US Micro Products has supported OEM programs since 1996.

US Micro Products offers a broad range of engineered solutions, including displays, monitors, tablets, HMI, solution assemblies, and custom batteries.

US Micro Products works with established manufacturing partners, primarily in Asia, including Korea, Taiwan, China, and Vietnam.

We operate with deep manufacturing partnerships across Asia — the same model used by leading semiconductor companies. We maintain direct relationships with display manufacturers in Korea, Taiwan, China, and Vietnam. This lets us design, develop, and deliver application-specific solutions across a wide range of technologies without being tied to a single factory or production line.

Yes. Because US Micro Products works through established manufacturing partnerships rather than relying on a single owned factory, we are not tied to any one country. We maintain direct relationships with display and component manufacturers in Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, and China. When your program requires sourcing outside China, we can structure a complete display solution using partner-country components and manufacturing locations. This can include the display panel, touchscreen, cover glass, controller, and final assembly. This flexibility helps OEMs address tariffs, supply-chain risk, and country-of-origin requirements. Please contact our sales team to review the best sourcing plan for your application.

We currently have a limited number of sizes of AMOLEDs in Mass Production. Additional sizes are being developed.

Our PMOLEDs come in sizes from 0.5" to 5.9". We also offer custom shapes and sizes. Please contact our sales team to discuss the appropriate display for your application.

We offer active matrix TFTs up to over 80" diagonally. Passive LCDs can be smaller than 1.0" in diagonal. We also offer custom shapes and sizes. Please contact our sales team to discuss the appropriate display for your application.

We offer a variety of touch screen technologies, including: Projected Capacitive Touch, Surface Capacitive Touch, 4, 5 and 8 wire Resistive Touch, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW), and Infrared (IR) Touch. Chemically strengthened glass and low reflective coating are available on some touch screen displays to improve performance and durability.

Our touch screens come in sizes from 2.4" to 55". Touch screens can be integrated with US Micro Products TFT and OLED display modules to reduce sourcing complexity and streamline production.

Yes. US Micro Products can provide touch screens, chemically strengthened glass, controller boards, and related display components.

All of USMP's displays are backed by our 12-month standard warranty. We work closely with our partners to ensure high-quality standards.

Yes. US Micro Products designs and manufactures sunlight-readable displays engineered for outdoor and high-ambient-light environments. Outdoor readability comes from a combination of engineering choices: high-brightness backlights — ranging from a standard ~250 nits to 1,000+ nits, and up to 2,500+ nits for direct sunlight — paired with anti-reflective (AR) and anti-glare (AG) surface treatments and optical bonding that removes internal reflections to raise contrast, ruggedness, and daylight legibility. For harsh outdoor conditions we can also add wide-temperature operation, heaters for cold environments, chemically strengthened cover glass, and projected-capacitive (PCAP) touch. These solutions are used across military, marine, outdoor industrial, kiosk, and transportation applications. Whether you need a modification to a standard panel or a fully custom design, our display engineers can specify the right brightness, optical stack, and ruggedization to keep your display readable in direct sunlight.

This is caused by the polarizing filters in both the display and your sunglasses — not a fault with the screen. Nearly all fuel-pump displays are LCDs, and every LCD emits light that is linearly polarized by a filter bonded to the front of the panel. Polarized sunglasses contain their own filter, oriented to block horizontally polarized glare. When the display's polarization axis and the lens axis are roughly 90° apart, the two filters cross and cancel the light, so the screen looks dark or black — often only at certain angles or orientations. Tilting your head (or the device) about 90° realigns the filters and the image reappears. For outdoor and sunlight-readable applications, US Micro Products can specify the polarizer orientation or add optical films and retarder layers so screens stay readable through polarized eyewear.

IPS panels provide wide viewing angles (170°+ in all directions) and accurate color reproduction, making them ideal for multi-viewer or critical-color applications. TN panels have faster response times and lower cost but narrower viewing angles (typically 60-70° off-axis). Choose IPS for medical, automotive, and industrial HMI; TN for single-operator instrumentation and cost-sensitive designs.

Interface selection depends on resolution, update rate, cable length, and your processor. SPI suits small displays under 320×240. RGB parallel works well up to 1024×600 with dedicated LCD controllers. LVDS is standard for 7"+ industrial panels. MIPI DSI matches modern ARM SoCs. eDP handles Full HD and above. Our engineers can recommend the optimal interface for your system architecture.

Yes. We routinely modify backlight assemblies to achieve brightness from 300 nits (indoor) to 1,500+ nits (direct sunlight readability). Custom brightness levels do not typically require tooling charges.

Standard products from inventory ship in 1-2 weeks. Custom modifications typically require 8-12 weeks depending on complexity. Contact our team for a specific timeline based on your requirements.

Yes. We offer high-brightness TFT modules (1,000+ nits) combined with optical bonding and anti-reflective coatings for full sunlight readability.

AMOLED consumes less power than LCD when displaying predominantly dark content because unlit pixels draw zero power. For applications with bright, full-screen white content, an LCD may be more power-efficient. Most wearable and IoT UI designs use dark themes, making AMOLED the preferred choice for battery life optimization.

Most AMOLED modules operate from -20°C to 70°C. Select larger panels (7"+) support extended ranges from -30°C to 85°C, and our largest modules (12.8" and 13") are rated for -40°C to 85°C.

AMOLED displays with peak brightness of 600+ nits and optical bonding are readable in bright outdoor conditions. For direct sunlight applications, we can combine high-brightness AMOLED panels with anti-reflective cover glass. However, for extreme outdoor readability, high-brightness TFT LCDs may be more suitable.

PMOLED uses a passive-matrix driving scheme while AMOLED uses active-matrix with a transistor per pixel. PMOLED is simpler and more cost-effective for small displays (under 4") with moderate resolution. AMOLED scales to larger sizes and higher resolutions. Our AMOLED displays are available in sizes from 0.95" to 27".

Most PMOLED modules support I2C, SPI, or parallel interfaces for integration with common microcontrollers. Interface availability varies by model — check the product table on the PMOLED page for specific options.

Our PMOLED catalog includes monochrome white, yellow, and red options, plus dual-color (yellow/white) and full-color RGB modules. White is available across the widest range of sizes.

Round AMOLED displays range from approximately 1" to 2.2" diagonal, ideal for wearables and compact devices. Round TFT LCDs are available in larger sizes from approximately 1.3" to 4" diagonal, suitable for gauges, thermostats, and industrial panels.

Round AMOLEDs offer superior contrast (true blacks), thinner profiles, and lower power consumption — ideal for battery-powered wearables. Round TFTs offer higher brightness options, wider temperature ranges, and larger sizes — better suited for industrial gauges and harsh environments.

Yes. Several round TFT and AMOLED models are available with integrated capacitive touch panels (CTP), supporting single and multi-touch interaction.

Yes. We specialize in custom displays. We can modify brightness, cover glass, operating temperature range, touch integration, and other specifications around your application requirements.

RTOS modules (STM32-based) are designed for deterministic, real-time HMI applications with simple interfaces like UART, CAN, and RS485. Android/Linux modules (PX30, i.MX8M Mini) support rich graphics, multi-touch, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, and multimedia — suited for complex connected applications.

Our smart display catalog ranges from 2.4" to 10.1" diagonal.

Select modules include capacitive touch (PCAP). Others are display-only. Check the product table on the smart displays page for touch availability on each model.

Our graphic LCD catalog includes resolutions from 128x64 to 320x240. The most common configurations are 128x64, 160x160, 240x128, 240x64, and 320x240.

STN (Super-Twisted Nematic) provides improved viewing angles and contrast over standard TN technology. FSTN (Film-compensated STN) adds an optical compensation film for even better contrast and a cleaner white background. Most of our graphic and character LCD modules use FSTN glass with white LED backlighting.

Standard modules operate from 0°C to 50°C. Extended temperature modules are available with -20°C to 70°C operating range for industrial and outdoor applications.

Yes. Select 320x240 resolution models are available with integrated resistive touch panels (RTP) for interactive applications.

We offer configurations from 8x2 to 40x4, including 8x2, 16x1, 16x2, 16x4, 20x2, 20x4, 24x2, 40x2, and 40x4. All use a 5x8 dot matrix per character.

The Leadership Performance Series supports extended operating temperature ranges from -20C to 70C on the 2.4 inch model, and -30C to 80C on the 5, 7, and 10.1 inch models — suitable for harsh outdoor environments, industrial settings, and automotive applications.

The series currently includes 2.4 inch, 5 inch, 7 inch, and 10.1 inch models with resolutions from 240x320 up to 1280x800.

Yes. The combination of wide temperature range, high brightness (up to 1400 nits), and ruggedized construction makes LPS displays ideal for outdoor and harsh environment deployments.

The 2.4 inch model uses MCU interface, the 5 inch uses RGB, and the 7 inch and 10.1 inch models use LVDS.

SITO (Single ITO) patterns both X and Y electrodes on the same side of a single substrate, using conductive bridges where electrodes cross. DITO (Dual ITO) places X and Y electrodes on opposite sides of the substrate, eliminating the need for bridges. DITO provides excellent resolution at a lower cost compared to SITO.

Yes. Touch screens can integrate with US Micro Products TFT and OLED display modules, reducing sourcing complexity and streamlining production.

Standard tablets are catalog models with defined part numbers, published specifications, and datasheets you can evaluate today. Custom tablets are engineered around your requirements — custom enclosures, specialized I/O, locked-down operating system builds, and your branding — and follow a development program with tooling and non-recurring engineering. If a standard model meets your needs, it is the faster and less expensive path.

The standard lineup covers 10.1", 11", 11.97", 12.1", and 13.8" diagonal. All five models use IPS panels with in-cell touch. Full specifications for each part number, including resolution, brightness, and wireless capability, are listed in the product table on the standard tablets page.

All models in the current standard lineup ship on Android 14. If your application requires a locked-down Android build, a custom Linux distribution, or a Windows IoT configuration, that is handled through our custom tablet program.

Yes, to a point. Branding, accessories, docking, and some peripheral integration can often be addressed without a full custom development program. More significant changes — custom enclosures, specialized I/O, or custom board work — move into the custom tablet path. Our engineers can tell you which side of that line your requirements fall on.

The standard lineup is intended for general OEM, commercial, and light industrial use. If your application requires MIL-SPEC, IP-rated sealing, or a wide operating temperature range, our rugged tablet line is the appropriate starting point.

Submit a quote request with the part number you are interested in and your expected annual volume. If you are still narrowing down the model, tell us the panel size, resolution, and connectivity you need and our engineers will recommend the closest fit from the lineup.

A ruggedized display is a high-reliability display engineered to operate in harsh, demanding environments where a standard commercial panel would fail. It is not simply a tougher LCD. It is a complete display solution that combines the display module with protective cover glass, an engineered optical stack, mechanical reinforcement, thermal management, environmental sealing, and reliability testing. Ruggedized displays are built to withstand mechanical shock (typically 30G to 40G), sustained vibration (roughly 1.5 to 5 Grms), wide operating temperatures (-20°C to +60°C for industrial use and -40°C to +85°C for high-reliability applications), and exposure to dust, moisture, and direct sunlight. They commonly use chemically strengthened cover glass, anti-reflective (AR) and anti-glare (AG) treatments, and optical bonding for impact resistance and sunlight readability, paired with high-brightness backlights of 400 to 800 nits for industrial use and 1,000 to 1,500+ nits for outdoor, vehicle, and military applications. You will find them in rugged tablets, industrial computers, vehicle and transportation systems, military and aerospace equipment, field service tools, and other mission-critical systems. These figures represent typical industrial ranges; extreme environments such as aerospace, armored vehicles, and unmanned systems may require higher levels of reliability and durability. US Micro Products designs ruggedized displays and rugged tablets to the specific shock, temperature, sealing, and readability requirements of your application.

Start with the operating environment and the level of protection it demands, then work through durability, performance, connectivity, battery life, and any customization you need. Define the required IP rating first, such as IP65, IP67, or IP68, based on the tablet's exposure to dust and water, and confirm the applicable MIL-STD-810G or MIL-STD-810H test requirements if it will face drops, vibration, shock, or temperature extremes. Next, select the processor, memory, storage, display, and operating system for your workload, along with the interfaces the job requires, such as USB, Ethernet, RS-232/RS-485, CAN, Wi-Fi, 4G/5G, and GPS. Finally, evaluate the manufacturer's product lifecycle, technical support, customization capability, and mass-production capacity; for a fully custom program, weigh their hardware, software, mechanical design, testing, and production capabilities before deciding. US Micro Products can help match a standard or custom rugged tablet to your environment, interface, and lifecycle requirements.

The right IP rating depends on your application and how the display will be exposed to dust, water, cleaning, and other conditions. As a general guide, IP65 protects against dust and low-pressure water jets, IP67 protects against dust and temporary water immersion, and IP68 protects against dust and water immersion under specified test conditions. Define your real-world exposure first, and we can recommend the appropriate rating and validate it against the manufacturer's specified test conditions. For a custom rugged display, the target IP rating is set from your application requirements rather than a one-size-fits-all spec.

Our rugged tablets are designed to meet IP65 and higher ratings, providing protection against dust ingress and water jets. Specific ratings vary by model — consult the product specifications for details.

Rugged tablet models are designed for extended operating temperature ranges, typically -20°C to 60°C, with select models supporting wider ranges for extreme environment deployment.

Yes. We offer customization options including branded enclosures, custom I/O configurations, pre-loaded software, and application-specific peripheral integration.

Our open frame monitor catalog ranges from 7" to 43" diagonal, with resolutions from 1024x600 to 1920x1080.

Most models include capacitive touch (CTP) for multi-touch interaction. Select models are available with resistive touch (RTP) for applications requiring stylus or gloved input.

Standard modules operate from 0°C to 50°C. Extended temperature models are available with ranges from -30°C to 85°C for industrial and harsh environment applications.

A desktop monitor is a complete, enclosed product — housing, stand, and connectors included — designed to sit on a desk or mount to an arm and be used on its own. An open frame monitor is supplied as a bare panel and metal frame intended to be built into your own enclosure, kiosk, or machine. Choose a desktop monitor when the display stands alone, and an open frame monitor when it disappears into your product.

Yes. Alongside the standard desk stand, VESA mounting is available so the monitor can be fitted to monitor arms, poles, carts, wall plates, and equipment racks. Let us know the mounting pattern and hardware you plan to use and we will confirm compatibility before you order.

Yes. Desktop monitors can be configured with projected capacitive or resistive touch, or supplied as non-touch. The right choice depends on whether operators use gloves, how often the surface is cleaned, and whether the station is also driven by a keyboard and mouse.

Input options include HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA, and DVI. The specific inputs available vary by model, so tell us what the host PC, player, or controller outputs and we will confirm the right configuration for your system.

Yes, and this is worth discussing early. Commercial monitor models change frequently, so for equipment that will be built and serviced for years, we work with you on model selection, availability, and end-of-life planning so the same configuration stays supportable. Our EOL and last-time-buy support extends to monitors as well as displays.

Send us the screen size, resolution, touch requirement, video inputs, mounting method, and your expected annual volume. If any of those are still open, our engineers will help define them. Quantity and timing help us confirm availability and pricing.

Three things usually decide it: how the surface survives cleaning, how the display behaves in low and diffused light, and how long the exact configuration stays available. Clinical monitors use cover glass that tolerates repeated ethanol wipe-downs, IPS panels with wide viewing angles so a team can read the same screen from different positions, and a managed lifecycle so a device you qualified today can still be built years from now. A commercial monitor is not specified around any of those.

US Micro Products is a display component supplier, not a medical device manufacturer, so certification of the finished device belongs to you as the OEM. What we do is design and document the display to support that effort — including EMI measures such as conductive coatings, wire mesh, and EMI gaskets for IEC 60601 consideration — and supply the specifications, test reports, and traceability records your submission and supplier qualification require. Tell us the standards your device is being certified to and we will confirm what we can support.

Yes. Projected capacitive touch can be tuned to register a touch through latex gloves and to keep working when there are fluids or blood on the screen. The cover glass can be specified with AG/AR anti-reflective coating and ethanol agent-durable treatment so routine disinfecting does not haze or degrade the surface. Tell us your cleaning protocol and glove type and we will match the touch stack to it.

This is worth raising early. Medical device lifecycles commonly run 7 to 15+ years while commercial panel models change far more often, so we plan availability with you at the design stage rather than after a part goes end of life. That includes model selection, last-time-buy planning, and formal change notification. Our EOL and last-time-buy program covers monitors as well as displays.

Our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system and documentation practices are built to support medical device companies qualifying us as a supplier. That includes complete material specifications, test reports, and traceability records compatible with FDA Design Controls (21 CFR 820), full lot traceability from raw material through finished assembly, and a formal change notification process. Send us your supplier qualification package and we will work through it with you.

Send us the screen size, resolution, brightness, touch and glove requirement, cleaning protocol, interface, and mounting method, along with your expected annual volume and program life. If some of those are still open, our engineers will help define them. Quantity and timing let us confirm availability and pricing against your build schedule.

It is a finished unit rather than a component. Instead of sourcing a display, a driver board, a touch panel, cabling, and an enclosure separately and assembling them yourself, the whole stack is integrated and delivered as one product — assembled, tested, configured, and packaged ready for end-user deployment. In manufacturing terms this is box build: enclosures, cables, displays, and accessories brought together under a single process flow and a single bill of materials.

They sit at different levels of integration. A smart display is a display module with an onboard controller, intended to be built into your own product. An open frame monitor is a panel and frame designed to be mounted inside your enclosure. An all-in-one system is the finished article — display, electronics, cabling, and enclosure together — so there is no further assembly step on your side. Which one is right usually comes down to whether you are building the housing or we are.

We support volumes from prototype quantities through high-volume production. Our manufacturing network scales from dozens of units for specialized applications to thousands for volume runs, so an all-in-one system does not need to start at a high commitment to be viable. Tell us your expected annual volume and program life and we will confirm what makes sense.

Yes. We regularly integrate customer-supplied components, third-party modules, and specialized assemblies into finished products. If part of the system is already specified or already sourced, that can be carried into the build rather than replaced. We also provide complete component sourcing, including obsolescence management and quality assurance through our global supply chain relationships.

Functional testing, environmental testing, burn-in, and custom test development. Test protocols are developed specific to your product requirements and industry standards, and our quality processes cover incoming inspection, in-process testing, and final verification meeting medical device, automotive, and military standards.

Send us the display size and resolution you have in mind, the touch requirement, the interface, the enclosure and mounting approach, and the environment the system will operate in, along with your expected annual volume and program life. If some of those are still open, our engineers will help define them — early DFM review is part of how we keep the build cost-effective.

It comes down to who builds the final product. A system is an integrated display subsystem — display, touch, cover glass, driver board, housing, and cabling qualified as one assembly — that you then install into your own product. An all-in-one system is the finished article, delivered as a complete deployable unit with nothing left to assemble on your side. If you own the end product and need the display portion solved as a single qualified block, a system is usually the right fit.

We provide integration services for displays from 1-inch micro displays through large format displays. Our capabilities scale to match size requirements while maintaining optical and mechanical performance.

Integration solutions can achieve IP54 through IP67 depending on the application. We also provide solutions meeting MIL-STD environmental requirements for military applications. The rating achievable depends on the housing approach, sealing method, and thermal requirements, so it is worth confirming early with our engineers.

Yes — shape cutting, edge processing, hole drilling, and specialty coatings. Cover glass can be chemically strengthened up to 4x standard strength, with anti-reflective and anti-glare treatments, and is optimized for your specific application requirements.

Standard integration solutions typically require 4–6 weeks. Custom optical bonding and housing solutions may require 8–12 weeks. Lead time depends on the complexity of the housing, the bonding process, and whether tooling is required.

We support membrane switch, silicone rubber, metal dome, and capacitive keypad constructions. The right choice depends on the tactile feel you want, the operating environment, cleaning requirements, and how the keypad integrates with the rest of the front panel.

Yes. Keypads are frequently combined with displays, touch panels, and trackballs into a single front-panel assembly, so the mechanical fit, sealing, and cabling are resolved as one design rather than as separate parts.

Useful starting points include the key count and layout, the enclosure or panel drawing, the tactile feel you expect, backlighting needs, sealing and environmental requirements, connector and pinout preference, and your annual volume and timing. Our engineers can help define anything still open.

Some constructions require tooling for molded keys or shaped parts, while others are primarily a printing and lamination process. Tooling requirements, non-recurring engineering, and minimum order quantities are reviewed with you as part of the quote.

In many cases, yes. Send us the existing part, drawing, or the equipment it goes into and our engineering team will review whether it can be matched or whether a functionally equivalent design is the better path — this is a common request for legacy and end-of-life equipment.

Our Engineered Display Solutions Process (EDSP) is a three-step process. Step 1: Technology Selection — we explore your requirements and application options, assign the right technology, and verify the fit. Step 2: Design — we determine the complexity of the project, make recommendations, implement the design, and order working samples for prototyping. Step 3: Manufacturing — Engineering Validation Test (EVT), Design Validation Test (DVT), Production Validation Test (PVT), and then mass production.

Different applications require different displays. Size, shape, strength, brightness, operating environment, interface, and touch requirements all affect the right selection. When a standard product does not fit the specification, we can evaluate targeted modifications or a more complete custom design.

US Micro Products can design and customize a broad range of display technologies, including PMOLED and AMOLED displays as well as passive and active matrix LCD panels. Our display engineers help match the right technology to your application and tailor size, shape, brightness, interface, and touch as part of a custom engineered display design.

Yes. Our display engineers can review your application requirements, guide the design process, and recommend an appropriate path for performance, cost, and manufacturability.

No. Our involvement continues after mass production. We handle logistics and deliver products worldwide. We work directly with OEMs and contract manufacturers to support each step of the supply chain.

Surface reflections come from the change in refractive index at each air-to-glass boundary between your eyes and the pixels, so the most effective solutions treat those boundaries. Several approaches can be used on their own or in combination: (1) Anti-reflective (AR) coating — a multi-layer optical coating that uses destructive interference to cut surface reflectance from roughly 4% per surface to well under 1%, while keeping the image sharp. (2) Anti-glare (AG) treatment — an etched or coated matte surface that scatters reflected light so a hard glare source becomes a soft haze; it trades a small amount of clarity for far less mirror-like reflection. (3) Optical bonding — filling the air gap between the cover glass or touch panel and the LCD with an optically clear adhesive removes the internal air-to-glass reflections entirely. This is usually the single biggest improvement for sunlight-readable and high-ambient-light environments, and it also increases contrast and ruggedness. (4) Circular polarizers and low-reflective coatings on the touch or cover glass for additional glare control. US Micro Products can help specify surface treatments, films and optical bonding as part of a custom engineered display design to match your application's readability and application requirements.

Consider a custom display when a standard product does not meet your optical, mechanical, electrical, environmental, or lifecycle requirements. Many projects begin with a catalog product and move to targeted modifications once the application requirements are clear.

Start with your application requirements: display size range, resolution needs, brightness, interface preference, environmental conditions, touch requirements, mechanical constraints, volume expectations, and timing. If any details are still undecided, our engineers can help clarify them.

We customize virtually every aspect of a display: panel size and shape, brightness, cover glass (material, coatings, printing), interface, touch integration, FPC routing, backlight, optical bonding, bezel design, and environmental enhancements like heaters and EMI shielding. If you need something not listed, contact us.

We proactively monitor our supply chain for EOL notices. When a panel or component reaches EOL, we identify replacement options, validate compatibility, and manage the transition. Reliable availability and stable pricing are core to how we operate.

Custom PMOLED displays range from 0.5 inch to 5.9 inches diagonal. The largest resolution currently available is 256x64 or 160x128. Most PMOLED applications are under 3 inches.

PMOLED lifetime is shortened at really high temperatures, so modifying the temperature range is generally not recommended. However, heaters can be added for low temperature operation to ensure the display performs in cold environments.

Standard PMOLED interfaces include 8080, SPI, and I2C. Custom connector types and PIN assignments are available to match your system architecture.

High resolution, rich colors, true blacks, wide viewing angles, high contrast, fast response time, very thin profile, good sunlight readability, and low power consumption.

Higher cost compared to LCD and PMOLED, high cost for customizations, and currently limited to smaller sizes. AMOLEDs are more complicated and expensive to fabricate.

Custom AMOLED displays range from 0.39 inch to 6 inches diagonal, with resolutions up to 3840x2160 UHD. Shapes include round, rectangle, and square.

Good display quality, high brightness, competitive cost, and multiple customizations available. TFT is the most versatile display technology for a wide range of applications.

TN (Twisted Nematic), VA (Vertical Alignment), and IPS (In-Plane Switching). TN is positive image, IPS and VA are negative. Each offers different viewing angle, contrast, and cost characteristics.

RGB, TTL, LVDS, MIPI, MDDI, and V-by-one. Custom connector types (soldering, ACF bonding, connector) and PIN assignments available.

Yes. We integrate AD boards with DVI, VGA, VA, DP, S-video, and USB input for applications that need standard video input conversion.

A passive LCD has a grid of wires with an LCD element at each intersection. A TFT (active matrix) has a transistor on each pixel, allowing more contrast, higher resolution, and faster response time. Passive LCDs are lower cost and ideal for simpler display needs.

TN (Twisted Nematic), STN (Super Twisted Nematic), FSTN (Film-compensated STN), and VATN (Vertical Alignment TN). Each offers different contrast, viewing angle, and cost characteristics.

Round, rectangle, square, and multiple cut shapes. Passive LCD glass can be cut to a wide variety of custom shapes.

Yes. We provide PCB assemblies and integrated solutions that include the display, motherboard, and housing. Our EMS services include Surface Mount Technology (SMT), Chip On Board (COB), sub-assemblies, and box build services.

Yes. We can provide you with cost-effective integration of your display to an open frame monitor, housing, bonding onto glass or the complete assembly of your product.

Yes. US Micro Products provides inventory management services, including safety stock and end-of-life inventory support for manufacturing programs.

US Micro Products provides kitting and assembly services to support manufacturing, fulfillment, and production requirements.

Displays typically have a 2- to 5-year lifecycle, with longer support possible for industrial, military, or medical applications. When a display approaches end of life, US Micro Products issues a last-time-buy notice and helps identify a suitable replacement.

Unfortunately, this is not a service that we provide. We manufacture displays in batches for OEM applications and do not offer repair services for consumer products where the display has gone out or is broken.
