13. D-LED LCD TV pixel faults
Despite the most modern production methods, the highly complex technology involved
in producing this type of device means there may be individual or multiple pixel drop-outs
(dead pixels). This is rare, however.
For active matrix TFTs with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, which are each made up of
three sub-pixels (red, green, blue), there are a total of approx. 6.2 Mio. control elements in
use. Occasionally one or more pixels can fail or become incorrectly controlled because of
this very high number of transistors and the associated extremely complex manufacturing
processes used.

The permitted number of faults of the above-mentioned types in every fault class is based on a number of one million pixels
and must be recalculated in accordance with the actual physical resolution of the display.
