Are you thinking of Buying a LCD TV? Then you should read this...Written by The eme team
The LCD television is great in small placesThe LCD television will fit where larger TVs can not. The term LCD stands for Liquid Crystal Diode. If you want a flat panel TV, you can choose either a LCD TV or plasma TV. It is in electronics that LCD differs from plasma TV. How does LCD make a picture? LCD TVs are available in a few variations. The first is conventional LCD panel, but isn’t only used in televisions. LCDs are used in many other electronic technologies like microwaves, digital clocks, calculators, and stereos. In television, LCD comes in design called Twisted Nematic (TM). It is a naturally twisted crystalline structure that reacts to electric currents in predictable manners. The currents cause it to untwist to different degrees based on voltage given. These TN crystals are stuck between panes of polarized glass and untwisting allows different amounts of light to pass through. Most agree that if you are purchasing a flat television panel smaller than 37”, you should buy a LCD TV. Larger LCD panels tend to not be as crisp. You will find that plasma TV is better, if bigger. There are two exceptions if room is very bright, LCD is superior and LCD also is more resistant to burn in from sources like computers and TV video game consoles. LCD can burn out but occur much less than earlier models. Many models are now High Definition (HDTV) capable as well.
