(Continuous Grain-Silicon Thin Film Transistor). It is composed of a color TFT-LCD panel, driver ICs
(with control Function), an FPC(with DC-DC Converter), a back light, a touch panel and a back sealed casing.
It is composed control circuit. Graphics and texts can be displayed on a 480×3×640 dots panel with
262,144 colors by supplying.
This LCD module has multi resolution and multi colors functions. A resolution mode is selective in
VGA (480H×640V) or QVGA (240H×320V). A Color mode is selective in 262,144 colors (18bit RGB) or
8 colors (3bit RGB).
It is a wide viewing-angle-mode (Vertical viewing angle:(±80°) Horizontal viewing angle: (±80°) ,CR≧5).

(1) After VCC is ON ,please make sure to start HVIF(CLK,HSYNC,VSYNC,RGB data signal) synchronized
signal before INI(Power on control) becomes High.
(2) Please keep HVIF(CLK,HSYNC,VSYNC,RGB data signal) synchronized signal High for more than 5
vertical period after INI becomes Low to shut down VCC.
(3) Stabilize VCC(＋3.3V) within double vertical periods.
(4) VCC is stabilized to GND within double vertical periods.
(5) When the power supply is on again after Power Supply Off sequence ,please put the RESB signal before
Power Supply On sequence. RESB signal needs LOW level more than 20μsec after VCC(+3.3V) ON.
(6) Please Set RESB signal before INI Signal.

(13)Design guidance for touchpanel(T/P)
(1) If an consumer will put a palm on housing in normal usage, care should be taken as follows.
(2) Keep the gap, for example 0.3 to 0.7mm,between bezel edge and T/P surface.
The reason is to avoid the bezel edge from contacting T/P surface that may cause a “short”
with bottom layer(See Fig.2)
(3) Insertion a cushion material is recommended.
(4) The cushion material should be limited just on the busbar insulation paste area.
If it is over the transparent insulation paste area, a ”short” may be occurred.
(5) There is one where a resistance film is left in the T/P part of the end of the pole.
Design to keep insulation from the perimeter to prevent from mis-operation and so on.

(14)Handling Precautions
14-1) Insertion and taking out of FPCs
(1) Be sure insert and take out of the FPC into the connector of the set after turning off the power supply
on the set side.
14-2) Handling of FPCs
(1) The FPC for LCD panel shall be bent only slit portion. The bending slit shall be bent uniformly
on the whole slit portion with bending radius larger than 1.0mm ,and only inner side (back side of the
module). Don’t bend it outer side (display surface side).
(2) Don’t give the FPCs too large force, for example, hanging the module with holding FPC. Moreover,
Do not put stress on the components mounted on FPC to avoid failure of the components.
14-3) Installation of the module
(1) On mounting the module, be sure to fix the module on the same plane. Taking care not to warp or twist
the module.
14-4)Precaution when mounting
(1) If water droplets and oil attaches to it for a long time, discoloration and staining occurs. Wipe them off
immediately.
(2) Glass is used for the TFT-LCD panel or touch panel. If it is dropped or bumped against a hard object, it
may be broken. Handle it with sufficient care.
(3) As the CMOS IC is used in this module, pay attention to static electricity when handling it. Take a
measure for grounding on the human body.
14-5)Others
(1) The liquid-crystal is deteriorated by ultraviolet rays. Do not leave it in direct sunlight and
strong ultraviolet rays for many hours.
(2) If it is kept at a temperature below the rated storage temperature, it becomes coagulated and
the panel may be broken. Also, if it is kept at a temperature above the rated storage temperature,
it becomes isotropic liquid and does not return to its original state. Therefore, it is desirable to keep it
at room temperature as much as possible.
(3) If the LCD breaks, don’t put internal liquid crystal into the mouth. When the liquid crystal sticks to the
hands, feet and clothes, wash it out immediately.
(4) Wipe off water drop or finger grease immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration or
spots.
(5) Observe general precautions for all electronic components.
(6) Static image should not be displayed more than 5 minutes in order to prevent from occurrence of
residual image.
