1. OUTLINE
1.1 STRUCTURE AND PRINCIPLE
Monochrome LCD module NL256204AM15-01 and NL256204AM15-01A are 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 monochrome-filter glass substrate.
Grayscale data signals from a host system (e.g. PC, 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. Monochrome images are created by regulating the
amount of transmitted light through the TFT array.

Note1: In case of the variable resistor control method and the voltage control method, noises may
appear on the display image depending on the input signals timing for LCD panel signal
processing board.
Use PWM method, if interference noises appear on the display image!
Note2: The inverter will stop working, when BRTP signal is fixed to Low while BRTC signal is High
or Open. Then the backlight will not turn on anymore, even if BRTP signal is input again. This
is not out of order. Backlight inverter will start to work when power is supplied again.
Note3: These data are the target values.
Note4: See "4.6.2 Detail of PWM timing".

This product can display 256 gray scales in each LCR sub-pixel and 766 gray scales per 1 pixel. Also the
relation between display gray scale and input data signals is as the following table.
0 0 0 No correction (Initial setting)
0 0 1 Correction according to the LUT Data. Note1
Dummy Data
Must be set to "0".
>MSB@
GMA Data
>LSB@
>2:0@
-
See Table7.
*Another combinations are prohibited, and may cause function error.
Note1: Initial setting of the LUT is undefined data. The LUT should be enabled by setting of the GMA after
writing the LUT data in all the 256 addresses, in order to avoid undefined data display.
Note2: Transfer the data every power-on, because the LUT data isn't stored in the LCD module.
Note3: When writing and reading the LUT data, a noise may appear on the display image. In order to
prevent the noise appearing on the display, following measures should be performed.
(1)The LUT data should be rewritten during invalid period of pixel data (See "4.8 INPUT
SIGNAL TIMINGS".).
(2)The LUT data should be rewritten while the LUT data is invalid.

NL256204AM15-01/01A
6.2 CAUTIONS
Do not touch the working backlight. Customer will be in danger of an electric shock.
Do not touch the working backlight. Customer will be in danger of burn injury.
Do not shock and press the LCD panel and the backlight! There is a danger of breaking,
because they are made of glass. (Shock: To be not greater 294m/s
11ms, Pressure: To be not greater 19.6N)
6.3 ATTENTIONS
6.3.1 Handling of the product
Take hold of both ends without touch the circuit board when customer pulls out products (LCD
modules) from inner packing box. If customer touches it, products may be broken down or out of
adjustment, because of stress to mounting parts.
ཱ Do not hook nor pull cables such as lamp cable, and so on, in order to avoid damage.
ི If customer puts down the product temporarily, the product puts on flat subsoil as a display side turns
down.
ཱི Take the measures of electrostatic discharge with such as earth band, ionic shower and so on, because
products may be damaged by electrostatic when customer handles the product.
ུ The torque for product mounting screws must never exceed 0.45 Nm. Higher torque values might
result in distortion of the bezel.

ཱུ The product must be installed using mounting holes without undue stress such as bends or twist (See
outline drawings). And do not add undue stress to any portion (such as bezel flat area) except
mounting hole portion.
Bends or twist described above and undue stress to any portion except mounting hole portion may
cause display un-uniformity.
Recommendation installing method: An ideal plane that is defined by datum point and mounting holes
is to be flush within r0.3 mm.
Product
ྲྀ Do not press or rub on the sensitive display surface. If customer clean on the panel surface, NEC
recommends using the cloth with ethanolic liquid such as screen cleaner for LCD.
ཷ Do not push nor pull the interface connectors while the product is working.
ླྀ When not connecting FG of the LCD module to the customer's equipment ground, inverter noise may
create a beat frequency that will cause video noise on the LCD screen.
ཹ When customer handles the product, use of an original protection sheet on the product surface
(polarizer) is recommended for protection of product surface. Adhesive type protection sheet may
change color or properties of the polarizer.

6.3.2 Environment
Do not operate or store in high temperature, high humidity, dewdrop atmosphere or corrosive gases.
Keep the product in packing box and antistatic pouch in room temperature to avoid for dusts and
sunlight, when customer stores the product.
ཱ In order to prevent dew condensation occurring by temperature difference, the product packing box
should be opened after being left under the environment of an unpacking room enough. Because a
situation of dew condensation occurring is changed by the environmental temperature and humidity.
Evaluate the leaving time sufficiently. (Recommendation leaving time: 6 hour or more with packing
state)
ི Do not operate in high magnetic field. Circuit boards may be broken down by it.
ཱི This product is not designed as radiation hardened.

6.3.3 Characteristics
The following items are neither defects nor failures.
Response time, luminance and color may be changed by ambient temperature.
ཱ The LCD may be seemed luminance non-uniformity, flicker, vertical seam or small spot by display
patterns.
ི Optical characteristics (e.g. luminance, display uniformity, etc.) gradually is going to change
depending on operating time, and especially low temperature, because the LCD has cold cathode
fluorescent lamps.
ཱི Do not display the fixed pattern for a long time because it may cause image sticking. Use a screen
saver, if the fixed pattern is displayed on the screen.
ུ The display color may be changed by viewing angle because of the use of condenser sheet in the
backlight.
ཱུ Optical characteristics may be changed by input signal timings.
ྲྀ The interference noise of input signal frequency for this product's signal processing board and
luminance control frequency of inverter may appear on a display. Set up luminance control frequency
of inverter so that the interference noise does not appear.

NL256204AM15-01/01A
6.3.4 Other
All VCC and GND terminals should be used without any non-connected lines.
ཱ Do not disassemble a product or adjust variable resistors without permission of NEC.
ི See "REPLACEMENT MANUAL FOR BACKLIGHT UNIT", if customer would like to replace
backlight lamps.
ཱི Pay attention not to insert waste materials inside of products, if customer uses screwnails.
ུ Pack the product with original shipping package, in order to avoid any damages during transportation,
when customer returns it to NEC for repair and so on.
ཱུ The LCD module by itself or integrated into end product should be packed and transported with
display in the vertically position. Otherwise the display characteristics may be impaired.
