LC640.480.33-AC Display
The LC640.480.33-AC is a 1000 nit 10.4" diagonal VGA color AMLCD flat panel
display module intended for commercial applications requiring outdoor viewability and
long life.  Special attention to the total backlight design gives the display a wide, “single-
BEF” viewing angle while maintaining luminance efficiency greater than 45 nit/W.
The display is convection cooled and does not require a fan, yet features a wide
operating temperature range. It is lightweight, compact, and rugged, and includes an
integrated inverter in a package approximately one inch thick. With fast cell response
and an 18-bit (6 bits per color) video interface, this display can show full motion video
images.
The LC640.480.33-AC is designed, tested, and characterized as an integrated system
made up of two subassemblies. The LCD subassembly includes a sealed optical cavity,
and the backlight/inverter subassembly includes a cold cathode fluorescent (CCFL)
backlight and inverter. Due to the sealed optical cavity, the backlight subassembly may
be replaced without exposing the back of the LCD cell and optical films to airborne
contaminants.
