2. OVERVIEW
AA121SA01 is 12.1” color TFT-LCD (Thin Film Tr
composed of LCD panel, driver ICs, control circuit, LED driver and backlight unit.
By applying 6 bit or 8 bit digital data, 800u 600, 262k-color or 16.7M-color images are displayed on
the 12.1” diagonal screen. Input power voltage is 3.3V for LCD driving.
The type of data and control signals are digital and transmitted via LVDS interface per Typ. 40
MHz clock cycle.
General specifications are summarized in the following table:
