Specifications
Performance characteristics are guaranteed when measured at 25 °C with rated input voltage
unless otherwise specified.
3.1
Control basics
The TFEL panel is a matrix structure with column and row electrodes arranged in an X-Y
formation. Light is emitted when an AC voltage of sufficient amplitude is applied at a row-
column intersection. The display operation is based on the symmetric, line(row)-at-a-time
data addressing scheme.
The display has no grayscale capability, but does have a dimming (overall brightness control)
capability.
3.2
Power
The power consumption of the display (and display electronics) will depend on the overall
brightness target. Estimated typical power consumption of the display device is 20 W.
The supply voltages are shown in Table 1. All internal high voltages are generated from the
display supply voltage (V
H
). The minimum and maximum specifications in this manual should
be met, without exception, to ensure the long-term reliability of the display. Beneq does not
recommend operation of the display outside these specifications.
Any combination or sequencing in the application or removal of V
L
, V
H
, or video signals will
not result in abnormal display operation or display catastrophic failure.
