Microelectronics, a world leader in providing the semiconductor solutions headquartered in Switzerland, has partnered with France-based MicroOLED to develop and distribute OLED displays. Plus, STMicroelectronics injected €
6
million to buy minority equity of MicroOLED.
MicroOLED's advanced technology offers superior pixel density for improved image quality and also proves 50% more power efficiency than competitive displays.
OLEDs can now have two-fold pixel densities and 10 to 100x more contrast ratios than alternate displays. By integrating these technology advantages, ST offers exceptional manufacturing machine, deep IP portfolio, and broad consumer-market expertise with production and supply services for new micro-displays.
ST’
s
fully integrated CMOS processes foster the development of a comprehensive product roadmap. The extensive portfolio of design IP of ST has enabled the integration of micro-display functions on external controllers that pose complexity to the final solution. With expertise in designing for low-power, ST promotes applications like video goggles.
Eric Marcellin-Dibon, the CEO and cofounder of MicroOLED, believes that the company’
s
strategic relationship with ST will promote improvement in the company’
s
strong manufacturing capabilities. With technology advancement and expansion of potential market, MicroOLED can better develop low-power micro-displays.
