Pixel Errors with LCD TVs
17
Individual pixels or groups of them can fail in
rare cases, in spite of the most up-to-date
manufacture, because of the highly complex
technology.
Active matrix LCDs (TFT) with a resolution of
1280 x 800 pixel, which are in turn composed
of three sub-pixels each (red, green, blue),
contain about 3.1 million addressable
transistors. Because of this very high number
of transistors and their extremely complex
production process occasionally defective or
incorrectly addressed pixels or sub-pixels may
occur.
