FEATURES
Programmable COM Driver to prevent Screen-Burn

Power Efficiency optimised for use with TFT in mobile
phones
Low Quiescent Current
Low Shutdown Current (<5uA)
Shutdown Function
The ADM8840 combines a charge pump regulator and a
Common Line (COM) driver in a single chip solution for use
in TFT LCD’s. The device provides an LCD controller and
grayscale DAC supply voltage of 5.0V (±2%), 2 gate drive
voltages of +15V and -15V and a COM driver voltage. This
COM Driver voltage alternates the polarity of the Common
line voltage every line (or every frame) on the display in order
to prevent screen-burn occuring over time. The ADM8840
is powered by a single 3.0V supply.
The ADM8840 has an internal 100KHz oscillator for driving
the charge pumps.
The COM Driver section of the ADM8840 can be used to
generate the alternate frame or line inversion of the COM
line of the LCD panel. The ADM8840 receives the COM
clock from the controller with a frequency up to 10kHz and
allows programmable conditioning of its amplitude and
centre voltage through the use of on-board DAC’s. This
allows programmable elimination of display flicker caused
by the COM inversion.
The COM_OUT amplitude can be programmed from 4.0V
to 7.0V in steps of 28mV. The COM_OUT centre voltage
can be programmed to 0.9V to 2.8V in steps of 14mV.

The ADM8840 provides power up sequencing of the -15V
and +15V gate drive outputs, ensuring the -15V starts to
power up before the +15V.
The ADM8840 has a number of power save features, including low power Shutdown. The 5.0V output consumes the
most power, so Power Efficiency is also maximised on this
output with an oscillator enabling scheme (Green Idle
The ADM8840 is fabricated using CMOS technology for
minimal power consumption. The part is packaged in a 32pin LFCSP package.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily

Although the ADM8840 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage

ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

The COM Driver section of the ADM8840 can be used to
generate the alternate frame or line inversion of the COM

clock (with frequency up to 10kHz) from the controller and
allows programmable conditioning of its amplitude and
centre voltage through the use of on-board DAC’s 1 and 2.
This allows programmable elimination of display flicker
caused by the COM inversion.
The COM_OUT amplitude can be programmed from 4.0V
to 7.0V in steps of 28mV. The COM_OUT centre voltage
can be programmed from 0.9V to 2.8V in steps of 14mV.

POWER SEQUENCING
In order for the TFT panel to power up correctly, the gate
drive supplies must be sequenced such that the -15V supply
starts up before the +15V supply. The ADM8840 controls
this sequence. When the device is turned on, the ADM8840
allow the -15V output to ramp immediately, but holds off the
+15V output. It continues to do this until the negative output
has reached -3V. At this point, the positive output is enabled
and allowed to ramp to +15V. This sequence is highlighted
in figure 2.

SERIAL INTERFACE
The COM Driver section of the ADM8840 uses a serial
interface to input data and transfer it into the DACs. Figure
3, below, shows the operation of the serial interface. The data
is transmitted along the serial DATA line, along with a serial
clock signal, SCLK. This data is read into a Shift Register.
When the 8 bits are sucessfully stored in the Shift Register a
low-to-high transition on the CS/LDAC input causes the
latch to load the 8-bits of data into the relevent DAC.
This function is also shown in the waveforms in Figure 4
below. A falling edge on the CS/LDAC input initiates the
data read into the shift register. The first bit of the datastream
is the DAC Select Bit (DAC_SEL) which determines which
internal DAC the data will be written to. A ‘1’ selects DAC
1 which sets the Amplitude of the output and a ‘0’ selects

DAC 2 which sets the Centre Voltage of the output. The
individual data bits are then read in one by one on the DATA
line. After the DAC_SEL bit and the 8 data bits have been
read there is a pause to ensure the shift register outputs are
stable. Then a rising edge on the CS/LDAC input loads the
8 bits on the shift register outputs into the relevent DAC (and
the DAC outputs will change accordingly). Note that if CS/
LDAC goes high before all 8 data bits are read in then
incorrect data will be loaded into the DACs. All bits on the
DATA line are read in on each rising edge of the SCLK
signal.
When the ADM8840 comes out of shutdown the DACs
are preset with default values generating a COM_OUT
Amplitude of 6V with a Centre voltage of 1.5V.
