HannStar Display expects production to run at full capacity throughout the second half of 2010, with monthly revenues to increase in the third quarter amid rising prices of large-size LCD panels, according to the company.
HannStar said that the current order visibility indicates strong demand in the third quarter.
HannStar has finished the development and design-in with clients for iPad-like applications, but volume shipments will not begin until fourth-quarter 2010 or first-quarter 2011 because of the current shortages of capacitive touch panels, the company noted.
The company expects LED-backlit products to account for up to 90% of its total shipments in the third quarter, and all of its new LCD TV and monitor models will be LED-backlit, HannStar said.
