An electronic device includes a substrate and a display driver chip bonded on the substrate. The display driver chip includes a plurality of operational amplifiers, and each of the operational amplifiers has a first stage and a second stage. The first stage includes a first power input terminal. The second stage includes a first power input terminal and an output terminal for outputting an output voltage. The first power input terminal of the first stage is connected to a first metal trace of the substrate, and the first power input terminal of the second stage is connected to a second metal trace of the substrate. The first power input terminal of the first stage and the first power input terminal of the second stage are both provided with a first voltage level.

Electronic device and display driver chip

A source driver including a first output buffer, a second output buffer and a plurality of switches is provided. The first output buffer is connected to an output line. The second output buffer is connected to another output line. During a charge-sharing period, the first switch and the fourth switch are not conducted, and the second switch, the third switch, the fifth switch and the sixth switch are conducted. A first node, a second node and the output lines are connected together to perform a charge-sharing operation during the charge-sharing period. Based on the circuit structure of the source driver, the efficiency of the charge-sharing operation is improved and the chip area of the source driver is reduced.

Source driver

A liquid crystal display apparatus, a source driver, and a method for controlling polarity of driving signals thereof are provided. The source driver includes a signal receiving interface, a decoder, and a controller. The signal receiving interface receives an image data stream or an indication signal. The decoder obtains controlling information from the image data stream or the indication signal. The controller receives the controlling information and decides a plurality of source driving signals generated by the source driver according to the controlling information.
