Note 2 : Display with Raspberry pi the driver power is over USB , first make sure you have a 2A power supply, with a good quality USB cable, a thin wire power cable is no good. Make sure its 24AWG or smaller, shorter USB cables are better too. 

Note 3: The “LED life time” is defined as the module brightness decrease to 50% original brightness at Ta=25 ℃ and IL =60mA. The LED lifetime could be decreased if operating IL is lager than 60mA.

Note 1: Definition of viewing angle range 

Fig. 9.1. Definition of viewing angle 

## Note 2: Test equipment setup: 

After stabilizing and leaving the panel alone at a driven temperature for 10 minutes, the measurement should be executed. Measurement should be executed in a stable, windless, and dark room. Optical specifications are measured by Topcon BM-7or BM-5 luminance meter 1.0° field of view at a distance of 50cm and normal direction.

Fig. 9.2. Optical measurement system setup 

Note 3: Definition of Response time: 

The response time is defined as the LCD optical switching time interval between “White” state and “Black” state. Rise time, Tr, is the time between photo detector output intensity changed from 90%to 10%. And fall time, Tf, is the time between photo detector output intensity changed from 10%to 90%

Note 4: Definition of contrast ratio: 

The contrast ratio is defined as the following expression. 

Luminance measured when LCD on the "White" state Contrast ratio (CR) = Luminance measured when LCD on the "Black" state 

Note 5: Definition of Luminance Uniformity 

Active area is divided into 9 measuring areas (reference the picture in below). Every measuring point is placed at the center of each measuring area. Luminance Uniformity (U) = Lmin/Lmax x100% L = Active area length D - = L — W = Active area width 

Fig9.3. . Definition of uniformity 

Note 6: Definition of color chromaticity (CIE 1931) Color coordinates measured at the center point of LCD 

Note 7: Measured at the center area of the panel when all the input terminals of LCD panel are electrically opened.
