Abstract
A driving apparatus capable of driving a display panel is provided. The driving apparatus can include a multiplexer and an output circuit. The multiplexer may include at least one first input terminal configured to receive information data in a first mode, at least one second input terminal configured to receive display data in a second mode, and at least one output terminal coupled to at least one input terminal of the output circuit. The output circuit can be configured to convert digital data into an analog voltage and output the analog voltage via at least one output terminal of the output circuit. The output circuit can be configured to convert the information data in the first mode and convert the display data into at least one driving voltage for driving at least one data line of the display panel in the second mode. The information data cannot be used for driving the display panel to present an image.
