Modern AUO TFT displays are equipped with LCD technology what means that they are very robust and user-oriented so the displays can be used in various operational areas. LCD`s are very diffused – you can find them in POI and POS systems or Touchscreens – basically everywhere.

AUO Corporation ("AUO" or the "Company") (TAIEX: 2409; NYSE: AUO) today announces a full range of 16:9 LCD panels for information technology display applications, among which the world’s first 21.5-inch 1080p Full HD resolution panel for desktop grabs the spotlight. The product lineup will be exhibited at Display Taiwan 2008 at TWTC (Taipei World Trade Center) from June 11 to June 13. It is expected that this 16:9 widescreen trend for IT display will accelerate the pervasion of digital media contents.

To meet the fast growing trend of digital contents, AUO launches 16:9 widescreen series including 4 MoniTV LCD panels: 24-inch Full HD, 21.5-inch Full HD, 18.5-inch and 15-inch, as well as 2 LED notebook PC LCD panels: 15.6-inch and 14-inch. These products provide complete solutions for different market segments. Among the desktop application lineup, the 21.5-inch Full HD model is the smallest of all AUO’s Full HD products. Its excellent specifications of 1080p Full HD high resolution, 1000:1 high contrast and 5ms fast response time can fulfill the requirements for running digital contents. This 21.5-inch TFT-LCD is perfect for students as an entry model to Full HD LCD monitors.

For notebook PC application, both 15.6-inch and 14-inch TFT-LCDs are green products equipped with LED backlight, HD high resolution, 500:1 high contrast and 60% high color saturation. Above all, its innovative bottom PCB structure can effectively diminish the noise when using Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN).

“16:9 widescreen LCD panels are the trend for information technology display applications, and it is one of our focuses at Display Taiwan 2008 exhibition,” said Michael Tsai, General Manager of IT Display Business Group of AUO.“The migration from 16:10 to 16:9 in widescreen market has gone fast. After AUO launched the 24-inch 16:9 Full HD LCD panel for desktop in the first quarter this year which became a big hit in the market, we released another 3 models for desktop in the second quarter; we will complete our 16:9 lineups for desktop with 27-inch model by the end of this year. In the near future, we plan to utilize LED-backlit green LCD panels for 16:9 desktop products. For notebook PC application, AUO aims to be the forerunner of 16:9 widescreen LCD panels with LED backlight. We will release another 4 LED-backlit panels: 10.1-inch, 11.6-inch, 13.3-inch, and 17.3-inch by the first half of 2009. AUO will take the lead in 16:9 aspect in IT display area, so as to provide consumers better enjoyment in digital media and Full HD contents such as Blue Ray DVD playback or high definition TV broadcasting.”

December 2020 AUO 9.4-inch high resolution flexible micro LED display technology honored with 2020 Innovative Product Award from Hsinchu Science Park

BECK Elektronik Display GmbH (BED), a company of the BECK Elektronik Group, is specifically designed for the marketing and sale of displays since 2016. BED carries in its portfolio the high quality displays of AU Optronics Corportation (AUO) based in Hsinchu, Taiwan, one of the largest manufacturers for TFT manufacturers in the world.

In 2001, AUO was formed by the merger of Acer Display Technology, Inc. and Unipac Opto-electronics Corporation. Known worldwide for excellent product quality, AUO manufactures displays for industrial, automotive, medical, PID as well as notebook and monitor applications. Different production lines from Gen 3.5 to Gen 8.5 offer AUO the possibility to always effectively use its own strengths in each area. Technologically, AU Optronics can offer its own products in the field of Projected Capacitive (PCAP) Touch technologies for Human Machine Interface (HMI) in addition to all available TFT technologies.

AUOis the first TFT-LCD product company to be listed on the NYSE, and in 2004 it ranked 17th in Business Week‘s »Global IT Companies« section. In 2022, AUO Display+ (ADP) spins off from the umbrella organization AU Optronics Corporation and continues to operate the GD (General Display) and PD (Public Display) lines separately from the consumer business. This will enable ADP to respond even more flexibly to customer requirements. These include, for example, display enhancement capabilities or offering ready-bonded display touch cover glass units.

AUO, together with ITRI, developed a new 17.3" transparent microLED display, and deployed a few of these displays in a ferry operated by the Taiwan Kaohsiung Shipping Company. The Snoopy-featured Yawan Smart Ferry, will set sail for the first time on December 24, connecting Zhanerku, Cijin, and Gushan. The gesture-controlled AI smart window screen navigation system combines AR and eye tracking to show tourists information based on what they are looking at.

PlayNitride is planning for an IPO, and if all goes according to plan, the company will issue new shares and will start trading at the newly launched Taiwan Stock Exchange Innovation Board in Q3 2022.

AU Optronics have been showing new microLED display prototypes, and the following video from Insight Media shows the company"s booth and new displays at SID Displayweek 2022.

You can see AUO"s stretchable 141 PPI display (a very interesting demo, developed together with PlayNitride), the rollable 14.6" 2K (202 PPI) LTPS microLED display, AUO"s 1.4" circular 454x454 (326 PPI) microLED another stretchable microLED, this one 6.45" in size with a 900x450 resolution (163 PPI), and finally AUO"s 17.3" 2000-nits 1280x720 transparent (60% transparency) microLED prototype.

AUO will show a rollable 14.6" microLED display, that offers a 2K resolution (202 PPI) with a 40 mm rolling radius. The company will also show a 17.3" 2000-nits 1280x720 transparent (60% transparency) microLED prototype. In 2021 the company demonstrated a smaller transparent display, which was even brighter at 3,000 nits.

According to reports from Korea, Samsung Display recently approached AU Optronics with a request to develop a 12.7" microLED LTPS TFT backplane to be used in Samsung"s MicroLED TVs.

These new backplanes will be used in Samsung"s 2022 microLED TVs. This will be a change from Samsung"s current microLED TVs that use printed circuit boards (PCBs), and will allow Samsung to release TVs with higher pixel densities, and thus enable smaller 4K TVs. According to the report, Samsung"s plan is to launch 89-inch, 101-inch and 114-inch LTPS-based microLED TVs in 2022.

AUO Optronics is showing its latest microLED ALED display prototypes at SID DisplayWeek 2021. Most of these aren"t new display (AUO already demonstrated these last month) but it"s the first time we got these on video:

You can see the 1.39" 472x472 (338 PPI) full-circle microLED display, developed together with PlayNitride. You can also see AUO"s 12.1-inch 169PPI microLED display it first demonstrated in SID 2020, and the 9.4-inch 228 PPI flexible microLED prototype it also developed together with PlayNitride.

The first display, which you see above,is a 1.39-inch 472x472 (338 PPI) full-circle microLED display. AUO says that this is the highest-density MicroLED display ever developed. AUO did not disclose more about this display (which was developed together with PlayNitride) but the company says that it offers ultra-wide viewing angles and high brightness.

AU Optronics released this nice video that shows its latest microLED display prototypes. First up is the company"s 12.1" automotive display. This one features a 1920x720 (169 PPI) resolution, and is made on an LTPS backplane. This display was shown first in 2018.

AU Optronics Corporation is Taiwan"s largest producer of flat panel displays--that is, thin film transistor liquid crystal display panels, or TFT-LCDs--and is also the world"s number three manufacturer, trailing only South Korea"s Samsung and LG-Philips. As the first Taiwanese company to begin producing active matrix LCDs in the early 1990s, AU Optronics has played a leading role in Taiwan"s transformation as one of the world"s high-technology centers. The company has expanded its production from small-sized panels to the latest-generation large-scale panels, such as Taiwan"s first high-definition 46-inch television panel, debuted in late 2003. AU Optronics also has developed a strong in-house research and development component, which has enabled it to become the first in the world to produce an amorphous silicon-based TFT OLED (organic light-emitting display). The company expects to put this technology into practice producing panels for new generation mobile telephones--including those produced by sister company BenQ, Taiwan"s leading mobile phone producer. AU Optronics operates subsidiaries in Taiwan, Japan, China, the United States, and The Netherlands, with production based in Taiwan and in Suzhou, China. In 2003, AU Optronics posted revenues of more than TWD 104 billion ($3.1 billion), multiplying its sales by more than 18 times since 1999. The company is led by Chairman K.Y. Lee, who is also chairman of BenQ Corporation.

With RCA"s assistance, ERSO successfully launched Taiwan"s first IC production facility. In 1980, the government body spun off the IC line into a new company, United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC). UMC at first turned out small chips for the consumer market, such as for use in digital wristwatches. Through the decade, however, UMC continued to develop its technology--and the sophistication of its production capacity. Commodity production remained, however, a major part of the company"s business.

In 1985, UMC became the first of Taiwan"s IC producers to go public, listing on the Taiwan Stock Exchange. The listing enabled the company to begin pursuing a diversification into other emerging technologies. One of these was the small but potentially vast market for liquid crystal display (LCD) panels. UMC"s interest turned toward the development of thin-film transistor (TFT) technology, and in 1990 the company backed the founding of a new company dedicated to the development of TFT-LCD technology, called Unipac Optoelectronics. UMC was to remain a major Unipac shareholder throughout the decade.

Turning once again to foreign partners in a series of technology transfer agreements, Unipac set out to build its own first-generation production plant, known as Fab L1 within the company, at the newly built HsinChu Science-based Industrial Park. That facility began testing in the early 1990s, and by 1994 had launched full-scale production.

Portable computers, however, represented the most buoyant market for TFT-LCD technology. At the middle of the decade, the 10.5-inch form factor became the industry standard. Yet, Unipac, like other emerging Taiwanese LCD manufacturers, continued to lag behind its larger competitors in Japan and Korea, while depending on technology brought in from these countries and elsewhere. At the same time, Unipac faced impending pressure from a number of new competitors, which were ramping up to production of their own large-size panels in the latter half of the 1990s.

One of the new companies was Acer Display Technologies (ADT), which was founded as a subsidiary of the fast-growing computer group in 1996. ADT"s ambitions took a big step forward in 1998, when the company signed a technology transfer agreement with IBM. Not to be outdone, Unipac reached its own technology transfer agreement that year with Japan"s Matsushita. Both agreements promised to boost Taiwan"s capacity for producing large-sized TFT-LCD panels.

The agreement with Matsushita enabled Unipac to complete its second-generation fab, which began mass production in 1999. The company"s entry into the large-sized panels market launched its transformation. From sales of just $20 million in 1998, Unipac entered a period of explosive growth. By the end of 1999, the company"s revenues topped $70 million.

By March 2000, Unipac launched its first 17-inch TFT-LCD, becoming the first in Taiwan to produce in the larger than 15-inch category. The company followed that triumph with a listing on the Taiwan Stock Exchange, ultimately reducing UMC"s stake in Unipac to just 40 percent. Soon after Unipac"s public offering, it was joined on the stock exchange by ADT, also making its stock market debut. By the end of 2000, Unipac had launched mass production in its newest Generation 3.5 facility, FAB L3m, capable of producing 60,000 sheets per month. In the meantime, Unipac continued producing its original small-sized screens, capturing the world"s number two position in that market, behind leader Sharp of Japan.

UMC had in the meantime been structuring its operations, shedding its commodity ICs business to refocus itself as a pure-play semiconductor foundry. As part of that effort, UMC sought a means to spin off its LCD business. In 2001, Unipac found a new partner when Acer agreed to spin off its own display panels subsidiary ADT into a new, merged company together with Unipac, called AU Optronics. The chairman"s seat at the new company was taken by K.Y. Lee, who also served as chairman at another Acer offshoot, BenQ Corporation.

AU Optronics" combined production capacity--which included two LCD facilities from ADT--placed it among the global industry"s leaders, and also gave it the top position in the domestic market. The company"s combined clout encouraged it to launch an effort to gain greater control of its technology requirement. In 2000, AU Optronics opened its research and development facility in Hsinchu. As the company"s executive vice-president, Lu Po-Yen toldEBN: "The research and development of various types of new products has become the key for us to surpass our current high position and quicken the pace of our ascension to the world"s no. 1 flat-panel-display company."

As part of that effort, the company pledged to spend some $300 million leading up to 2005, doubling its previous research spending. The effort began to pay off toward the end of 2002, when the company displayed its first fifth-generation LCD panel. By then, the company also had finished development on the world"s first amorphous silicon-based organic light-emitted display (OLED). The company formally debuted the completed product, a four-inch screen, in 2003.

By the end of 2002, AU Optronics" research and development push began paying off for the company--in that year, AU Optronics led the market in filing for new patents, with 265 patent rights applications. AU Optronics also had been stepping up its production, including the June 2002 launch of a new fab in Suzhou, on the Chinese mainland, with a production capacity of 50,000 LCD modules per month.

By 2003, AU Optronics was able to claim the number three position worldwide in shipments of large-sized TFT-LCD panels, as the market for computer peripherals and especially for new LCD-based televisions began to take off worldwide. In August of that year, the company launched production of the world"s first 30-inch wide LCD television panel. This was followed soon after by the debut of the first Taiwan-built 46-inch HDTV LCD panel. At the other end of the scale, AU Optronics began targeting the mobile phone market, launching production of its own low-power screens. The company also sought to gain a foothold in the palm-sized market, debuting Taiwan"s first two-inch transreflective LCD screen in October 2003. By the end of that year, the company"s annual sales had soared past TWD 104 billion ($3.1 billion).

As it entered 2004, AU Optronics had launched construction of a new sixth-generation LCD fab, slated for completion in 2005. The company also began plans for a new seventh-generation fab, originally scheduled to enter mass production in 2007. However, poor market conditions--a drop-off in demand in late 2004 combined with the rapidly falling prices of LCD-based televisions and computer monitors--forced AU Optronics to consider placing the opening of the new facility on hold. Nonetheless, AU Optronics seemed on course to achieve its goal of becoming the world"s leading maker of TFT-LCD screens by the middle of the decade.

2004: The company launches construction of a sixth-generation production plant, slated to open in 2005; the company considers suspending construction of a seventh-generation plant due to poor market conditions.

We have some updates from AU Optronics about their panel development plans which is always interesting to see. This is AUO as a panel manufacturer, as opposed to any specific monitor/display manufacturer, but it gives an indication of where monitors are likely to go in the future by looking ahead at the panel production plans. AUO make a large portion of the IPS-type panels (their ‘AHVA’ technology) in the market which is always of interest along with a range of interesting TN Film options. Please keep in mind that the production dates are not set in stone and may change, and there is then also a lag of several months before a panel is produced, then used in a display and launched to market. We will update our panel parts database with all the new information we have as well as best we can.

If you missed it, our last update from AUO was July 2021 and worth a read back. Here are the highlights from this new update. We also have updates coming soon for BOE so stay tuned for that, and have recently published updates from LG.Display here.

In our last update in July 2021 there’s wasn’t very much information listed for this new panel, but we knew AUO were developing new 24.5″ sized TN Film panel with a 360Hz native refresh rate. So far the only 360Hz panels released to market have been by AUO with their IPS-type technology, as featured in screens like the Asus ROG Swift PG259QN we tested back in Sept 2020. Some gamers still prefer TN Film panels for additional snappiness and for competitive gaming so it will be interesting to see what AUO can manage in this sector too.

If 360Hz isn’t enough for you, then we first saw a sneak peak of this even higher refresh rate panel from AUO in early May, where as part of a video promoting their new AmLED backlight technology (discussed more below) they also mentioned briefly a new 480Hz TN Film panel. We had very little information but soon after Asus announced their new ROG Swift display which was based on this panel and offered a 500Hz refresh rate.

Actually, looking at the latest AUO roadmap it seems there are aspirations to offer this panel at 540Hz, or at least that is mentioned within the specs!

Perhaps AUO are still locking down just how fast this panel will be, and it will be linked to how fast response times can reach as well to make the super-high refresh rate viable. We do know now that the panel part will be the M241HTN01.0 and will offer a 24.1″ screen size and 1920 x 1080 Full HD resolution. The response time spec from AUO is listed as “<3ms G2G” and also “2ms on/off”, and this will need to reach reliably under 2ms across the transitions to make 500Hz viable, or <1.85ms if they want to push to 540Hz. Time will tell if this is possible from their new panel. It is TN Film though which holds some promise.

In other specs interestingly AUO list HDR 1000 support meaning a peak brightness for HDR of at least 1000 nits. It also has a 96-zone AmLED backlight. That’s an unexpected but pleasant surprise. More information about AmLED and their other panels using this backlight tech below. This is a decent number of zones (not amazing, but decent) and will offer a high peak brightness capability as well. We don’t know if perhaps there will be other iterations of this panel so we can’t be certain at this stage whether announced models like the Asus ROG Swift 500Hz will offer this but it seems likely. At the moment we have very few specs for the Asus monitor. There is also a wide colour gamut with 95% DCI-P3 listed.

One of the flagship offerings from AUO will be their new M270DAN10.0 panel. This is 27″ in size and combines a 2560 x 1440 resolution with a 360Hz refresh rate! It feels like we’ve only recently started to see 1440p 240Hz screens released, including for instance the Nixeus NX-EDG27240X that we’ve recently reviewed. It will be interesting to see these 360Hz options appear, and they could be sooner that you might think! Panel production is scheduled for July 2022 at the moment for this option.

Continuing the theme of high refresh rate panels, AUO are also planning to produce later on a 32″ sized IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 4K resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate! This could be extremely interesting, although you’re going to need a beast of a system to power something like that. In other specs AUO list a 3ms G2G response time, 400/600 brightness, 95% DCI-P3 colour gamut and a 3-side borderless design.

AUO are developing a range of panels with their new “AmLED” backlight technology, an update to the FALD and Mini LED backlight units you might find today on some higher end displays. There is a focus on improving the number of dimming zones which should in turn help improve HDR experience, with talk about increasing to 2000+ and even 4000+ zones.

AUO explain in some previous press material that: “AUO’s AmLED display technology, thanks to the enhanced mini LED backlight design, has achieved revolutionary performance in gaming displays. With adaptive local dimming technique, brightness, contrast ratio, colors, refresh rate and power consumption can be precisely adjusted in real time based on the images, environment, as well as users’ needs, therefore providing lifelike gaming visuals and immersive experience to meet gamers’ and content creators’ stringent demand for image quality and smooth operations.”

You can see they are promoting the high peak brightness (1400 – 2000 nits being mentioned), longer life expectancy at higher brightness levels and potential for higher frame rates (at the moment at least) in this above graphic. Keep in mind this is AUO’s marketing view of the world.

AmLED basically boils down the screen having a Mini LED backlight that has been finely tuned by AUO to allow it to work properly in gaming situations and with variable refresh rates. Optimising the backlight dimming and control to ensure, as they put it “utmost brightness and contrast”. It’s been apparently made for content creators and e-sports pros, which feels like two pretty separate target markets.

AU Optronics later added a video explaining AmLED in more detail which we’ve embedded below. Within this video AUO are also keen to promote the performance of the Mini LED backlight in various areas, although of course keep in mind this is their marketing video.

They talk about how under higher ambient lighting conditions the technology can deliver 3x higher “ambient contrast ratio” (ACR) than an OLED display which don’t perform as well in bright room conditions. AUO are also promoting the fact that AmLED displays don’t show the same brightness degradation and burn in risks of OLED in their promotional video. They have also focused on blue light reduction by shifting the blue light wavelength to the 460 nm range, something that Eyesafe promote and talk about on their website.

32″ 4K panel with 2304 zones (60Hz only) – a lower refresh rate option is planned but with a significantly higher number of dimming zones. The M320QAN02.A has 2304 dimming zones and will offer a 12ms response time, 99% Adobe RGB gamut (QD) and HDR 1400 support. It’s scheduled for October 2022 production at the moment. This was originally listed in our last July 2021 roadmap as featuring a 160Hz refresh rate and lower HDR 1000 level for an August 2021 development, but it looks like the spec has been updated while production has been delayed (now 60Hz but with HDR 1400).

There are also a quite a few other high refresh rate Curved VA panels of note. The focus from AUO here seems to be with a range of curvature options, including a steep 1000R to match recent Samsung VA panel developments. New planned 240Hz VA panels look particularly interesting, if response times are sufficient to keep up. Samsung have done a great job enhancing their response times on recently tested 240Hz VA panels from their range, finally clearing up the dreaded black smearing and making panels that can actually keep up with the frame rate (e.g. Samsung Odyssey G7screens). Let’s hope AUO can do the same with their new 240Hz options.

The 34″ size is not one that AUO has previously invested in, having concentrated their efforts in the 35″ space, and leaving 34″ to Samsung (VA) and LG.Display (IPS) until now. AUO now have several new panels in production which are 34″ in size, offering a 21:9 ultrawide aspect ratio and a 3440 x 1440 resolution. There are 3 panel variants listed:

Also discussed in the latest AUO roadmap are some new “commercial” products which seem to be IPS-type panels (AHVA technology) with an increased and improved contrast ratio of 2000:1. This could be a rival to LG.Display’s “IPS Black” perhaps, although not much information is provided at this stage on the technology behind the improved contrast ratio. There are two 27″ sized panels listed:

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.

There are many LCD screen manufacturers for the Laptop Industry. LCD screens have different resolutions, size and type and these screens are compatible as long as the resolution and connections are the same.
