Operating Precautions 1) Since front polarizer is easily damaged, please be cautious and not to scratch it. 2) Be sure to turn off power supply when inserting or disconnecting from input connector. 3) Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration or spots. 4) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or soft cloth. 5) Since the panel is made of glass, it may be broken or cracked if dropped or bumped on hard surface. 6) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and insure human earth when handling. 7) Do not open nor modify the module assembly. 8) Do not press the reflector sheet at the back of the module to any direction. 9) In case if a module has to be put back into the packing container slot after it was taken out from the container, do not press the center of the CCFL Reflector edge. Instead, press at the far ends of the CFL Reflector edge softly. Otherwise the TFT Module may be damaged. 10) At the insertion or removal of the Signal Interface Connector, be sure not to rotate nor tilt the Interface Connector of the TFT Module. 11) After installation of the TFT Module into an enclosure (Notebook PC Bezel, for example), do not twist nor bend the TFT Module even momentary. At designing the enclosure, it should be taken into consideration that no bending/twisting forces are applied to the TFT Module from outside. Otherwise the TFT Module may be damaged. 12) Cold cathode fluorescent lamp in LCD contains a small amount of mercury. Please follow local ordinances or regulations for disposal. 13) Small amount of materials having no flammability grade is used in the LCD module. The LCD module should be supplied by power complied with requirements of Limited Power Source (IEC60950 or UL1950), or be applied exemption. 14) The LCD module is designed so that the CFL in it is supplied by Limited Current Circuit (IEC60950 or UL1950). Do not connect the CFL in Hazardous Voltage Circuit. 15) Severe temperature condition may result in different luminance, response time and lamp ignition voltage. 16) Continuous operating TFT-LCD display under low temperature environment may accelerate lamp exhaustion and reduce luminance dramatically. 17) The data on this specification sheet is applicable when LCD module is placed in landscape position. 18) Continuous displaying fixed pattern may induce image sticking. It ’s recommended to use screen saver or shuffle content periodically if fixed pattern is displayed on the screen. G104SN02 V1 rev. 0.0 Page 4/26 G104SN02 V1 2.

The 180° viewing angle range is broken down as below: 90° (θ) horizontal left and right, and 90° (Φ) vertical high (up) and low (down). The measurement direction is typically perpendicular to the display surface with the screen rotated to its center to develop the desired measurement viewing angle.

(In Figure. 1) + Hi Lamp Inverter mA - Lo (Figure. 1: Measurement of return current) A stable IRCFL is a current without flicker or biasing waveform provided by inverter that ensures the backlight perform to its specification. The ideal sine waveform should be symmetric in positive and negative polarities and the asymmetry rate of the inverter waveform should be below 10%. Ip Reference I-p (N ote) Ip: Positive peak value I-p: N egative peak value Irm s: Effective value G104SN02 V1 rev. 0.0 Page 13/26 G104SN02 V1 DC Bias = (| Ip – I-p| / Irms ) x 100 % <10% Crest Factor = Ip or (I-p) / Irms should have the range within 1.414 +10% It is recommended to use the inverter with detection circuit ( ie: balance and protection circuit) to avoid overvoltage, overcurrent, or mismatching waveform. Note 2: CCFL frequency should be carefully determined to avoid interference between inverter and TFT LCD. Higher frequency will induce higher leakage current and further impact lamp life. Note 3: Calculator value for reference (IRCFLxVCFLx2=PCFL). Note 4: The definition of lamp life means when any of following conditions happen: a) Luminance falls to 50% or less of the initial value. b) Normal lighting is no more available (flickering, pink lighting, no lighting, etc.) c) Lamp voltage or lighting start voltage exceeds the specified value. Lamp life time shortens according to d) Placing methodology: mercury is unevenly distributed in portrait mounting e) Environmental condition: low temperature reduces the presence of mercury vapor, which results in approximately lamp life of 1,000 hours f) CCFL surface temperature: Presence of gradient in lamp surface temperature causes uneven mercury migration g) Inverter design: its resonance capacitor should be fine-tuned with the impedance of CCFL h) Over driving current ( > 6.5 mA) shortens lamp life time dramatically. Note 5: The display is with dual lamp design, and the CCFL current in above table refers to each lamp G104SN02 V1 rev. 0.0 Page 14/26 G104SN02 V1 6.
