1. OUTLINE
1.1 STRUCTURE AND PRINCIPLE
Color LCD module NL160120AC27-32 is composed of the amorphous silicon thin film transistor
liquid crystal display (a-Si TFT LCD) panel structure with driver LSIs for driving the TFT (Thin Film
Transistor) array and a backlight.
The a-Si TFT LCD panel structure is injected liquid crystal material into a narrow gap between the TFT
array glass substrate and a Color-filter glass substrate.
Grayscale data signals from a host system (e.g. signal generator, etc.) are modulated into best form for
active matrix system by a signal processing board, and sent to the driver LSIs which drive the individual
TFT arrays.
The TFT array as an electro-optical switch regulates the amount of transmitted light from the backlight
assembly, when it is controlled by data signals. Color images are created by regulating the amount of
transmitted light through the TFT array.

Note2: The power supply lines (VDDB and GNDB) have large ripple voltage during luminance
control. See "4.3.4 Power supply voltage ripple ".
There is the possibility that the ripple voltage produces acoustic noise and signal wave noise in
audio circuit and so on. Put a capacitor (5,000 to 6,000PF) between the power supply lines
(VDDB and GNDB) to reduce the noise, if the noise occurred in the circuit.
