Trident announces the compact TX20D19VM2BAA 8 inch wide aspect ratio display from Hitachi, featuring an LED backlight to provide lower power consumption and a longer life than traditional backlight technologies with the same performance.

The TX20D19VM2BAA 8 inch WVGA TFT display module offers a brightness of 350cd/m², excellent display uniformity and a contrast ratio of 200:1. The key innovation is the use of an LED backlight in an 8 inch wide display, delivering bright, clear images in all lighting conditions and environments.

The LED backlight matches the performance of traditional CCFL backlight technologies, but is more robust, uses less power, is easier to control and lasts longer, (70,000 hours) while also dispensing with the need for a high voltage inverter.

High colour saturation and excellent uniformity make the TX20D19 display ideal for applications such as in flight entertainment, media terminals, navigation systems, home automation and industrial user interfaces. The 8 inch display is also available with a touch panel as an optional feature.

The display module measures a compact 189mm (w) x 120mm (h) x 7.5mm (d) and weighs only 170g. Drop-in compatible with existing WVGA displays the TX20D19 also supports operation in extended temperature environments of -20ºC to +70ºC.
