Concept
In line with today’s trends of ubiquitous and digital convergence, the market demands brighter and slimmer LCD screens. In response, the HYDIS research center is striving to develop high-end technologies that offer high resolution and brightness simultaneously. One of the breakthrough technologies the researchers are currently working on involves the application of ARD and RGBW, the optimal a-Si based technologies, to mobile products.
ARD technology integrates the conventional Gate Driver IC function in the TFT Array substrate by utilizing a-Si TFT, resulting in improved cost competitiveness and a much slimmer product. In the RGBW PenTile technology, white is added on top of red, green and blue, and Sub-Pixel Rendering technology is used so that only 2/3 of the column line of the conventional RGB Stripe structure is used while brightness is doubled.


Major Benefits:
High brightness & high contrast ratio
A more compact & slimmer product
Significant cost reduction


Technology Applications
High-end mobile products including DMB, PMP and UMPC
