Abstract
An electronic display system has a light transmissive panel, a region of display elements on the panel, and source lines coupled to the display elements. A demultiplexer circuit has multiple groups of pass gates. Each pass gate has a pair of complimentary on-panel transistors, and the signal outputs of each group are connected to a respective group of the source lines. A display driver integrated circuit (IC) receives video data and timing control signals. A signal input of each group of pass gates is connected to a respective output pin of the driver IC. The display driver IC provides digital timing control signals to control the pass gates of the demultiplexer circuit. Other embodiments are also described.
