Taiwan makers step up miniLED-backlit automotive displays development

Taiwan-primarily based LED companies Everlight Electronics and Lextar Electronics, and Lcd panel makers Innolux and AU Optronics (AUO) are stepping up attempts establishing miniLED-backlit Liquid crystal display automotive displays for dashboards, central details displays and infotainment devices, with such apps most likely to start off delivery in 2022, according to industry resources.

Generation charge for miniLED-backlit Liquid crystal display automotive shows is better than that for LED-backlit types, but they provide far better distinction, shade saturation, resolution, electricity discounts, and area dimming-enabled HDR, the resources stated.

Innolux showcased 11.6-inch and 9-inch miniLED-backlit vehicle-use shows and contact panels, respectively, at on the internet CES 2021.

Everlight is envisioned to start out production of miniLED-backlit automotive displays for shipments to US and European automakers as early as calendar year-stop 2021, the resources included.

POB (bundle on board) procedure is now used to generate miniLED-backlit automotive displays embedded in vehicle bodies, mainly because the packaging technological know-how is mature with stable produce fees and shorter time for certification, the resources indicated.

COB (chip on board) miniLED-backlit automotive shows with lesser proportions and pitches than POB ones, and microLED ones are getting licensed, the sources mentioned.
