Error in product designation on the Website

Post by Kovkov »

Hello,

I noticed something that appears to be a mistake when reading the description of the product #1694 : 10.1" Display & Audio 1280x800 IPS - HDMI/VGA/NTSC/PAL.

This screen is supposed to be an IPS screen but in the technical details, we can read "We ship with a an HSD101PWW1 display, or equivalent", and the linked datasheet is about a TFT screen...

I really want an IPS screen, please let me know where the mistake is and what kind of LCD screen is actually shipped when we order this product.

Thank you.

its a HSD101PWW1-A - which has wide-view angle, that's an indicator of IPS right?

Oh....

I'm very sorry for posting this as if it was a mistake that you made (the Adafruit shop) despite my lack of knowledge in the area.
I should have searched further before convincing myself that TFT and IPS were totally distinct and incompatible technologies.

Thanks anyway for your response and congratulations for contributing to what I consider to be the best website for electronic related projects! : )

all good! we're not 100% sure how else you would designate IPS - we think its basically any TFT that has ~89degree view
