Precision Engineered, Smart Driving Display: A Practical Solution Designed for Cost-Sensitive Automotive Applications

Core Advantage: Hybrid Display System, Optimized Cost

We introduce an innovative, cost-effective automotive display solution that intelligently combines a 7-inch TFT LCD main screen with a Segment VA LCD Silk-Screen Printed Sub-display. This configuration delivers essential display functionality and reliability while significantly reducing system costs, making it the ideal choice for economical automotive infotainment systems, instrument cluster auxiliary displays, climate control panels, and similar applications.

 

 

Solution Benefits

1. Dual-Display Synergy, Clear Information Hierarchy:
* 7-inch TFT Main Screen: Provides vivid, dynamic information display. Perfect for rendering navigation maps, rearview camera feeds, multimedia information (song titles, album art), and graphical vehicle status data. Touch functionality (optional) enables intuitive interaction.
* Segment VA LCD Silk-Screened Sub-display: Dedicated to showing fixed, critical driving information or status indicators. Examples include time, temperature, basic climate settings (fan speed, mode icons), odometer, gear position, and warning light symbols. Silk-screened graphics ensure excellent clarity and superior sunlight readability with minimal power consumption.

2. Significant Cost Reduction:
* Key Advantage! Compared to using larger or higher-spec full-feature TFT screens, this solution leverages the low cost and high reliability of segment VA LCD technology for static information display, substantially lowering the overall Bill of Materials (BOM) cost.
* Optimized design utilizing mature, cost-effective 7-inch TFT panels and driver solutions.
* Segment LCD silk-screening employs proven, stable manufacturing processes with controllable tooling and production costs.

3. Reliable & Durable, Automotive-Grade Foundations:
* Key components selected to meet fundamental automotive environmental requirements (Wide Operating Temperature Range: -30°C ~ +85°C, specific values TBC).
* Segment VA LCD inherently offers high reliability, long lifespan, and exceptional sunlight visibility (clear readability under direct sun).
* Structural design considers basic automotive demands for vibration resistance and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

4. Practical Functionality, Enhanced User Experience:
* Clear separation of dynamic and static information improves driver comprehension speed and safety.
* Retains the visual appeal and interaction potential of the TFT screen, meeting basic expectations for modern automotive displays.
* The silk-screened sub-display provides "always-on" critical information without activating the main screen, saving energy and offering convenience.

5. Design Flexibility, Easy Integration:
* Offers mature display modules and driver solutions, reducing customer development effort and time-to-market.
* Standardized interfaces facilitate connection with mainstream automotive head unit platforms.
* Appearance and sub-display silk-screen content are highly customizable to specific client requirements.
