4.2 Types of Pixel Defects + Dot Definition
Pixel and sub-pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are three categories of pixel defects and several types of
sub-pixel defects within each category.
Dot definition = What is a defective “Dot”?
One or more defective, adjacent sub-pixel are defined as one “dot”.
The number of defective sub-pixels are not relevant to define a
defective dot. This means that a defective dot can consist of one, two
or three defective sub-pixels which can be dark or lit.
One dot = One Pixel; consists of
three sub-pixels of Red, Green,
and Blue.
4. Pixel Defect Policy
We strive to deliver the highest quality products and use some of the industry’s most advanced manufacturing processes whilst
practicing stringent quality control. However, pixel or sub-pixel defects on the PDP / TFT panels used in Plasma- & LCD- displays
are sometimes unavoidable. No manufacturer can guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects, but guarantees that
any Plasma- & LCD- displays with an unacceptable number of defects will be repaired during the warranty period in line with your
local guarantee conditions.
This notice explains the different types of pixel defects and defines the acceptable defect level for the LCD screen. In order to
qualify for repair under warranty, the number of pixel defects must exceed a certain level as shown in the reference table. If the
LCD screen is within specification a warranty exchange / claim back will be refused.
4.1 Pixels and Subpixels
A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub-pixels in the primary colors
of red, green and blue. Many pixels together form an image. When all sub-pixels of
a pixel are lit, the three colored sub-pixels together appear as a single white pixel.
When all are dark, the three colored sub-pixels together appear as a single black
pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark sub-pixels appear as single pixels of other
colors.
