SONY LCX012BL

LCX012BL
3.3cm (1.3-inch) Black-and-White LCD Panel
Description
The LCX012BL is a 3.3cm diagonal active matrix
TFT-LCD panel addressed by polycrystalline silicon
super thin film transistors with built-in peripheral
driving circuit. Use of three panels in combination
with the LCX012BL provides a full-color representation. The striped arrangement suitable for data
projectors is capable of displaying fine text and
vertical lines.
The adoption of advanced on-chip black matrix
realizes high picture quality without cross talk by
incorporating high luminance screen and cross talk
free circuit.
This panel has a polysilicon TFT high-speed
scanner and built-in function to display images
up/down and/or right/left inverse. The built-in 5V
interface circuit leads to lower voltage of timing and
control signals.
Using Sony’s timing generator “CXD2442Q” sends
timing signal necessary for LCD panel drive by
identificating computer supporting VGA automatically, and supports double-speed processed
NTSC/PAL.
Features
• The number of active dots: 312,000 (1.3-inch; 3.3cm in diagonal)
• Accepts the computer requirements of VGA platform (640 x 480)
• High optical transmittance: 25% (typ.)
• Supports NTSC/PAL by processing the video signal at double speed
• Built-in cross talk free circuit
• High contrast ratio with normally white mode: 250 (typ.)
• Built-in H and V drivers (built-in input level conversion circuit, 5V driving possible)
• Up/down and/or right/left inverse display function
Element Structure
• Dots: 644 (H) × 484 (V) = 311,696
• Built-in peripheral driver using polycrystalline silicon super thin film transistors.
Applications
• Liquid crystal data projectors
• Liquid crystal projectors, etc.

Input Equivalent Circuit
To prevent static charges, protective diodes are provided for each pin except the power supply. In addition,
protective resistors are added to all pins except video signal input. All pins are connected to VSS with a high
resistance of 1MΩ (typ.). The equivalent circuit of each input pin is shown below: (The resistor value: typ.)

Reflection Preventive Processing
When a phase substrate which rotates polarization axis is used to adjust to the polarization direction of
polarization screen or prism, use the phase substrate with reflection preventive processed on the surface.
This prevents characteristic deterioration caused by luminous reflection.

Flicker (F) is given by the formula (7). DC and AC (NTSC VGA: 30Hz, rms, PAL: 25Hz, rms) components of
the panel output signal for gray raster∗ mode are measured by a DC voltmeter and a spectrum analizer in
System II.
F [dB] = 20log { AC component } ... (7)

∗ Each input signal condition for gray raster mode is given by
Vsig = 7.0 ± V50 [V]
where: V50 is the signal amplitude which gives 50% of
transmittance in V-T characteristics.
6 Image Retention Time
Apply the monoscope signal to the LCD panel for 60 minutes and then change this signal to the gray scale
of Vsig = 7.0 ± VAC (VAC: 3 to 4V), judging by sight at VAC that hold the maximum image retention, measure
the time till the residual image becomes indistinct.

2. LCD Panel Operations
[Description of basic operations]
The basic operations of the LCD panel are shown below based on the VGA mode.
• A vertical driver, which consists of vertical shift registers, enable-gates and buffers, applies a selected pulse
to every 484 gate lines sequentially in every horizontal scanning period. Two lines of horizontal electrodes
are sequentially selected in NTSC/PAL mode.
• A horizontal driver, which consists of horizontal shift registers, gates and CMOS sample-and-hold circuits,
applies selected pulses to every 644 signal electrodes sequentially in a single horizontal scanning period.
• Vertical and horizontal shift registers address one pixel, and then Thin film Transistors (TFTs; two TFTs) turn
on to apply a video signal to the dot. The same procedures lead to the entire 484 × 644 dots to display a
picture in a single vertical scanning period.
• To change the combination of the horizontal electrode in NTSC/PAL mode, the phase of VCK need to be
inverted. Normally, switching every field maximizes vertical resolution.
• The CLR pin is provided to eliminate the shading effect caused by the coupling of selected pulses. While
maintaining the CLR at High level, the VVDD potential drops to approximately 9.5V. This pin shall be
grounded when not in use.
• The video signal shall be input with 1H-inverted system.
• Timing diagrams of the vertical for VGA mode and NTSC/PAL mode and the horizontal display cycle are

[Description of operating mode]
The LCD panel has the following functions to easily apply to various uses, as well as various broadcasting
systems.
• Right/left inverse mode
• Up/down inverse mode
These modes are controlled by two signals (RGT and DWN). The setting mode is shown below.

• To improve uniformity, the analog signals PSIG shall be input by synchronizing with SIG1 to SIG6.
• When the up-scan mode (DWN = Low level) is set, the phase of VST shall be inverted

Horizontal driver samples SIG1 to SIG6 signal simultaneously. Which requires the phase matching between
SIG1 to SIG6 signals to prevent horizontal resolution from deteriorating. Thus phase matching between each
signal is required using an external signal delaying circuit before applying video signal to the LCD panel.
The block diagram of the delaying procedure using sample-and-hold method is as follows.
The following phase relationship diagram indicates the phase setting for the right scan (RGT = High level). For
the left scan (RGT = Low level), the phase setting shall be inverted between SIG1 to SIG6 signals.

Notes on Handling
(1) Static charge prevention
Be sure to take following protective measures. TFT-LCD panels are easily damaged by static charge.
a) Use non-chargeable gloves, or simply use bare hands.
b) Use an earth-band when handling.
c) Do not touch any electrodes of a panel.
d) Wear non-chargeable clothes and conductive shoes.
e) Install conductive mat on the working floor and working table.
f) Keep panels away from any charged materials.
g) Use ionozed air to discharge the panels.
(2) Protection from dust and dirt
a) Operate in clean environment.
b) When delivered, a surface of a panel (Polarizer) is covered by a protective sheet.
Peel off the protective sheet carefully not to damage the panel.
c) Do not touch the surface of a panel. The surface is easily scratched. When cleaning, use a clean-room
wiper with isopropyl alcohol. Be careful not to leave stain on the surface.
d) Use ionized air to blow off dust at a panel.
(3) Other handling precautions
a) Do not twist or bend the flexible PC board especially at the connecting region because the board is
easily deformed.
b) Do not drop a panel.
c) Do not twist or bend a panel or a panel frame.
d) Keep a panel away from heat source.
e) Do not dampen a panel with water or other solvents.
f) Avoid to store or to use a panel in a high temperature or in a high humidity, which may result in panel
damages.
g) Minimum bent radius rating for flexible substrates is 1mm.
h) Panel screw torque should not exceed 3kg · cm.
