Proximity Of Pixel Defects; Pixel Defect Tolerances - Philips 150MT Electronic User's Manual

Philips Pixel Defect Policy
One lit red, green or blue sub
pixel
Black Dot Defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or 'off'. These are the types of black
dot defects:
One dark sub pixel

Proximity of Pixel Defects

Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same type that are near to one another may be more
noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects.

Pixel Defect Tolerances

In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT LCD
panel in a Philips flat panel monitor must have pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in
the following tables.
