Abstract
A scan driver of LCD with fault detection and correction circuit is disclosed herein. The scan driver fabricated on a glass substrate locates at both ends of the scan buses can simultaneously drive the scan buses from both ends. The fault detection and correction circuit of the scan driver is used to determine whether transmitting signal from a DFF at present stage into a DFF at next stage, or transmitting signal from the other DFF at present stage through a scan bus into the other DFF. The fault detection and correction circuit includes the first detecting device, the second detecting device, the control signal generating device, and the transmission control device. The first and the second detecting device generate a first logic level and a second logic level responding to a stuck-at-zero fault and a stuck-at-one fault respectively. The control signal generating device generates a first control signal when all input terminals exhibiting a second logic level, and generates a second control signal when one of input terminals exhibiting the first logic level. The transmission control device can transmit signal from one DFF to the other and to the scan bus responding to the first control signal, also can isolate them and the scan bus responding to the second control signal.
