Dual Screen Display by Sharp

A well-detailed article via Tech-On dedicated to Sharps new dual-screen controller, targeting new multi-purpose market use cases http://bit.ly/9jSJTK

Machine Translation:

Sharp is liquid crystal was developed as a new product of sv=NX control IC. The pixel count can display different dynamic scene data of 1024×480 pixels or less (half XGA corresponding) in two liquid crystal panels at the same time (Figure 1). It is also possible to make them output the animation of so-called, full HD of 1920×1080 pixels to the LCD TV and the projector, etc. that connect the external by way of HDMI (Figure 2).

This company old goods were announced in July, 2008 “LR388D8″. The pixel count corresponded to two screen display of different dynamic scene data of 864×480 pixels or less (wide VGA corresponding). It is 16 Mbits as for the memory capacity that builds it into this time..high-resolution or more.. display of [kaku] image is said achievement by improving the image processing speed besides increasing it from sv=NX to 32 Mbits.

I want to develop a new market.

“It is not mere performance improvement goods. “Shuichi Katayama (councilor of the second this company electronic device business headquarters system device division Planning Division) who one of the developers locates LR388G9 announced this time in case of the product on the extension wire of old goods without. Similarly, the Yutaka Horikawa history Mr. (The this company electronic device business headquarters NB business making promotion center system development department sub-councilor) who took charge of development also continues , saying that “Both of two LCD displays to which roles such as the main screens and subscreens had been performed up to now better pictures were able to be done and both came to be caught as a main screen”. Current, smart phone It aims at not only for sv=NX but the demand stimulation in a new market (Figure 3). For instance, digital book The terminal, the photo frame, and the net book, etc. were enumerated (Figure 4 and Figure 5).

To develop a new market, it changed greatly besides the improvement of the image quality. Some interfaces besides HDMI to output full HD animation were newly installed. Concretely, it corresponded to MIPI(Mobile Industry Processor Interface) that was one of the high-speed serial interfaces. Cellular phone/async/async.do/ae=P_LK_ILTERM that U.S. Qualcomm Co. promotes in this company old goods. It was only cereal for the sv=NX machine and interface standard “MDDI (Mobile Display Digital Interface)1.0/1.1″. In the development goods, it is assumed that generality was improved by corresponding also to MDDI 1.1/1.2/Type2 besides MIPI.

The interface for the liquid crystal panel made MIPI correspond. “SVDI(Sharp Video Display Interface)” that Sharp developed is installed so far. The interface for the still picture has improved the one that was current eight million pixels or less up to 14 million pixels. Besides this, high-speed infrared rays communication standard “IrSimple” and SD/SDHC memory card. It provides with the interface of sv=NX.

The package is WFBGA of 261 terminals, and externals size is 8mm×8mm. The sample has already been being shipped. The sample price is 2400 yen. The mass production of 100,000 pieces in monthly production is scheduled on September 1, 2010.
