Dual High-Voltage Scan Drivers for TFT LCD
General Description
The MAX17121 includes two high-voltage level-shifting
scan drivers for TFT panel integrated gate logic. Each
scan driver has two channels that switch complementa-
rily. The scan-driver outputs swing from +40V to -30V and
can swiftly drive capacitive loads. In order to save power,
the scan driver’s complementary outputs share the
charge of their capacitive load before they change states.
The MAX17121 is available in a 24-pin, 4mm x 4mm, thin
QFN package with a maximum thickness of 0.8mm for
ultra-thin LCD panels.

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.
