A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel’s LCD Timing Controller (TCON) manages the timing and signal-sequencing requirements for displaying images on the screen. Incoming video signals must be converted into the proper format for the LCD display by it. The LCD screen and display controller communicate with one another through the TCON.
It receives visual signals from the display controller, including synchronisation, control, and RGB (Red, Green, Blue) data. These signals are then processed and formatted to meet the demands of the LCD panel.
An LCD Timing Controller’s primary duties include: Timing Signal Generation: To regulate the scanning and refreshing of the LCD display, the TCON creates the timing signals required, such as horizontal and vertical synchronisation signals.
Data formatting: It transforms incoming video data into a format that the LCD panel can understand. This entails implementing any necessary transformations or changes, as well as translating the RGB data to the appropriate pixel positions.
Signal Driving: To drive the individual pixels on the LCD screen, the TCON boosts and modifies the voltage levels of the video signals. It makes sure that the electrical signals provided to the LCD screen are adequate to turn on and regulate each pixel’s liquid crystals.
Panel Control: The TCON also manages a number of controls for the LCD panel, including temperature detection, backlight control, and panel power management.
In conclusion, an LCD Timing Controller is an essential part of LCD displays, handling video input reception and processing, timing signal generation, and controlling the LCD panel to produce the desired image.
The Global LCD Timing Controller Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
For the notebook LTPS (Low-Temperature Polysilicon) and Oxide in-cell LCD panel sectors, Parade Technologies, Ltd. has introduced the TC3400 and TC3402, the first highly integrated eDP timing controller (Tcon) devices with embedded source drivers and touchscreen controller (tTED).
Both devices support Embedded Display Port (eDP) 1.4b, which includes features like Multi-SST Operation (MSO) operation and Panel Self-Refresh (PSR), making them targets for the most recent notebook systems from Intel and others.
While the TC3402 offers a capable TrueTouch touch alone solution for common notebooks, the TC3400 device includes TrueTouch in-cell capacitive touch and active stylus functionality for commercial notebook applications.
The TC3400 offers a low-power, highly integrated display and touchscreen solution for notebook-in-cell displays by combining Parade’s extensive portfolio of proprietary display and touchscreen technologies with tried-and-true display processing and high-speed signal technology.
