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
This monitor is ISO9241-307 compliant.
