KYOCERA Introduces 6.2" LCD Display in 16:6 Format for Industrial and Medical Applications

Features Advanced Wide Viewing Technology for best optical performance

March 6, 2017 – Plymouth, MI – Kyocera, a world-leading electronic device manufacturer, today introduced a 6.2” LCD display with Advanced Wide View Technology for industrial and medical applications.

This 16:6 wide format TFT LCD screen allows designers the opportunity to maintain a compact design while displaying highly detailed content. Powered with Kyocera’s Advanced Wide View II Technology, it can be mounted either horizontally or vertically and still provide a wide viewing angles and high contrast ratio.

The new 6.2” TFT-LCD (part number:TCG062HVLQAVNN-GN20) features 640 x 240 resolution, with outline dimensions of 173mm x 70mm x 6.7mm, and an active display area of 147.84mm x 55.44mm. It provides brightness of 500 cd/m² with a contrast ratio of 500:1 and viewing angles of 160 degrees vertically and horizontally. It also features a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) interface, an operating temperature range of -20 to +70⁰C, and a storage temperature range of -30 to +80⁰C.

The built-in LED driver circuit incorporates a pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming control for a broad LED backlight dimming range of 0.1% to 100%. Having the LED driver circuit built-in also helps to simplify the design process and reduce external component requirements. Kyocera’s built-in LED driver ensures a more cost-effective solution.

“We are pleased to offer this wide-aspect-ratio, high-performance industrial and medical display product,” said Cynthia Ferrell, Senior Divisional Vice President of Kyocera International, Inc.’s Display Division. “This display will be a perfect fit for a wide range of existing instrumentation.”
