Patent number: 11004421Abstract: An operational amplifier circuit in a display apparatus which is fast-acting to prevent voltage overshoot comprises a pre-operational amplifier module, an output operational amplifier module, and an output module. Driving current from the pre-operational amplifier module is the basis of the output operational amplifier module generating a dynamic bias voltage to the output module. The output operational amplifier module detects the dynamic bias voltage and adjusts the bias voltage to be level with a specified voltage based on at least one control voltage. When the dynamic bias voltage is less than the specified voltage, the output operational amplifier module pulls up the bias voltage and when the bias voltage is larger than the specified voltage, the output operational amplifier module pulls down the bias voltage. The pull up and pull down speeds are proportional to the at least one control voltage.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Fitipower Integrated Technology, Inc.Inventor: Kun-Tsung Lin

Patent number: 7414464Abstract: An operational amplifier driver capable of canceling an offset voltage of an operational amplifier includes the operational amplifier, first to third switches and a capacitor. The operational amplifier has a chopper, first and second input terminals and an output terminal. The first switch receives an input voltage and is connected to the first input terminal.

Publication number: 20040178980Abstract: A liquid crystal display and its driving method utilize a polarity arrangement timing generator to generate signals for polarity-arrangement control. Those signals are output to a polarity arrangement programmable data driver, which accordingly produces a set of signals with aperiodically arranged polarities. Those aperiodic signals are exported to a display panel so that the pixels on the panel are supplied with voltage signals with an aperiodic polarity distribution. Further, picture frames displayed in pre-determined time period have pixel polarity distributions that are mutually complementary; that is, one half of the frames have pixels with polarities exactly opposite to those of the pixels in the other half.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2003Publication date: September 16, 2004Applicant: Sunplus Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yong-Nien Rao, Shih-Tzung Chou, Kun Tsung Lin
