## **Precautions in use of LCD Modules** 

- (1) Avoid applying excessive shocks to the module or making any alterations or modifications to it. 

- (2) Don’t make extra holes on the printed circuit board, modify its shape or change the components of LCD module. 

- (3) Don’t disassemble the LCM. 

- (4) Don’t operate it above the absolute maximum rating. 

- (5) Don’t drop, bend or twist LCM. 

- (6) Soldering: only to the I/O terminals. 

- (7) Storage: please storage in anti-static electricity container and clean environment. 

- (8) MIDAS have the right to change the passive components, including R3,R6 & backlight adjust resistors. (Resistors,capacitors and other passive components will have different appearance and color caused by the different supplier.) 

- (9) MIDAS have the right to change the PCB Rev. (In order to satisfy the supplying stability, management optimization and the best product performance...etc, under the premise of not affecting the electrical characteristics and external dimensions, MIDAS have the right to modify the version.) 

- (10) To ensure the stability of the display screen, please apply screen saver after showing 30 mins of fixed display content. 

## **Material List of Components for RoHs** 

## 1. MIDAS hereby declares that all of or part of products (with the mark 

- “#”in code), including, but not limited to, the LCM, accessories or packages, manufactured and/or delivered to your company (including your subsidiaries and affiliated company) directly or indirectly by our company (including our subsidiaries or affiliated companies) do not intentionally contain any of the substances listed in all applicable EU directives and regulations, including the following substances.

- 2.Process for RoHS requirement ： (only for RoHS inspection) 

   - (1) Use the Sn/Ag/Cu soldering surface ； the surface of Pb-free solder is rougher than we used before. 

   - (2) Heat-resistance temp. ： 

Reflow ： 250 ℃ ,30 seconds Max. ； 

Connector soldering wave or hand soldering ： 320 ℃ , 10 seconds max. 

- (3) Temp. curve of reflow, max. Temp. ： 235±5 ℃； 

Recommended customer’s soldering temp. of connector ： 280 ℃ , 3 seconds. 

## **Recommendable Storage** 

1. Place the panel or module in the temperature 25°C±5°C and the humidity below 65% RH 

2. Do not place the module near organics solvents or corrosive gases. 

3. Do not crush, shake, or jolt the module.
