While there are many different manufacturers of LCD monitors, the panels themselves are actually only manufactured by a relatively small selection of companies. There are several main manufacturers including Samsung, AU Optronics, LG.Display (previously LG.Philips), CMO and CPT. Below are links to our comprehensive a databases of all the current, and many historic, panel modules manufactured in each diagonal. These show the module number along with important information including panel technology and a detailed spec. This should provide a detailed list of panels used, and can give you some insight into what is used in any given LCD display. 

We also have an extensive database showing what panels are used in LCD screens, available here.

Our panel parts database is available for:

• Desktop Displays and Monitors
