LQ050Y3DC01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LQ050Y3DC01 is a 5.0-inch TFT color LCD display module manufactured by Sharp Microelectronics. It features an 800 x 480 (WVGA) resolution with a parallel 24-bit RGB interface and LED white backlight. The display operates in transmissive mode with RGB color capability.

This part is currently listed as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for ongoing production, maintenance, and new system implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LQ050Y3DC01 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Display Type: TFT - Color
• Display Mode: Transmissive
• Diagonal Screen Size: 5" (127.00mm)
• Resolution: 800 x 480 (WVGA)
• Interface: Parallel, 24-Bit (RGB)
• Backlight: LED - White
• Graphics Color: Red, Green, Blue (RGB)
• Dot Pitch: 0.14mm W x 0.14mm H

The EA TFT050-84ANN from Display Visions meets all these critical parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both parts share identical display specifications, resolution, interface protocol, and physical dot pitch characteristics, enabling functional equivalence in applications designed for the LQ050Y3DC01.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EA TFT050-84ANN is the qualified substitute for the LQ050Y3DC01. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

• Both parts maintain identical electrical interface specifications (Parallel, 24-Bit RGB)
• Both parts maintain identical display resolution and physical dot pitch
• The EA TFT050-84ANN carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
• The EA TFT050-84ANN is RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements
• Viewing area dimensions are equivalent within acceptable engineering tolerances (1mm variance in width and height)

The transition from the obsolete LQ050Y3DC01 to the EA TFT050-84ANN requires no changes to display interface circuitry or firmware, as both parts operate on identical parallel RGB protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EA TFT050-84ANN be used as a direct replacement for the LQ050Y3DC01?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical display type, resolution, interface protocol, and dot pitch specifications. No circuit modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Sharp vs. Display Visions) and product status (Obsolete vs. Active). The EA TFT050-84ANN has a marginally larger viewing area (1mm wider and 0.3mm taller) and carries RoHS compliance certification. These differences do not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns?

A: The viewing area dimensions differ slightly (LQ050Y3DC01: 108.00mm W x 64.80mm H; EA TFT050-84ANN: 109.00mm W x 65.10mm H). Mechanical mounting and bezel designs should be verified to accommodate the 1mm width and 0.3mm height variance.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance on the EA TFT050-84ANN?

A: RoHS compliance indicates the part meets current environmental and regulatory standards for hazardous substance restrictions. This is relevant for applications subject to environmental regulations or customer requirements.

Q: Can I use the LQ050Y3DC01 if the EA TFT050-84ANN is unavailable?

A: The LQ050Y3DC01 is obsolete and not recommended for new designs or ongoing procurement. The EA TFT050-84ANN should be the primary selection for all applications requiring a 5-inch WVGA TFT display with parallel RGB interface.
