Active-matrix TFT-LCDs from 0.96 in to 15.6 in with sunlight-readable, ruggedized, anti-glare, LOCA-bonded, and touch-integrated configurations across LVDS, MIPI, RGB, SPI, USB, and I2C interfaces.

Overview

Thin-Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Displays continue to gain ground due to increasing size availability, user-interface flexibility, end-user appeal, and continual R&D investment from cell suppliers and module integrators. At Polytronix we offer a growing roster of standard industry sizes — the PT-series — and continue to add sizes as new cell families become available. All TFT standards can be modified to fit customer specifications.

Common configuration options include ruggedized builds; sunlight readability; anti-glare and anti-reflective surface treatments; extended temperature ranges; LVDS, MIPI, RGB, SPI, USB, and I2C host interfaces; capacitive and resistive touch panels; Optically Bonded Touch Panel (LOCA) integration that eliminates the air gap between display and cover glass; monochrome TFT; and wearable ultra-thin TFT for slim industrial-design products. Brightness configurations span 200 to 1500 nits across the active-matrix range.

Polytronix also offers a TFT Development Board designed and preprogrammed to work with selected standard TFT modules. A preloaded micro-SD card can easily be loaded with custom images, and the included instruction manual gets engineering teams to a working prototype faster than building a host interface from scratch.

Relevant Capabilities

Monochrome and ultra-thin TFT

Monochrome TFT supports parameter, waveform, and status display where color is not required, and wearable ultra-thin TFT enables slim industrial-design products and wrist-worn devices.

TFT Development Board

Polytronix offers a TFT Development Board pre-programmed for selected standard TFT modules. A preloaded micro-SD card accepts custom images and the included instruction manual accelerates evaluation.
