DATA CRAFT

We are proud to be the partner of probably the world’s number one supplier of Colour LCD to the Industrial OEM Market.

Kyocera focus intensely on the industrial, instrumentation, medical and other low to medium volume markets, which makes them unique among liquid crystal display manufacturers.  Whilst the competition chases the glamour markets, Kyocera is developing the products and infrastructure to satisfy these more stable, performance-orientated markets.

With sizes from 3.5” to 10.4” diagonal and formats from QVGA (320×240 dots) to full VGA (640×480 dots) Kyocera has the largest STN colour product line in the market.

In Kyocera transflective displays the reflective/transmissive ratio can be tailored to exactly meet OEM needs.  Transflective colour displays reflect ambient light during the day, while at night the CCFL backlight shines through producing readable and attractive colour.  Through the use of the sun and power efficient drivers, Kyocera transflective STN displays have become the choice for today’s low power applications.

As a pioneer and technology leader in colour STN the natural progression for Kyocera was to use these attributes to move into the TFT LCD market.  Utilizing their technical leadership and pioneering spirit Kyocera applied their state-of-the-art colour filter technology to leading edge TFT design which resulted in the best-in-class TCG057QV1 5.7” QVGA LCD.  Its high brightness and long-life CCFL and White LED backlights make this display the first choice in a host of applications throughout the world’s industrial market place.

With the addition of the transmissive and transflective colour TFT LCD to its already strong line up of transmissive and transflective colour STN LCDs, Kyocera has cemented its position as the leading supplier for small and medium markets where benchmark performance is a must.

Currently, the 5.7” (14cm) diagonal, QVGA size is the de facto standard for a large majority of industrial applications.  Kyocera have studied this area and have listened to the problems facing today’s product designers and engineers.  The 5.7” V-Series range offers designers a solution we hope, to all their problems.  We can offer Monochrome STN, Colour STN, Colour TFT with both CCFL and LED backlighting plus now a full VGA again with both CCFL or LED backlighting, all with the same mounting footprint and symmetrical bezel design.  This gives designers and engineers an obvious advantage when planning a product range or possible future upgrades, the ability to use existing casings and mounting hardware can drastically reduce costs and time to market. No other LCD manufacturer/supplier currently offers this range of products.
