Display Unit
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Acura TSX and 2004 Acura TSX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The display unit uses a liquid crystal display (LCD). The LCD is a 8-inch-diagonal, thin film transistor (TFT), stripe type with 336,960 picture elements. The color film and fluorescent light are laid out on the back of the liquid crystal film. The touch sensor on the front of the LCD consists of a touch sensitive resistive membrane with an infinite number of possible touch locations. To maintain compatibility with earlier display units, the sensing locations are confined to a grid of 20 vertical and 9 horizontal touch locations. This produces 180 total sensing points. The display, unit transmits the signal from each operation key and the touch switches to the navigation unit over the GA-Net bus.
