HD66351 (TFT Driver)
256-level Grayscale Driver for the TFT
Liquid Crystal Display for XGA/SXGA Systems
ADE-207-341
Rev.1.0
June 2001
Description
The HD66351 is a TFT driver LSI suitable for XGA and SXGA systems (eight HD66351s used). It
receives 8-bit-per-pixel digital display data, and generates and outputs voltages for 256 grayscales. The
output circuit includes an operational amplifier and is capable of alternating outputs of positive-polarity and
negative-polarity voltages on individual output pins. This results in a high-quality display with minimal
crosstalk.

Multicolor display
The HD66351 receives 8-bit-per-pixel digital display data, and selects and outputs a display voltage
from 256 grayscale voltages, enabling a maximum of 16,770,000 display colors when using R/G/B
color filters.
•
48 data bits (8 grayscale code bits

2 ports)
•
Dot inversion drive
The voltage can be alternated between positive polarity and negative polarity on individual output
pins, allowing a dot-by-dot inversion drive even with a single-sided layout configuration. This
provides a high-quality display with minimal crosstalk. Also, since both positive-polarity and
negative-polarity voltages are generated by an externally provided reference power supply, gamma
compensation is enabled according to the characteristics of the liquid crystal.
•
N-raster-row inversion drive
The polarity can be inverted by each N-raster-rows. The charge or discharge current under the TFT
load can be lowered and flicker on the specific display can be reduced.
•
Operational amplifier
The output circuit includes an operational amplifier, which enables the external reference power
supply circuit to be configured using only resistance ladders. In addition, use of the chopper-type
amplifier eliminates output voltage deviations between frames and ensures high-quality displays.

Bidirectional shift
•
