    Philips' Flat Panel Monitors Pixel    
    Defect Policy
    Philips strives to deliver the highest quality 
    products. 	We	use	some	of	the	industr y's	most	
    advanced manufacturing processes and practice 
    stringent quality control. However, pixel or sub 
    pixel defects on the TFT LCD panels used in flat 
    panel monitors are sometimes unavoidable. No 
    manufacturer can guarantee that all panels will 
    be free from pixel defects, but Philips guarantees 
    that any monitor with an unacceptable number 
    of defects will be repaired or replaced under 
    warranty. This notice explains the different types 
    of pixel defects and defines acceptable defect 
    levels for each type. In order to qualify for repair 
    or replacement under warranty, the number of 
    pixel defects on a TFT LCD panel must exceed 
    these acceptable levels. For example, no more 
    than 0.0004% of the sub pixels on a 18.5" XGA 
    monitor may be defective. Fur thermore, Philips 
    sets even higher quality standards for cer tain 
    types or combinations of pixel defects that are 
    more noticeable than others. This policy is valid 
    worldwide.
    Pixels and Sub pixels 
    A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three 
    sub pixels in the primar y colors of red, green and 
    blue. 	Many	pixels	together	form	an	image. 	When	
    all sub pixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored 
    sub pixels together appear as a single white pixel. 
    When	all	are	dark, 	the	three	colored	sub	pixels	
    together appear as a single black pixel. Other 
    combinations of lit and dark sub pixels appear as 
    single pixels of other colors. Types of Pixel Defects 
    Pixel and sub pixel defects appear on the screen 
    in different ways. There are two categories of pixel 
    defects and several types of sub pixel defects 
    within each categor y. 
    Bright Dot Defects Bright dot defects appear as 
    pixels	or	sub	pixels	that	are	always	lit	or	'on'.
    	That	
    is, a bright dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the 
    screen when the monitor displays a dark pattern. 
    There are the types of bright dot defects:
    One lit red, green or blue sub pixel
    Two adjacent lit sub pixels:
    -  Red + Blue = Purple
    -   Red + Green = Yellow
    -   Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)
    Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel)
     
    						
    							17
     Note
    A red or blue bright dot must be more  than 50 
    percent brighter than neighboring dots while 
    a green bright dot is 30 percent brighter than 
    neighboring dots.
    Black Dot Defects Black dot defects appear as 
    pixels	or	sub	pixels	that	are	always	dark	or	'off'. 	
    That is, a dark dot is a sub-pixel that stands out 
    on the screen when the monitor displays a light 
    pattern. These are the types of black dot defects: Proximity of Pixel Defects 
    Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same 
    type that are near to one another may be more 
    noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the 
    proximity of pixel defects.
    Pixel Defect Tolerances
    In order to qualify for repair or replacement due 
    to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT 
    LCD panel in a Philips flat panel monitor must 
    have pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the 
    tolerances listed in the following tables.
       BRIGHT DOT DEFECTS
    ACCEPTABLE LEVEL
       MODEL  
    191E2/191EL2
       1 lit subpixel 3
       2 adjacent lit subpixels 1
       3 adjacent lit subpixels (one white pixel) 0
       Distance between two bright dot defects* >15mm
       Total bright dot defects of all types 3
       BLACK DOT DEFECTSACCEPTABLE LEVEL
       MODEL 191E2/191EL2
       1 dark subpixel 5 or fewer
       2 adjacent dark subpixels 2 or fewer
       3 adjacent dark subpixels 0
       Distance between two black dot defects* >15mm
       Total black dot defects of all types 5 or fewer
       TOTAL DOT DEFECTSACCEPTABLE LEVEL
       MODEL 191E2/191EL2
        Total bright or black dot defects of all types 5 or fewer
     
    Note 
    1 or 2 adjacent sub pixel defects = 1 dot defect
