Kyocera Introduces New 7-Inch WVGA TFT Liquid-Crystal Display with Wide Viewing Angle for Indoor and Outdoor Use

VANCOUVER, Wash.-- Kyocera Industrial Ceramics Corporation, LCD Division, has introduced a new 7” WVGA wide-viewing-angle TFT-LCD module.

Kyocera's new 7-inch LCD features WVGA (800 x 480 dots) format, long-life LED backlighting with low power consumption, up to 70,000 hours of operating time, and wide viewing technology (+/-85 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angle) to eliminate color inversion and address the performance needs of industrial-use applications.

By utilizing the latest technology for LED chips and light guides, Kyocera’s unique LED backlight system ensures lower power consumption; therefore, the LCD module itself generates less heat than conventional models, extending LED backlight life.
