1. General Description
This specification applies to the 40.0 inch Color TFT-LCD Module T400HW02 V3. This LCD
module has a TFT active matrix type liquid crystal panel 1,920x1,080 pixels, and diagonal size of 40.0
inch. This module supports 1,920x1,080 mode. Each pixel is divided into Red, Green and Blue
sub-pixels or dots which are arranged in vertical stripes. Gray scale or the brightness of the sub-pixel
color is determined with a 8-bit gray scale signal for each dot.
The T400HW02 V3 has been designed to apply the 8-bit 2 channel LVDS interface method. It is
intended to support displays where high brightness, wide viewing angle, high color saturation, and
high color depth are very important.

3. Electrical Specification
The T400HW02 V3 requires two power inputs. One is employed to power the LCD electronics and to
drive the TFT array and liquid crystal. The second input, which powers the CCFL, is typically
generated by an integrate power (I/P) system.

5. The performance of the Lamp in LCD panel, for example life time or brightness, is extremely
influenced by the characteristics of balanced board and I/P board. All the parameters should
be carefully designed as not to produce too much leakage current from high-voltage output.
While you design or order the balance board, please make sure unwanted lighting caused by
the mismatch of the lamp and the balanced board (no lighting, flicker, etc) never occurs. After
confirmation, the LCD panel should be operated in the same condition as installed in your
instrument
6. Do not attach a conducting tape to lamp connecting wire. If the lamp wire attach to conducting
tape, TFT-LCD Module have a low luminance and the inverter has abnormal action because
leakage current occurs between lamp wire and conducting tape.
7. The relative humidity must not exceed 80% non-condensing at temperatures of 40 ℃ or less.
At temperatures greater than 40℃, the wet bulb temperature must not exceed 39 ℃. When
operate at low temperatures, the brightness of CCFL will drop and the life time of CCFL will be
reduced.

in a dark environment at 25°C. The values specified are at an approximate distance 50cm from the LCD
surface at a viewing angle of φ and θ equal to 0°.

Note:
1. Contrast Ratio (CR) is defined mathematically as:
Surface Luminance of Lon5
Contrast Ratio=
Surface Luminance of Loff5

2. Surface luminance is luminance value at point 5 across the LCD surface 50cm from the surface with all
pixels displaying white. From more information see FIG 2. When lamp current I H = 11mA. LWH=Lon5
where Lon5 is the luminance with all pixels displaying white at center 5 location.

3. The variation in surface luminance, δWHITE is defined (center of Screen) as:

δWHITE(9P)= Maximum(L on1, Lon2,…,Lon9)/ Minimum(L on1, Lon2,…Lon9)

4. Response time Tγ is the average time required for display transition by switching the input signal for
five luminance ratio (0%,25%,50%,75%,100% brightness matrix) and is based on f v=60Hz to optimize.

5. Viewing angle is the angle at which the contrast ratio is greater than 10. The angles are determined for
the horizontal or x axis and the vertical or y axis with respect to the z axis which is normal to the LCD
surface. For more information see FIG4.

9. PRECAUTIONS
Please pay attention to the followings when you use this TFT LCD module.

9-1 MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS

(1) You must mount a module using holes arranged in four corners or four sides.
(2) You should consider the mounting structure so that uneven force (ex. Twisted stress) is not
applied to module. And the case on which a module is mounted should have sufficient
strength so that external force is not transmitted directly to the module.
(3) Please attach the surface transparent protective plate to the surface in order to protect the
polarizer. Transparent protective plate should have sufficient strength in order to the resist
external force.
(4) You should adopt radiation structure to satisfy the temperature specification.
(5) Acetic acid type and chlorine type materials for the cover case are not desirable because the
former generates corrosive gas of attacking the polarizer at high temperature and the latter
causes circuit break by electro-chemical reaction.
(6) Do not touch, push or rub the exposed polarizer with glass, tweezers or anything harder than
HB pencil lead. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment. Do not
touch the surface of polarizer for bare hand or greasy cloth. (Some cosmetics are detrimental
to the polarizer.)
(7) When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft
materials like chamois soaks with petroleum benzene. Normal-hexane is recommended for
cleaning the adhesives used to attach front/ rear polarizer. Do not use acetone, toluene and
alcohol because they cause chemical damage to the polarizer.
(8) Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible. Their long time contact with polarizer
causes deformations and color fading.
(9) Do not open the case because inside circuits do not have sufficient strength.

9-2 OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

(1) The device listed in the product specification sheets was designed and manufactured for TV
application
(2) The spike noise causes the mis-operation of circuits. It should be lower than following
voltage: V=±200mV(Over and under shoot voltage)
(3) Response time depends on the temperature. (In lower temperature, it becomes longer..)
(4) Brightness of CCFL depends on the temperature. (In lower temperature, it becomes lower.)
And in lower temperature, response time (required time that brightness is stable after turned
on) becomes longer.
(5) Be careful for condensation at sudden temperature change. Condensation makes damage to
polarizer or electrical contacted parts. And after fading condensation, smear or spot will
occur.
(6) When fixed patterns are displayed for a long time, remnant image is likely to occur.
(7) Module has high frequency circuits. Sufficient suppression to the electromagnetic
interference shall be done by system manufacturers. Grounding and shielding methods may
be important to minimize the interface.
9-3 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE CONTROL
Since a module is composed of electronic circuits, it is not strong to electrostatic discharge. Make
certain that treatment persons are connected to ground through wristband etc. And don ’t touch
interface pin directly.

9-4 PRECAUTIONS FOR STRONG LIGHT EXPOSURE

Strong light exposure causes degradation of polarizer and color filter.

9-5 STORAGE
When storing modules as spares for a long time, the following precautions are necessary.
(1) Store them in a dark place. Do not expose the module to sunlight or fluorescent light. Keep
the temperature between 5℃ and 35℃ at normal humidity.
(2) The polarizer surface should not come in contact with any other object. It is recommended
that they be stored in the container in which they were shipped.

9-6 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR PROTECTION FILM

(1) The protection film is attached to the bezel with a small masking tape. When the protection
film is peeled off, static electricity is generated between the film and polarizer. This should
be peeled off slowly and carefully by people who are electrically grounded and with well
ion-blown equipment or in such a condition, etc.
(2) When the module with protection film attached is stored for a long time, sometimes there
remains a very small amount of flue still on the Bezel after the protection film is peeled off.
(3) You can remove the glue easily. When the glue remains on the Bezel or its vestige is
recognized, please wipe them off with absorbent cotton waste or other soft material like
chamois soaked with normal-hexane.
