Head-Up Display system makes it possible for the driver to be informed of important vehicle data such as vehicle speed, engine RPM or navigation data without taking the driver's eyes off the road. Long focal length optics, LCD with bright illumination, image generator and vehicle interface controllers are key parts of head-up display system. All these parts have been designed, developed and applied to the test vehicle. Virtual images are located about 2m ahead of the driver's eye by projecting it onto the windshield just below the driver's line of sight. Developed head-up display system shows satisfactory results for future commercialization.

Gate and data drivers are essential for driving active matrix display. In this study, we integrate drivers with a-Si:H to develop a compact, better reliability and cost effective display. We design and fabricate drivers with conventional a-Si:H thin film transistors (TFTs). The output voltages are investigated according to the input voltage, temperature and operation time. Based on these studies, we propose here a new driver to prevent gate line from the floated state. For the external coupled voltage fluctuation, the proposed driver shows better stability.

This paper investigated a gate driver circuit with amorphous silicon for mobile TFT-LCD. In the conventional circuit, the fluctuation of the off-state voltage causes the fluctuation of gate line voltages in the panel and then image quality becomes worse. Newly designed gate driver circuit with dynamic switching inverter and carry out signal reduce the fluctuation of the off-state voltage because dynamic switching inverter is holding the off-state voltage and the delay of carry signal is reduced. The simulation results show that the proposed a-Si:H gate driver has low noise and high stability compared with the conventional one.

We have succeeded in producing the world $1^{st}$ TFT LCD panel adapting the data line sharing method. In the data line sharing structure, two neighboring pixels share one data line. We also adapted time shared data driving with a-Si TFT based circuit integration technology of LG Display's own. By using these technologies, we can reduce the number of source driver ICs by half, compared to that of the existing gate driver integrated TFT LCD panel.

In this paper, a driver system is designed and implemented to achieve 4-level gray scale CH TFEL(Thin Film ElectroLuminescent) flat panel display. To implement the driver system, commercial EL driver IC chips are used to apply high voltage pulses to the EL panel and a high voltage switching circuit is designed for the EL driver IC. A new method of reducing storage delay time of transistor is proposed to obtain a reliable switching circuit. The controller for EL driver and switching circuit is also designed. The designed driving scheme applicable to EL display with 4-level gray scale is based on the linear characteristics of brightness vs. frequency of AC TFEL. By experiment, it has been shown that the brightness of AC TEFL display with the implemented driving system is controlled by the level of gray scale.

Silicon-based 0.69-inch AMOEL microdisplay with integrated driver and timing controller circuits for microdisplay applications has been developed using 0.35 ${\mu}m$ l-poly 4-metal standard CMOS process with 5 V CMOS devices and CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) technology. To reduce the large data programming time consumed in a conventional current programming pixel circuit technique and to achieve uniform display, de-amplifying current mirror pixel circuit and the current-mode data driver circuit with threshold roltage compensation are proposed. The proposed current-mode data driver circuit is inherently immune to the ground-bouncing effect. The Monte-Carlo simulation results show that the proposed current-mode data driver circuit has channel-to-channel non-uniformity of less than ${\pm}$0.6 LSB under ${\pm}$70 mV threshold voltage variaions for both NMOS and PMOS transistors, which gives very good display uniformity.

A 14.1" XGA (1024${\times}$768) LCD panel with Integrated Black Data Insertion (IBDI) has been world first developed successfully based on the integrated amorphous Silicon TFT gate driver which we previously introduced. The notable features compared with the conventional integrated a-Si TFT gate driver circuit are that the circuit consists of Dual buffer, Carry buffer structure, and Q-node cross charging for stable signal scanning characteristic and prevention of coupling between signal lines.

We developed an a-Si TFT-LCD panel with integrated gate driver circuit using a standard 5-MASK process. To minimize the effect of the a-Si TFT current and LC's capacitance variation with temperature, we developed a new a-Si TFT circuit structure and minimized coupling capacitance by changing vertical architecture above gate driver circuit. Integration of gate driver circuit on glass substrate enables single chip and 3-side free panel structure in a-Si TFT-LCD of QVGA ($240{\times}320$) resolution. And using double ASG structure the dead space of TFT-LCD panel could be further decreased.
