GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADD8733 is a 4-channel regulator with two VCOM
amplifiers and gate pulse modulation (GPM) that provides
all the necessary voltages for thin film transistor (TFT) liquid
crystal displays (LCD). Included is a step-up regulator, a step-
down regulator for digital logic, two VCOM amplifiers, two
charge-pump regulators for VGH and VGL, and an integrated
gate pulse modulator.
By offering a complete power integration solution optimized for
TFT LCD TVs and monitors, the ADD8733 helps to lower cost,
simplify board design, and increase performance over existing
solutions.
The ADD8733 is offered in a 48-lead RoHS compliant LFCSP
and is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C
to +85°C.
