New 5.7” Color TFT-LCD Module with built-in LED Driver for Industrial Use

The new 5.7” TFT-LCD module is built in a new slim design with a lightweight construction. The improved backlight structure reduces the thickness of the module to 8.8mm and its weight to 165g. In addition, the new module contains a built-in LED driver to achieve a more compact system design and a better cost effectiveness in customer's applications while the outline dimensions, mounting position and pin assignments remain compatible to previous modules.

The TFT-LCD modules with market leading long-life LED backlight performance can be operated without an inverter, unlike other models which used Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp (CCFL) backlights. At 25 degrees Celsius, LED backlights have an operating life time of at least 100,000 hours. The TFT-LCD modules offer a brightness of 450cd/m2, making them suitable for operation in very bright illuminated environments. The total power consumption including the backlight is reduced to 1.83W.

The AA057QD01 achieves a top level wide operating temperature range from -30 degrees to +80 degrees Celsius. Therefore, this model can be implemented in applications in harsh outdoor environments.

Mitsubishi Electric was one of the first companies to incorporate LED backlights in its TFT-LCD modules. With the addition of the new LED backlight model, Mitsubishi Electric's TFT-LCD module lineup now includes more than 80 different modules covering 18 combinations of screen size and resolution types. Out of these 18 combinations are available with LED backlights. Mitsubishi Electric aims to further expand its lineup of industrial-use TFT-LCD modules in future.

The new TFT-LCD module is RoHS conform.
