Backlighting

o CCFL : The cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL) were used in the
past in order to light up the crystal solution on its way forward. The use of
this backlighting technology is now out of date though some
manufacturers still produce them. The reason it is abandoned is that the
CCFLs are thicker than LEDs. These lamps, set serially inside, illuminate
the whole screen equally and so equal level of brightness is observed
throughout the screen. Such LCDs are cheaper to make.

o Full array: Full array LED LCD TVs are the modern LED TVs where
the LCD screen is illuminated by an array full of LEDs. The use of LED in
lieu of CCFL has marked the difference between LED and LCD and has
caused the “LCD vs LED display” discussion to come into
being.Anyways, this newer technology has become favorite due to the
fact that it ensures precise and even illumination i.e.it has to offer the
illumination you want. Furthermore, it causes less bill for you to count in
comparison to the CCFL LCDs.

 Lighting: Lighting in LCD is of two types. In LCD TVs the sources for
illumination of the screen are placed just behind the screen only. On the other
hand, in LED TVs the light may come from behind or from the edges.

 Dimming: The screen and hence the pictures are dimmed in an LED
TV by dimming the LEDs behind it or on the edges. This sets the contrast of
the picture quality. Local dimming is something the full array LED TVs or
monitors have to offer as the light sources are under direct supervision over
local areas of the screen. But edge-lit ones may show dark lines or areas on
the screen owing to any blockade while setting the contrast.LCD TVs or
specifically the CCFL LCD TVs lack such features. The dimming may be done
to a minimal range by lowering the current through it. But, practically speaking,
it reduces the lifespan of CFL lamps. So, you do not want your TV to worn out
so shortly, do you?

 Direct or edge-mounted: It depends on which factor you are


concerned about when buying a TV or monitor.LED backlighting is of two
types: direct and edge mounted. Direct backlighting enables you to control the
contrast level by turning the local lights behind the screen on and off.Edge
mounted technology helps get you the thinnest display. But you have to lose
your control over the contrast level as an opportunity cost. Additionally, you
may suffer from the picture quality if the dispersion of light is not well.

 Viewing angles: Viewing angles primarily depend on the type of LCD


panel you use. But still, as the brightness, contrast and black levels depend on
the lighting technology, they have an effect on this particular issue. LED has an
upper hand again in this case as well.The challenge, in this case, is minimizing
the rate of change of hue, saturation and retaining the actual combination of
the red, green and blue (RBG) percentage of a particular picture irrespective of
your angular position with respect to the central point of the screen which is
often considered the “sweet spot”.The changes are lesser for the VA (Vertically
aligned) screens than IPS (in place switching) screens or TN (twisted nematic)
screens. LCD monitors come up with the IPS screens while the LED LCD ones
have VA screens in front. So, guess who wins!

 Thickness: No debate on LED vs LCD monitor or TV is there when


thickness comes to draw the line of separation. CCFL takes more space than a
full array with LED backlighting technology. But, the edge-lit LED TVs are
thinner than back-lit LED TVs.

 RGB quality/Color accuracy: LED back-lit LCDs has got two types of
LED backlighting in use- white and RGB.The white ones are made white by the
use of a sulfur coating on them and this is the same as CCFLs in terms of the
color accuracy. But the distinctive problem that it has is the stronger green
portion in pictures.The other ones i.e. the RGB LEDs has overcome the defect
of green “push” of the spectrum and thus gives better RGB quality. Keep this in
your mind while you are dealing with an LCD vs LED monitor confusion.

 Dynamic Contrast/black level: LCDs are, basically, displays that


transmit light more and so cannot produce perfect black. Instead, they give rise
to very dark yet grays.LEDs monitors provide you quality dark pictures meeting
you desire.

 Video playback (when fast): When videos are played fast a number
of displays expose blurred images and often get lagged. The response rate of
time of an LED display is enough to overcome these troubles.

 Price: The LCD monitors are almost always cheaper than LED
monitors.

 Lifespan: As far as lifespan is concerned, LED is again ahead of LCD.


The longevity mostly depends on the light source used. As the CFL backlights
go out of the calibrated white balance faster than LEDs, whether it be RGB
LEDs or the ones containing sulfur, LED TVs are again the better choice.

 Power consumption: LCD displays, for a certain size, always


consume more power than LED displays.

 Sizes: The size of LCD displays ranging from 15 inches to 65 inches.


On the other hand, LED displays to range from 17 inches to 70 inches. As size
does matter to several, LED TVs and monitors are preferable.
