In this paper, a high-speed logic circuitry using bootstrapped and low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) technologies for TFT-LCD panels is proposed. The new circuitry realizes high-speed operation owing to the application of a logic-swing voltage that is wider than the power-supply voltage using bootstrapped technology. As a result, the new logic circuitry can be operated at an operational frequency around 3-10 times higher than that of the conventional circuitry under the conditions of a 0.5 pF load capacitor at the output of a noninverting buffer and +10 V power-supply voltages. The new circuit is named "BST-TFT logic circuitry."

New positive and negative bias voltage generators for TFT-LCD's drivers utilizing charge pump circuits are introduced. The generators can generate positive or negative voltages with various amplitude by simply changing the number of pumping stages. By using the circuit simulation program HSPICE, it is demonstrated that the introduced generators can provide enough positive or negative voltages for TFT-LCD's drivers.
