Low Voltage Driving Of STN LCDs With Low Hardware Complexity For Portable Applications

چکیده
In passive matrix liquid crystal displays (PMLCDs), multiplexing is achieved by using intrinsic non-linear electro-optic characteristics of the displays. Supply voltage can be reduced considerably as compared to the conventional as well as multi-line addressing techniques by using displays with steep electro-optic characteristics. The technique is demonstrated by driving a display with the hybrid addressing technique (HAT) that has a low hardware complexity. A 35% reduction in supply voltage is achieved by using a display with steeper electro-optic characteristics than necessary for the application. The technique can be extended to display gray scales in combination with the successive approximation approach by using five multiplexers and a few voltage level generators (VLG) that are common to all the drivers in the display. It is a simple solution to reduce the hardware complexity, supply voltage and cost.

A High Efficiency Low-Voltage Soft Switching DC–DC Converter for Portable Applications
This paper presents a novel control method to improve the efficiency of low-voltage DC-DC converters at light loads. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) converters have poor efficiencies at light loads, while pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control is more efficient for the same cases. Switching losses constitute a major portion of the total power loss at light loads. To decrease the switching losses...
