microchip lcd display made in china

TOKYO -- China is expanding its presence in the field of key components for the electronics industry, such as liquid crystal display panels and semiconductors. In China, seven state-of-the-art LCD panel factories will come onstream over the next three years, and there has emerged a plan to construct one of the world"s largest memory chip plants.

Flat-panel displays are thin panels of glass or plastic used for electronically displaying text, images, or video. Liquid crystal displays (LCD), OLED (organic light emitting diode) and microLED displays are not quite the same; since LCD uses a liquid crystal that reacts to an electric current blocking light or allowing it to pass through the panel, whereas OLED/microLED displays consist of electroluminescent organic/inorganic materials that generate light when a current is passed through the material. LCD, OLED and microLED displays are driven using LTPS, IGZO, LTPO, and A-Si TFT transistor technologies as their backplane using ITO to supply current to the transistors and in turn to the liquid crystal or electroluminescent material. Segment and passive OLED and LCD displays do not use a backplane but use indium tin oxide (ITO), a transparent conductive material, to pass current to the electroluminescent material or liquid crystal. In LCDs, there is an even layer of liquid crystal throughout the panel whereas an OLED display has the electroluminescent material only where it is meant to light up. OLEDs, LCDs and microLEDs can be made flexible and transparent, but LCDs require a backlight because they cannot emit light on their own like OLEDs and microLEDs.

Liquid-crystal display (or LCD) is a thin, flat panel used for electronically displaying information such as text, images, and moving pictures. They are usually made of glass but they can also be made out of plastic. Some manufacturers make transparent LCD panels and special sequential color segment LCDs that have higher than usual refresh rates and an RGB backlight. The backlight is synchronized with the display so that the colors will show up as needed. The list of LCD manufacturers:

Organic light emitting diode (or OLED displays) is a thin, flat panel made of glass or plastic used for electronically displaying information such as text, images, and moving pictures. OLED panels can also take the shape of a light panel, where red, green and blue light emitting materials are stacked to create a white light panel. OLED displays can also be made transparent and/or flexible and these transparent panels are available on the market and are widely used in smartphones with under-display optical fingerprint sensors. LCD and OLED displays are available in different shapes, the most prominent of which is a circular display, which is used in smartwatches. The list of OLED display manufacturers:

MicroLED displays is an emerging flat-panel display technology consisting of arrays of microscopic LEDs forming the individual pixel elements. Like OLED, microLED offers infinite contrast ratio, but unlike OLED, microLED is immune to screen burn-in, and consumes less power while having higher light output, as it uses LEDs instead of organic electroluminescent materials, The list of MicroLED display manufacturers:

Sony produces and sells commercial MicroLED displays called CLEDIS (Crystal-LED Integrated Displays, also called Canvas-LED) in small quantities.video walls.

LCDs are made in a glass substrate. For OLED, the substrate can also be plastic. The size of the substrates are specified in generations, with each generation using a larger substrate. For example, a 4th generation substrate is larger in size than a 3rd generation substrate. A larger substrate allows for more panels to be cut from a single substrate, or for larger panels to be made, akin to increasing wafer sizes in the semiconductor industry.

The move opens the flat-panel industry to make big-screen televisions, larger computer monitors and other popular consumer electronics in China. Under details outlined Wednesday, flat-panel makers will now be able to invest and set up an unlimited number of factories that manufacture what"s known as fifth-generation or lower liquid-crystal display plants. Fifth-generation plants are equipped to make smaller panels used in computer monitors and cellphones, while higher-generation plants produce bigger panels for products such as TVs.

If flat-panel makers want to set up more advanced plants, the technology used in China must be less advanced than what the company makes in Taiwan, the ministry said. Taiwan will limit the number of more-advanced LCD plants in China to three.

Yawen Hsiao, a spokeswoman for AU Optronics Corp. (2409.TW), the world"s No. 3 flat-panel maker by revenue after South Korea"s Samsung Electronics Co. (005930.SE) and LG Display Co.

said the company will apply as soon as possible to build what"s known as a 7.5-generation plant in China. Such plants can churn out 40-inch LCD panels.

"A 7.5-G plant will bring more competitiveness to us in serving customers," Hsiao said. AU Optronics" most-advanced manufacturing facility in Taiwan is an 8.5-generation plant that can produce 50-inch class LCDs.

Taiwan moved forward with new guidelines on technology investments in China on Wednesday, announcing an easing of rules that could help its chip and LCD panel makers compete in China.

The move by Taiwanese officials follows a similar relaxation of regulations in South Korea. Late last year, two of South Korea"s biggest LCD screen makers said they had finally won government clearance to build advanced LCD factories in China. Taiwanese companies have lobbied for a similar easing of strict technology investment rules for the past several years, without success until now.

The new regulations will allow chip makers and LCD screen makers in Taiwan to invest in advanced factories in China, a potential victory for consumers if the move leads to lower prices for chips and LCD screens.

In LCD panels, new Taiwanese regulations will allow companies to build a total of three factories in China that are either 6th generation or more advanced technologically, but the factory must be at least one generation behind their most advanced factory in Taiwan. LCD technology generations refer to the size of the glass sheets used in the factories. Later generations use larger sheets of mother glass, from which several display panels are then cut. The most advanced LCD factories currently in operation are 10th-generation plants. A Taiwanese company with a 10th-generation factory, for example, would be limited to building a 9th-generation plant in China.

The government also imposed a spending limit of NT$50 billion (US$1.56 billion) per year on all China-bound investments by any LCD maker, meaning companies would have to manage their investments in all kinds of LCD-related factories such as module factories, panel factories and more. Taiwanese companies will also have to match any investment in China with a similar investment in Taiwan, the regulations say.

The Taipei government may have limited the options for Taiwanese companies. South Korea"s Samsung plans to build a 2.6 trillion won (US$2.23 billion) 7.5-generation factory in China, while LG Display said it will form a venture to build an 8th generation LCD plant in China for as much as US$4 billion.

TAIPEI, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Taiwan is mulling easing controls on the technologies its flat-panel makers can use in their China operations, as South Korean and Japanese rivals have stepped up investments there, the Commercial Times reported on Tuesday. LCD panel makers, including AU Optronicsand Chi Mei Optoelectronics, will be able to use any technologies in mainland production as long as they use more advanced technologies in Taiwan, the Chinese-language paper said, citing unnamed government officials.

LCD panel makers in Japan and South Korea have said they would invest in more advanced 7.5th- and 8.5th- generation technologies in China, posing a threat to Taiwan companies, the paper said.

Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou told Reuters on Monday the island had not considered allowing the island’s LCD firms to make large panels on the mainland for now, saying it would only cautiously export its technology expertise to China. [ID:nTP169514]

In late September, Shih said the ministry would allow chip makers and flat-panel firms to invest more in China, including using more advanced process technology for chips and allowing LCD firms to make large panels there, but gave no timetable. [ID:nTP321454]

Monochrome lcd panel is low cost LCD screen, monochrome lcd display is the mainstream in custom lcd screen because its custom tooling fee is very cheap.Monochrome LCD display included standard graphic monochrome lcd display, character lcd module, monochrome segment lcd display, monochrome tft lcd module and custom lcd screen.The monochrome lcd screen structures have COG LCD (chip on lcd glass), COB (chip on board), COF (chip on film).

An seven segment lcd display is like the below picture, it can display numbers from 0 to 9 and several letters such as C, A, b E, L, and F by control some segments "on" and "off". it is the cheapest lcd display panel.

The segment lcd also could be in Icon lcd display, that is the display content are the custom segments based on customer"s application.each segment means one icon, we could design the icon on our application.

The familiar Characters lcd modules have 16x1, 16x2, 16x4 characters, 20x1, 20x2, 20x4 characters, and 40x2, 40x4 etc, characters lcd display module. An 16x2 lcd display means 16 characters x 2 lines character on the lcd. normally, one characters is made by 5x8 pixels, we could display numbers 1~9, and A~Z letters and most of characters on the 5x8 pixels per characters.

The standard graphic lcd resolution have 96x64、96x96、122x32、128x64、128x128、160x128、160x160、192x64、240x64、240x128、320x240 etc.we could display all the characters and image in the graphic lcd display. of course, the higher resolution lcd, the display effect of image would be better.

(What is lcd resolution: )Lcd resolution means how many pixels of lcd screen,128x64 lcd resolution means 128 column x 64 row pixels on the lcd screen, we also call it 128x64 lcd display. monochrome lcd resolution could be 320x240 (QVGA) or 480x240 maximum, tft lcd resolution could be VGA (640X480) or HD (1366x768, FHD(1920x1080) or 4k2k lcd resolution.

Yes, if you only need the low quantity monochrome lcd display for your project, you could choose Maclight standard monochrome lcd, Maclight have wide range standard Characters lcd and Graphic lcd module, including COB type and COG type for your choosing. please find the standard monochrome list in the end of article, welcome to contact Maclight at [email protected]

The tooling fee of monochrome lcd panel would be around 300~500 USD, if only the simple segment lcd panel, such as TN display mode, then tooling fee would be cheaper, but if the custom lcd screen is monochrome graphic lcd panel, such as STN display panel, the tooling fee would be little higher than TN lcd panel. because the tooling mask for stn lcd would be higher than TN lcd panel. but it is only the tooling fee for monochrome lcd panel.

If for custom monochrome lcd module that with IC chip on glass, we call it COG LCD module, the tooling fee would be more higher, because if for custom TN or STN lcd display panel, the tooling mask can be made by PI film, while for custom monochrome COG LCD module, the custom COG LCD tooling mask would be used the metal mask, the tooling fee would be more higher to around 1500~2000 USD.

Besides the custom lcds panel, for some custom lcd mode that in transmissive lcd or transflective lcd display mode, because lcd panel is passive display, instead of oled display, lcd panel can not emit light by itself, it have to use the backlight, the backlight tooling fee would be upper than 1000 USD or more, the more complicating structure on the backlight, the tooling fee would be higher. for saving the cost of tooling fee on lcd backlight, the simple structure would be cheaper.

The MOQ of custom lcd display for monochrome lcd is calculated based on the mother-glass of LCD panel, some person may ask, what is mother-glass of lcd panel? is it the mother of lcd panel? no, no,no..., it is just a joke, the mother-glass of lcd is the primary glass of lcd, we also call it ITO glass, because it have an ITO layer on the glass. the lcd panels are array on the mother glass in manufacturing lcd panel, and cutting it one by one after lcd cell production finished. the main mother glass sizes if 14"x16", as in lcd manufacturing, for stable running in the full-auto machine line, it is at least 50 set of 14"x16" for an production running, that is the smaller sizes of lcd, the bigger MOQ of lcd quantity is necessary.

1. Confirm the sizes what you would like to custom making? the custom mono lcd displays would be mainly less than 10", the custom sizes is up to the mother glass of lcd panels that is less than 14"x16". the custom mono lcd can be custom made the random sizes below 10".

If you would not like to custom lcd display, you could choose the standard lcd from the following list, it is no MOQ requirement for the standard lcd.

Monochrome lcd display have TN, STN LCD, monochrome tft lcd types. the monochrome lcd could be with or without backlight. even for monochrome lcd display, it have difference LCD colors for choosing, such as yellow-green mode, blue mode, gray mode, black-white mode, negative display mode and positive display available. the backlight color could be white, green, orange, yellow-green colors.
