Course 1

This document outlines the syllabus for a course on flat panel display principle and driving circuit design. The course will cover topics like LCD, OLED, plasma display, and field emission displays over 14 weeks. It will discuss TFT-LCD specifications and array/driving circuit design for amorphous silicon and LTPS TFTs. Additional topics include the driver IC manufacturing process, case studies, and a final project to design a source driver IC or gate driver IC. Students will complete homework assignments, a mid-term report, and final project. The course aims to provide both theoretical and practical understanding of flat panel display technology and circuit design.
