Infovue™ High/Low Temp LCD Series for Extreme
Condition Application Provides up to 50% Technology
Cost Savings and 80% Energy Savings
Custom Lumex LCD displays also
provide enhanced reliability and visual performance
Lumex announces the global launch of their
InfoVue™ High/Low Temp series of custom, high-duty
LCD displays for applications that perform in
extreme heat or extreme cold. InfoVue™ High/Low
Temp LCD displays provide a number of key benefits
including reliable performance in a wider range
of extreme temperatures, enhanced visual display
quality and significant technology cost and
energy savings.
“Previously LCDs that operated in extreme cold
or extreme heat required bulky built-in heaters
and coolers in order to ensure performance,”
explained Yasoob Ahmed, Display Technology Manager,
at Lumex. “The special liquid crystal used in
the InfoVue High/Low Temp series eliminates
the need for coolers and allows us to use low-power
heaters -- allowing our LCDs to perform in more
extreme conditions. Custom InfoVue LCD displays
now provide superior performance and cost savings
compared to alternative off-the-shelf technologies.”
Whereas existing LCD technology performed in
the -20°C to +70°C temperature range, InfoVue
High/Low Temp displays provide reliable, consistent
high-quality performance from -40°C to +85°C
–, making Lumex LCD technology a viable solution
for a growing number of extreme condition applications.
The growing demand for extreme-condition LCD
technology can be seen in military, freezer,
gas pumps/fuel meters, non-automotive transportation,
and non-climate controlled facility applications.
Custom InfoVue High/Low Temp LCD displays can
provide a 50% savings in technology costs and
80% energy savings when compared to alternative
technologies such as vacuum fluorescents.
InfoVue High/Low Temp LCD displays also offer
significant visual performance benefits. Whereas
conventional LCD displays can only provide alphanumeric
displays in a limited number of segments and
colors, InfoVue LCD displays provide full graphic
capability and daylight visibility. When combined
with LED backlighting technology, a wide range
of color options are available. Users can either
opt for a monochromatic screen with any color
of LED backlight, or select negative image option
with mono colored pixels and a black background.
InfoVue High/Low Temp LCD displays can be produced
in sizes ranging from 8 x 1 character displays
to 320 x 240 pixel graphic displays.
Custom production quantities of the InfoVue
High/Low Temp technology are available in 12
weeks. Pricing is dependent on quantity ordered,
and is approximately $1 to $80 per unit in production
quantities dependent on size and quantity ordered.
