Large size poly-Si TFT-LCDs have been fabricated using p-channel thin film transistors for notebook PC application. We have designed and implemented the data sampling circuit and gate drivers that operate with low power consumption and high reliability. The gate driver has a redundant structure. We have realized the uniform and excellent display quality comparable to that of CMOS module. The reliability of panel is investigated and discussed by measuring the bias stability of transistors.

In applying LCD to TV application, one of the most significant factors to be improved is image sticking on the moving picture. LCD is different from CRT in the sense that it's continuous passive device, whichholds images in entire frame period, while impulsetype device generate image in very short time. We realized articulate image generation similar to CRT by CCFL blinking drive and TN-LCD overdriving. As a result, reduced image sticking phenomenon was validated by naked eye and response time measureme.

Even though the TFT-LCD industry gained enough momentum that has been built up in past 10 years, the industry faces new challenges in order to maintain the 'true mainstream display' position in near future. The technical challenges can be summarized in two fold; one is image quality upgrade for different application area. Cost competitiveness is the other big issue in LCD for the continued leadership position in display industry. In this paper, we describe the technology advancement and the technical challenges in LCD to achieve these goals..

According the difference of flex substrate, (reel tape), there are three kind assembly types of LCD driver IC is COG, TCP and COF, respectively. The TCP is the maturest in these types for stability of raw material supply and other specification. And TCP is the major assembly type of LCD driver IC and the huge demand from Taiwan's large TFT LCD panel house since this spring. But due to its package structure and the raw material applied in this package, there is some limitation in fine pitch application of this package type, (TCP). So, COF will be very potential in compact and portable application comparison with TCP in the future. There are three kinds assembly methods in COF, one is ACF by using the anisotropic conductive film to connect the copper lead of tape and gold bump of IC, another is eutectic bonding by using the thermo-pressure to joint the copper lead of tape and gold bump of IC, and last is NCP by using non-conductive paste to adhere the copper lead of tape and gold bump of IC. To have a global realization, this paper will briefly review the status of Taiwan's large TFT panel house, the internal driver IC design house, and the back-end assembly house in the beginning. The different material property of raw material, PI tape is also compared in the paper. The more detail of three kinds of COF assembly method will be described and compared in this paper.

Sodium is a serious contamination in LTPS TFT process. It causes the abnormal characteristics of TFT in operation. Contaminated areas can be seen in SEM images, but EDX measurements do not have adequate sensitivity to confirm the presence of superficial sodium residues. We employed SIMS as a fast analysis method to map the non-uniform distribution of sodium on the surface. SIMS can also indicate the thickness of the contamination.

In applying LCD to TV application, one of the most significant factors to be improved is image sticking on the moving picture. LCD is different from CRT in the sense that it's continuous passive device, which holds images in entire frame period, while impulse type device generate image in very short time. To reduce image sticking problem related to hold type display mode, we made an experiment to drive TN-LCD like CRT. We made articulate images by turn on-off backlight, and we realized the ratio of Back Light on-off time by counting between on time and off time for video signal input during 1 frame (16.7 ms). Conventional CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamp) cannot follow fast on-off speed, so we evaluated new fluorescent substances of light source to improve residual light characteristic of CCFL. We realized articulate image generation similar to CRT by CCFL blinking drive and TN-LCD overdriving. As a result, reduced image sticking phenomenon was validated by naked eye and response time measurement.

This paper investigated the a-si:H gate driver with the stepwise gate signal. In 1-chip type mobile LCD application the stepwise gate signal for low power consumption can be used by adding simple switching circuit. The power consumption of the a-Si:H gate driver can be decreased by employing the stepwise gate signal in the conventional circuit. In conventional one, the effect of stepwise gate signal can decrease slew rate and increase the fluctuation of gate-off state voltage, In order to increase the slew rate and decrease the gate off state fluctuation, we proposed a new a-Si:H TFT gate driver circuit. The simulation data of the new circuit show that the slew rate and the gate-off state fluctuation are improved, so the circuit can work reliably.

New charge-recycling structure and driving scheme for TFT-LCD source-driver IC application are proposed. The number of additional switches for the charge recycling is greatly reduced. An experimental prototype 6-bit source driver with five-level seven-phase charge recycling implemented in a $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology demonstrates that the quiescent current is only 3.1 mA, dynamic power saving is 75 %, and the settling time, which includes the charge-recycling and data driving, is within 25 $25{\mu}s$.
