NEC LCD Technologies to Launch New TFT LCD Module with Wide Aspect Ratio Suitable for Display of Multimedia Information in Portable Terminals.Tokyo, Japan, June 2, 2006 - (JCN JCN Japan Corporate News JCN Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience JCN Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing JCN Journal of Christian Nursing JCN Job Control Number JCN Journal of Child Neurology JCN joint communications network (US DoD) Newswire) - NEC (NEC Corporation, Tokyo, www.nec.com, www.necus.com) An electronics conglomerate known in the U.S. for its monitors. In Japan, it had the lion's share of the PC market until the late 1990s (see PC 98). NEC was founded in Tokyo in 1899 as Nippon Electric Company, Ltd. LCD Technologies, Ltd. (NEC LCD Technologies) today announced that in June, it will begin shipping samples of its new 4.3-inch (10.9-centimeters-diagonal) amorphous-silicon, thin-film-transistor (TFT (Thin Film Transistor) The term typically refers to active matrix screens on laptop computers. Active matrix LCD provides a sharper screen display and broader viewing angle than does passive matrix. See LCD and thin film. TFT - Thin Film transistor ) liquid crystal display liquid crystal display (LCD) Optoelectronic device used in displays for watches, calculators, notebook computers, and other electronic devices. Current passed through specific portions of the liquid crystal solution causes the crystals to align, blocking the passage of light. (LCD) module, part number NL4827HC19-01B, with wide quarter video graphics array “320x240” redirects here. For the Croatian festival, see 320x240 (festival). The Quarter Video Graphics Array (also known as Quarter VGA or QVGA) is a popular term for a computer display with 320 × 240 resolution. (WQVGA) display technology and resolution of 480 x 272 pixels. Next-generation portable display terminals such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), photo viewers and global positioning systems (GPS) require very advanced functionality to be able to store and reproduce large animation files. Therefore, the demand for large screens with higher resolutions and aspect ratios of 16:9 is rising. NEC LCD Technologies has designed its new TFT-LCD TFT-LCD Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display module, the first of its kind, to meet these demands and be the display device of choice in next-generation portable terminal applications. Major Features - Wide screen with 16:9 aspect ratio - High luminance of 350 candelas per square meters (cd/m2) that provides excellent lighting on the liquid crystal panel and in the backlight back·light n. A type of spotlight, used in photography, that illuminates a subject from behind. tr.v. back·light·ed or back·lit , back·light·ing, back·lights system - A touch panel that makes the new TFT-LCD module an excellent choice for use in mobile terminals and which can lead to reduced development costs and shorter lead times for manufacturers of portable devices NEC LCD Technologies will continue to commercialize products with better display technologies and higher functionality, including small LCD modules for portable devices that aim to contribute to a user-friendly networked information society. The new TFT-LCD module will be displayed at SID 2006 at the Moscone Convention Center, San Francisco, USA, from June 5-9. Main Specifications of the New 4.3-Inch LCD Module

NEC LCD Technologies, Ltd. is one of the world's leading providers of high-quality, innovative, active-matrix liquid crystal display An active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD) is a type of flat panel display, currently the overwhelming choice of notebook computer manufacturers, due to light weight, very good image quality, wide color gamut, and response time. The term was first used in 1975 by Dr T. (AM-LCDs) modules for the industrial and high-end monitor markets. The company focuses its development on three core technology areas: ultra-wide viewing angle SFT SFT Statens Forurensningstilsyn (Norwegian Pollution Control Authority) SFT System Fault Tolerance SFT Shaft SFT Secure File Transfer SFT School Food Trust (UK) SFT Societe Francaise des Traducteurs technology, with high luminance and fast response; transflective NLT NLT abbr. night letter technology; and adaptive design technology that meet a variety of specialized needs for the flat panel display A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time markets. NEC LCD Technologies' worldwide support includes sales and marketing affiliates NEC Electronics America, Inc. (www.necelam.com) and NEC Electronics Europe (www.nec.de) that offer specialized display solutions to their respective markets. NEC LCD Technologies employs approximately 1,200 people worldwide and offers one of the broadest product portfolios for the medical, factory automation, test and measurement, entertainment, kiosk, POS (1) See point of sale and packet over SONET.
