From Planar Systems, Inc.
Planar’s ICEBriteTM displays have exceptional contrast and brightness combined with relatively low power consumption. This is achieved through a split screen architecture where the display is divided into an upper and a lower half. Both halves are scanned simultaneously, resulting in twice the maximum frame rate compared with the conventional architecture. In addition, power consumption is reduced by using some special characteristics of EL display technology. Most displays are refreshed at 60 Hz. The ICEBrite displays can also be refreshed at 120 Hz. Brightness is proportional to refresh rate, resulting in double the brightness when refreshed at 120 Hz. This additional brightness is advantageous in bright light conditions, however there are times when you may want to dim the display for specific applications, or in low ambient environments. Products & Services
Commercial matrix displays include any type of display used in commercial applications.
Video cards are used to regulate the data displayed on computer monitors.
Flat panel displays (FPDs) are thin, flat, electronic devices used to display data. They are commonly used in notebook computers. Most styles include the housing and ports necessary to connect them to a computer.
Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chips are single-transistor memory cells that use small capacitors to store each bit of memory in an addressable format that consists of rows and columns. Because capacitors are unable to hold a charge indefinitely, DRAM memory chips require a near-constant pulse of current to retain stored information.
Multi-input display processors combine multiple signals from real-time video and computer inputs on a single high-resolution projector of monitor.
