(Hong
Kong - 7 Aug 2006) Solomon Systech Limited, a world
leader in advanced display technology, announced today
that it has successfully developed a highly integrated
single chip driver, the SSD2116, for portable 262K color
AV TFT displays in landscape QVGA resolution. Compared
with the industry's two-chip approach, the SSD2116
integrates source driver, gate driver and external power
chip into a single chip solution. Combined with Solomon
Systech's proprietary Mini-RGB high-speed interface for
power and EMI improvement, the SSD2116 is definitely a
cutting edge device in the market.
The
new SSD2116 is not only limited to cellular phone
applications, but also aims to support the demanding
portable Audio Visual market. Compared with the
conventional TFT driver, the SSD2116 provides three sets
of programmable Gamma curves to separately calibrate the
Red, Green and Blue channels in the panel. With
precisely calibrated RGB channels, the display panel can
replicate complex color, such as human skin tone, that
cannot be easily reproduced by an ordinary TFT driver.
Solomon
Systech clearly sees the market trend for the AV TFT
display. Panel makers opt for improvements in the
panel's viewing angle. The SSD2116 delivers higher
liquid crystal driving voltage to align with the new
generation wide view angle TFT technologies. This
feature enables state-of-the-art panel makers to
differentiate their products in the market.
To
support larger display being squeezed in a handheld
device of slim design, the dimension of SSD2116 has been
tightened to a very high aspect ratio of 22 and
therefore the contact ledge of the panel can be
minimized. In addition, the SSD2116 adopts a super thin
die design to synchronize with market requirement on
panel thickness. Now, product designers can redefine
their products with this extra advantage to get ready
for the next wave of "slim".
Because
of these exceptional features, the SSD2116 is ready to
serve the booming AV TFT market including Portable Media
Players, car navigation systems and mobile devices with
embedded browsers, DMB and email capabilities.
