The Flexible RGB LCD Backlight Module is a highly versatile, thin-profile light-emitting panel designed for embedded systems and custom illumination. It operates on the industry-standard RGB color model, utilizing three separate channels (Red, Green, and Blue) to generate a spectrum of nearly 16 million distinct colors. This light-emitting panel is structured with a common anode diode. Its key differentiators are its physical pliability, full-spectrum color output, and high-brightness, uniform display. Key Specifications include precise forward voltage requirements (R: 1.8-2.2V, G/B: 2.8-3.2V), 70% illumination uniformity, and a wide operating temperature range (-20°C to 70°C). This flexible backlight is engineered primarily for applications requiring a custom multi-color light source or a dynamic LED indicator.


Flexible and Bendable Form Factor

The primary feature of this flexible RGB panel is its physical flexibility. Unlike rigid PCBs or traditional backlights, this panel can be bent and conformed to curved surfaces or fitted into non-standard enclosures. This adaptability makes it an exceptional solution for custom-built devices, wearable technology, and prototypes that require light to be integrated into complex shapes.

Full-Spectrum RGB Color Display

This RGB light source provides comprehensive color control by integrating red, green, and blue LEDs into a single panel. By precisely managing the intensity of these three channels (e.g., via PWM signals from a microcontroller), designers can achieve nuanced color mixing. This capability extends its use beyond simple illumination, allowing for the creation of complex status indicators, ambient lighting effects, or data visualizations.

High-Brightness and Uniform Illumination

This light-emitting panel is engineered to provide a bright, consistent glow across its entire surface, achieving 70% uniformity. This lack of "hot spots" is critical when used as a backlight, as it ensures that any overlying display (like a monochrome LCD) is evenly lit for maximum legibility. As an indicator, this uniformity provides a clean, professional, and diffuse light source.

Note: Do not remove the film on the screen surface. Other sizes and interfaces can be customized.
