Abstract: A unity-gain buffer includes an operational amplifier, a control stage, and an auxiliary output stage. The operational amplifier includes a non-inverting input terminal, an output terminal, and an inverting input terminal. The control stage is connected between the non-inverting input terminal and the output terminal of the unity-gain buffer. The auxiliary output stage is connected between the control stage and the output terminal of the unity-gain buffer. According to an input voltage at the input terminal of the unity-gain buffer, the control stage generates a first driving current, the auxiliary output stage generates a second driving current, and the operational amplifier generates a third driving current, so that an overall driving current outputted from the output terminal of the unity-gain buffer is equal to the sum of the first driving current, the second driving current and the third driving current.

Abstract: A charge-sharing control method for a display panel includes the following steps. Firstly, a first switch set is turned on, so that a first voltage driving unit provides a first positive driving voltage to a first data line and a second voltage driving unit provides a first negative driving voltage to a second data line. Then, a second switch set is turned on, so that a first charge storage unit has a positive common voltage and a second charge storage unit has a negative common voltage. Then, a third switch set is turned on, so that the first data line and the second data line are electrically connected with a ground voltage. After a polarity inversion, the second data line is charged according to a first comparison result and the first data line is discharged according to a second comparison result.

The third signal path has one end connected to the output of the operational amplifier and the other end connected to the first output node. The first signal path is normally on, and the second and third signal paths are normally off. The first signal path has high impedance, and each of the second and third signal paths has low impedance.
