Abstract

A complete ultra-low-power high-voltage driver for 80 times 104 passive-matrix bistable LCD is integrated in a 0.7mum CMOS smart-power technology. It features 100V driving capability on all row and column outputs and comprises all necessary digitally programmable high-voltage generators and multiplexers to synthesize the required complex high-voltage waveforms from a 3V battery. An original level-shifter design for the high-voltage multiplexers yields extremely low internal power consumption below 1-10mW for the entire driver chip
