This will enable designers to use the single backlight source to indicate status very clearly, rather than a single colour backlight that is simply on or off.
Dual Status Profiled Backlights provide a clean, bright and clear illumination for a display to ensure the machine-human interface is easy to understand and can be used in multiple applications and industries, including harsh environment applications and in research, instrumentation and medical applications.
Benefits of Dual Status Profile Backlights can be found where colour backlights have not previously been a practical solution for displays, as they solve the additional cost and reliability issues around adding multiple LEDs to a backlight cost-effectively when custom dimensions are required.
Dual Status Profiled Backlights are easy to drive, take up less space in a design and provide a cost-effective solution, even for small to medium volume requirements. The two colours indicate status very clearly and provide a way to attract attention even from an oblique angle. Temperature status is a common application, where the use of a red LED emitter alongside a green LED emitter, enables a fast “switch to red” warning.
Dual Status Profiled Backlights have individually addressable LED emitters, and available colours range through ultrabright blue, four greens, three yellows, orange, three reds and ultrabright white.
