Cost-effective VDMOS for PDP scan driver IC

Abstract

VDMOS integrated in scan driver chip for plasma display panels (PDP) is disclosed in the paper, which is based on the epitaxial Bipolar-CMOS- DMOS (BCD) process. The key considerations during the design are proposed here, and abundance simulation and process regulation is done on the structure and parameter optimization, by the testing on the VDMOS parameter and chip parameter, the results is favorable for 170 V PDP scan driver chip, which contributes to the competitive cost efficiency.
