Sony Releases OLED Microdisplay with Over 3,000 PPI

Sony Semiconductor Solutions has released the ECX335B OLED Microdisplay.

According to a press release from electronics supplier Framos of Munich, the ECX335B is a small, 0.71″ (1.8cm) diagonal active matrix color OLED panel module based on single crystal silicon substrate and provides a Full HD RGB resolution of 1920 x 1080 dots (3,102 PPI). The display has a wide color gamut with a contrast ratio of 100,000:1, a short response time of microsecond order, a 24-bit colour depth and maximum luminance of 500cd/m². Dr. Silviu Grecu from Framos explained the fields of applications which benefit from the OLED Microdisplay:

“With its small package, high speed and brightness, Sony Semiconductor Solutions’ ECX335B display is suitable for many potential applications using micro-sized displays in both industrial and consumer electronics. It is especially recommended as an electronic view finder in broadcasting and consumer cameras or for greater visual impact in 3D head-mounted devices for augmented and virtual reality. The ECX335B display provides natural colour reproduction and superior moving picture quality. High-precision binoculars and monocular devices benefit in addition”.

Framos claims the ECX335B OLED Microdisplay allows the additional information layer to appear seamlessly, simply added to the background for a “real AR” experience. They go on to say that, with no colour breakup, the ECX335B produces high visibility of the additional layer with crisp, clear images, without blurring.

The small package footprint claims to allow wearables to be produced in a more compact form and reduced weight, for increased usability and wearing convenience.
