[ Note 1 ] Backlight driving conditions (operating frequency fL especially) may interfere with
horizontal frequency fH, causing the beat or flicker on the display. Therefore the
operating frequency fL shall be adjusted in relation to horizontal frequency fH to
avoid interference.
[ Note 2 ] The inverter open voltage should be larger than start up voltage, otherwise
backlight may blinking for a moment after turns on or not be turned on. And this
voltage should be applied to lamp for more than 1 second to start up, otherwise
backlight may not be turned on.
[ Note 3 ] If driving current waveform is asymmetrical, mercury deviation inside of CFL will
incline to one side and consequently abnormal lighting may occur.
To prevent such unfavorable lighting, driving current waveform is asked to have
unbalance rate of less than 10% and wave-height rate of less than √
2 ± 10%.
And this driving waveform shall be confirmed in your system.
Unbalance rate = | Ip - I-p | / IL × 100 (%)
Ip
Wave-height rate = Ip (or I-p) / IL

: High peak value

(Recommend)
OFF
When the power is off, Logic input must be kept at either low level or high impedance.
Power sequence for CFL (backlight) is not specified especially, however it is
recommended to consider some timing difference between Logic input as shown above.
If backlight lights on before LCD starts function, or if backlight is kept on after LCD
stopped function, screen may look white for a moment or abnormal image may be
displayed.
This is caused by variation in output signal from timing generator at Logic input on or

PRECAUTIONS (INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE AND PROPER USE)
1. Instructions for safety
(1)
Please do not disassemble or modify LCD module to avoid the possibility of
electric shock, damage of electronic components, scratch at display surface and
invasion of foreign particles. In addition, such activity may result in fire accident
due to burning of electronic component.
LCD module disassembled or modified by customer is out of warranty.
(2)
Please be careful in handling of LCD module with broken glass.
When the display glass breaks, please pay attention not to injure your fingers. The
display surface has the plastic film attached, which prevents dispersion of glass
pieces, however touching broken edge will injure your fingers. Also CFL (Cold
Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) is made of glass, therefore please pay attention in the
same way.
(3)
Please do not touch the fluid flown out of broken display glass.
If the fluid should stick to hand or clothes, wipe off with soap or alcohol immediately
and then wash it with water. If the fluid should get in eyes, wash eyes immediately
with washing lotion for more than 15 minutes and then consult the doctor.
(4)
Please make secure connection of CFL connector.
Please make sure that CFL connector from LCD module is connected with output
connector on inverter circuit securely. Poor connection may cause smoke or fire
accident due to high voltage in circuit. If connection may not be secure, please
switch off the power supply for LCD module and CFL and then make secure
connection.
Please do not make connection with another connector than recommended mating
connector.
(5)
CFL contains mercury inside. Please follow regulations or rules established by
local autonomy at its disposal.
(6)
Please be careful to electric shock.
Before handling LCD module, please switch off the power supply.
Since high voltage is applied to CFL terminal, cable, connector and inverter circuit
in operation mode, touching them will cause electric shock.
2. Instructions for designing
(1)
Mounting of LCD
Please fix LCD module at all mounting flanges shown in this specification for
installation onto system. The used screws should have proper dimensions.
Furthermore, designing of mounting parts should be adequate so that LCD module
is not warped or twisted, to achieve good display quality.
(2)
Polarity of power supply for CFL
Please give careful consideration in designing so that each polar of cable should
be connected correctly at assembling (i.e. high voltage side is connected to high
voltage side and low voltage side is connected to low voltage side). Since longer
CFL cable may cause insatiable start-up of CFL and reduction of brightness,
please make cable short as much as possible.

(3)
Designing of power supply circuit for CFL
Please design the circuit so that high voltage output can be kept for more than 1
second. The shorter time may not start up CFL. The driving inverter circuit is
recommended to be the type which CFL current can be controlled.
The type which voltage is controlled is not recommended, because it may cause
big current under high temperature and insatiable start-up of CFL under low
temperature.
(4)
Heat radiation
CFL generates heat at lighting and causes temperature rise inside system.
Therefore, designing to radiate heat like radiation slits at cabinet is recommended
to meet the specified operating temperature range for LCD module.
(5)
Noise on power line
Spike noise contained in power line causes abnormal operation of driving circuit
and abnormal display. To avoid it, spike noise should be suppressed below VDD
± 200mVp-p. (In any case, absolute maximum rating should be kept.)
(6)
Power sequence
Before LCD module is switched on, please make sure that power supply and input
signals of system, testing equipment, etc. meet the recommended power
sequence.
(7)
Absolute maximum rating
Absolute maximum rating specified in this specification has to be kept in any case.
It shows the maximum that cannot be exceeded.
Exceeding it may cause burning or non-recoverable break of electronic
components in circuit. Please make system design so that absolute maximum
rating is not exceeded even if ambient temperature, input signal and components
are varied.
(8)
Protection for power supply
Please study to adapt protection for power supply against trouble of LCD module,
depending on usage condition of system. Fuse installed on LCD module should be
never modified. Any modification to make the function of fuse ineffective may
cause burning or break of printed wiring board or other components at circuit
trouble.
(9)
Protection against electric shock
High voltage is applied to CFL connector, inverter circuit and CFL at lighting.
Please make design not to expose or be accessible to such high voltage parts to
avoid electric shock.
(10) Protection cover and cut-off filter for ultraviolet rays
When LCD module is used under severe condition like outdoor, it is recommended
to use transparent protection cover over display surface to avoid scratches and
invasion of dust and water. In addition, when LCD module is exposed to direct sun
light for long time, use of cut-off filter for ultraviolet rays is also recommended.
Please be careful not to get condensation.
3. Instructions for use and handling
(1)
Protection against Static electricity
C-MOS LSI and semiconductors are easily damaged by static discharge. LCD
module should be handled on conductive mat by person grounded with wrist strap
etc. to avoid getting static electricity. Please be careful not to generate static
electricity during operation.

(2)
Protection against dust and stain
LCD module should be handled in circumstance as clean as possible.
It is recommended to wear fingerstalls or ductless and soft gloves before handling
to avoid getting dust or stain on display surface.
(3)
Protection film for display surface
It is recommended to remove protection film at nearly final process of assembling
to avoid getting scratch or dust. To remove film, please pick up its edge with dullhead tweezers or cellophane tape at first and then remove film gradually taking
more than 3 seconds. If film is removed quickly, static electricity may be generated
and may damage semiconductors or electronic components.
(4)
Contamination of display surface
When display surface of LCD module is contaminated, please wipe the surface
softly with cotton swab or clean cloth. If it is not enough, please take it away with
cellophane tape or wipe the surface with cotton swab or clean cloth containing

(13) Temperature dependence of LCD display
Response speed (optical response) of LCD display is dependent on temperature.
Under low temperature, response speed is slower.
Also brightness and chromaticity change slightly depending on temperature.
(14) Slow light-up of CFL under low temperature
Under low temperature, start-up of CFL gets difficult. (The time from switch-on to
stable lighting becomes longer.)
As characteristic of CFL, operation under low temperature makes the life time
shorter. To avoid this, it is recommended to operate under normal temperature.
(15) Condensation
LCD module may get condensation on its display surface and inside in the
circumstance where temperature changes much in short time.
Condensation can cause deterioration or failure. Therefore, please be careful not
to get condensation.
(16) Remaining of image
Displaying the same pattern for long time may cause remaining of image even
after changing the pattern. This is not failure but will disappear with time.
4. Instructions for storage and transportation
(1)
Storage
Please store LCD module in the dark place of room temperature and low humidity
in original packing condition, to avoid condensation that may cause failure.
Since sudden temperature change may cause condensation, please store in
circumstance of stable temperature.
(2)
Stacking number
Since excessive weight causes deformation and damage of carton box, please
stack only up to the number stated on carton box for storage and transportation.
(3)
Handling
Since LCD module consists of glass and precise electronic components, it will be
damaged by excessive shock and drop. Therefore, please handle the carton box
