320RGB x 240 a-Si TFT LCD Driver
Integrated Power Circuit, Gate and Source Driver

SSD2118 is an all in one a-Si TFT driver that integrated the power circuits, gate driver and source driver into single chip. It can drive a 16.7M / 262k / 8 color a-TFT panel with resolution of 320 RGB x 240. The interface follows 6/8 bit serial and 18/24 bit parallel RGB input signals and digital control timing signals.

It embeds DC-DC Converter and Voltage generator to provide all necessary voltage required by the driver with minimum external components. A Common Voltage Generation Circuit is included to drive the TFT-display counter electrode. SSD2118 supports RGB Gamma settings. An Integrated Gamma Control Circuit is also included that can be adjusted by software commands to provide maximum flexibility and optimal display quality.

The driver can be operated down to 1.6V and provide different power save modes. It is suitable for any portable battery-driven applications requiring long operation period with compact size.
