Chunghwa Picture Tubes, LTD. (CPT) has developed a Novel TFT-LCD Driving Techniquel. This new technique is developed in combination with other state-of-the-art image processing solutions such as image compression / decompression, motion detection, and noise reduction. By applying the Novel Driving Technique to the high resolution TFT-LCD, it was found that the response time can be effectively reduced with a lower overall system cost by smaller frame memory requirement, lower EMI by less memory band-width. Likewise, higher display quality can also be achieved in that the unexpected noises generated by over-drive can be eliminated. The Novel TFT-LCD Driving Technique has been successfully implemented to the 30 inch WXGA (1280${\times}$768) resolution TFT LCD commercial TV module. It was found that the quality of moving picture was better improved compared with that of the conventional fast response driving method.

We have developed a novel driving method, Six times Rate Driving(SRD) for the purpose of making cost competitive TFT-LCD. By applying SRD method to an a-Si TFT-LCD, the driving rate was increased six times as it was named but the number of data lines and so its D-Ics were reduced to one sixth of the conventional one which resulted in the cost saving of that much. We also newly designed the gate driver in order to avoid any expansion of the bezel width caused by applying SRD. Our newly developed driving technology, SRD was successfully applied to 7.0-inch WSVGA (1024 ${\times}$ 600) TFT-LCD which can be driven with only one data D-IC and here introduced.

This paper classifies driving technologies for AMOLEDs by the driving TFT conditions in pixels. A saturation region operation type driving TFT circuit provides good stability of OLED because of constant current drive. However, complicated compensation circuits are necessary to avoid effect of the TFT characteristics deviation. On the other hand, a linear region operation type driving TFT circuit provides better uniformity of the display image and lower power consumption. However, the stability of OLED is critical because of constant voltage drive.

In recent years, attempts have been made to greatly improve the display quality of active-matrix liquid crystal display devices, and many techniques have been proposed to solve such problems as gate signal delay, feed-through voltage and image sticking. To improve these problems which are caused by the fried-through voltage, we have evaluated new driving methods to reduce the fled-through voltage. Two level gate-pulse was used for the gate driving of the cst-on-common structure pixels. And two-gate line driving methods with the optimized gate signals were applied for the cst-on-gate structure pixels. These gate driving methods were better feed-through characteristics than conventional simple gate pulse. The evaluation of the suggested driving methods were performed by using a TFT-LCD array simulator PDAST which can simulate the gate, data and pixel voltages of a certain pixel at any time and at any location on a TFT array. The effect of the new driving method was effectively analyzed.

In recent years, attempts have been made to greatly improve the display quality of active-matrix liquid crystal display devices, and many techniques have been proposed to solve such problems as gate delay, feed-through voltage and image sticking. Gate delay is one of the biggest limiting factors for large-screen-size, high-resolution thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT/LCD) design. Many driving method proposed for TFT/LCD progress. Thus we developed gate driving signal generator. Since Pixel-Design Array Simulation Tool (PDAST) can simulate the gate, data and pixel voltages of a certain pixel on TFT array at any time and at any location on an array, the effect of the driving signals of gate lines on the pixel operations can be effectively analyzed.

TFT-LCD is widely used for flat panel display. The large-size TFT-LCD panel requires a high speed driving and various driving methods because of signal delay, which is responsible for the shading effects. In this work, the floating and double driving methods are applied to Pixel Design Array Simulation Tool(PDAST) and the pixel characteristics of TFT-LCD array is simulated. Also, we have implemented the semi-empirical TFT model to PDAST, which makes to obtain a more accurate pixel characteristics.

In this paper we have designed the signal processing system for driving the Poly-Si TFT LCD of EWS. The signal processing system consist of timing controller, ramp signal generator and video signal processing system. Timing controller includes the top-down inversion. left right inversion, left-right shifting and control signal generator according to multi-source signal. The video signal processing system generates sawtooth-shaped waveform by using PROM and DAC for multi-gray scales and implements gamma correction function for compensating the TFT-LCD nonlinear charcteristic of the TFT-LCD. Finally we have discussed the experiment results and its application according to the designed TFT-LCD driving system.

본 논문에서는 진폭 변조와 펄스 폭 변조를 모두 사용하는 새로운 AMOLED 디스플레이 구동 방식을 개발하였다. 펄스 폭 변조를 위해서 다섯 개의 서브 프레임으로 화상 프레임을 나누었고 진폭 변조를 위해 TFT 게이트 전압에 의해 제어되는 3가지의 OLED 휘도(전류) 레벨을 사용하였다. 이 두 종류의 변조를 조합하여 35(=243) 계조를 얻었다. 그리고 DAC를 사용하지 않고 2개의 쉬프트 레지스터를 갖는 새로운 데이터 전극 구동 회로를 설계하였다. 회로 동작은 6㎛ 채널 길이 다결정 TFT의 전류-전압 특성에서 추출된 TFT 파라미터를 이용한 HSpice 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과로부터 320×240, 이중 스캔, 243 계조 AMOLED 디스플레이를 구현할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 mixed driving 방식을 이용하고 이미지 개선을 위해 $\gamma$-correction을 수행하는 QVGA급 TFT-LCD driver IC의 Source Driver를 설계한다. 240 RGB ${\times}$ 320 dots resolution을 가진 source driver는 720개의 채널을 통해 TFT-LCD 패널을 구동하고 18-bit의 RGB 데이터를 사용하여 26만 color를 수행한다. Mixed driving 방식은 종전의 좋은 구동력을 가진 channel amp. driving 방식에 저면적이 가능한 gray amp. driving 방식을 혼합한 방식으로서, 영상이 동일 색상을 가지는 worst case를 감지하여 구동력을 높여주는 방식을 사용함으로써 적절한 구동력과 저면적을 구현하는 설계방식이다. 본 Source Driver는 $0.35{\mu}m$ Magnachip embedded DRAM 공정을 사용하여 설계하였으며 Hspice를 사용하여 시뮬레이션을 하였다. 실험결과, 기존의 gayscale driving 방식에서는 hsync time을 만족시키지 못하는데 비해 $17{\mu}s$의 channel 구동시간으로 충분한 timing margin을 가지고 액정 channel 을 구동할 수 있으면서, 구동 앰프 78개와 제어회로를 갖는 저면적으로 설계되었다.
