IPS Display Ghosting: Understanding the Phenomenon & MAXEN‘s Engineering Solutions
1. What Is IPS Ghosting?
IPS ghosting (temporary image retention) refers to faint traces of previous images lingering on-screen during fast-moving content. Unlike OLED burn-in, this effect fades within minutes/hours and causes no permanent damage.
2. Root Causes of Ghosting in IPS Panels
▶ Liquid Crystal Response Limits
IPS pixels rely on liquid crystals rotating horizontally to modulate light. While modern IPS screens achieve 1-5ms Gray-to-Gray (GTG) response times, rapid scene changes (gaming/video) may temporarily outpace crystal realignment, especially below 10°C/50°F.
▶ Voltage Control Challenges
Cost-driven designs may use simplified drive circuits, causing delayed voltage adjustments and residual charge in pixels.
▶ Static Content Exposure
Prolonged display of high-contrast static elements (UI elements/logos) can create short-term "memory" effects, easily resolved via screen refresh.
3. MAXEN‘s Anti-Ghosting Innovations
Our IPS displays integrate cutting-edge technologies to combat ghosting:
✅ Dynamic OverDrive Pro™
Intelligently adjusts voltage pulses frame-by-frame to accelerate response without inverse ghosting.
✅ Thermal Stability Architecture
Wide-temperature-range (-20°C to 70°C) liquid crystal formulation maintains <8ms GTG response even in cold environments.
✅ Pixel Refresh Algorithm
Automatically detects static elements and applies micro-shifts/pixel cycling to prevent image retention.
4. User Best Practices
Daily Usage
▶ Set sleep timer to 15 mins for static-heavy workflows (CAD/office use).
▶ Keep brightness ≤120 nits for general use (HDR activates auto-optimization).
Gaming/Video Optimization
▶ Enable "Ultra Response Mode" in OSD for dynamic OD tuning.
▶ Allow 5-min warm-up in cold environments.
