OLED-TV Display/Monitor Technology News

eMagin a leader in OLED technology, will begin taking orders for its SVGA 3DS OLED-XL microdisplay at next week’s Night Vision Conference in Washington, D,C. The company expects to begin shipping the product in the first quarter of 2008.

“There has been growing interest in the SVGA 3DS OLED-XL microdisplay since we demonstrated it to the industry at the SID conference last May,” said Susan Jones, executive vice president and chief marketing officer, eMagin Corporation. “While we’re in the first stages of manufacturing right now, this product offers potential for lower costs that will in turn open up new applications.”

The SVGA-3DS microdisplay offers both analog and digital signal processing in a compact display (0.44-inch) with greater power efficiency. This high-density OLED-on-silicon microdisplay promises an affordable, easy-to-integrate solution for many virtual imaging systems. eMagin’s SVGA-3DS microdisplays eliminate the need for extra circuitry and components while allowing for a smaller display module design with increased functionality, with no increase in power consumption.

Specific improvements include increased pixel uniformity, improved color gamut, on-chip temperature sensor and compensation, and compatibility with both analog RGB and digital video signals. The 800 x 600-pixel array comprises triads of vertical sub-pixels stacked side by side to make up each 11.1 x 11.1-micrometer color pixel. Versatile timing controls accommodate a variety of video formats. On-board circuitry ensures consistent color and brightness over a wide range of operating temperatures.
