LED BLUs to only cost 1.5x more than CCFL in 2008

LED makers from Taiwan project that the cost of LED backlight units (BLUs) will shrink to 1.5 times that of CCFL-based units during late 2008.

Despite that the current penetration rate of LED-backlit notebooks barely exceeds 10% due to LED patent issues and insufficient LED chip supplies, many industry players and research firms project that the rate will rise in the 10~20% range in 2008.

Everlight Electronics and Lite-On Technology have extended their deployments over LED backlighting, while Epistar is also expected to provide LED OEM production from the second half of 2008.
