  • Patent number: 9093244
    Abstract: A method for routing gamma voltages in a flat panel display that includes a plurality of source driver integrated circuits (SDICs) each having a plurality of gamma buffers. The method includes forming routing lines to route a plurality of gamma voltages; connecting the routing lines to output terminals of the gamma buffers; applying the reset gamma voltage to the gamma buffer of selected SDIC after selecting the SDIC in which the gamma voltage is required to be reset in consideration of heating values of the SDICs, and changing connection between a routing line corresponding to the selected gamma buffer and a tap point of a resistor string of the SDIC such that the connection corresponds to the reset gamma voltage.

  • Publication number: 20100141687
    Abstract: Provided are a method of arranging gamma buffers capable of decreasing a Kelvin of a source driver included in a flat panel display and minimizing a temperature deviation between source drivers, and the flat panel display applying the method. The method of arranging a plurality of gamma buffers which are arranged in one or more source drivers to output corresponding gamma voltages, includes a step of calculating power consumptions of the gamma buffers, wherein the method further comprises one or more steps of: changing tab points of the gamma buffers by using the calculated power consumptions of the gamma buffers; and changing positions of the gamma buffers by using the calculated power consumptions of the gamma buffers.
