This paper, presents a high-speed full swing driver for a heavy-load flat-panel scan-line circuit. The high driving capability is achieved using the proposed Complementary Dual-Bootstrap (CDUB) technique. The scan-line CDUB driver was fabricated in a 0.35-µm CMOS technology. The measured results, under the flat-panel scan-line load model, indicate that the delay time is within 2.8µs and the average power is 0.74mW for a 5V supply voltage.

We have developed a two-dimensional flat-panel imager (FPI) utilizing conventional amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin film transistor (TFT) technology for AM-LCDs, and we have made a prototype. We can experimentally manufacture the FPI basically by utilizing conventional production lines of AM-LCDs, because the imager is based on the TFT array for AM-LCDs. The TFT performs both switching and photo-detecting functions itself. Using the FPI, we can capture monochrome images in real time, and can also achieve full-color images by introducing time-sequential driving based on a color backlight system with RGB-LEDs. The reliability of the TFT under bias and irradiation stress caused by capturing images is maintained by introducing an original driving method and processing the captured image. By making use of advantages the FPI has over conventional imaging systems, we hope that the FPI will be a useful compact imaging device for documents, pictures, fingerprints, and the like.
