  • Publication number: 20070029915
    Abstract: A light-generating unit includes at least one light source group and a power supply module. The light source group includes a plurality of light sources each emitting a light of a different color from each other and each having a different effective light-emitting area from each other, so as to generate a white light including a mixture of lights emitted from the light sources. The power supply module applies one driving voltage to the light sources. Thus, a white light having a desired wavelength distribution may be generated while one driving voltage is applied to the light sources of the light-generating unit.

  • Publication number: 20060291240
    Abstract: A backlight assembly supplies a guided light to a display panel having a main display part on which a main image is selectively displayed, and a sub display part on which a sub image is constantly displayed. The backlight assembly includes a light source and a light guiding unit. The light source generates a light. The light guiding unit includes a light incident surface, a light exiting surface, and a corresponding surface. The light from the light source is incident into the light incident surface. The light exiting surface has a main region and a sub region, the sub region having an optical pattern increasing a luminance of the light. The guided light exits the light exiting surface. The corresponding surface corresponds to the light exiting surface. A luminance uniformity and a luminance when viewed on a plane are increased.

  • Publication number: 20060114692
    Abstract: In a two-way backlight assembly and a two-way LCD apparatus, the two-way backlight assembly provides light emitted from one light source to a first direction where a main LCD panel is placed and to a second direction where a sub LCD panel is placed. Also, a sub mold part for receiving the sub LCD panel comprises a black-colored material so as to prevent reflection of the light. Accordingly, thickness and power consumption of the backlight assembly may be reduced and display quality may be also improved by preventing leakage of the light at ends of the sub LCD panel.

  • Publication number: 20060044828
    Abstract: A display device is provided. The display device includes a main display panel, a sub-display panel, and a plurality of lamps simultaneously supplying light to the first and second display panels; an openness sensing unit in which an output signal is defined based on a degree of openness of the display device; and a lamp controlling unit selecting one of the display panels based on the output signal from the openness sensing unit and defining the number of lamps to be turned on based on the selected display panel, and supplying the light to the main and sub-display panels by lighting the defined number of lamps. In one embodiment, the display device is a display device for a mobile phone, and the lamps are light emitting diodes. Accordingly, the number of lamps to be turned on is varied based on the selected display panel, and consumption power therefore decreases.

  • Patent number: 6970345
    Abstract: Disclosed is a solid electrolytic capacitor, wherein a capacitor element has a front surface from which an anode lead wire is protruded. A cathode layer is formed on an outer surface of the capacitor element. A flat-shaped cathode lead frame is surface-contacted with an entire rear surface of the capacitor element. A flat-shaped anode lead frame has a concave portion formed at a central end portion thereof, in which the anode lead wire of the capacitor element is seated and electrically connected to the concave portion. A mold is formed to surround the capacitor element, to partially surround the anode lead frame, and to contact a face of the cathode lead frame which is surface-contacted with the capacitor element.

  • Patent number: 6512668
    Abstract: A tantalum chip capacitor with a cut-grooved anode lead frame is disclosed. The cut-grooved lead frame is designed to allow the tantalum element set in the small-sized epoxy mold package of the capacitor to have a desired size, thus restricting an increase in impedance of the tantalum chip capacitor regardless of a reduction in the size of the package according to the recent trend of smallness of the tantalum chip capacitors. This tantalum chip capacitor has a tantalum element, a anode lead wire extending from the tantalum element, and a cathode lead frame attached at its inside end to the tantalum element and forming a mounting terminal at its outside end. The cut-grooved anode lead frame is welded at its inside end to the lead wire while overlapping a part of the lead wire at the inside end having the cut groove. This anode lead frame also forms a mounting terminal at its outside end.
