최근에는 LCD가 부착된 소형 임베디드 기기들이 많아지고 있다. 이러한 기기들은 대부분 저성능을 보이는데, 본 논문에서는 이러한 저성능 임베디드 시스템에서 동작하는 2차원 그래픽스 모듈을 제작한다. 타깃 시스템에서 가장 취약한 부분은 메모리 용량의 제한이었고, 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 문자(text)를 기반으로 한 윈도우 모듈을 제안한다. 초기의 문자 기반 컴퓨터 인터페이스들 중의 하나인 Unix Curses 라이브러리를 참고하여, 팝업 메뉴와 터치 스크린이 가능한 윈도우 시스템을 설계하여, 구현하였다. 타깃 시스템은 $240{\times}320$의 픽셀 해상도에서, 20KB 이하의 메모리를 사용하면서, 팝업메뉴, 버튼, 멀티-윈도우, 터치방식 인터페이스 등을 제공하는 성능을 보였다.

A cross-coupled charge pump with internal pumping capacitor, witch is advantages from a point of minimizing TFT-LCD driver IC module, is newly proposed in this paper. By using a NMOS and a PMOS diode connected to boosting node from VIN node, the pumping node is precharged to the same value each pumping node at start pumping operation. Since the lust-stage charge pump is designed differently from the other stage pumps, a back current of pumped charge from charge pumping node to input stage is prevented. As a pumping clock driver is located the font side of pumping capacitor, the driving capacity is improved by reducing a voltage drop of the pumping clock line from parasitic resistor. Finally, a layout area is decreased more compared with conventional cross-coupled charge pump by using a stack-MIM capacitors. A proposed charge pump for TFT-LCD driver IC is designed with $0.13{\mu}m$ triple-well DDI process, fabricated, and tested.

In this study, cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) was synthesized and applied as a polarizing component on the optical film of back light units (BLU) for LCDs. After mixing CLC with nematic liquid crystal, this mixture was fulfilled in the module consisting of two films and then its amplifying efficiency and polarizing ability for a planarly emitted light were examined to apply as a BLU polarizer film for increasing the brightness of light. The properties of CLC compound were tested by UV/Visible spectroscopy and polarizing optical microscopy (POM). Flexible spacer was made by linear carboxylic acid group of cholesteric derivatives between cholesterol mesogen units for one-axis orientation in each layer. The CLC containing film could be used as a module to increase the ability of polarization and to enhance brightness of BLU and to widen wavelength range by stacking the films.

Although Korean domestic production of flat panel displays totalled more than 48 trillion KRW in 2007, most of the flat panel display wastes have been land-filled or incinerated, which greatly overshadows Korean national prestige as a world leading producer and developer of flat panel display devices. Countries such as Japan or EU possess quite limited land-fill capability and have sought ways to dispose of WEEEs from environment-friendly perspective rather than recovery of valuable materials from the wastes. Considering relatively short cycle of about 5 years for flat panel display devices, it is estimated that more than 5 million units will be accumulated as wastes by 2015. Urban mining is a most suitable countermeasures against China's monopoly of rare and rare earth metals, which are contained in flat panel display wastes. Therefore, materials recycling of waste LCD units has to be developed and commercialized soon enough for economic and environment-friendly recovery of valuable resources hidden in LCD wastes.

In case of an embedded system having an LCD panel with touch-screen capability, various figures such as rectangles, pentagons, circles, and arrows are frequently used for the delivery of user-input commands. In such a case, it is necessary to have an algorithm that can recognize whether a touched location is within a figure on which a specific user-input command is assigned. Such algorithms, however, impose a considerable amount of overhead for embedded systems with restricted amount of computing resources. This paper first describes a method for initializing and driving a touch-screen LCD and a coordinate-calibration method that converts touch-screen coordinates into LCD panel coordinates. Then it introduces methods that can be used for recognizing touched areas of rectangles, many-sided figures like pentagons, and circles; they are a range checking method for rectangles, a crossing number checking method for many-sided figures, a distance measurement method for circles, and a color comparison method that can be applied to all figures. In order to evaluate the performance of these methods, we implement two-dimensional graphics functions for drawing figures like triangles, rectangles, circles, and images. Then, we draw such figures and measures times spent for the touched-area recognition of these figures. Measurements show that the range checking is the most suitable method for rectangles, the distance measurement for circles, and the color comparison for many-sided figures and images.

To evaluate the feasibility of electrodialysis for nitrate-nitrogen removal from wastewater, the effect of operating parameters on the removal of nitrate-nitrogen was experimentally estimated. The limiting current density (LCD) linearly increased with the nitrate concentration and the flow rate. The time when the nitrate concentration of diluate reached at 20 mg/L was linearly proportional to concentration of diluate, and the concentration of concentrate did not affect the removal rate. Increase in the flow rate gave a positive effect on the removal rate and became insignificant at How rates greater than 1.6 L/min. The removal rate increased with the applied voltage, but the increment in the removal rate decreased as the applied voltage approached the LCD. From the operation of the electrodialysis module used in this research, the flow rate of 1.6 L/min and the voltage corresponding to the 80~90% of LCD were found be the optimum operating condition for the nitrate removal from highly concentrated nitrate-nitrogen solutions.

In this paper, a wireless video streaming system is designed and implemented for TV white space applications. It consists of a RF transceiver module, a digital modem, a camera, and a LCD screen. A VGA resolution video is captured by a camera, modulated by modem, and transmitted by RF transceiver module, and finally displayed at a destination 2.6-inch LCD screen. The RF transceiver is based on direct-conversion architecture. Image leakage is improved by low pass filtering LO, which successfully covers the TVWS. Also, DC offset problem is solved by current steering techniques which control common mode level at DAC output node. The output power of the transmitter and the minimum sensitivity of the receiver is +10 dBm and -82 dBm, respectively. The channel bandwidth is tunable among 6, 7 and 8 MHz according to regulations and standards. Digital modem is realized in Kintex-7 FPGA. Data rate is 9 Mbps based on QPSK and 512ch OFDM. A VGA video is successfully streamed through the air by using the developed TV white-space RF communication module.
