Energy saving LED-TFT from Philips

The power consumption of the new monitor can also be reduced to 14 watts.

Philips has introduced a new monitor that wants to draw attention to itself with its energy-saving features. One such feature is the “PowerSensor”, the essence of which is that a built-in sensor detects whether the user is sitting in front of the display or not. If the user is away from the device, ie the sensor does not detect its presence, the brightness is automatically reduced and thus up to 70% energy savings can be achieved. Another such innovation is “SmartPower”, which saves power by up to 50% by dynamically analyzing the displayed content. With these procedures, the average power consumption of the monitor can be reduced from 24 Watts to 12 Watts, while in standby mode it requires only 0,1 Watts.

From a technical point of view, the LED-backlit product is perhaps average. It can display up to 56 x 1680 pixels on the 1050 cm screen. It has a response time of 5 ms, a dynamic contrast ratio of 20.000.000: 1, a static contrast ratio of 1000: 1 and a maximum brightness of 250 cd / m2. Connectors include a D-Sub (VGA), a DVI, and four USB ports. In addition, audio connectors can be found on it, allowing the built-in two 1,5-watt speakers to sound. The Philips 225PL2 will be available for purchase from this month for € 250.
