New to the GLYN Product Portfolio: WINSTAR Displays
GLYN is expanding its display portfolio through a new partnership with Taiwanese display manufacturer WINSTAR. This collaboration gives our customers access to innovative display solutions, greater design flexibility, and long-term product availability.
About WINSTAR
WINSTAR is one of the world's established manufacturers of display technologies and complements GLYN's existing portfolio in several key areas. In addition to a comprehensive range of standard products, the company offers extensive customization options—even for comparatively low minimum order quantities.
TFT Displays Beyond Standard Formats
Not every application fits a traditional 4:3 or 16:9 display format. WINSTAR offers a wide selection of alternative form factors, including round displays and bar-type TFTs. These unique display formats enable modern, distinctive HMI concepts that give products a truly individual appearance.
The broad range of available variants, combined with attractive minimum order quantities and long-term availability, gives developers greater freedom to create innovative user interfaces.
PMOLED – Compact, High Contrast, and Energy Efficient
When compact size, high contrast, and low power consumption are key requirements, PMOLED displays are an excellent choice. As WINSTAR manufactures this technology in-house, the company offers a broad portfolio of standard products alongside extensive customization capabilities.
Typical applications include industrial HMIs, measurement and control equipment, as well as compact embedded systems.
Long-Term Availability for Monochrome LCD Applications
Many industrial products remain in production for decades with little or no design changes. For monochrome LCDs in particular, a common concern is what happens when the original manufacturer discontinues a product.
WINSTAR addresses this challenge with a comprehensive portfolio ranging from LCD glass and character displays to graphic LCDs. Thousands of standard products are available with short lead times. When a standard solution is not suitable, custom display variants can be developed with moderate engineering effort and cost.
Intelligent Displays for Modern HMI Concepts
The portfolio also includes intelligent display solutions for a wide range of applications. These include TFT displays with integrated controllers, displays powered by ARM processors, and solutions featuring integrated baseboards for solderable Computer-on-Modules (COMs).
These integrated platforms help reduce development effort, shorten time-to-market, and simplify overall system design.
HDMI TFT Displays
For applications based on embedded PCs, Raspberry Pi, or other HDMI-enabled platforms, WINSTAR offers TFT displays with a direct HDMI interface. Developers benefit from fast integration without the need for complex display driver development, enabling projects to be implemented more quickly and efficiently.
A Strong Addition to GLYN's Display Portfolio
With WINSTAR, GLYN adds a strong new partner offering both standard products and customized display solutions from a single source. Customers benefit from a broad technology portfolio, outstanding flexibility, and long-term product availability—from monochrome LCDs and PMOLED displays to advanced intelligent TFT systems.
