1) Since front polarizer is easily damaged, pay attention not to scratch it.
2) Be sure to turn off power supply when inserting or disconnecting from input
connector.
3) Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause
discoloration or spots.
4) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or other soft
cloth.
5) Since the panel is made of glass, it may break or crack if dropped or bumped
on hard surface.
6) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and insure
human earth when handling.
7) Do not open nor modify the Module Assembly.
AU OPTRONICS CORPORATION
8) Do not press the reflector sheet at the back of the module to any directions.
9) In case if a Module has to be put back into the packing container slot after
once it was taken out from the container, do not press the center of the CCFL
Reflector edge. Instead, press at the far ends of the CCFL Reflector edge softly.
Otherwise the TFT Module may be damaged.
10) At the insertion or removal of the Signal Interface Connector, be sure not to
www.jxlcd.com
rotate nor tilt the Interface Connector of the TFT Module.
11) After installation of the TFT Module into an enclosure (Notebook PC Bezel, for
example), do not twist nor bend the TFT Module even momentary. At designing
the enclosure, it should be taken into consideration that no bending/twisting
forces are applied to the TFT Module from outside. Otherwise the TFT Module
may be damaged.
12) Cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) in LCD contains a small amount of mercury.
Please follow local ordinances or regulations for disposal.
13) Small amount of materials having no flammability grade is used in the LCD module.
The LCD module should be supplied by power complied with requirements of Limited
www.jxlcd.com
Power Source (IEC60950 or UL1950), or be applied exemption.
14) The LCD module is designed so that the CCFL in it is supplied by Limited Current
Circuit (IEC60950 or UL1950). Do not connect the CCFL in Hazardous Voltage Circuit.

change during measuring. In order to stabilize the luminance, the measurement should be executed after
lighting Backlight for 30 minutes in a stable, windless and dark room, and it should be measured in the
center of screen.

Note 9. Definition of viewing angle
Viewing angle is the measurement of contrast ratio ≧10, at the screen center, over a 180°
horizontal and 180° vertical range (off-normal viewing angles). The 180° viewing angle range is broken
down as follows; 90° (θ) horizontal left and right and 90° (Φ) vertical, high (up) and low (down). The
measurement direction is typically perpendicular to the display surface with the screen rotated about
its center to develop the desired measurement viewing angle.

1-1 All of characteristics listed are measured under the condition using the AUO Test inverter.
1-2 In case of using an inverter other than listed, it is recommended to check the inverter
carefully. Sometimes, interfering noise stripes appear on the screen, and substandard
luminance or flicker at low power may happen.
1-3 In designing an inverter, it is suggested to check safety circuit very carefully. Impedance of
CCFL, for instance, becomes more than 1 [M ohm] when CCFL is damaged.
1-4 Generally, CCFL has some amount of delay time after applying starting voltage. It is
recommended to keep on applying starting voltage for 1 [Sec] until discharge.
1-5 CCFL discharge frequency must be carefully chosen so as not to produce interfering noise
stripes on the screen.
1-6 Reducing CCFL current increases CCFL discharge voltage and generally increases CCFL
discharge frequency. So all the parameters of an inverter should be carefully designed so as
not to produce too much leakage current from high-voltage output of the inverter.
B156XW01 V1 Document Version : 1.0

Product Specification
Note 1: It should be employed the inverter which has “Duty Dimming”, if ICCFL is less than 4mA.
Note 2: CCFL discharge frequency should be carefully determined to avoid interference between
inverter and TFT LCD.
Note 3: The frequency range will not affect to lamp life and reliability characteristics.
Note 4: The output voltage of inverter should be able to give out a power after ballast capacitor , the
generating capacity has to be larger than a lamp startup voltage, otherwise backlight may has
blinking for a moment after turns on or can not be turned on.
AU OPTRONICS CORPORATION
Note 5: Calculator value for reference (I
Note 6: Requirements for a system inverter design, which is intended to have a better display
performance, a better power efficiency and a more reliable lamp, are following.
It shall help increase the lamp lifetime and reduce leakage current.
a. The asymmetry rate of the inverter waveform should be less than 10%.
b. The distortion rate of the waveform should be within √2 ±10%.
* Inverter output waveform had better be more similar to ideal sine wave.
