A well designed backlight has a considerable influence on
the performance of the LCD. It can dramatically improve the
readability, contrast and clarity of the display as well as
enhancing the overall aesthetic appearance of the equipment
it is mounted in. It is critical to choose a supplier
who has an extensive knowledge and experience of working with
LED technology to make sure the backlight complements the
application.

Forge Europa, a leading manufacturer of LED products, offers
a custom design and manufacturing facility for edge or direct
illuminated LED backlights.

Using LEDs has a number of advantages.
- They offer distinct and vivid colours, long life (50 000hours)
and the opportunity for precise dimming or intensity control.
- Power consumption is very low and can be further reduced
by using pwm drive circuits.
Forge Europa offers a unique combination of European based experienced
design engineers familiar with the latest advanced technology
in conjunction with their low-cost manufacturing facility in
the Far East. Particular emphasis is placed on achieving excellent
uniformity of both colour and intensity.

These backlights are ideal for small to medium size LCDs which
are typically used in instrumentation and portable equipment.
As well as single colour devices, backlights can be built with
red, green and blue LEDs to give a wide colour gamut or customised
colours for example to match a corporate logo or image.
