GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADD8709 is an 18-channel integrated gamma reference for
use in LCD TV and monitors panels. The output buffers feature
high current drive and low offset voltage to provide an accurate
and stable gamma curve. The top nine channels swing to V
and the lower nine channels swing to GND.
An on-board voltage regulator provides a fixed input for the
gamma buffers, isolating the gamma curve from supply ripple.
The ADD8709 is specified over the temperature range of
–40°C to +105°C and comes in a 48-lead, Pb-free, low-profile
quad flat package.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
