19-5000; Rev 4; 7/10
6/8/10-Channel, 10-Bit, Nonvolatile Programmable
Gamma and VCOM Reference Voltages
General Description
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.
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.
The MAX9665/MAX9666/MAX9667 feature an I
2
C inter-
face to control the programmable reference voltages
and a single-wire interface to toggle the VCOM refer-
ence voltage up or down.

Note 1:
Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-
layer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to
www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
