New Arrivals — Vol. 2026 Q1 | Four TFT-LCD Modules for Industrial Applications

Every quarter, the team works on refining what we already make and adding what the market needs. This Q1 2026 release is a mix of both — three upgraded modules that address real feedback from the field, and one new addition built for IPC and HMI platforms that needed a reliable, cost-effective XGA option. Here’s a closer look at what’s in this release.

Upgraded

12.1″  ·  1000 nit  ·  HMI / Industrial

This upgrade focuses on structure and cost. The original glass FOG has been replaced with in-house HSD glass FOG, and the FPC has been redesigned to a PCBA structure. The LCD FPCB layout has also been optimised to bring down BOM cost without compromising performance — a practical improvement for customers building at volume.

Upgraded

10.1″  ·  1000 nit  ·  Industrial Grade

The key change here is the power management IC. The previous IC had stability issues during rapid or repeated power cycling — something that shows up quickly in industrial environments where equipment is switched on and off frequently. The upgraded IC resolves this, improving voltage response stability in those exact conditions.

Upgraded

2.9″  ·  1000 / 1500 nit  ·  High Brightness Series

Two new brightness tiers for the 2.9″ format, both sharing the same mechanical footprint and interface as the existing S029HQ05NS — so existing designs need no hardware changes. The ES hits 1000 nit with a DBEF + dual film backlight stack. The FS pushes to an estimated 1500 nit using the same configuration at a higher drive level. Both are drop-in upgrades for applications that need more headroom in bright ambient conditions.

New

12.1″  ·  500 nit  ·  XGA  ·  IPC / HMI

A new addition to the 12.1″ lineup, this one targeting IPC and HMI applications that don’t need high brightness but do need a reliable, well-specified module with a free viewing direction. XGA resolution at 1024 × 768 suits legacy software environments and control interfaces where widescreen formats aren’t required. Normally Black IPS panel, LVDS interface, and a wide operating temperature range make it a practical choice for indoor industrial deployments.
