Description

DDI IR voltage drop compensation circuit for digital operation
Technical Field
The invention relates to a display driver chip (DDI), in particular to a DDI IR drop compensation circuit for digital operation.
Background
As chip fabrication processes are developed toward micromachining, line widths are reduced and power supply voltages are also reduced. The advantage of this approach is that a faster design can be achieved in a smaller area. However, as the line width decreases, the resistance of the power supply line increases, and due to the resistance of the power supply line and the power consumption of the logic unit, an IR drop problem occurs in which sufficient voltage cannot be supplied to the logic unit. This problem is particularly important on mobile devices.
The number of logic gates in a DDI increases with increased resolution (e.g., FHD, WQHD) and logic functions. Therefore, current consumption due to the operation of the digital domain is increasing.
The increase in current consumption due to the metal resistance component of the power supply line can cause voltage drops to propagate to the digital area, which causes the logic function to fail due to logic cell delay variations.
