Overview

TCON (timing controller), normally located on the circuit board below the glass panel, is the only active component inside a TFT-LCD. TCON plays a key role in the control and correction of brightness (HDR), color, touch, refresh rate, and power savings.

Typical Uses

The controller module collects original video data (e.g., frame size, frame rate, RGB, voltage, and current) from the TCON circuit board, transmits it to the PC via USB 3.0 and high-speed network ports, and automatically determines the operational integrity of the TCON circuit board under test.

• High-speed SerDes, 16 lanes, up to 16.3 Gbps per lane
• Captures raw video data (RGB-LVDS) and control signals from the TCON board and transmits them to the PC via Gigabit Ethernet
• Customizable interfaces of TCON board: LVDS, HS-LVDS, V-by-One HS
• Customizable interfaces of LCD panel: Mini-LVDS, MIPI, EPI, MDDI

Features

•  4K high-resolution frame capture
• Frame analysis (frame size, frame rate, frame loss, etc.)
• Frame buffer, frame recovery, ROI detection
• Gigabit Ethernet, with transmission speeds up to 3 FPS
