LP121WX3
Liquid Crystal Display
Product Specification
1. General Description
The LP121WX3 is a Color Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display with an integral White LED backlight system.
The matrix employs a-Si Thin Film Transistor as the active element. It is a transmissive type display
operating in the normally white mode. This TFT-LCD has 12.1 inches diagonally measured active display
area with WXGA resolution(800 vertical by 1280 horizontal pixel array). Each pixel is divided into Red,
Green and Blue sub-pixels or dots which are arranged in vertical stripes. Gray scale or the brightness of the
sub-pixel color is determined with a 6-bit gray scale signal for each dot, thus, presenting a palette of more
than 262,144 colors.
The LP121WX3 has been designed to apply the interface method that enables low power, high speed, low
EMI.
The LP121WX3 is intended to support applications where thin thickness, low power are critical factors and
graphic displays are important. In combination with the vertical arrangement of the sub-pixels, the
LP121WX3 characteristics provide an excellent flat display for office automation products such as Notebook
PC.

Note : 1. Temperature and relative humidity range are shown in the figure below.
Wet bulb temperature should be 39C Max, and no condensation of water.
The LP121WX3 requires two power inputs. The first logic is employed to power the LCD electronics and to
drive the TFT array and liquid crystal. The second backlight is the input about LED BL.with LED Driver.

3. The specified LED current and power consumption are under the Vled = 12.0V , 25℃, Dimming of Max
luminance whereas White pattern is displayed and fv is the frame frequency.
4. The life time is determined as the time at which brightness of LCD is 50% compare to that of initial value
at the typical LED current. These LED backlight has 6 strings on it and the typical current of LED‟s string
is base on 20mA
5. This Spec. is not effective at 100% dimming ratio as an exception because it has DC level equivalent
to 0Hz. In spite of acceptable range as defined, the PWM Frequency should be fixed and stable for
more consistent brightness control at any specific level desired.
6. The operation of LED Driver below minimum dimming ratio may cause flickering or reliability issue.
