Chapter 1 - Introduction

Description

The CPX2-173 is a military-grade high-performance 6U rack mount or panel mount LCD display offering 1920 x

1080 wide-screen high-definition resolution. The CPX2-173 is designed to meet Mil-Std 901D and MIL-STD-

810G and includes a solid milled aluminum front panel, lightweight 5052-H32 aluminum construction and locking

stainless hardware throughout. The CPX2-173 is ideal for mounting in a transit case for adverse environments

that would destroy lesser displays.

Two versions offer standard brightness or hi-bright for sunlight visibility.

Table 1 – Display Specifications

The displays are high-performance, long life TFT LCD’s offering a maximum native wide-screen resolution of

1920 x 1080. The displays offer optional optically bonded anti-reflective overlay glass. In addition, an optional

laminated 1.1mm soda lime glass with an ITO conductive EMI filter and an additional 1.1mm soda lime glass

overlay with anti-reflective (AR) coating. Both glass components are optically bonded to each other, and to the

front of the display, for superior viewing clarity and overall ruggedness. A 6mm copper bus bar surrounds the

entire glass stack-up and provides consistent grounding. A contrast ratio of approximately 1300:1 is delivered

with this ITO/Anti-Reflective glass stack-up. The front surface is an oleophobic anti-reflective coating resistant to

fingerprints.

The displays offer 16.7 million colors (True Color). The displays provide multiple signal input options including

aRGB, DVI-D, HDMI, Display Port, HD-SDI, NTSC, S-Video and Composite Video, depending on the controller.

The displays offer a choice of high quality advanced scaling controllers with a Genesis chipset. These are

specifically ruggedized controllers offering as standard conformal coating with high shock/vibration and

temperature extreme tolerances as well as long life product availability for assured delivery throughout multi-year

programs.

The Standard Controller offers DVI-D, VGA (aRGB), HDMI, NTSC, S-Video and CVS with an option for

Component (YCbCr) input. In addition, the Standard Controller supports Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and Picture-By-

Picture.

The Advanced HD-SDI Controller offers VGA (aRGB), HDMI, Display Port, HD-SDI and 3G HD-SDI.

The display is only 6U (10.47-inches) high offering significant rack space savings. It can be rack mounted, panel

mounted, or mounted using a VESA adapter via the included VESA hole pattern on the rear of the unit. It is only

3.2-inches deep and power and signal cables exit down so as to not increase depth requirements.

As with all Chassis Plans products, a wide variety of custom options can be configured per customer or

application specific requirements. Contact your Sales Engineer to discuss your particular requirements.

LCD Enhancements

Chassis Plans starts with Grade A Industrial Quality LCD panels selected for optical performance, high reliability

and long product life cycle. In order to not only ruggedize the LCD, but to also enhance the mechanical, optical

and EMI properties of the finished unit, as an option, Chassis Plans optically bonds one 3mm anti-reflective or

two layers of coated 1.1 mm soda-lime float glass to the front of the LCD panel. The first layer is coated with an

Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coating with a surface resistivity of <13.5 ohms/sq. See Figure 1 for attenuation values.

Figure 1 – EMI Shielding Effectiveness of ITO Coating

There is a Copper conductive buss bar that wraps around the edge of the glass to facilitate conduction from the

ITO coating to the front surface of the laminated structure to make a complete electrical shield around the face of

the LCD. See Figure 2 for details.

Figure 2 – Optical Stack on LCD

The second layer of glass is coated with an Oleophobic Anti-Reflective (AR) coating which matches the index of

refraction of air to eliminate surface reflections. These layers of coated glass are bonded together with an index

matching optical adhesive to eliminate internal reflections caused by the index of refraction mismatch between

the soda lime glass and air. This eliminates over 95% of unwanted glare from the screen. Please see Figure 3

below for more details.

Figure 3 – Comparison of Reflections with and without Optical Bonding

The resulting structure in conjunction with the CPX2-1732 Hi-Bright 1000nit panel has greatly enhanced optical

characteristics in high ambient light conditions. The optical adhesive used is a silicone RTV and offers other

benefits mechanically to the LCD as well. The adhesive remains pliable and therefore acts as a shock

absorbing medium for the front of the LCD. Together with the additional layers of glass provides a very rugged

composite structure. Another benefit is that should breakage actually occur the shards of glass will be retained

together to prevent injury to personnel. The adhesive also prevents any condensation from building up in the air

gap between the layers of glass which would cause fogging of the display. Finally, the added mass bonded to

the front of the LCD display adds a thermal conduction path to help dissipate the heat generated in the

backlights themselves.

By eliminating the majority of reflected light, the apparent contrast improves making the display more readable in

high bright situations. An alternative to improving the contrast is to increase the back light levels to overpower

the reflected light. The downside to this approach is the higher power requirements and higher heat generated

by the backlights.

Genesis Based LCD Controllers

The LCD Controller is a key component in any display

system and no expense has been spared in specifying the

Standard Controller and Advanced HD-SDI Controller

Genesis controllers. These are long life revision

controlled military grade components. The Genesis chip

set is the current gold standard for LCD controllers.

The controllers support 3x8-bit 16.7 million colors at up to

1920 x 1200. Refresh rates of 60Hz for WUXGA and

UXGA with higher refresh rates for lower resolutions

available. Computer input signals of VGA, SVGA, XGA,

SXGA, WXGA, UXGA and WUXGA are supported.

Video inputs of NTSC, PAL and SECAM are optionally

available. DVI inputs supports up to 1920 x 1080

WUXGA 60Hz signals.

These ruggedized military grade controllers are rated for

operating at -40 to +80 deg C, use low mass tantalum

capacitors for maximum vibration and shock tolerance

and are conformal coated for extreme ruggedness. The

coating is silicone resin conformal coating.(MOD) DEF-

STAN 59/47 Issue 4 &UL QMJU2 compliant

MTBF for the controllers is in excess of 150,000 to

200,000 hours.
