PICVUE - FAST COLOR DISPLAYS FOR EVERYONE

PICVUE ELECTRONICS WAS FOUNDED IN 1970 WITH HEADQUARTERS IN TAIWAN. TODAY, THE COMPANY OFFERS A BROAD PALLET OF CSTN AND TFT COLOR DISPLAYS IN ADDITION TO MONOCHROME CHARACTER AND GRAPHIC DISPLAYS.



The PICVUE Electronics head office and main production facilities are located in Hsinchu, which places the company at the center of the "Taiwanese Silicon Valley". PICVUE is both ISO9001:2000 and ISO14001 certified.

PICVUE's color display lineup comprises three different technology areas, making it one of the few manufacturers to cover virtually all market applications.

NEW HSP TECHNOLOGY: 7 TIMES FASTER!

PICVUE developed HSP technology for passive CSTN displays, to enable the running of videos. The new HSP technology allows the display of visual media 7 times faster than with conventional CSTNs, and uses less power than TFTs.





PICVUE TFT PRODUCTS

In the area of transmissive s-Si TFT displays, PICVUE currently offers two products that focus on the mobile boom: a size 1.1" display and another in size 2.0".

PICVUE has furthermore made it a priority to adapt its TFT product portfolio to match its CSTN technology offering over the next few months.

And that means TFT displays in sizes through 7" will soon be in series production. The following PICVUE TFT roadmap provides more information:
