Design of versatile passive-matrix OLED driver/controller ASIC's

Passive-Matrix OLED driver/controller units have been developed. The second generation devices employ several new features allowing versatile applications. Those features include implementation of externally adaptable firmware affecting several functional properties, e.g., control of monochrome, area-color or full-color displays, features for OLED life-time improvement, and an automotive-compatible high-speed serial interface (LVDS).
