Abstract: A source driver and a Gamma correction method thereof with lower layout area and preferred Gamma correction performance are provided. The source driver includes a Gamma correction unit, a latch unit, and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The Gamma correction unit receives an original image data, and converts the original image data to a corresponding corrected image data. The latch unit is coupled to the Gamma correction unit. The DAC is coupled to the latch unit, so as to convert the corrected image data to a corresponding analog drive signal. In the Gamma correction method, first, a correction unit to correct an original image data to a corresponding corrected image data is provided, and the corrected image data is converted into a corresponding analog drive signal.

Abstract: A gate driver is provided. The gate driver generates a original signal by a signal generator, and then the original signal into a plurality of signal parts by a demultiplexer and the signal parts are transmitted into a corresponding gate channel in order to reduce the number of shift registers and level shifters of front-end circuit. Thus, the manufacturing cost of the gate driver and the space occupation of the chip can be effectively reduced.

Abstract: A buffer amplifier for source driver is disclosed. The buffer amplifier has an N-channel differential amplifier and a P-channel differential amplifier as its input stages so as to achieve rail-to-rail input, and a class AB amplifier to push-pull the output stage so as to achieve rail-to-rail output. The output stage of the buffer amplifier is capable of larger charge/discharge, is faster, and has equal charge/discharge time. More importantly, the buffer amplifier has advantages such as lower power consumption, higher slew rate, and a more stable output.

Abstract: A current bias circuit and a current bias start-up circuit thereof are disclosed. The bias start-up circuit supplies a compensation current to the bias circuit to compensate the leakage current of the current bias circuit during activation and turns off the compensation current after start-up. Accordingly, the bias start-up circuit could compensate the leakage current of the current bias circuit and the bias start-up circuit could reduce the power consumption.

The amplifier unit is coupled to the offset cancellation unit, so as to switch an input terminal signal and a feedback path of the amplifier unit according to the control signal output by the offset cancellation unit, thereby canceling the offsets of the amplifier apparatus.

The second and the third transistors are controlled by the second output terminal of the P-type comparator and the output terminal of the first inverter, respectively, so that the second voltage line charges/discharges the output load.
