Unique Features of Electronic Paper Require Special Driver lC

摘要

Technologies for driver ICs vary: Some display technologies require extra voltage, or a certain level of stability. When new display technologies arise, driver ICs must adapt. Paper-like displays offer a case in point. Extremely power-efficient, these flexible displays promise a wide array of uses in personal and mobile electronics, in retail settings, and in educational equipment. As their name suggests, these displays combine the usefulness of paper with the capabilities of electronic displays. Once designers and users begin to explore the features of paper-like displays, new uses, and perhaps even new kinds of equipment may begin to suggest themselves.
