The purpose of this paper was to find out the stabilized and effective value of RC-parameter by using PSpice simulation, considering that gate signal voltage can be distorted by RC-delay of signal line. the results of this study were as follows: TFT-LCD with high quality resolution increased the number of gate signal line and this made TFT on-time shorter over-width of signal line to improve the performance of TFT made the electrostatic capacity increase and the time constant higher, making problems and errors. and owing to the decrease of the aperture ratio, an electro optic character of LCD, we must consider the capacity and the condition of production process in deciding the width and the thickness of the gate signal line.

최근, Low-temperature Poly-Si(LTPS) TFT시장이 새롭게 형성됨에 따라 저온결정화 기술 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나, 기존의 저온결정화방법에 비해 수율이 높고 생산단가를 낮출 수 있으며 대 면적 프로세스 적용이 가능한 결정화공정개발이 시급히 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 TFT-LCD array를 구성하고 있는 데이터 라인과 ITO 공통 전극이 개별 트랜지스터의 소스와 드레인에 연결되어있다는 점에 착안하여, 전계를 이용한 방향성유도결정화법(Field Aided Lateral Crystallization)을 이에 적용하였으며 채널영 역의 균일한 결정화를 위하여 컨택홀의 모양에 변화를 주어 결정화 실험을 진행하였다. 이 방법은 간단한 공정(TFT-LCD way를 통한 전계 인가 및 열처리)으로 패널내의 모든 채널영 역을 균일하게 결정화할 수 있을 것으로 기대되는 방식이다.

A stepwise driving method was used for reducing the AC power consumption in a TFT-LCD. The AC power takes the largest portion of the total power consumption of a TFT-LCD. Experimental results confirmed that the AC power saving efficiency reached up to 75% when a 5-stepwise driving with each step time of $2\mu$ sec was applied to a 14.1 inch-diagonal XGA TFT-LCD. The second largest component of power consumption called the DC power comes from the quiescent currents in Op-amps. A simple and efficient architecture was proposed in this work to reduce this DC power consumption: Half of the Op-amps have the 5V-supplies, and the rest half have the 10V-supplies, and two Op-amps are shared by adjacent two channels. Measurements of test circuits showed that this simple method could reduce over 40% of the DC power consumption..

A new method for array testing of TFT-CD panel with the integrated gate driver circuits is presented. As larger size/high resolution TFT-LCD with the peripheral driver circuits has emerged, one of the important problems for manufacturing is array testing on the panel. This paper describes the technology of detecting defective arrays and optimizing the array testing process. For the effective characterization of pixel array, the pixel storage capability is simulated and measured with voltage imaging system. This technology permits full functional testing during the manufacturing process, enabling fabrication of large TFT-LCD panels with the integrated driver circuits.

TFT-LCD simulator, PDAST(Pixel Design Array Simulation Tool) could simulate the effect of the variation on the pixel characteristics. Since feed-through voltage in TFT-LCD can be a serious problem to pixel voltage characteristics, it should be compensated. It is applicable to various kinds of TFT-LCDs and can be used to calculate the spontaneous part of common electrode voltage accurately. Also, PDAST can estimate pixel voltage according to various inversion methods. It allows high-speed calculation and the information obtained from this study could be utilized to design the larger area and finer image quality panel.

본 논문에서는 TFT-LCD 구동 IC 모듈의 소형화측면에서 유리한 DC-DC 변환기 회로인 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 비중첩 부스트-클락 전하펌프 (Non-overlap Boosted-Clock Charge Pump: NBCCP) 회로가 제안되었다 .2VDC 전압으로 스윙하는 비중첩 부스트-클럭의 사용으로 기존의 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 크로스-커플드 전하펌프에 비해 펌핑 단의 수를 반으로 줄일 수 있었고, 전하 펌핑 노드의 펌핑된 전하가 입력 단으로 역류되는 현상을 방지하였다 . 그 결과 제안된 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 비중첩 부스트-클럭 전하펌프 회로는 기존의 펌핑 커패시터 내장형 크로스-커플드 전하펌프에 비해 펌핑 전류가 증가하였고, 레이아웃 면적은 감소되었다. 제안된 TFT-LCD 구동 IC용 DC-DC 변환기 회로를 $0.18{\mu}m$ Triple-Well CMOS 공정을 사용하여 설계하고, 테스트 칩을 제작 중에 있다.

TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display) module is representative commercial product of FPD(Flat Panel Display). Thickness of TFT-LCD module is very thin. It is adopted for major display unit for IT devices such as Cellular Phone, Camcorder, Digital camera and etc. Due to the harsh user environment of mobile IT devices, it requires complicated structure and tight assembly. And user requirements for the mechanical functionalities of TFT-LCD module become more strict. However, TFT-LCD module is normally weak to high level transient mechanical shock. Since it uses thin crystallized panel. Therefore, anti-shock performance is classified as one of the most important design specifications. Traditionally, the product reliability against mechanical shock is confirmed by empirical method in the design-prototype-drop/impact testredesign paradigm. The method is time-consuming and expensive process. It lacks scientific insight and quantitative evaluation. In this article, a systematic design evaluation of TFT-LCD module for mobile IT devices is presented with combinations of FEA and testing to support the optimal shock proof display design procedure.

For the large-sized and post-ultra definition TFT-LCD, improved drivability is prerequisite not only for the integration of driving circuit on glass but also for the chargeability of each pixel. In order to meet required drivability, currently adopted process architecture and materials are modified for the RC delay reduction, including the drastic increase of gate bus thickness and its related solution for step coverage. We present new process architecture and material selection for the next generation TFT-LCD devices.

A 15.4" WXGA TFT-LCD, featuring integrated a-Si:H gate driver circuits and reduced data driver ICs, has been developed. To reduce number of data lines into 1/2 of conventional structure, the pixel array has been re-mapped with re-organized data signal. Unintended artificial effects such as flicker were removed by adopting the novel pixel array having a 'zigzag' map. To minimize the power consumption, a column inversion method was incorporated in the zigzag pixel array (Fig.1) without modifying the polarity map of conventional dot inversion method.

This paper presents a new data line sharing technique for TFT-LCD panels. This technique reduces the number of data driver IC's to half by having two adjacent pixels share the same data line. This in turn doubles the number of gate lines, which are integrated directly on the glass substrate of amorphous silicon for further cost reduction and more compactness. The proposed technique with new pixel array structure was applied to 15.4 inch WXGA TFT-LCD panels and has proven that the number of driver IC's were halved with nearly 41% circuit cost reduction and 5.3% reduction in power consumption without degrading the image quality.
