Supertransmissive LCD is a natural
performer
NEC Electronics Europe is shipping samples of a new 12.1in SVGA amorphous silicon TFT LCD module.
NEC Electronics Europe is now shipping samples of its new 12.1in super video graphics array (SVGA), amorphous silicon, thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD) module, part number NL8060BC31-32 This module features NEC LCD Technologies' proprietary supertransmissive natural light TFT (ST-NLT) technology, which enables display of vivid colours in environments with high ambient light

Cutting the cost of hi-rel satellite devices
NEC's low-earth orbit L-Grade high-reliability devices include transistors and monolithic microwave ICs (MMICs) in both silicon and gallium arsenide (GaAs) technologies.
1Mbit SRAM retains its data at low voltages
NEC's latest 1Mbit SRAM is designed using full CMOS process memory allowing it to operate with supply currents as low as 25mA and with supply voltage 1.8-3.6V.
The new module boasts three key differentiating factors.
First, its high luminance of 400cd/m2, high contrast of 600:1 and low levels of reflectivity on the screen surface enable a variety of information and pictures to be reproduced in clear and vivid colour, even in high ambient light conditions.
Secondly, its wide operating temperature range, from -10 to +70C guarantees operation in even the most extreme conditions.
And thirdly, as with most LCD modules in NEC's standard industrial lineup, backward compatibility with its predecessors with respect to outer dimensions, position of mounting holes, and centre of the screen enables the new module to be replaced easily - without the need for changing any peripheral appliances due to interface incompatibility.
NEC LCD Technologies developed the 12.1in LCD module in response to the increasing demand for new ST-NLT-based LCDs in a variety of sizes and resolutions, a demand that arose as a result of the success of the company's 5.5in LCD module (NL3224BC35-22), the first LCD to be equipped with ST-NLT technology.
"Following the excellent reception of the 5.5in ST-NLT-equipped LCD module, we have decided to launch a 12in model in response to increasing market demand for ST-NLT technology in a variety of LCD devices", said Hidetoshi Usui, Department Manager in charge of Product Planning and Marketing, NEC LCD Technologies.
"This product will enable LCDs to be designed into automatic vending machines, automatic ticketing machines and kiosk terminals placed in outdoor locations".
NEC LCD Technologies will continue to enhance its lineup of LCDs adopting ST-NLT technology for a variety of industrial applications and a range of environmental conditions.
