The NL160120BC27-02 21.3-in. thin-film-transistor color LCD UXGA panel incorporates the company's Super Advanced Fine Technology. It's an inplane switching ultra-wide viewing-angle technology that improves light transmissivity for lower-power consumption (30.7 W total at 12 V), higher brightness (250 cd/m2), and faster response time (20 ms total). This 1600- by 1200-pixel module with a 17° viewing angle will find homes in high-end industrial and medical applications. The display features a 500:1 contrast ratio and a 10-bit internal lookup table for the adjustment of gamma characteristics. A compact frame structure provides an 87.5% screen share. Samples of the NL160120BC27-02 are available at $1450 each.
