1. OUTLINE
1.1 STRUCTURE AND PRINCIPLE
Color LCD module NL8060BC31-20 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.
Color (Red, Green, Blue) 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 of red, green and blue dots.

Note1: This product consists of 2 backlight lamps, and these specifications are for each lamp.
Note2: The power supply voltage cycle between lamps should be kept on a same phase. "VS" and
"VBLH" are the voltage value between low voltage side (Cold) and high voltage side (Hot).
Note3: The asymmetric ratio of working waveform for lamps (Power supply voltage peak ratio,
power supply current peak ratio and waveform space ratio) should be less than 5 % (See the
following figure.). If the waveform is asymmetric, DC (Direct current) element apply into the
lamp. In this case, a lamp lifetime may be shortened, because a distribution of a lamp
enclosure substance inclines toward one side between low voltage terminal (Cold terminal)
and high voltage terminal (Hot terminal). When designing the inverter, evaluate asymmetric of
lamp working waveform sufficiently.

Note4: This product consists of 2 lamps. 2 lamps are contained in the 1 lamp holder, and both lamps
are connected to 1 low voltage cable. Recommended lamp current is 5.0mArms typical for
each lamp, and sum of 2 lamps is 10mArms typical. The lamp current should be measured by
high-frequency current meter at the low voltage terminal.
Note5: The inverter should be designed so that the lamp starting voltage can be maintained for more
than 1 second. Otherwise the lamp may not be turned on.
Note6: In case "FO" is not the recommended value, beat noise may display on the screen, because of
interference between "FO" and "1/th". Recommended value of "FO" is as following.

Note7: Method of lamp cable installation may invite fluctuation of lamp current and voltage or
asymmetric of lamp working waveform. When designing method of lamp cable installation,
evaluate the fluctuation of lamp current, voltage and working waveform sufficiently.
