14. Precaution for using LCM

1. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

LCD is made up of glass, organic sealant, organic fluid and

polymer based polarizers. The following precautions should be

taken when handling.

a) Keep the temperature within the range of use and

storage. Excessive temperature and humidity could

cause polarization degredation, polarizer peel off or

bubble.

b) Do not contact the exposed polarizer with anything

harder than HB pencil lead. To clean dust off the

display surface, wipe gently with cotton, chamois or

other soft material soaked in petroleum benzin.

c) Wipe off saliva or water drops immediately. Contact

with water over a long period of time may cause

polarizer deformation or colour fading, while an

active LCD with water condensation on its surface

will cause corrosion of ITO electrodes.

d) Glass can be easily chipped or cracked from rough

handling, especially at corners and edges.

e) Do not drive LCD with DC voltage.

2. Liquid Crystal Display Modules.

2.1 Mechanical Considerations

LCM are assembled and adjusted with a high degree

of precision. Avoid excessive shocks and do not

make any alterations or modification. The following

should be noted.

a) Do not tamper in any way with the tabs on

the metal frame.

b) Do not modify the PCB by drilling extra

holes, changing its outline, moving its

component or modifying its pattern.

c) Do not touch the elastomer connector,

especially insert a backlight panel (for

example, EL)

d) When mounting a LCM make sure that the

PCB is not under any stress such as

bending or twisting. Elastomer contacts are

very delicate and missing pixels could

result from slight dislocation of any of the

elements.

e) Avoid pressing on the metal bezel,

otherwise the elastomer connector

could be deformed and lose contact,

resulting in missing pixels.

2.2 Static Electricity

LCM contains CMOS LSI’s and the same

precaution for such devices should apply, namely

a) The operator should be grounded whenever

he/she comes into contact with the module.

Never touch any of the conductive parts

such as the LSI pads, the copper leads on the

PCB and the interface terminals with any

parts of the human body.

b) The modules should be kept in antistatic

bags or other containers to static for storage.

c) Only properly grounded soldering irons

should be used.

d) If an electric screwdriver is used, it should

be well grounded and shielded from

commutator spark.

e) The normal static prevention measures

should be observed for work clothes and

working benches, the latter conductive

(rubber) mat is recommended.

f) Since dry air is inductive to statics, a relative

humidity of 50-60% is recommended.

2.3 Soldering

a) Solder only to the I/O terminals.

b) Use only soldering irons with proper

grounding and no leakage.

c) Soldering temperature: 280 °C

d) Soldering time: 3 to 4 sec

e) Use eutectic solder with resin flux fill.

f) If flux is used, the LCD surface should be

covered to avoid flux spatters. Flux residue

should be removed afterwards.

2.4 Operation

a) The contras can be adjusted by varying the

LCD driving voltage V0

b) Driving voltage should be kept within

specified range, excess voltage shortens

display life.

c) Response time increases with decrease in

temperature.

d) Display may turn black or dark blue at

temperature above its operational range, this

is (however not pressing on the viewing

area) may cause the segments to appear

“fractured”.

e) Mechanical disturbance during operation (

such as pressing on the viewing area) may

cause the segments to appear “fractured”.

2.5 Storage

If any fluid leaks out of the damage glass cell,

wash off any human part that comes into contact

with soap and water. Never swallow the fluid.

The toxicity is extremely low but caution should

be exercised at all the time.

2.6 Limited Warranty

Unless otherwise agreed between Crystal Clear

Technology and customer, Crystal Clear

Technology will replace or repair any of its LCD

and LCM which is found to be defective

electrically and visually when inspected in

accordance with Crystal Clear Technology

acceptance standards, for a period of one year

from date of shipment. Confirmation of such date

shall be based on freight documents. The

warranty liability of Crystal Clear Technology is

limited to repair and/or replacement on the terms

set forth above. Crystal Clear Technology will

not responsible for any subsequent or

consequential events.
