Sharp LQ150X1LX96 | Industrial-Grade XGA Display with ASV Wide-Angle Technology
The Sharp LQ150X1LX96 is a 15.0-inch XGA TFT-LCD engineered not just for display, but for performance under pressure. Designed for industrial and mission-critical applications, this panel delivers exceptional visual clarity, rock-solid reliability, and an operational envelope that far exceeds standard commercial displays. It is the ideal human-machine interface (HMI) solution for complex control systems, medical diagnostics, and demanding outdoor environments where failure is not an option.
Application-Specific Value Across Industries
The true value of the Sharp LQ150X1LX96 emerges when its features are mapped to real-world challenges. This display isn't a generic component; it's a problem-solver.
- Industrial Automation & HMI: In a busy factory, operators need to monitor controls from multiple angles. The ASV technology provides consistent, distortion-free images from wide viewing perspectives, while the high 800-nit brightness cuts through ambient glare from high-bay lighting, ensuring critical data is always readable.
- Medical Imaging & Diagnostics: The exceptional 1500:1 contrast ratio is paramount for rendering subtle grayscale variations in medical scans like X-rays and ultrasounds. This level of detail empowers clinicians to make more confident and accurate diagnoses. Its long-term availability is also crucial for devices with long certification and product life cycles.
- Marine & Transportation Systems: Bridge controls and in-vehicle displays face extreme temperature swings. With an operating range of -30°C to +80°C, the LQ150X1LX96 eliminates the need for complex and costly external heating or cooling systems, simplifying design and enhancing system reliability. For added resilience against moisture and salt spray, system integrators can apply a conformal coating.
- Outdoor Kiosks and Digital Signage: Sunlight readability is a primary challenge for outdoor displays. The combination of high brightness and anti-glare surface treatment ensures that information remains crisp and visible even in direct daylight.
Technical Deep Dive: Core Technology Advantages
Two key technologies set the Sharp LQ150X1LX96 apart from the competition:
Advanced Super View (ASV) Technology
Functionally equivalent to high-end IPS (In-Plane Switching) panels, Sharp's proprietary ASV technology aligns liquid crystals horizontally. This eliminates the off-axis color and contrast shifts common in older TN panels. For the user, this means color fidelity and image clarity are maintained even when viewing the screen from extreme angles—a critical feature for multi-person viewing or dynamic operator positions.
Extreme Temperature WLED Backlight System
The panel integrates a robust White LED backlight system specifically designed for longevity and performance in harsh thermal conditions. This system is driven by specialized high-voltage ICs that ensure stable brightness and a 70,000-hour rated lifetime, significantly reducing maintenance cycles and total cost of ownership for your equipment.
