The VHR-200 Voltage Holding Ratio Measurement System is a research and development tool designed to provide an affordable means for determining the VHR of liquid crystal test cells.
Voltage Holding Ratio (VHR) is a critical electrical parameter for liquid crystal displays (LCDs). VHR is a measure of the LCD ability to retain a voltage during the time between pixel updates (frame time). The VHR-200 has software adjustable drive pulse width and frame time.
LCD manufacturers evaluate and test many new alignment polymers and liquid crystals for LCDs. The type of alignment polymer and liquid crystal can have a dramatic effect on the VHR of the liquid crystal display and, therefore, manufacturers monitor VHR as part of their evaluation. It was for this purpose that the VHR-200 was designed and engineered.
The VHR-200 Voltage Holding Ratio Measurement System includes such features as a laptop PC, CU-100 unit for independent testing of the system, and VHRS acquisition software for the Windows operating system.
