A display apparatus includes a display panel; and a display driver integrated circuit (DDI) chip coupled to the display panel, the DDI chip being configured to generate a display driving signal for driving the display panel based on image data. The DDI chip may include: a first embedded memory device embedded in the DDI chip and configured to store compensation data for compensating for electrical and optical characteristics of a plurality of pixels included in the display panel; a timing controller configured to control signals for driving the display panel, and to generate a data control signal based on the image data and the compensation data; and a data driver configured to provide a data voltage to the display panel according to the data control signal. The first embedded memory device may not include static random access memory (SRAM).

Display driver integrated circuit (DDI) chip and display apparatus

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a device isolation layer in a substrate to define an active region, forming a gate insulating layer covering at least a portion of the active region, forming a gate electrode on the gate insulating layer, and forming an interlayer insulating layer on the gate electrode. The gate insulating layer includes a first portion overlapping with the active region and a second portion overlapping with the device isolation layer. The forming of the gate insulating layer includes etching at least a part of the second portion of the gate insulating layer to thin the part of the second portion of the gate insulating layer.
