Abstract: This invention provides a method and apparatus for driving bistable cholesteric liquid crystal displays. The method and apparatus provided a display in which all the pixels are initially driven to the P state. Selected pixels for the display are then driven to the FC state to provide the desired message. The state of the pixels is then maintained for a viewing period prior to any resetting of the display to the P state. The switching from the P state to the FC state allows fast addressing times and lower voltages to be used in driving the display.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to LED packages and methods utilizing waterproof and UV resistant packages with improved structural integrity. In some embodiments, the improved structural integrity is provided by various features in the lead frame that the casing material encompasses to improve the adhesion between the lead frame and the casing for a stronger, waterproof package. Moreover, in some embodiments the improved structural integrity and waterproofing is further provided by improved adhesion between the encapsulant and the casing. Some embodiments also provide for improved wire bonds, with the length, thickness, and loop height of the wire bonds controlled and optimized for improved adhesion between the wire bonds and the encapsulant as well as improved reliability.

Abstract: One embodiment of the surface mount LED package includes a lead frame and a plastic casing at least partially encasing the lead frame. The lead frame includes a plurality of electrically conductive chip carriers. There is an LED disposed on each one of the plurality of electrically conductive chip carriers. A profile height of the surface mount LED package is less than about 1.0 mm.

Abstract: An optical film includes a hard coating layer, an anti-glare layer, a first adhesive layer, and a second adhesive layer. The hard coating layer is a hard and transparent material, and the anti-glare layer is adhered on a first side of the hard coating layer. The first adhesive layer is adhered on one side of the anti-glare layer away from the hard coating layer, and the second adhesive layer is adhered on a second side of the hard coating layer opposite to the first side. A thickness of the optical film can be 0.19˜0.23 mm. The present disclosure further provides a display module using the optical film.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display (200) includes a transparent substrate (25), a light guide plate (28) disposed under the substrate, and a light source (29) disposed above the light guide plate at a thin side of the substrate. The light guide plate includes a top surface (280). An area of the top surface corresponding to the light source defines a light incident area, and another area of the top surface corresponding to the substrate defines a light emitting area.

Abstract: An exemplary liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel (10), a light guide plate (12) located below the liquid crystal panel, an illuminator (16) located adjacent a side of the light guide plate, and an electrical connector (15) attached to a side of the light guide plate and receiving the illuminator therein. The illuminator is mechanically attached to the electrical connector, and contact points of the illuminator are in direct physical and electrical connection with corresponding contact points of the electrical connector.
