NEC Announces New 22.5-inch LCD Module That Supports the Full High-Definition Format

NEC introduced a new 22.5-inch (57 centimeters diagonal) amorphous-silicon thin-film-transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) module, part number NL192120AC25-02, with wide ultra-extended graphics array (WUXGA) resolution.

The new module boasts excellent picture quality, ideal for preview monitoring and verification use in broadcast stations and post-production studios, thanks to full high-definition (1920 x 1080) resolution, high luminance of 460 candelas per square meter (cd/m²), a wide color gamut of 97% (NTSC ratio) and a double frame rate of 120 Hertz to improve motion picture performance.

The main characteristics of the module are as follows.

1.High level of color reproducibility
NEC LCD Technologies’ proprietary ultra-advanced, super-fine TFT (UA-SFT) technology boasting high transmissivity achieves high luminance of 460 cd/m² and a wide color gamut of 97% (NTSC ratio). In addition, a 10-bit source driver enables the module to provide 1024 grayscale steps per each of the primary colors (RGB), thus realizing 1073 million colors per pixel. The module attains a higher color resolution than specified by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) standard, the de-facto standard for broadcast applications, and hence produces higher-quality images.

2. Support for improvement of motion picture performance
Using a double frame rate of 120 Hz, the LCD module can be used by customers in equipment such as high-performance motion picture monitors to improve motion picture performance using black frame rate insertion, or interframe interpolation.

3. Ultra-wide viewing angle
UA-SFT technology also enables an ultra-wide viewing angle of 176 degrees and reduces the color shift problem that occurs due to a change in viewing angle. Allowing greater flexibility in terms of display placement and viewing position, the module is also suitable for multi-screen use.

Availability
Samples of the NL192120AC25-02 are available immediately from Sasco Holz.
