⚠️ Crucial Technical Notice: Open Cell (No Backlight)
Please read carefully before ordering:
This HM236WU3-100 is an Open Cell LCD Panel, meaning it is the liquid crystal glass matrix with the T-CON board, but it DOES NOT include the LED backlight strips or diffuser sheets (Brightness is 0 nits out of the box).
How to use it: You must pair this panel with a compatible 23.6-inch LED backlight unit (BLU) and a monitor driver board to light up the screen.
Need a full assembly? If you are looking for a complete 23.6" monitor screen with the backlight already installed, please contact our sales team for a custom kitting quote.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What exactly is an "Open Cell" LCD panel?
An Open Cell refers to the LCD glass matrix and the attached T-CON (Timing Controller) board, but without the backlight unit (LED strips, reflectors, and diffuser films) and the metal chassis. It is typically purchased by monitor manufacturers or advanced repair shops who have their own backlight assemblies or are harvesting parts from broken monitors with cracked screens but working backlights.
Can I use the BOE HM236WU3-100 to fix my broken 23.6" monitor?
Yes, if your original monitor's screen is cracked but the internal LED backlight strips are still working, you can carefully disassemble the broken panel, transfer the backlight strips and diffuser sheets to this new HM236WU3-100 Open Cell, and reassemble it. This is a highly cost-effective way to repair expensive 23.6-inch FHD monitors.
