PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free)
What is Image Retention ?
Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal conditions.
Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the LCD panel is operated
for a long time with a fixed pattern (over 12 hours), there may be slight difference in voltage between
electrodes that work the liquid crystal (LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes
increases with time, forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs,
the previous image may be seen when the pattern is changed. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage
difference must be decreased.
