Abstract
This paper presents a low power dual-level low voltage differential signaling (DLVDS) technique using current source switching for LCD driver ICs in portable products. The transmitter makes dual level signal that has two different level signal 400mVpp and 250mVpp while keeping the advantages of LVDS. The decoding circuit recovers the primary signal from DLVDS. The low power DLVDS is implemented using a $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS process under 2.5V supply. The proposed circuit shows 800Mbps/2-line data rate and 9mW, 11.5mW power consumptions in transmitter and receiver, respectively. The proposed DLVDS scheme reduce power consumption dramatically compare with conventional one.
