MAX9679
12-Channel, 10-Bit Programmable Gamma
and VCOM Reference Voltages
General Description
The MAX9679 provides multiple programmable
reference voltages for gamma correction in TFT LCDs
and a programmable reference voltage for VCOM
adjustment. All gamma and VCOM reference voltages
have a 10-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and high-
current buffer, which reduces the recovery time of the
output voltages when critical levels and patterns are
displayed. A programmable internal reference sets the
full-scale voltage of the DACs.
Two independent sets of gamma curves and VCOM
codes can be stored in the IC's volatile memory; BKSEL
signal selects between the two sets.
The IC has multiple-time programmable (MTP) memory
to store gamma and VCOM codes on the chip, eliminat-
ing the need for external EEPROM.

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.
