SDC Delivering QD-OLED Samples
Samsung System LSI, the logic chip unit of Samsung Electronics, has begun development of three timing controller (T-Con) for quantum dot (QD)-OLED panels being developed by Samsung Display, TheElec has learned. Samsung Display is planning to send its prototypes of QD-OLED TVs and a monitor to potential engineering samples for use in QD-OLED panels, people with direct knowledge of the matter told TheElec. The samples are for a 4K QD-OLED TV, an 8K QD-OLED TV and a QD-OLED monitor. Samsung Display has previously sent QD-OLED panel samples to its potential customers, but these samples were not in a completed product format and were made to inspect the quality of the panels. The samples that will be sent this month will be a completed product. Potential customers for the QD-OLED panels include Samsung Electronics’ Visual Display and Sony. The panels the Q1 line in Asan. Samsung System LSI supplied T-Con ICs for Samsung Display for liquid crystal display and OLED panels in the past. SDC will decide regarding mass production in September and if positive, System LSI’s T-Con will be in the customer sample stages before November. The Q1 line dedicated to QD-OLED production currently has a production capacity of 30,000 Gen 8.5 substrates/month, which can result in 1.4 million to 1.5 million panels for TVs and monitors a year. As we commented last week, no decisions have been made regarding Phase 2, which would add 30,000 substrates/month capacity.
