Abstract
This study proposes a thin- film-transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) column driver architecture with double time-division multiplexi ng (TDM) resistor-string dig- ital-to-analog converters (RDA Cs). A row of sample-and-hold circuits is used as a multiplexer to obtain a high multiplex ratio without requiring low temperature polysilicon TFTs on the display panel. The double TDM operation is proposed to compensate for the kickback noise produced by the output buffer. To improve the linearity of the DAC and the uniformity of the column driver, quasibootstrapped switches are u s e di nt h em u l t i p l e x e rt oc o n n e c t the DACs and output buffers. The column driver prototype was implemented by using 0.35 m/0.5 m CMOS technology with a worst positive-polarity di fferential nonlinearity/integral nonlinearity (DNL/INL) of 0.77/0.77 LSB and a negative-polarity DNL/INL of 0.79/0.79 LSB. The average data conversion rate of the RDAC is 18.2 MSPS and the die area per channel is only 0.017 mm .
