PHILPS LCoS China as exit alliance enterprises to seek change

Late last year, PHILPS's unilateral exit, once let the Chinese LCoS alliance is very passive. While looking for more partners, the LCoS alliance is starting to restart. July 21 ~ 22 days, "Chinese LCoS alliance held a" seminar on the development of China LCoS industry in Beijing, this is the first time PHILPS terminate cooperation with the Alliance Party staff after the number of new partners from home and abroad, adding more options for the future of the alliance. Development Alliance

"Indeed, we have high expectations for PHILPS, hope that through cooperation with the China LCoS industry truly autonomous to do it," Mr. Zhao Handing told reporters, "so after PHILPS suddenly withdrew from the LCoS field, the LCoS alliance is really a great loss to." As China Video Industry Association, large screen projection display branch of the secretary general, Zhao Handing is the "Chinese LCoS alliance" the earliest advocates and promoters, in 2004 April, PHILPS to promote its monolithic LCoS technology, in the big screen branch of the organization, and Chinese 14 consumer electronics enterprises set up the alliance. In order to obtain technical support, each alliance companies have also paid a lot of technical advisory fees, PHILPS is committed to technical training. "Is not only a question of money," Zhao Handing said, "it is more important to PHILPS and Intel and other giants from the LCoS field, it is easy to cause misunderstanding of industry judgment, make people feel LCoS in fact is not so bleak." In the workshop, expand technical ideas and seek closer cooperation and broader scope, become the three focus. "Original cooperation with PHILPS, using single chip technology, we put forward and monolithic and three pieces of technology," Zhao Handing told reporters, "in the development of low-end products with single chip technology, with three main high-grade line technology. Although there is no PHILPS, but also to see the monolithic technology is still a pragmatic choice, can never go to extremes to bet all three pieces." Zhao Handing believes that 50 inches below the use of single chip technology, larger size is the use of three pieces of technology, compared with the market rules. "Because the products are mainly for large screen projection area, if the 60 Inch products do cost 4000 yuan (about $500), so the market price can be in the yuan, such as 9000 yuan, to the enterprise's profit space industry chain is still very impressive, and large screen LCD TV, plasma TV also some fight." At this conference, the United States MDC company, eLCoS company, three five company and JVC company of Japan to provide three pieces of LCoS technology companies have made it clear that cooperation with the LCOS alliance, to provide technical support; international, Taiwan in core from Taiwan province China the TSMC, CPT respectively introduced their research results in LCoS in the field of China from mainland; Jiangxi Hongyuan, Nankai University also took out a display prototype and technical report - which is currently in the field of LCOS mainstream camp. "LCoS way a great part in the China," Zhao Handing said, "on the one hand, different from DLP, 3LCD, LCoS have no monopoly of intellectual property, China industry obtain favorable strategic position by LCoS; on the other hand, China enormous consumer market, from the sales can have CRT RPTV see, in 2 ~ 3 grade market, has relatively spacious living space China consumers, product demand is quite strong for projection." Therefore, three proposals to expand the LCoS alliance is put forward at the seminar: first, the establishment of cross strait LCoS alliance; second, the Hongkong Special Administrative Region Electric Co. Ltd and Hong Kong University Science & Technology, established in Taiwan, Hongkong, including the mainland, the Greater China LCoS alliance; third, international business Union, proposed American and Japanese enterprises, the establishment of the international LCoS alliance. Zhao Handing hope, the actual support recovery industry enthusiasm can be a national policy, "we will organize seminar content written and submitted to the relevant government departments, for the domestic LCoS projects for fiscal and tax preferential policies." Because LCoS is the principle of "semiconductor (CMOS) + LCD", "if LCoS can be assigned to the State Council No. 18 (" to encourage the software industry and integrated circuit industry development a number of policy ") the applicable scope is good," Zhao told reporters handing. Industry chain construction a few hurdle big industry, enthusiasm alone is not enough, LCoS technology has been put forward for many years, the global industrial chain which has a few hurdle? First of all technology. "PHILPS make monolithic programs that engage Intel three film program, they are actually being out," the United States eLCoS company director feldspar Fengxian told reporters, "such as single chip technology, the theory of course more than three pieces of cheap, but the larger monolithic semiconductor, thinner and more quickly, which is the most difficult to break through several indicators of semiconductor technology, so I think the current or three scheme is more realistic, monolithic scheme has not enough." But also the experts pointed out that the color wheel three LCoS lack of consistency, chip and machine life can not be determined, good current international companies announced rates have not been verified authority. The Yellow River, in core international mentioned in his speech, "in principle, the LCoS micro display projection system is integrated reflection from the evolution of the LCD micro display projection system and projection, the two have many similarities, their common drawback is the role of liquid crystal light valve only for polarized light modulated, so before irradiation the light valve chip, must be part of the non polarized light source
