Note1: The LED driving condition is defined for each LED module (1 LED Serial, 4LED Parallel).
Note2: Under LCM operating, the stable forward current should be inputted. And forward voltage is for reference only.
Note3: Optical performance should be evaluated at Ta=25 ℃ only If LED is driven by high current, high ambient
temperature & humidity condition. The life time of LED will be reduced. Operating life means brightness goes down to
50% initial brightness. Typical operating life time is estimated data.At the same time the luminance of Backlight would
decrease under the hight temperature.
Note4: The LED driving condition is defined for each LED module.
