10-Channel Scan Driver

Features
S
High-Voltage Level-Shifting Scan Drivers
General Description
The MAX17119 includes a 10-channel, high-voltage,
level-shifting scan driver with a gate-pulse modulation
(GPM) feature to shape the corner of the scan-driver out-
put to reduce flicker. The device is optimized for thin-film
transistor (TFT) liquid-crystal display (LCD) applications.
The high-voltage level-shifting scan driver is designed to
drive the TFT panel gate logic. Its 10 outputs swing from
+38V (maximum) to -12V (minimum) and can swiftly drive
capacitive loads. There are two positive supply inputs
that provide flexibility for system design.
The GPM feature is employed to shape the corner of the
falling edge of the clock channels. This reduces flicker,
and therefore improves the display quality.
The MAX17119 also features a dedicated discharge
channel and an integrated voltage detector. When the
system shuts down, the voltage detector commands the
discharge channel to swing its output to positive sup-
ply voltage so as to remove any residual image on the
display quickly.
The MAX17119 is available in a 28-pin, 5mm x 5mm, thin
QFN package with a maximum thickness of 0.8mm for
thin LCD panels.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
