NEW LED DISPLAY DESIGNED AS A SOLID-STATE ALTERNATIVE TO POPULAR PLASMA DISPLAYS
14 August 2006 - Vishay Electronic

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc today announced the industry’s first 128 x 32 LED graphics display with drive electronics and +5 Volt HC CMOS-level video interface. Designed as a drop-in compatible replacement for the popular APD-128G032 plasma display module, the LED-128G032 is designed to offer high brightness and superior viewing characteristics in a slim package.

The LED-128G032 has four times the life of a plasma display, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. With a 12.75-in. x 3.15-in. viewing area, the LED display is optimized for low- to medium-level information content and is suited for applications such as arcade games, process control, POS terminals, medical equipment, message centers, and automatic teller machines.

Featuring a very low 17.78-mm profile, the LED-128G032 LED display emits a brilliant orange color. The display has large 16.51-mm x 11.43-mm characters for long distance readability, offers a high contrast ratio of >30:1, and provides a wide viewing angle of >150°.

Samples of the new LED display are available now. Production quantities will be available in 12 weeks with lead times of 12 weeks for larger orders.
