NEC NL10276AC30-04L | Industrial XGA Display with Unrivaled Durability and Optical Performance
The NEC NL10276AC30-04L is not just another display; it's a testament to engineering excellence designed for applications where failure is not an option. This 15-inch XGA panel represents a legacy of reliability, offering a robust solution for industrial and medical systems that demand consistent, high-quality visual performance over an extended operational life. It masterfully balances advanced optical characteristics with the ruggedness required for challenging environments.
Engineered for Visual Clarity and Longevity
At the core of the NL10276AC30-04L's superior performance are several key technological choices that differentiate it from consumer-grade displays. These features are not just specifications on a datasheet; they are solutions to real-world engineering problems.
- Super-Advanced Fine TFT (S-AFT) Technology: This proprietary technology is NEC's advanced implementation of In-Plane Switching (IPS). It ensures exceptionally wide viewing angles (80/80/80/80) and high color fidelity. For an HMI operator or a medical technician, this means critical data is legible and color-correct from virtually any angle, minimizing errors and improving workflow efficiency.
- Extended Operating Temperature Range: With an operating range of -10°C to +70°C, this display is built to perform reliably in environments where standard displays would fail. This thermal resilience makes the NEC NL10276AC30-04L an ideal choice for unheated factory floors, outdoor-adjacent control panels, and portable diagnostic equipment.
- Long-Life White LED Backlight System: Moving beyond legacy CCFL technology, this panel integrates a durable LED backlight. This not only reduces power consumption but also dramatically extends the unit's operational lifetime and enhances its resistance to shock and vibration. The result is a lower total cost of ownership and significantly reduced maintenance requirements.
Proven Performance in Demanding Applications
The specific engineering of the NL10276AC30-04L makes it a premier choice across several critical sectors. Its features directly translate to tangible value in the field.
- Industrial Automation & HMI: In manufacturing and process control, clarity and reliability are paramount. The panel's high contrast and robust construction ensure that operators have a clear, dependable interface for monitoring and controlling complex machinery. This is crucial for engineering displays in heavy machinery where uptime is measured in thousands of dollars per hour.
- Medical Diagnostic Systems: The color accuracy and consistency delivered by S-AFT technology are vital for non-diagnostic viewing applications in the medical field, such as patient monitoring and equipment interfaces. The display’s stable performance instills confidence in the equipment it's built into.
- Test & Measurement Equipment: Precision instruments require displays that can render detailed graphical data without distortion. The 1024x768 XGA resolution and stable LVDS interface provide a clean, high-fidelity window into critical measurements.

Expert Insights: NL10276AC30-04L FAQ
Why is the LVDS interface a critical feature for this display?
The LVDS Interface (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling) is an industrial-grade standard chosen for its exceptional noise immunity. In environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference (EMI), such as those with large motors or power converters, LVDS maintains signal integrity over longer cable distances. This ensures a stable, flicker-free image, which is essential for the reliable operation of the entire system.
Is this model a superior choice compared to older CCFL-backlit panels?
Absolutely. The NL10276AC30-04L represents a significant technological upgrade. Its integrated LED backlight offers lower power consumption, a mercury-free design, and instant full-brightness performance in cold conditions. Most importantly, the LED backlight system has a much longer operational lifespan, which directly translates to enhanced system reliability and a lower total cost of ownership, making it an ideal component for new designs and a strategic upgrade for legacy systems.
