1.G085VW01 V0 Production Suspension Notice
Dear users and partners:
Thank you for your long-term trust and support in AUO's industrial LCD screen products.
We hereby officially announce that the AU 8.5-inch wide temperature industrial LCD screen G085VW01 V0 has been discontinued by the original factory of AU. Since its mass production in Q2 2010, this model has been widely validated in industrial HMI, vehicle terminals, medical equipment, outdoor terminals, and other fields due to its 300nit brightness, -30~85 ℃ ultra wide temperature working range, and replaceable backlight design.
G085VW01 V0 was mass-produced in Q2 2010 and discontinued in Q3 2018. The current production status is discontinued. Please prioritize evaluating alternative solutions for new project development, and complete the transition as soon as possible for long-term projects.

3. Shutdown alternative plan
3.1.G085VW01 V0 has been discontinued, alternative options are provided below:
Alternative selection | Model/Brand | Brightness | Interface | Operating Temperature |
Highlight upgrade | Kyocera TCG085WVLQDPNN-GN00 | 400 nits | LVDS | -20 ~ 70 °C |
Same series substitution | G085VW01 V3 | 350 nits | CMOS | -20 ~ 70 °C |
3.2. Detailed comparison of alternative models
Kyocera TCG085WVLQDPNN-GN00
Comparison item | G085VW01 V0 | Kyocera TCG085WVLQDPNN-GN00 | Difference Description |
Size | 8.5" | 8.5" | Same |
Resolution | 800×480 | 800×480 | Same |
Brightness | 300 nits | 400 nits | ⬆Increase by 33% |
Interface | CMOS | LVDS | Different interfaces |
Advantages: Kyocera TCG085WVLQDPNN-GN00 has higher brightness (400nit) and better display effect.
Attention: The interface is LVDS (prototype number is CMOS), and the compatibility of the motherboard interface needs to be confirmed when switching.
4. G085VW01 V0 Core Upgrade Value
4.1 Technical Highlights Review
The core advantage of G085VW01 V0 lies in its wide temperature design and replaceable backlight structure：
Feature | Parameter | Customer value |
Ultra wide temperature design | -30℃ ~ 85℃ | Adapt to cold/high temperature environments, meet harsh scenarios such as outdoor, in car, and industrial control |
High brightness | 300 cd/m² | Clearly visible indoors and semi outdoors |
Backlight replaceable | Replaceable design | LED backlight strip can be replaced on-site to extend the service life of the module |
CMOS/TTL interface | 40-pin Parallel | Compatible with old industrial motherboards, suitable for repairing and replacing old equipment |
Foggy anti glare | 3H hardness coating | Reduce ambient light reflection |
180 ° Flip Display | Support | Flexible installation direction |
Including LED driver | Integrated driver | No need for an external backlight driver board, simplifying the design |
5. Application scenarios
G085VW01 V0 and its alternative models are widely used in the following scenarios:
Application field | Specific scenario | Reasons for selection |
