NEC LCD Technologies has introduced four new amorphous-silicon thin-film-transistor liquid crystal display modules incorporating a newly designed LED light source unit into the backlight system. These units offer long operating life: 70,000 hours at room temperature (25 degrees Celsius) and 60,000 hours at high temperature (70 degrees Celsius).

NEC LCD Technologies has introduced two new 5.7-inch (15 centimeters diagonal) amorphous-silicon thin-film-transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) modules with video graphics array (VGA) resolution. These new modules are the latest additions to NEC LCD Technologies’ lineup of LCD modules featuring white LED backlight systems. The NL6448BC18-01 module is a standard model with brightness of 400 candelas per square meter (cd/m2), and the NL6...

NEC Electronics has introduced what it says is the world’s first microcontroller (MCU) with a constant high-current driver (HCD). The new HCD/LED MCU can be used in lighting applications that use more than one LED, in industrial control applications featuring stepping motor and solenoid drives, and in switching-mode power supplies. Developed in collaboration with leading LED solutions supplier Future Lighting Solutions (a division of Future Ele...

NEC Electronics today introduced two new 8-bit All Flash general-purpose microcontrollers (MCUs) that can be used in control applications such as LED (Light Emitting Diode) lighting, home electric cookers and chargers. The new devices combine NEC Electronics’ All Flash 78K0/KB2 microcontrollers with constant high current drivers in a single package. The part numbers differ according to their Flash memory capacity; μPD78F8024 offers 8 kilob...
