Abstract
Based on the UMC80nm process
this paper uses a non-linear data transformation combined with a linear DAC structure to design a gamma correction circuit for 1080 p resolution AMOLED display drive. Among them
the non-linear transformation circuit is designed by piecewise linear fitting method
which is simple and flexible
and easy to implement; in order to meet the high-precision requirements of gray-scale voltage
the DAC bit width is designed to be 11 bit
and the "6 + 5" two-stage structure is adopted; The stage DAC is designed as a class-AB output interpolation op amp structure
not only as part of the 11 bit DAC
but also used to drive R
G
B pixel circuits
saving chip area. Spectre simulation of the circuit
the non-linear data conversion error is 0.77%
the maximum INL of the 11 bit DAC is + 0.33LSB / -0.51LSB
the maximum DNL is + 0.24LSB / -0.16LSB
and the error of the overall gamma correction circuit is 0.96 %
Meeting the needs of AMOLED driver chips with 1080 p resolution
which has certain application value.
