Product Profile
The EL640.480-AA1 display is a VGA compatible high-resolution
electroluminescent (TFEL) display. It delivers eight different hues of red, green
and yellow with excellent image clarity. The EL640.480-AA1 is designed to
function in extreme environments and is totally service free. Its image contrast
and colours remain constant over a wide viewing angle and without the need
for an additional polarizing filter under most lighting conditions.
The EL640.480-AA1 features a 640 (x 2) column by 480 row matrix with each
pixel composed of a red and green subpixel. Each subpixel has three intensity
levels. The digital flat panel interface is designed to match the needs of most
systems.
For operation the EL640.480-AA1 display requires +5 Vdc and +12 Vdc (Vcc1,
Vcc2) power and seven basic input signals:
1. Four bit serial Video Data (D0…D3)
2. Video Clock, pixel clock, or dot clock (VCLK)
3. Horizontal Sync (HS) or Blanking (_BLANK)
4. Vertical Sync (VS)
EL Technology
The display consists of an electroluminescent glass panel, a mounted circuit
board with driving electronics and an integrated DC/DC converter.
Figure 1. EL Technology.
The multicolour EL display panel is based on a new innovative structure, in
which red, green and yellow colours are obtained using a patterned colour
filter in front of a monochrome light emitting thin-film EL device. The structure
is fully solid-state, with the colour filter laminated on top of the display. The
light is emitted in a luminescent layer sandwiched between two transparent

dielectric layers and a matrix of row and column electrodes. The display glass
and the electronic circuit assembly board (ECA) is mounted to a metal support
by elastic spacers. The row electrodes are connected to the ECA with soldered
lead frames. Column electrodes are connected via column driver TAB tapes.
The result is a display with excellent visual characteristics in a compact, reliable
and rugged structure.
In the EL640.480-AA1, the 640 (x 2) column and 480 row electrodes are
arranged in a X-Y formation with the intersecting areas performing as pixels.
Voltages applied to both the correct row and column electrodes to cause a lit
sub-pixel. Operating voltages required are provided by the integrated DC/DC
converter.

Connector Description
User video signals are brought onto the display via connector J1. The pin
layout of J1 is compatible with Planar EL640.480-A series and EL7768MS
display. Additionally the pin layout of the first 26 pins is also compatible with
the feature connector on a VGA display controller. The +5 Vdc and +12 Vdc
power input to the display is via connector J2.
For easy interfacing with VGA display controllers the data and control input
signals on J1 are VGA timing compatible. The display automatically determines
the mode of operation.
Additional Grounding for Low EMI
For best EMI attenuation performance, the metal assembly support should be
tied to system ground via the four corner mounting ears or the grounding lug
near the data input connector J1. The grounding lug can also be used for
grounding the shield of the video signal cable.
Control Basics
The EL glass panel is a matrix structure with column and row electrodes
arranged in X-Y formation. Light is emitted when an AC voltage of sufficient
amplitude is applied at a row-column intersection. The display operation is
based on a symmetric, line-at-a-time addressing scheme. User signals VCLK, HS
or _BLANK, and VS control loading of pixel data into the display's internal
frame buffer. Output of the pixel data from the frame buffer as well as the
generation of the display scanning signals are controlled by internal logic.
Input thresholds to the display are 74AC CMOS compatible.

Display Features
The EL640.480-AA1 has an internal frame buffer. The display scan and display
brightness is independent of user timing.
Video Data
Input signals D0…D3 contain the serial video data to be displayed on the
screen. Pixel information is supplied from left to right and from top to bottom.
For each pixel, D0…D3 select one of the three intensity levels for each of the
two subpixels to form the appropriate pixel colour. Note that Vcc1 supply
voltage should be present whenever data input signals are applied.

Display Enable
Self Test
The display scanning can be shut off for screen save or minimal power
operation by a LOW state on the ENABLE control input. When disabled, the
display is totally dark and only the display internal logic remains operating. In
normal operation, the ENABLE input should be pulled HIGH or left
disconnected.
The operation of the display can be easily checked without any external
signals by utilizing the self-scan nature of the display. By applying power to
the display without any other input, the display starts scanning, displaying the
undefined data that is present in the frame buffer memory.
Luminance Control
The brightness of the display can be controlled with an external, user supplied
50 kΩ logarithmic potentiometer or a DC-voltage ranging from 0 to 5 V
connected to control input J3. Minimum luminance is obtained with a short
circuit or 0 V between the pins. Open circuit voltage is +5 V nominal, short
circuit current is 0,3 mA max.

Display Operation Modes
The EL640.480-AA1 features three video interface modes. The first is Normal
mode which is similar to that used by most other Planar display products. The
second mode supports 640x400, 720x400 and 640 x 480 subsets of the VGA
video interface standard. Mode selection is automatically performed by the
display using _BLANK, HS and VS. The third mode is compatible with the
interface timings used in most TFT LCD displays.
Normal mode: This mode is pin and timing compatible with the Normal mode
of the EL640.480-A series displays. In this mode only seven input signals are
needed: video data (D0…D3), video clock (VCLK), horizontal sync (HS) and
vertical sync (VS). _BLANK is not used and should be pulled HIGH or left
disconnected.
In Normal mode the first 640 pixels after the rise of HS are displayed. The top
most row displayed is the HS high time which is marked by the rise of VS. See
details on setup and hold timing on page 15 and Normal Mode timing on page
13.
VGA mode: This input timing mode is compatible with feature connector
signals from a VGA video board. The display supports VGA modes 2, 3, 6, E, 2+,
3+, 7+, 11 and 12.
VGA mode operation is similar to Normal mode except that _BLANK is used to
frame valid video data. The border timing included in _BLANK is taken into
account in the interpretation of this signal. Similarly the border timing
included in VS is taken into account in the placement of the top displayed row.
_BLANK must be LOW during the rise of VS for VGA mode to be selected. See
details on setup and hold timing on page 15 and VGA Mode timing on page
12.
TFT LCD Mode: This input timing mode is similar to 640x480 pixel VGA mode
except that _BLANK signal frames only the active pixels in each row. Selection
of TFT mode is done with the VMODE input signal on J1 pin 29. See details on
setup and hold timing on page 15 and TFT LCD mode timing on page 14.

Installation and Handling
Mounting
Mounting of the EL640.480-AA1 should be done using the four corner
mounting ears.
Handling
Before handling the display, necessary precaution must be taken to prevent
the application of static charges to the display from the operator or tools.
The display is made of glass material and should be handled with proper care.
Do not drop, bend or flex the display or allow hard objects to strike its surface.
The TAB leads between the electronics and the glass of the display are very
sensitive to handling. Do not remove the bezel. A protective sheet with
optional antiglare coating is highly recommended for use over the display.
Cleaning
Clean the display glass with mild, water-based detergents only. Apply the
cleaner sparingly to a soft cloth, then wipe the display.
EL640.480-AA1 Operations Manual (020-0357-00A)
11
Cable Length
For trouble-free data transfer from the video source to the display input
connector, a maximum cable length of 600 mm (24 in.) is recommended.
When driving the display from a VGA Feature Connector, proper signal
buffering should be ensured. In order to lower signal reflections, suitable series
resistors which approximately match the cable impedance may be placed at
the source end of the video signals. The display input thresholds are 74AC
CMOS. _BLANK, VMODE and ENABLE inputs have 1 kΩ pull-up resistors. All
video lines have 100 Ω series resistors.
Avoiding Burn-in
As with any other light emitting display, luminance variation may be noticed if
fixed patterns are displayed on the screen for extended periods. It is prudent
to use a screen saver or image inversion to avoid burn-in.
Electrostatic Caution: The Planar display uses CMOS and power MOSFET
devices. These components are electrostatic sensitive. Unpack, assemble and
examine this assembly in a static-controlled area only. When shipping use
packing materials designed for protection of electrostatic-sensitive
components.
Handling Caution: The TAB leads between the electronics and the glass of
the display are very sensitive to handling. The bezel of the display should not
be removed, and when cleaning the edges of the display glass, special care
should be taken not to touch the unprotected leads.

Description of Warranty
Seller warrants that the Goods will conform to published specifications and be free from defects in
material for 12 months from delivery. To the extent that Goods incorporate third-party-owned
software, Seller shall pass on Seller's licensor's warranty to Buyer subject to the terms and conditions
of Seller's license.
Warranty repairs shall be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. Buyer shall
report defect claims in writing to Seller immediately upon discovery, and in any event, within the
warranty period. Buyer must return Goods to Seller within 30 days of Seller’s receipt of a warranty
claim notice and only after receiving Seller’s Return Goods Authorization. Seller shall, at its sole
option, repair or replace the Goods.
If Goods were repaired, altered or modified by persons other than Seller, this warranty is void.
Conditions resulting from normal wear and tear and Buyer's failure to properly store, install, operate,
handle or maintain the Goods are not within this warranty. Repair or replacement of Goods is
Seller’s sole obligation and Buyer's exclusive remedy for all claims of defects. If that remedy is
adjudicated insufficient, Seller shall refund Buyer's paid price for the Goods and have no other
liability to Buyer.
All warranty repairs must be performed at Seller’s authorized service center using parts approved by
Seller. Buyer shall pay costs of sending Goods to Seller on a warranty claim and Seller shall pay costs
of returning Goods to Buyer. The turnaround time on repairs will usually be 30 working days or less.
Seller accepts no added liability for additional days for repair or replacement.
If Seller offers technical support relating to the Goods, such support shall neither modify the
warranty nor create an obligation of Seller. Buyer is not relying on Seller’s skill or judgment to select
Goods for Buyer’s purposes. Seller’s software, if included with Goods, is sold as is, and this warranty
is inapplicable to such software.
SELLER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
