On core technology of small pixel pitch

        As household display, TV has been through CRT, plasma, LCD to nowadays mainstream LED. Even though the screen size is getting bigger and bigger, the biggest LCD screen in the world 110 inches, such disadvantages as limited panel brightness and narrow color gamut (only 72% of NTSC) still remain the bottleneck of LED development.

        Being the main force of display equipment in conference room, command center and studio, business DLP rear-projection faces the problem of lacking brightness, color saturation and contract ratio and being restrained by the displaying size. By contrast, the leathal shortcoming of titled LCD screen is the unremovable black lines caused by the bezel between panels even though it’s not troubled by the size problem. Obvious seams can be seen in Fig. 1 and by no means can seamless connection be achieved.

 

       Confronted with so many disadvantages, displaying technology badly calls for a serious revolution. At this very moment, the small pixel pitch LED came into being and take the charge. LED display has been around for 20 years, evolving from monochrome to dual color to full color display. Compared with other displays, low resolution has always been the obstacle impeding the development of indoor LED. With the rapid development of LED technology in recent years, small pixel pitch LED display made its debut after the two main problems of LED lamp and manufacturing technology had been solved, entering the indoor display market in the situation where to solve the disadvantages of traditional displaying equipment. Fig 2 shows the high performance of small pixel pitch.

        Having noticed this blue ocean, many manufacturers enter the small pixel pitch market one after another and wage wars with each other. Who to win this war depends on who masters the core technology and brings high quality products to cater for the customers. Whatsoever, small pixel pitch product is just like a newly born baby needing to grow, and there are four main problems remaining to be solved.

1.  Display performance

  Factors affecting the performance of small pixel pitch products

     Ghost image

    First scan tends to be dark

   Low g ray scale tends to be red and uneven

 

    Gray scale will be lost when brightness declines

 

       The brightness of traditional LCD display ranges from 300 to 500 nit. Given that the light source of LED display is the LED self-luminous component which is very sensitive to human eyes, the brightness of small pixel pitch display has to be between 100 and 300 nit so that it’s lower than that of LCD display and viewers’eyes would not get tired after a long time watching in short distance. Under such low brightness, the gray scale of common displays would decrease from 16 bit to 8 bit or even lower. Performance comparisons are shown in the below table. 

 

 

    Low brightness and low refresh rate

2. Super large load capacity for screen size

    With pixel pitch getting smaller and cabinet resolution higher, the load capacity of ordaniary receiving card can no longer meet the requirement.

3.  Uniformity

   Short indoor viewing distance puts higher demand on the uniformity of color and brightness of small pixel pitch products.

4. After sales maintenance

    Maintenance difficuty accordingly increases as pixel pitch gets smaller and resolution higher, which calls for the improving of product reliablity.

    With regards to the above problems, Luxon has been spending great loads of time and energy on tackling them one by one. By produt upgrading and close cooperation with control system and driving IC manufacturers, Luxon launched such high quality small pixel pitch products as P2.5 and P1.9, not only meeting the basic technical requirements but also sparing no effort in improving product reliability, which is realised through the following aspects:

   (1)  In the procurement of raw materials, Luxon is proficient in encapsulation and has tremendous technology and expertise, which ensures the reliability of LED lamps. Only famous domestic and overseas brands will be selected when using other raw materials.

   (2)  With regard to product design, our products are of low power consumption with low voltage mode, which makes its temperature 10 degrees lower than that of traditional products. According to the report by some authorities, the life span of electronic components will increase by 50% when the temperature decreases by every 10 degrees, which means our product reliability consequently increases by 50%.

   (3) Another innovation about product design is than dual backup is applied to control system, power supply and even the signal of every module, ensuring the stability of products.

    At present small pixel pitch products have created many successful cases of indoor display such as Beijing intermediate court and Chongqing municipal hall.
