Tiny LCOS microdisplay drives next-gen smart glasses
Omnivision’s OP03021 liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) panel integrates the display array, driver, and memory into a low-power, single-chip design. The full-color microdisplay delivers a resolution of 1632×1536 pixels at 90 Hz in a compact 0.26-in. optical format, enabling smart glasses to achieve higher resolution and a wider field of view.
The microdisplay features a 3.0-µm pixel pitch and operates with a 90-Hz field-sequential input using a MIPI C-PHY trio interface. Panel dimensions are just 7.986×25.3×2.116 mm, saving board space in wearables such as augmented reality (AR), extended reality (XR), and mixed-reality (MR) smart glasses and head-mounted displays.
The OP03021 is offered in a compact 30-pin FPCA package. Samples are available now, with mass production scheduled to begin in the first half of 2026. For more information, contact a sales representative here.
