New Product Introduction- Winstar AMOLED

Winstar Display released a series of AMOLED modules which is available for sampling and production. AMOLED (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode) is an emerging display technology for use in portable electronics. OLED describes a specific type of ultra thin, ultra bright display technology which doesn't require a backlight and Active-Matrix refers to the technology behind the addressing of pixels.

An active-matrix OLED (AMOLED) display consists of OLED pixels that have been deposited or integrated onto a thin film transistor (TFT) array to form a matrix of pixels that illuminate light upon electrical activation, which functions as a series of switches to control the current flowing to each of the pixels. The TFT array continuously controls the current that flows to the pixels, signaling to each pixel how brightly to shine.

Typically, this continuous current flow is controlled by at least two TFTs at each pixel, one to start and stop the charging of a storage capacitor and the second to provide a voltage source at the level needed to create a constant current to the pixel and eliminating need for the very high currents required for passive OLED matrix operation.

The following AMOLED items are available for sampling and production.
