End-Of-Life Notification 04/15/2020
This notice on April 15th, is to inform you of the discontinuation of the following LCD COG products:
- NHD-C0220AA-FSW-FTW
- NHD-C0220AZ-FSW-FTW
The NT7605 controller IC used in the manufacturing of these displays can no longer be reliably sourced. Due to an unstable supply of the controller IC, these products are being discontinued and replaced by a newer design.
If you currently have an open order for these parts, your scheduled shipments will not be affected.
We will have one final production build for these parts to give our customers the opportunity to place last-time-buy orders and build up inventory.
We are currently developing a new display design to replace both affected models. Samples of the new design will be made available by October 2020.
The new display design will replace the existing Novatech NT7605 controller IC with a Sitronix ST7036 controller IC, which is the closest replacement option available at this time.
Electrical design of the new Sitronix IC requires a change to the new display’s pinout and program code. Please reach out to your contact at Newhaven Display to obtain more information about the new display design and its compatibility with your existing product design.
Please email nhtech@newhavendisplay.com for further assistance in choosing a replacement display.
