LMG7421PLBC KOE 5.1 inch 240×128 lcd display screens
LMG7421PLBC is a classic 5.1-inch monochrome STN-LCD liquid crystal module originally developed and manufactured by Hitachi Ltd., later produced by KOE (JDI Group). Based on the official industrial specification (released in 2002), this panel features a 17:9 wide aspect ratio, 50 PPI pixel density, and blue mode negative transmissive display, delivering stable text and graphic performance for industrial applications.
It adopts STN (Super Twisted Nematic) technology, providing 40°/40°/40°/40° viewing angles (CR≥2). The panel uses a single CCFL backlight system without integrated driver, offering a typical brightness of 150 cd/m² and a lifespan of 10,000 hours. With a compact design of 159.4×101×11.0 mm and parallel 8-bit data interface, it is widely used as a replacement panel for older industrial control systems and medical equipment.
