摘要： An amplification circuit comprises a capacitor arrangement (42) and a switching arrangement. The capacitor arrangement has a first capacitor (C2) which has a voltage-dependent capacitance and a second capacitor (C1) (which may also be voltage-dependent). The circuit is operable in two modes, a first mode in which the input voltage is provided to one terminal of at least the first capacitor, and a second mode in which the switching arrangement causes charge to be redistributed between the first and second capacitors such that the voltage across the first capacitor changes to reduce the capacitance of the first capacitor, the output voltage being dependent on the resulting voltage across the first capacitor. The invention uses a voltage controlled capacitance in combination with charge sharing between capacitors, which has the result of providing a voltage amplification characteristic. This arrangement can thus be used for the amplification of an analogue voltage, or the boosting of a fixed level (i.e. digital voltage). Thus, the circuit of the invention can be used for level shifting or amplification, for example for use in the pixels of an active matrix array device.

摘要： A pixellated device (10), such as a display, has pixel row and column address lines (18,20) for addressing each pixel, thereby providing signal data to each pixel (12) or reading signal data from each pixel. An array of memory cells (22) is provided on the substrate interspersed with the pixel drive circuitry (16), wherein memory address circuitry (24,26,28,30) is provided enabling data to be written to each memory cell and enabling data to be read from each cell (22), independently of the signal data. Each memory cell (22) is thus addressable independently of the pixel data. Thus, the memory cells do not form part of the pixel circuitry, which allows the memory to be used in a flexible manner. For example, the memory may be used for purposes not directly associated with the driving or addressing of the pixels of the device.

摘要： A large-area electronic device, such as an AMLCD, has switching TFTs (T.sub.p) in a matrix and circuit TFTs (T.sub.s) in a peripheral drive circuit. Both the TFTs (T.sub.p, T.sub.s) comprise a field-relief region (130) which has a lower doping concentration (N-) than their drain region (113) and which is present between their channel region (111) and the drain region (113). This field-relief region (130), at least over most of its length, overlaps with the gate (121) in the circuit TFTs (T.sub.s) so as to reduce series resistance in the field-relief region (130) by conductivity modulation with the gate (121). However, the drain region (113) in the switching TFTs (T.sub.p) is offset from overlap with their gate (121) by at least most of the length of their field-relief region (130). This field-relief offset permits the switching TFTs (T.sub.p) to have a lower leakage current than the circuit TFTs (T.sub.s).

摘要： In an LCD or other electronic device, thin-film circuit elements on a substrate (100) form a sample-and-hold or other sampling circuit (10). The circuit (10) comprises a TFT (Ts) as a sampling transistor and preferably another TFT (T2) to compensate for displacement currents in charging and discharging the insulated gate (12) of the sampling TFT. Even when T2 is included, a slow drift in output voltage (Vo) is observed when Ts switches off, and this limits use of the circuit, especially in large area active-matrix devices. In accordance with the invention this slow drift is removed or significantly reduced by injecting minority carriers into the channel region of Ts (and T2) from a doped opposite-type region (119) or Schottky contact region (119) which is forward biased via a thin-film supply line (129). The minority carriers neutralise majority carriers which are being slowly released by thermal emission from trapping states in the TFT body.

摘要： An active matrix display has a column driver for providing signals to the pixels for driving the display elements, the column driver comprising digital to analogue converter circuitry providing a first number of display element drive levels. Within each pixel, the first number of display element drive levels is converted into a second, greater number, of pixel grey levels. This combines multi-level digital to analogue conversion with in-pixel level generation and enables the complexity of the DACs to be reduced so that they can be integrated onto the display substrate, for example using low temperature polysilicon processing.

摘要： An active matrix array device has a plurality of matrix array elements (100), each of which have a first capacitive device (120) coupled to a charging conductor (32m) via a first switch (100) being responsive to an addressing conductor (22n). In addition, the matrix array elements (100) comprise a second capacitive device (130) coupled to the first capacitive device (120) via a second switch (112) being responsive to en enable signal provided via an enable conductor (42n). The second capacitive device (130) is coupled to the control terminal of a third switch (114), which is coupled between the first capacitive device (120) and a potential source like the charging conductor (32m). The second capacitive device (130) is used to sample the voltage across the first capacitive device (120), which enables the third switch (114) if of an appropriate value, thus providing a conductive path between the first capacitive device (120) and the potential source. This arrangement allows for a low-power data refresh mode of the matrix array elements (100) with polarity inversion in subsequent refresh cycles.

摘要： A display device with capacitive display pixels, in which a drive scheme is used for capacitive coupling of voltages to enable reduced column voltage swings to be obtained. Each pixel has two storage capacitors. The use of two storage capacitors provides some freedom in the choice of the magnitude of the voltage swing provide on one terminal of one of the storage capacitors. The first capacitor (C1) of all pixels of the display may be grounded, and only the second capacitor (C2) is subjected to changes in voltage to be capacitively coupled to the display cell. This provides a flexible capacitor line drive type scheme.
