We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "OLED",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Driver expands appeal of passive matrix OLEDs from
Dialog Semiconductor, which we summarised at the time by saying "The use of lower power and lower cost passive matrix OLEDs can be extended to higher resolution main displays on mobile devices".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Strong signs for printed and organic displays from
NanoMarkets: "New technologies bring the advantages of flexibility, readability in bright sunlight and especially low power consumption".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Densitron Display Solutions
concerning its OLED evaluation kit
- take a look at OLED development hosted on PC platforms
which says: "Kit comprises an OLED display, a USB controller card, a mini USB cable, an interchangeable OLED display card and a CD with software applications and drivers".
Take a look also at the news release from GPEG International, OLED module drops in for replacement,
as well as Boost chip powers OLED and backlight from Linear Technology Corp,
and OLED tile promises lighting efficiency from Osram Opto Semiconductors.
