LCD TVs Are Fast Becoming the TV Standard

If you look around, you can easily see LCD technology. From the digital clock that beeps away at you in the morning to the microwave that served up your last late night snack, you have been utilizing LCD technology for years, most likely without even being aware of it. The digital watch on your wrist, the laptop at your office, even the MP3 player in your gym bag makes use of LCD innovations.

These are only a couple of examples of everyday electronics that use LCD technology. The most trendy and frequent use of LCD technology nowadays is the ever popular LCD television.

Liquid Crystal Displays or LCD TVs are those that use flat, thin displays made up of a series of monochrome pixels that are in turn displayed in front of a reflector or other source of light. That is where the image display comes from. In most cases, the technology used is that of the Thin Film Transistor or TFT that is a specific type of field effect transistor made by layering thin films intended for metal contacts along with dielectric and semiconductor layers. As such, the LCD television is more different than other image producing technologies such as a plasma display or older cathode ray tubes.

At one time, the general consensus was that LCD technology was only good when used on televisions of smaller size and that it could not contend with plasma technology when it came to larger screen sizes. With the advent of seventh generation panels by such giants as samsung, Sony, Westinghouse Digital, Sharp and LG Philips, those beliefs have proven to be false.

In October of 2004, LCD screen sizes where as large as 45 inches and were readily accessible by several companies and the Sharp Corporation took center lead with the introduction of the first 65 inch panel TV in history. By 2006, LG Philips had introduced the largest display yet with their 100 inch LCD television.

Today's LCD TVs are universal, in that they include a multi system tuner that displays NTSC, SECAM and PAL standards. They also offer electronic transformers that automatically use 110/250 voltage without any issues, as well as universal grounded adapter plugs. Also, LCD televisions are not going to be limited to the living room and now serve as computer monitors across the world.

According to recent news, manufacturers continue with plans to invest obscene amounts of money on the production and development of LCD television technology for a long time. It is highly un-likely that LCD technology is going anywhere, in fact, if recent trends continue for LCD TVs, then better advancements are yet to come!
