New range of 2.8-inch QVGA TFT panels offered with low minimum order quantities

AndersDX has launched a new range of 2.8-inch diagonal QVGA TFT panels available with low minimum order quantities (MOQs), following the negotiation of an exclusive agreement with an Asian supplier. Commenting, Paul Hooper, European sales manager, AndersDX, said: "We have identified that competitors are either discontinuing or applying large MOQs to this size. Whilst some customers are indeed migrating to larger sizes, our competitors move is in our view premature, and leaves smaller customers with established products exposed. They face an unpalatable choice between committing to taking a large stock with the associated cash flow implications or redesigning their product." "Using our close relationships with key suppliers, we have responded by negotiating an agreement under which they will commit to tooling for this display size and format. As a result, we can continue to supply the market with minimum order quantities of just 1000 pieces. This is a great example of the kind of pro-active support that a strong display specialist is able to offer the market." The 2.8-inch diagonal QVGA TFT panels are offered with or without a touch screen overlay. The displays themselves draw just 4mA from a 3V power supply. The LED backlight is powered from a 13.2V supply and draws 20mA. The company can customise the modules and offer bezels and other components to help ensure an appropriate fit in an existing display aperture.
