Seoul Semiconductor exhibits LEDs at SID’s Vehicle Displays & Interfaces Symposium
At the Vehicle Displays & Interfaces Symposium 2023, organized by the Society of Information Display (SID), in Detroit, MI, USA (26-27 September), South Korean LED maker Seoul Semiconductor Co Ltd is exhibiting its LED products and technologies for future in-vehicle displays, such as 1515, Mini-LED products for local dimming, and WICOP Pixel Micro-LED, in line with the evolution of automotive displays, which are increasing in size and resolution.
1515 ultra-small LED for local dimming
The ultra-small 1515 LED product is optimized for full-array local dimming, which divides the LED backlight into multiple zones that can be controlled independently. 1515 helps to achieve a high-brightness display with high contrast ratios, as it can control light output to a very fine level on the strength of its small size and its performance.
Mini-LED with ultra-high resolution and maximized visibility
In Seoul Semiconductor’s Mini-LED, the backlight chip has been reduced to smaller than a tenth of the typical size and mounted in large quantities on a vehicle display, enabling delicate brightness control, a high contrast ratio, and high color reproduction. Visibility has also been maximized, considering the bright in-car environment.
First RGB one-chip technology, WICOP Pixel MicroLED display
Seoul Semiconductor claims that its WICOP Pixel is the world’s first full-color one-chip technology that stacks three color LEDs (RGB) vertically. This allows RGB LEDs to emit light as if they are a single pixel, enabling not only the uniform representation of colors but also the reproduction of a wide range of black colors – three times superior to existing micro-LED devices.
“We will continue to develop and supply LED products for future automobiles that meet our customers demand in these very exciting times for automotive displays,” says Michel Zwanenburg, executive VP of the IT Sales Group at Seoul Semiconductor.
