Abstract(in English) There is an increasing need for simple and compact low-power drive solutions for TFT-LCD panels. This demand has led to the development of a nine-channel programmable high-drive reference generator which is appropriate for use with resistor-string DAC based TFT-LCD source drivers. This reference generator greatly simplifies the design and implementation of the external reference circuit required by resistor-string drivers. In addition, it requires less components than discrete implementations. Thus, less PC board space is used, and the reliability of the system is increased. Due to its ability to operate with low supply headrooms, this device also provides a lower power solution than can be achieved with discrete components. It can be used in both 3V and 5V systems and is manufactured in a low-power CMOS process. This reference generator interfaces to an external EEPROM which can be programmed with multiple sets of references voltages for optimization of contrast, power consumption or gamma correction.
