cost effective display solution."
Excellent levels of contrast and brightness allow exceptional optical
performance to be delivered. Low power white LED backlights are employed that
have a brightness of 400cd/m²(TX14D16)and 350cd/m²(TX14D17) with a lifetime of
40,000 hours. Both displays have a pin compatible 18-bit RGB CMOS interface that
enables up to 262K colours to be displayed.
Both modules feature the same mechanical outline dimensions of 131.0mm (w) x
102.2 mm (h) which allows system and application engineers to offer support for
two different display resolutions in the same equipment housing. The new
displays are also form factor compatible with other existing displays in
Hitachi?s compact 5.7" portfolio.
Touch panel versions of the displays, the TX14D16VM1CPC and TX14D17VM1BPB, are
also available, making these modules ideal for many embedded applications from
portable handheld equipment to industrial human-machine interfaces.
The new TX14D16 and TX14D17 display modules are available immediately via
Hitachi Display Products Group distribution partners across Europe.
