1. General Description
The LM170E01-A4 is a Color Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display with an integral Cold Cathode Fluorescent
Lamp(CCFL) backlight system. The matrix employs a-Si Thin Film Transistor as the active element.
It is a transmissive type display operating in the normally white mode. This TFT-LCD has a 17.0 inch diagonal
measured active display area with SXGA resolution(1024 vertical by 1280 horizontal pixel array)
Each pixel is divided into Red, Green and Blue sub-pixels or dots which are arranged in vertical stripes.
Gray scale or the brightness of the sub-pixel color is determined with a 8-bit gray scale signal for each dot,
thus, presenting a palette of more than 16.2M colors with FRC(Frame Rate Control).
The LM170E01-A4 has been designed to apply the interface method that enables low power, high speed,low
EMI. FPD Link or compatible must be used as a LVDS(Low Voltage Differential Signaling) chip.
The LM170E01-A4 is intended to support applications where thin thickness,wide viewing angle, low power are
critical factors and graphic displays are important. In combination with the vertical arrangement of the sub-pixels,
the LM170E01-A4 characteristics provide an excellent flat panel display for office automation products such as
monitors.
