低温ポリシリコンTFT

低温ポリシリコンTFT
low temperature poly-silicon TFT
6849345
Eastman Kodak Company
The substrate 101 can either be light transmissive or opaque, depending on the intended direction of light emission. The light transmissive property is desirable for viewing the EL emission through the substrate. The transparent substrate may contain, or have built up on it, various electronic structures or circuitry (e.g., low temperature poly-silicon TFT structures) so long as a transparent region or regions remain. Transparent glass or plastic is commonly employed in such cases. For applications where the EL emission is viewed through the top electrode, the transmissive characteristic of the bottom support is immaterial, and therefore can be light transmissive, light absorbing or light reflective. Substrates for use in this case include, but are not limited to, glass, plastic, semiconductor materials, ceramics, and circuit board materials. Of course it is necessary to provide in these device configurations a light transparent top electrode. The substrate, in some cases, may actually constitute the anode or cathode.

The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) published a standard specifying the electrical characteristics of low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) interface circuits that can be used to interchange binary signals. LVDS employs low-voltage differential signals to provide high-speed, low-power data communication. The use of differential signals allows for cancellation of common-mode noise, and thus enables data transmission with exceptional speed and noise immunity.

アクティブアドレシング

アクティブアドレシング
active addressing
5459482
Motorola
When the display is an active addressing display, it can be shown mathematically that there is applied to each pixel of the display a root-mean-square (rms) voltage averaged over the frame period, and that the rms voltage is proportional to each pixel value for the frame. The advantage of active addressing is that it restores high contrast to the displayed image because instead of applying a single, high level selection pulse to each pixel during the frame period, active addressing applies a plurality of much lower level (2-5 times the rms voltage) selection pulses spread throughout the frame period.
