Post by thread:Sources of obsolete LCD screen (Toshiba LTM10C313S

A friend's company manufactures equipment that uses an LCD screen that has ceased production (apparently unannounced and certainly not pre-announced!). Redesigning to use other screens is going to take time/effort/money and meantime they still need a supply of the existing screen ("10 would be good - 100 would be very good!"). Searching in all the usual places hasn't turned up any, so the question is: how do you find which devices used this part, so he can search for those, and canibalise them for the screen? The part in question is a Toshiba 10.4" XGA screen, part number LTM10C313S or LTM10C313K - I am informed that there are no suitable alternatives! Any ideas ? Cheers, Howard Winter St.Albans, England

He would have to change some sofware/ firmware timings? Maybe one of those TTL with the funny combined sync pin? everybody on google want to give you a quote on them Dave
