lcd panel lookup factory
While there are many different manufacturers of LCD monitors, the panels themselves are actually only manufactured by a relatively small selection of companies. The three main manufacturers tend to be Samsung, AU Optronics and LG.Display (previously LG.Philips), but there are also a range of other companies like Innolux and CPT which are used widely in the market. Below is a database of all the current panel modules manufactured in each size. These show the module number along with important information including panel technology and a detailed spec. This should provide a detailed list of panels used, and can give you some insight into what is used in any given LCD display.
Note:These are taken from manufacturer product documentation and panel resource websites. Specs are up to date to the best of our knowledge, and new panels will be added as and when they are produced. Where gaps are present, the detail is unknown or not listed in documentation. The colour depth specs are taken from the manufacturer, and so where they specify FRC and 8-bit etc, this is their listing. Absence of such in the table below does not necessarily mean they aren’t using FRC etc, just that this is how the manufacturer lists the spec on their site.
For example a Dell XPS 15 (L502X) has a Dell Part Number of VVR75 or 0VVR75, it has an LCD Part Number: XM5XG and a manufacturer P/N: N156B6 -L0B. The Letter N tells us that the manufacturer is CHI MEI and the 156 that this is a 15.6 inch screen.
Below is a list of LCD screen manufacturers with their abbreviations - if you click on the name (in blue) you will see an example of that manufacturer"s parts label.
LG Display is a large South Korean company and the world"s largest LCD maker, followed by Samsung Electronics. Currently, the two companies together control nearly 50% of the global LCD market. LG Display is headquartered in Seoul, South Korea.
Chungwha Picture Tubes, Ltd. (CPT) is one of Taiwan"s, and the world"s, leading manufacturers of thin-film transistor liquid crystal displays, or TFT-LCDs. Ranked number three in the Taiwan TFT panel market.
Sharp, a Japanese electronics manufacturer, has developed into one of the leading electronics companies in the world. LCD technology continues to be a key part of Sharp"s product range, in both the component and the consumer-applicance sides of the business.
Hyundai Display Technology Inc. (HYDIS) of Ichon, Korea, is an industry leader in the development, sales, marketing and distribution of high-quality LCD, which is a spin-off from HYNIX Semiconductor Inc. Boe Hydis (Formerly Hyundai Displays Korea)
Quanta Display Inc. is a Taiwanese company established in 1999, manufacturing thin film transistor-liquid crystal display panels. It merged with AU Optronics.
AU Optronics is one of the top 3 worldwide manufacturers of thin film transistor liquid crystal display panels (TFT-LCD), and is the largest in Taiwan. AUO provides customers a full range of panel sizes and comprehensive applications, offering TFT-LCD panels in sizes ranging from 1.5 inches to greater than 65 inches.
On most LCD screens there is no calibration at all. As the background LED is manufactured by a one manufacturer, the LCD manufacturer (just the LED panel without back-light) is generated by another. Since the LCD manufacturer doesn"t know which LEDs are going to be used, pre-calibration is impossible.
If you need exact colors it would be a good idea to purchase a panel with a built in driver that has some sort of color correction mechanism or you will have to write one yourself on the MCU/CPU side.
Even if you do find an LCD panel that has a built in driver that support calibration (3x4 matrix, 2D functions or even a 3D LUT engine) you should generate the calibration data with a colorimator (like x-rite or spyder). Doing this by the naked eye is quite hard (impossible??)
Fluctuations in brightness and chromaticity on different parts of the screen are a common trait of LCD monitors. To counteract this, the monitor incorporates EIZO"s patented digital uniformity equalizer (DUE) technology to ensure a Delta-E difference of 3 or less across the screen when the monitor leaves the factory. DUE also counterbalances the influences that a fluctuating ambient temperature may have on color temperature and brightness to ensure stable image display.
EIZO"s UniColor Pro software simulates color blindness when used with select EIZO LCD monitors. It allows designers to see how their printed materials, signs, web contents, videos, etc. will appear to those with color blindness.
All ColorEdge monitors offer you the advantage of having an excellent wide-gamut LCD panel, which is controlled by highly specialized EIZO microprocessors, and ColorNavigator, the powerful calibration software. Each and every monitor is guaranteed to produce an unadulterated look at image files thanks to calibration at the factory and precise calibration of the brightness and color purity. All EIZO ColorEdge LCDs are manufactured in our own factory in Japan adhering to strict quality assurance measures, so it is possible for EIZO to offer a five-year manufacturer’s warranty. Find the right 24-inch ColorEdge monitor for you.
Take a close look at an EIZO monitor and you will see that you cannot buy a monitor like this anywhere else. Our products are unique because we are a unique company; we still design, manufacture, and quality control test our products in house. As more companies outsource development and production to third parties, we remain convinced that the best way to deliver the quality that our customers expect is to retain control over our manufacturing and quality control processes. In fact, EIZO is the only remaining Japanese brand of desktop LCD monitors that still manufactures its products in Japan.
Westinghouse Electronics warrants this LED/LCD Monitor against defects in material or workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the original date of purchase, subject to the following terms and conditions:
LCD monitors commonly exhibit fluctuations in brightness and chromaticity across the screen, affecting color accuracy. To counter this, ColorEdge monitors are equipped with EIZO"s patented digital uniformity equalizer (DUE) technology which corrects deviations in every tone across the screen to ensure stable display.
The monitor is equipped with an IPS non-glare panel for high visibility. It also uses dimming technology to minimize flicker and help prevent eye fatigue for a more comfortable working environment.
The 178° wide viewing angles afforded by the IPS panel technology allow two or more people to view the screen at once with little change in color or contrast.
ColorEdge monitors are backed by a manufacturer"s 5-year warranty that covers all components including the LCD panel*. EIZO manufactures its products at its own factories to allow close control over production quality and ensure each monitor is built to last.
