A-SI TFT Driver Solutions on WVGA and QVGA Display

Low cost solutions for smart mobile device

(Hong Kong – 16 Nov, 2010) Solomon ystech today announced two new members SSD2085 WVGA TFT Driver and SSD1268 QVGA TFT Driver to its LCD Driver Controller family. The two driver ICs targets smart mobile device applications with different display resolution. They support a-si TFT LCD panel with integrated power circuits, timing controller and source/gate drivers.

The new single chip SSD2085 TFT LCD driver is to capture the smart phone market with high resolution display. It supports a-si TFT LCD with 480RGBx864 WVGA resolutions. Most of the WVGA solutions in the market today come from AMOLED and LTPS technology, but are limited by production capacity and relatively high cost. SSD2085 adopts to the mature technology of a-si gateless TFT LCD so that the supply is guaranteed and cost is effective. Besides, it supports DC-VCOM to enhance the display performance, MDDI/MIPI interface to increase data transfer rate and Smart RAM Management (a proprietary technology from Solomon Systech) to achieve effective cost and power consumption reduction.

Another single chip SSD1268 QVGA TFT driver, succeed to SSD1266 introduced a year earlier, provides improvement on integrated capacitors function and reduces external capacitor required from 9 pieces to 4 pieces only. It carries unique features such as separated RGB gamma correction to optimize display and dynamic backlight control to reduce power consumption. SSD1268 supports 240RGBx320 new 14µm 2-line stagger platform in a-si TFT panel, with over five panel sources from Korea, Taiwan and China to ensure panel supply and capture the 2011 market growth.
