Product Overview

The V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DTis a 15” SD/HD video LCD with Marshall Electronics’ proprietary SunBrite LCD panel, designed specifically for outdoor applications or high levels of ambient light. The V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT features our completely digital TFT-MegaPixel™ active matrix LCD system. Weighing only 8.1 lbs and only 1.77” deep, this monitor is an ideal lightweight replacement for CRTs used in all broadcast and professional video applications. Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color and adjustable color temperature enable the most precise color representation possible. Our proprietary digital signal processing features 10-bit A/D conversion of all analog signals, with 4X over-sampling and 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering of composite signals. De-interlacing is performed using our HyperProcess™ algorithm with motion adaptive interpolation. The V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT features multi-format compatibility, accommodating virtually all video formats including NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i/p formats. VGA and DVI inputs accept VESA standards allowing the display to be used as a computer monitor. Advanced features include aspect ratio settings, a variety of screen markers, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, H/V delay, and Pixel-to-Pixel™ mode.

Features

High-Resolution 15” SunBrite Panel

The V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT features Marshall Electronics’ new SunBrite LCD panel, dramatically boosting the efficiency of the backlight’s light utilization and minimizing the surface reflection of ambient light. The transmissive LCD produces high-contrast images, even in challenging outdoor lighting conditions. This technology features a much wider

color reproduction range than typical transflective/reflective LCDs with increased backlight performance. The LCD panel features a brightness of 600 cd/m2, 600:1 contrast ratio, and 160° horizontal and 140° vertical viewing angles.

Multi-Format Compatibility

With a variety of analog and digital inputs, the V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT accommodates virtually all video formats. Input types include Composite Video, S-Video, YPbPr, SDI, VGA, and DVI with HDCP. Accepted formats include NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p, 1035i, and 1080i/p standards, as well as VESA PC formats through SXGA (1280 x 1024).

End-to-End Digital Signal Processing

Analog signals are digitized using an advanced 10-bit process with 4x over-sampling, 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering, and exacting color space conversion. Video is scaled to fit on the screen in the highest possible resolution using a state-of-the-art LSI that incorporates precision gamma correction and our HyperProcess™ motion adaptive interpolation for interlaced images.

ColorMatch™ Conversion with Color Temperature Adjustment

Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color space allows the V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT to replace any broadcast CRT monitor. Settings include D55, D65 and D95. Bias and Gain adjustment for each color enables precise color matching and white balance.

Advanced Features

Aspect ratio settings, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, and H/V delay are a few of the advanced features making the V-LCD15SB-AFHD-DT at home in any broadcast environment. Pixel-to-Pixel™ mode also allows native display of any incoming image format.

Flexible Screen Markers

A variety of screen markers in both 4:3 and 16:9 modes allow accurate monitoring of the different aspect ratios used in broadcast environments.

User-Definable Function Buttons

Two user-definable function buttons on the front-panel allow quick access to numerous settings and features including aspect ratio, screen markers, monochrome mode, color temperature, delay mode, and more.
