The small video displays, OLED Micro-displays from Sony Semiconductor Solutions are for the reproduction of images that are well-suited for electronic view finders, and head-mounted devices. These very thin displays exhibit high brightness, operate at low power and are made from a solid Si-wafer substrate.

The Sony ECX334C OLED Micro-display brings a small size, high resolution solution at a light weight and fast response, with doubled candela output compared to previous models. This display is available from FRAMOS.

The ECX334C is a very small, 1cm, diagonally active matrix colour OLED panel module that is based on single crystal silicon transistors; in addition, it provides an XGA resolution of 1024x768px. The OLED module integrates both a panel driver and a logic driver to achieve a small and flexible light weight display solution.

The display has a wide colour gamut and a short response time, in the order of one microsecond. The maximum luminance, with 24-bit colour depth and high resolution, provides up to 1,000cd/m2, and is doubled compared to earlier versions. The EX334XC comes with a power saving mode, and scanning can be selected from all four directions. The units, with both sub-LVDS and 120p-LVDS interfaces, can be integrated into OEM devices.

Sibel Yorulmaz-Cokugur, Line Manager for Sony Semiconductor Solutions at FRAMOS, explained the fields of applications which benefit from the OLED Micro-display: “With its small package, high speed and brightness, the Sony Semiconductor Solutions’ ECX334C display is suitable for many potential applications using micro-sized displays in both industrial and consumer electronics.

"It is especially recommended as an Electronic View Finder in Broadcasting and consumer cameras, or for greater visual impact in 3D head-mounted devices for industrial maintenance applications. The ECX334C display provides natural colour reproduction and superior moving picture quality. In addition, high-precision cameras, binoculars, and monocular devices will benefit.”

FRAMOS offers customer service to help with the integration of these new displays in their applications and projects. In addition, FRAMOS provides services like development support, and logistics that accelerate development and improve time to market for all vision products.
