Apple Apple will launch the iPad and MacBook notebooks for the first time into the new generation of Mini LED technology, and find Taiwan's LED chip leading crystal power supply. The crystal-related products have been certified and will be shipped next year. Since an iPad or MacBook needs to use about 10,000 Mini LEDs each time, the demand for apples is large, and it is not excluded that the power capacity related to the crystals is packaged to ensure the supply is flawless.
For related rumors, Jingdian said that it is actively developing the Mini LED market, but cannot comment on single customers and orders. Industry insiders pointed out that at this stage, Apple's display technology is still dominated by Korean factories such as Samsung and LG Display. Recently, land-based companies such as BOE have been added, and the power of Taiwanese factories is relatively weak. If Jingdian successfully supplies the iPad and MacBook's Mini LED next year, it will break the current situation that the Apple panel supply chain is dominated by Korean and Japanese companies.
It is understood that Jingdian started early in the field of Mini LED, and the technology is relatively leading. Apple has always been very interested in Jingdian's Mini LED. Last year, Taiwan's wisdom display and touch exhibition, it was said that Apple sent a special person to Taiwan. Visiting Jingdian and negotiating the possibility of cooperation with the new generation of displays, it was directly pointed to the Mini LED or the higher level of Micro LED.
According to industry insiders, Apple is looking for Jingdian this time, mainly to prepare for the next-generation iPad and the top-level MacBook. This is the first time that Apple hardware is equipped with Mini LED. Apple attaches great importance to it. Jingdian has won the favor because of the excellent performance of Mini LED produced by 4吋.
Since a tablet or a laptop needs to use about 10,000 Mini LEDs, the amount of tens or hundreds of LEDs is tens or even hundreds of times higher than the traditional one. Apple has requested to pack the crystal power capacity and hope that the company will continue. Expansion of production, if the cooperation is smooth, it is not excluded that the two sides continue to extend cooperation to the higher level of the Micro LED field.
According to industry analysis, Jingdian is a Taiwan Mini LED indicator manufacturer. It has started to produce Mini LEDs in a small amount in the second half of 2018, and its technology integration is strong. In April this year, it upgraded its high-power LED packaging/module factory Haotian Technology Private Equity. LED division of labor, 100% shareholding subsidiary Yuanfeng New Technology is responsible for Jingdian's Mini LED products business, including the integration of supply chain to R & D design, proofing production, mass production is handed over to Haotian Technology.
