General Description
Description
LTA230AN03 is a color active matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) that uses amorphous silicon TFT(Thin Film
Transistor) as switching components. This model is composed of a TFT LCD panel, a driver circuit, and a
back-light unit. This 23.0” model has a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels (16:9) can display up to
16.7 Million colors with the wide viewing angle of 89° or higher in all directions. This panel is intended to
support applications by providing an excellent performance for the display products with a flat panel such as
Home-alone Multimedia TFT-LCD TV and a High Definition TV.

note1)The minimum and maximum limits are based on statistical analysis of the device performance over process, voltage, and temperature
ranges. this parameter is functionality tested only on automatic test equipment (ATE)
note2)The limits are based onbench charaterization of the device's jitter response over the power supply voltage range. output clock jitter is
measured with a cycle to cycle jitter of ± 3ns applied to the input clock signal while data inputs are switching (fig8,9).A jitter event of 3 ns,
represents worse case jump in the clock edge from most graphics controller VGA Cihps currently available. this parameter is used when calculating

’s value for supply voltage, BLU, and signal to the external system of the module shall be
computed in observance of the former mentioned value.
The method to apply the voltage to the lamp within the range, which the LCD operates. When the back-
light is turned on before the LCD is operated or the power of LCD is turned off before the back-light is
turned off, the abnormal display on the screen may be shown momentarily.
Please keep the level of input signal low or keep the level of impedance high when the V
DD
is off.
The value shall be measured after the module has been fully discharged between the periods when the
power is on and off during the T4.

(1) Do not connect or disconnect the cable to the module at the "Power On" condition.
(2) The power shall be always turned on/off by the item 6.4. "Power on/off sequence"
(3) The module has a circuit with a high frequency. The electromagnetic interference shall be suppressed by
system manufacturers sufficiently. The methods to ground and shield is important to minimize the
interference.
(4) Design the length of cable to connect between the connector for back-light and the inverter as short as possible
and the shorter cable shall be connected directly.
The cable between the back light connector and its converter power supply should be connected directly with
a minimized length. A longer cable between the back light and the converter may cause lower luminance of
LED package and may require higher startup voltage(Vs).

10.4 Operation condition guide
(a) The LCD product shall be operated under normal conditions.
The normal condition is defined as below;
- Temperature : 20±15℃
- Humidity : 55±20%
- Display pattern : continually changing pattern (Not stationary)
(b) If the product will be used under extreme conditions such as under the high temperature, humidity,
display patterns or the operation time etc.., it is strongly recommended to contact SDC for the
advice about the application of engineering . Otherwise, its reliability and the function may not
be guaranteed. Extreme conditions are commonly found at airports, transit stations, banks, stock markets, and
controlling systems.
10.5 Others
(a) The ultra-violet ray filter is necessary for the outdoor operation.
(b) Avoid the condensation of water which may result in the improper operation of product or the
disconnection of electrode.
(c) Do not exceed the limit on the absolute maximum rating. (For example, the supply voltage
variation, the input voltage variation, the variation in content of parts and environmental temperature,
and so on) If not, the module may be damaged.
(d) If the module keeps displaying the same pattern for a long period of time, the image may be
remained to the screen. To avoid the image sticking, it is recommended to use a screen saver.
(e) This module has its circuitry of PCB's on the rear side and should be handled carefully in order for
a force not to be applied.
(f) Please contact the SDC in advance when the same pattern is displayed for a long time

11. Special precautions
Prevent the panel from breaking by assigning gaps between the panel and the upholding part for panel on the drawing
for the upholding part for panel.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c) of 3-1 for the design of BLU.
The shape of the
upholding part for
panel
Design the upholding part for panel to fit to the panel appropriately when designing the BLU since the shape of the
upholding part for panel may damage the panel.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c) of 3-1 for the design of BLU.
The edge of
upholding part for
panel
Design the edge of panel to have a sufficient space with the upholding part for panel when designing the BLU since the
edge of the upholding part for panel may damage the panel when assembling the panel and BLU.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c) of 3-1 for the design of BLU.
Place the upholding part for the panel in order for the shape of mold, which contacts
with the panel not to interfere with the area of panel.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c) of 3-1 for the design of BLU.
Design the BLU in order for the COF not to contain the lead crack resulted from the tensioned COF created when the
product is twisted if the space between the D-IC COF and the middle mold isn't sufficient.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c),(d),(e),(f), and (g)of 3-2 for the design of BLU.
Design the BLU in order for the product not to contain the lead crack resulted from the tensioned COF caused under
the condition, which the product is twisted by fixing the source PCB.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c),(d),(e),(f), and (g)of 3-2 for the design of BLU.
1) The temperature of each part of product suggested by our company and the second vendor shall meet the standard
of temperature, which is recommended not to be exceeded by our company when the product is affected under the
various temperature ranges.
Apply over 1mm long separation distance stated in the safety standard between the electric part and each conductor.
(Apply the rated separation distance when insulating.)
Apply the thermal pad in a designated size to the product as a measure to lower the temperature of heat in order for
each part to use the rated temperature.
The surrounding area of the POL shall be treated with an electrification treatment since the external ESD may cause a
phenomenon, which the POL is coming off.
In addition, the GND portion of source PBA shall be grounded.
The GND portion of each PBA shall be contacted with the GND portion of BLU.
Refer to the (a) and (b) of 3-3 for the design of BLU.
The standardized approval from the client is required since the EMI is executed by a client.
Our company can only measure the reference since the client measures the BLU.
Design the BLU with considering the maximum height of parts, which our company suggests.
Between the FFC
and the C-PBA
Design the instrument with considering the length between the FFC and the control PBA.
(The marginal minimum length of 5mm or 8mm is required.)
The surface temperature of panel shall be maintained within 0℃ and 45℃ when the external ambient temperature is at
25℃. (Design the BLU with considering the increase of the temperature in the panel by the LED, CCFL, and etc.)
Recommend to age for over 1 hour at least in the state, which the product is driving initially to stabilize the
characteristic of the initial TFT.
The additional confirmation by our company is required If the attachment of gasket to the S-PBA of our company is
required.(To fix the S-PBA or the EMI)
Design the top chassis and the driver IC to be contacted by placing the shape of emboss inside the top chassis as a
measure to prevent the driver IC from heating. The size of emboss shall be designed in larger size than the size of IC
inside the film of the driver IC.
Refer to the (a), (b), (c),(d),(e),(f), and (g)of 3-2 for the design of BLU.
Design the BLU in order for the BLU not to interfere with the area, where the control PBA and the source PBA are
located densely according to the drawing for the BLU from our company.
The material, which contacts with the bottom side of S-PBA which has a pattern shall be non-conducting material or
shall be insulated.
