World’s leading LED epitaxial wafer and chip manufacturer, San'an Optoelectronics, announced that several of the panel manufacturers at the recent CES 2019 event, showcased the use of its latest Mini LED and advanced Micro LED chips. From TVs, digital displays, smartphones and smart watches to augmented / virtual reality (AR/VR) goggles, and gaming notebooks, San'an’s LED technology was unveiled by several manufacturers is their latest offerings.
Since the technology debuted at CES in 2017, San'an has led the industry in large-scale production of RGB Mini LEDs, and has complimented its portfolio with R&D advancements and capacity investments for Micro LED, including 27 applied patents and key partnerships. Given the maturity of Mini LED technology, display panel manufacturers are widely implementing across a broad range of consumer applications, including for cinema screens, and soon also for automotive.
Mini LEDs, with its compact unit size between 100 to 200 micrometers, allow for high density backlight designs with local dimming capabilities. It helps create ultra-thin, ultra-compact designs with stylistic features such as for notch and curved form-factors. As a display technology, it provides superior energy efficiency with ultra-high brightness, high dynamic range (HDR), with higher color saturation, contrast and resolution compared to the traditional liquid crystal display (LCD) approach. Micro LED is poised to be the revolutionary next-generation technology which will offer significant advances in image quality through individually driven self-emitting pixels and in even more miniaturized form-factors.
The industry, according to San'an, is taking full advantage of the key benefits that Mini LEDs bring, namely enhanced power savings, and higher performance. Given the success of their core business in LED chips combined with manufacturing infrastructure and cost competitiveness through economies of scale, San'an has been able to overcome the high barrier of entry for the Mini LED market. While the company is fully committed to drive innovation further for this technology and is well positioned to support the market’s high volume demand, they are also ramping up R&D and scaling up capacity for Micro LED production to meet the demands of the next wave of innovative LED displays.
The company offers a family of RGB display and backlight Mini LEDs with various element sizes, dimensions, and light output power (LOP) ratings, ideal for these emerging applications and market trends, with high volume production capacity. Customized form-factors and solutions are also available.
