A physical-level LCD driver model and simulator with application to pixel crosstalk suppression

The capability of early visual performance evaluation of alternative driving schemes is a major issue for time-effective and low-cost design of driver circuits for liquid crystal displays (LCD). We implemented a platform-independent, high-level, fully-configurable LCD driver simulation environment. The software incorporates an accurate driver/LC circuit model for reliable frequency characterization of the display module behavior. We demonstrated its efficiency in elaborating an optimal driving configuration that yields crosstalk-free image representation. The tool has been integrated into industrial design flows
