Philips BDL3215E 用户手册

User Manual BDL3215E / BDL4225E

Philips strives to deliver the highest quality products. We use some of the industry’s most advanced manufacturing processes and practice 
stringent quality control. However, pixel or sub-pixel defects on the PDP / TFT panels used in Plasma- & LCD- displays are sometimes 
unavoidable. No manufacturer can guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects, but Philips guarantees that any Plasma- & LCD- 
displays with an unacceptable number of defects will be repaired during the warranty period in line with your local guarantee conditions. 
This notice explains the different types of pixel defects and defines the acceptable defect level for the BDL3215E/BDL4225E LCD screen. In 
order to qualify for repair under warranty, the number of pixel defects must exceed a certain level which is given in the reference table. If 
the LCD screen is within specification a warranty exchange / claim back will be refused. Additionally, because some types or combinations of 
pixel defects are more noticeable than others, Philips sets even higher quality standards for those.

Pixels and Sub-pixels 

A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub-pixels in the primary colors of red, green and blue. Many pixels together form an 
image. When all sub-pixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored sub-pixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the 
three colored sub-pixels together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark sub-pixels appear as single pixels of other 
colors.

Types of Pixel Defects + Dot definition 

Pixel and sub-pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are three categories of pixel defects and several types of sub-pixel 
defects within each category. 

One or more defective, adjacent sub-pixel are defined as one “dot”. The no. of defective sub-pixels are not relevant to define a defective 
dot. This means that a defective dot can consist of one, two or three defective sub-pixels which can be dark or lit.

Bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub-pixels that are always lit or “on”. These are the examples of bright dot defects:
