NL8060BC26-17 Structure and Functions
A color TFT (thin film transistor) LCD module consists of a TFT liquid crystal panel, driver LSIs for controlling the TFT array, and a backlight unit. The TFT panel is formed by placing liquid crystal material between a TFT array glass substrate and a color filter glass substrate. Once the driver LSIs are mounted and connected, the backlight assembly is attached to the rear of the panel.
RGB (red, green, and blue) signals from the source system are processed and converted into active-matrix drive signals by the internal signal processor, then delivered to the driver LSIs to control each TFT pixel. Each TFT cell functions as an electro-optical switch, adjusting the amount of backlight passing through the red, green, and blue sub-pixels. By precisely controlling light transmission across the pixel array, the module produces clear and accurate color images.

Caution
Caution when taking out the module
1) Pick up the pouch only, when removing the module from a carrier box.
Cautions for handling the module
1) Handle carefully to prevent ESD damage.
2) Avoid impact or pressure; the panel and backlight are fragile glass.
3) Clean only with a soft, dry, chemical-free cloth.
4) Do not connect or disconnect cables while powered on.
5) Place the module display-side down on a flat surface.
6) Handle connectors and cables gently; avoid stress.
7) Ensure CLK, Hsync, and Vsync signals remain stable during operation.
8) Mounting screw torque must not exceed 0.294 N·m.
9) Do not push or rub the display surface to avoid scratches.
Cautions regarding atmosphere
1) Avoid condensation or dew conditions.
2) Do not store or operate in high temperature or high humidity environments; use ESD-safe packaging and cool storage.
3) CCFL backlight lifetime decreases significantly at very low temperatures.
4) Avoid operation in strong magnetic fields.
Cautions about module characteristics
1) Avoid displaying fixed patterns for long periods to prevent image sticking.
2) Color shift and non-uniformity may occur at different viewing angles or high temperatures due to the retardation film.
3) Light vertical stripes may appear depending on the display pattern; this is normal.
4) Inverter noise may be heard during brightness control; this is normal and not a defect.
