CAMAS, Wash. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Today, at the Society for Information Display's (SID's) Display
Week 2009 conference in San Antonio, TX, Sharp Microelectronics of the
Americas (SMA) introduced a new standard in ultra low-power graphic
display technology with its new Memory LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The
LCD combines built-in pixel memory, high reflectance and ultra-thin
mechanicals, opening up new possibilities for mobile display design. A
1.35-inch Monochrome Square model is on display at SID. The product line
will soon include additional sizes, as well as color displays, and
custom shapes (including octagonal and round). The panels are well
suited for applications including mobile phones, watches, remote
controls, and performance tracking electronics.
A unique application of memory in each pixel enables power-saving
extended mobile solutions of 10 µW compared to 1mW STN solutions, and
reduces refresh rate to 1 Hz. SMA's proprietary technology enhancements
also include the breakthrough Polymer Network Liquid Crystal (PNLC), a
reflective display technology that removes polarizers to provide high
contrast and wide viewing angles in outdoor high ambient environments.
Display thickness is optimized at 1.4mm, achieved by an innovative
two-glass design. The panel requires only a single 5V supply, and its
3-wire serial interface also eliminates the need for external chips,
saving time and investment. The display color is that of its mirrored
reflective plate, which could be manufactured in any shade.
"Our goal is to provide Mobile Application developers with innovative
mechanical and power management display options to bring their best
design ideas to life," said Marshall Pinder, Director, Display Products,
at Sharp Microelectronics of the Americas. "We hope our product advances
and continued support of the extended use mobile market will pair with
improvements in mobile power systems and enable continued success for
developers in an increasingly-competitive playing field."
The SMA Extended Use Mobile Display Suite
1.35-inch Square, Monochrome, 96 x 96 resolution (LS013B4DN02)
The new 1.35-inch Monochrome Square LCD is loaded with features that
deliver a display capable of smooth-moving graphics, with 50%
reflectance and a breakthrough 10 µW power consumption. Sharp's Memory
reflective LCDs are visible in a 0.5 lux environment without requiring a
light source, and deliver high visibility in a variety of adverse
conditions. The lightweight, thin display removes many design
limitations for handheld and wrist-top applications.
