The device generates all 3 voltage rails for the TFT
LCD bias (Vs, VGL and VGH). In addition to that it
includes a step-down converter and a LDO controller
to provide two logic voltage rails. The device
incorporates a high voltage switch that can be
controlled by a logic signal from the external timing
controller (TCON). This function allows gate voltage
shaping for VGH. The device also features a high
voltage stress test where the output voltage of VGH
is set to typically 30 V and the output voltage of Vs is
programmable to any higher voltage. The high
voltage stress test is enabled by pulling the HVS pin
high. The device consists of a boost converter to
provide the source voltage Vs operating at a fixed
switching frequency of 750 kHz. A fully integrated
positive charge pump, switching automatically
between doubler and tripler mode provides an
adjustable regulated TFT gate on voltage VGH. A
negative charge pump driver provides adjustable
regulated output voltages VGL. To minimize external
components the charge pumps for VGH and VGL
operate at a fixed switching frequency of 1.5 MHz.
The device includes safety features like overvoltage
protection of the boost converter, short-circuit
protection of VGH and VGL as well as thermal
shutdown.
