6/8/10-Channel, 10-Bit, Nonvolatile Programmable
Gamma and VCOM Reference Voltages
5/MAX967
General Description
Features
The MAX9665/MAX9666/MAX9667 provide multiple
programmable reference voltages for gamma correc-
tion in TFT LCDs and a programmable reference volt-
age for VCOM adjustment. All gamma and VCOM
reference voltages have a 10-bit digital-to-analog con-
verter (DAC) and buffer with high peak current. This
reduces the recovery time of the output voltage when
critical levels and patterns are displayed.
o 6/8/10 Channels Gamma Correction, 10-Bit
Resolution
o VCOM Driver
o Integrated Multiple-Time Programmable Memory
o DAC Reference Input
o Single-Wire and I2C Programming of VCOM
These devices include multiple-time programmable
(MTP) memory to store gamma and VCOM codes on
the chip, eliminating the need for external EEPROM.
The MTP memory supports up to 300 write operations.
Reference
o 950mA Peak Transient Current on VCOM Channel
The MAX9665/MAX9666/MAX9667 feature an I2C inter-
face to control the programmable reference voltages
and a single-wire interface to toggle the VCOM refer-
ence voltage up or down.
