  • Patent number: 10594264
    Abstract: A dynamic amplifier includes a first output capacitor, a first switch, a current source, a second switch, a voltage detector, a third switch and a level shifter. The first switch is coupled between a first terminal of the first output capacitor and a voltage detection node. The second switch is coupled to the current source and the voltage detection node. The voltage detector is coupled to the voltage detection node and the first switch. The third switch is coupled between the voltage detection node and a power source. The level shifter is coupled to a second terminal of the first output capacitor.

  • Publication number: 20200020282
    Abstract: A source driver is configured to drive an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panel. The source driver includes a sensing circuit and an operational amplifier. The sensing circuit is configured to sense pixel information of an OLED pixel circuit through a sensing line of the OLED display panel. The operational amplifier includes an amplifier circuit and at least one switch circuit. The amplifier circuit includes at least one gain circuit. An input terminal of the amplifier circuit is coupled to an output terminal of the sensing circuit. Each of the at least one switch circuit is coupled between a pair of output terminals of a corresponding one of the at least one gain circuit.
