Panasonic TH-37PWD4UZ - 37" Plasma Display


Special - $call

The TH-37PWD4UZ sports the highest brightness level and contrast ratio available in a plasma display.

The TH-37PWD4UZ incorporates advanced digital processing technology including a newly developed Real Black Drive System, Adaptive Brightness Intensifier, False-Edge Predictor circuit, and UXGA/HDTV compatibility.

It features an industry-leading contrast ratio and peak panel brightness of 650 cd/m2 to produce realistic images in vibrant, natural colors with a wide 16:9 aspect ratio, 160-degree viewing angle. The TH-37PWD4UZ features an ultra-thin yet ultra-sturdy 3.5" deep body. It weighs only 55 lbs and offers a thinner surround area, effectively increasing the overall screen area.

Responding to plasma display needs in the computer monitoring arena, the TH-37PWD4UZ offers expanded computer signal compatibility to display VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, and UXGA resolutions and an expanded range of horizontal and vertical scanning rates (fH: 15:6 - 110 kHz; fV: 48-120 Hz). This wider range allows the TH-37PWD4UZ to display dynamic, updateable dynamic signage applications when driven from a computer.

Equipped with component video (YPbPr) inputs, it enables viewing of DTV and HDTV broadcasts in either scaled 1080i, 720p, 480i, or 480p. In addition, a 3-Dimensional Progressive Scan function elegantly converts interlace signals (1080i and 480i) into progressive signals for optimal viewing.

A 'Real Black Drive System' dramatically lowers black levels, resulting in an extraordinary 3000:1 contrast ratio, four times higher than prior Panasonic plasmas. The 16:9 unit produces virtually distortion-free images with up to 16.77 million colors and produces 1,024 shades of gray - twice that of previous models - for cleaner details, especially in low-light images.

The unique 'Advanced Plasma Adaptive Brightness Intensifier' (AI) increases the discharge cycle for dark scenes , in turn doubling brightness precision over prior models. The result is a smoother blend of graduating brightness levels, both in luminance and chrominance.

The TH-37PWD4UZ features an unprecedented brightness specification of 650 cd/m2 - a huge increase in peak brightness compared with non-AI equipped plasma sets. Additionally, its unique 'Asymmetrical Cell Structure' panel serves to achieve both high brightness and high color temperature, resulting in a significantly improved light-emitting balance of the three primary colors (red, green, blue).

To reduce noise in fast-moving images, the display features a more precise False-Edge Predictor circuit. Essentially this is an adaptive motion sensing circuit that senses movement and applies a specific filter that removes noise from picture elements while maintaining resolution. Consuming only 225 Watts of power, it offers the lowest power consumption of any available 37" plasma. This means less heat and no fans.

For system installation and display, a range of optional accessories are available and include detachable speakers; wall-hanging and ceiling-hanging brackets; and fixed floor, mobile floor and pedestal stands.

The TH-37PWD4UZ accepts most international video signals, including NTSC, PAL, SECAM and PAL-60. The on-screen menu offers a selection of seven languages with an improved menu structure. Composite and component video inputs appear on RCA connections while PC inputs on a standard 15-pin connector. An S-video input is available on a standard 4-pin din connector.
