Technical Specifications

These specifications are supported by AUO technical documentation and multiple technical listings for the G104VN01 V.1.

10.4-Inch VGA Industrial Display

The AUO G104VN01 V.1 features a 10.4-inch display with a 640 × 480 VGA resolution and a traditional 4:3 aspect ratio. Its active display area measures approximately 211.2 × 158.4 mm, providing a practical display area for machine interfaces, equipment monitoring, control systems, and industrial applications.

The 4:3 format makes this panel suitable for industrial and legacy equipment designed around conventional VGA display dimensions.

450 cd/m² Brightness and 700:1 Contrast

The G104VN01 V.1 provides a typical luminance of 450 cd/m² and a 700:1 contrast ratio. These specifications support clear differentiation between displayed text, graphics, indicators, and machine-control information.

The panel supports 262K or 16.2 million colors, depending on the input configuration, with approximately 44-45% NTSC color coverage.

TN Normally White Display Technology

The G104VN01 V.1 uses TN, normally white, transmissive TFT-LCD technology. Its typical viewing angles are approximately 80° left, 80° right, 60° upward, and 80° downward at CR≥10.

The specified optimum viewing direction is 6 o'clock, which should be considered when installing the panel into equipment or replacing an existing display.

Antiglare Surface with 3H Hard Coating

The panel features an antiglare surface with 3H hard coating. The antiglare treatment helps reduce reflections from surrounding light sources, while the hard coating provides additional surface protection during normal handling.

This combination can be useful for industrial control panels, machine interfaces, and equipment operating under varying lighting conditions.

LVDS Interface with 20-Pin Connector

The AUO G104VN01 V.1 uses a 1-channel LVDS, 6/8-bit interface with a 20-pin connector and a typical 3.3V LCD supply.

The original AUO specification also states that its LVDS input is compatible with the G104SN02 V1 interface. However, compatibility should always be confirmed against the specific equipment and connector pinout before replacement.

WLED Backlight with Integrated LED Driver

The G104VN01 V.1 uses an 8S2P WLED backlight with an integrated LED driver. The specified backlight life is approximately 50,000 hours. The LED unit is also described as replaceable in the available AUO documentation.

This LED backlight configuration provides a long-life illumination solution for industrial display applications.

Wide Operating Temperature Range

The G104VN01 V.1 supports an operating temperature range of -30°C to 85°C, with the same range specified for storage.

This wide temperature range makes the panel suitable for industrial equipment that may experience substantial temperature variations during operation.
