This paper reports on a backplane designed in 28nm technology which embeds a complete framebuffer as well as a programmable high speed data interface which can realize up to 576Gbit/s data transfer rate to pixel array utilizing a 1440 x 1080 resolution with a 2.5 micron pixel capable for LCOS, OLED and micro-LED front planes. The programmable modulation scheme will be discussed in detail using typical scanning examples.enSpatial light modulatorsCMOS backplanedriver ICOLED-on-SiliconLCOSmicroLEDdigital opticsDDC::600 Technik, Medizin, angewandte WissenschaftenNew small-node CMOS microdisplay backplane for high-speed programmable light modulation designed for OLED, microLED, and LCOS front-plane technologiesconference paper
