4.3 Panel Specification
4.3.1 General Features
LM230WF5-TLF1 is a Color Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display Light Emitting Diode ( White LED) backlight system
without LED driver. The matrix employs a-Si Thin Film Transistor as the active element. It is a transmissive type
display operating in the normally white mode. It has a 23 inch diagonally measured active display area with FHD
resolution (1080 vertical by 1920 horizontal pixel array) Each pixel is divided into Red, Green and Blue sub-pixels or
dots which are arranged in vertical stripes. Gray scale or the brightness of the sub-pixel color is determined with a
8-bit gray scale signal for each dot, thus, presenting a palette of more than 16,7M colors with Advanced-FRC(Frame
Rate Control). It has been designed to apply the interface method that enables low power, high speed, low EMI. FPD
Link or compatible must be used as a LVDS(Low Voltage Differential Signaling) chip. It is intended to support
applications where thin thickness, wide viewing angle, low power are critical factors and graphic displays are
important. In combination with the vertical arrangement of the sub-pixels, the LM230WF5-TLF1 characteristics
provide an excellent flat panel display for office automation products such as monitors.
