Answering Your Questions About JDI's EOL & Factory Transition Announcements

JDI will be moving production from the Tottori Fab to a new facility in Mobara, Japan.

The Tottori facility is a G4 facility, which has lower productivity and cost competitiveness compared to the newer G6 facilities. In addition, the Amorphous Silicon panels are experiencing lower demand from customers. JDI decided to end production at Tottori to better respond to customer needs with the newer Low Temperature Poly Silicon panels at the new facility in Mobara.

The old panels, which were Amorphous Silicon, will now transfer to a Low Temperature Poly Silicon, meaning some customers may have to adjust their timing and firmware and/or hardware to support this change.
