AD AD8385

10-Bit, 12-Channel Decimating
LCD DECDRIVER® with Level Shifters
AD8385
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8385 provides a fast, 10-bit, latched decimating digital
input that drives 12 high voltage outputs. 10-bit input words are
loaded into 12 separate high speed, bipolar DACs sequentially.
Flexible digital input format allows several AD8385s to be used
in parallel in high resolution displays. The output signal can be
adjusted for dc reference, signal inversion, and contrast for
maximum flexibility. Integrated level shifters convert timing
signals from a 3 V timing controller to high voltage for LCD
panel timing inputs. Two, serial, 8-bit DACs are integrated to
provide dc reference signals. A 3-wire serial interface controls
overload protection, output mode, and the serial DACs.

Outputs VAO1 and VAO2 are designed to drive very high capacitive loads. For proper operation of these outputs, load capacitance must be ≤0.002 µF or ≥0.047 µF.
Load capacitance in the range of 0.002 µF to 0.047 µF causes the output overshoot to exceed 100 mV.

Operation at high ambient temperature requires a thermally-optimized PCB layout (see the Applications section), input data update rate not exceeding 85 MHz, blackto-white transition ≤ 4 V and CL ≤ 150 pF. In systems with limited or no airflow, the maximum ambient operating temperature is limited to 75°C with the overload
protection enabled. For operation above 75°C, see Endnote 2.

In addition to the requirements stated in Endnote 1, operation at 85°C ambient temperature requires 200 lfm airflow or the overload protection disabled.

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.

AD8385
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE
The AD8385 employs a 2-stage overload protection circuit with
an enable/disable function that is programmable through the
3-wire serial interface. It consists of an output current limiter
and a thermal shut down.
The maximum operating junction temperature is 150°C. The
junction temperature trip point of the overload protection is
165°C. Production test guarantees a minimum junction
temperature trip point of 125°C.
When enabled, the maximum current at any one output of the
AD8385 is, on average, internally limited to 100 mA. In the
event of a momentary short circuit between a video output and
a power supply rail (VCC or AGND), the output current limit is
sufficiently low to provide temporary protection.
Consequently, the maximum guaranteed operating junction
temperature is 125°C with the overload protection enabled, and
150°C with the overload protection disabled.
EXPOSED PADDLE
To ensure optimal thermal performance, the exposed paddle
must be electrically connected to an external plane such as
AVCC or GND, as described in the Applications Circuit section.

− TA )
(θ JA − 0.9 × 3 Airflow in lfm )

MAXIMUM POWER DISSIPATION (W)
The thermal shutdown debiases the output amplifier when the
junction temperature reaches the internally set trip point. In the
event of an extended short circuit between a video output and a
power supply rail, the output amplifier current continues to
switch between 0 mA and 100 mA typ, with a period determined by the thermal time constant and the hysteresis of the
thermal trip point. Thermal shutdown provides long-term
protection by limiting the average junction temperature to a
safe level. When disabled, no overload protection is present.
To ensure operation within the specified operating temperature
range, the maximum power dissipation must be limited:

QUIESCENT
The junction temperature limits the maximum power that can
be safely dissipated by the AD8385. The maximum safe junction
temperature for plastic encapsulated devices, determined by the
glass transition temperature of the plastic, is approximately
150°C. Exceeding this limit can cause a temporary shift in the
parametric performance due to a change in the stresses exerted
on the die by the package. Exceeding a junction temperature of
175°C for an extended period can result in device failure.

Figure 2. Maximum Power Dissipation vs. Temperature
Note that the quiescent power dissipation of the AD8385 is
1.84 W when operating under the conditions specified in this
data sheet. When driving a 12-channel XGA panel with an input
capacitance of 150 pF, the AD8385 dissipates a total of 2.3 W
when displaying 1 pixel wide alternating white and black
vertical lines generated by a standard 60 Hz XGA input video.
When the frequency of the pixel clock is raised to 100 MHz, the
total power dissipation increases to 2.54 W. These specific
power dissipations are shown in Figure 2 for reference.

Description
10-Bit Data Input. MSB = DB9.
Clock Input. Data is acquired on both edges of the CLK.
A new data loading sequence begins on the rising edge of CLK when this input was high on the
preceding rising edge of CLK.
A new data loading sequence begins on the left, with Channel 0, when this input is low; a new
data loading sequence begins on the right, with Channel 11 when this input is high.
Data is transferred to the video outputs on the next rising edge of CLK when this input is high on
the rising edge of CLK.
These pins are directly connected to the analog inputs of the LCD panel.
The voltage applied between V1 and AGND sets the white video level during INV = low. The
voltage applied between V2 and AGND sets the white video level during INV = high.
The voltage applied between these pins sets the full-scale video output voltage.
When this input is high, the analog output voltages are above V2. When low, the analog outputs
voltages are below V1.
Digital Power Supply.
This pin is normally connected to the digital ground plane.

Description
Clock for the Serial Interface.
While the SEN input is low, one 12-bit serial word is loaded into the serial interface on the rising
edges of SCL. The first four bits select the function; the following eight bits are the data used in the
serial DACs.
A falling edge of this input initiates a loading cycle. While this input is held low, the serial interface
is enabled and data is loaded on every rising edge of SCL. The selected functions are updated on
the rising edge of this input. While this input is held high, the serial interface is disabled.
These output voltages are updated on the rising edge of the SEN input.
When this input is low, the overload protection and output mode are determined by the function
programmed into the serial interface. While this input is held high, the overload protection is
forced to enabled and the output mode is forced to normal, regardless of function programmed
into the serial interface.
Connect this pin to DGND.

While the corresponding input voltage of these level shifters is below the threshold voltage, the
output voltage at these pins is at VOH. While the corresponding input voltage of these level
shifters is above the threshold voltage, the output voltage at these pins is at VOL.
Logic Input of the Complementary Level Shifters.
While the corresponding input voltage of these level shifters is below the threshold voltage, the
voltage at the noninverting output pins is at VOH and the voltage at the inverting outputs is at
VOL. While the corresponding input voltage of these level shifters is above the threshold voltage,
the voltage at the noninverting output pins is at VOL and the voltage at the inverting outputs is at
VOH.

AD8385
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8385 is a system building block designed to directly
drive the columns of LCD microdisplays of the type popularized for use in projection systems. It comprises 12 channels
of precision, 10-bit digital-to-analog converters loaded from a
single, high speed, 10-bit wide input. Precision current feedback
amplifiers, providing well-damped pulse response and fast
voltage settling into large capacitive loads, buffer the 12 outputs.
Laser trimming at the wafer level ensures low absolute output
errors and tight channel-to-channel matching. Tight part-topart matching in high resolution systems is guaranteed by the
use of external voltage references.
INV Control—Analog Output Inversion
Three groups of level shifters convert digital inputs to high
voltage outputs for direct connection to the control inputs of
LCD panels.
3-Wire Serial Interface—SDAC, Output, Thermal Switch
Control
An edge detector conditions a high voltage reference timing
input from the LCD and converts it to digital levels for use in
synchronizing timing controllers, such as the AD8389.
The analog voltage equivalent of the input code is subtracted
from (V2 + VFS) while INV is held high and added to
(V1 – VFS) while INV is held low. Video inversion is delayed
by 6 to 12 CLK cycles from the INV input.
TSTM Control—Test Mode
A low on this input allows serial interface control of the output
operating mode and the thermal switch.
A high on this input turns the thermal switch on and releases
the video outputs and VAO1 from grounded mode.
The serial interface controls two 8-bit serial DACs, the thermal
switch of the overload protection circuit, and the video output
operating mode via a 12-bit-wide serial word from a microprocessor. Four of the 12 bits select the function; the remaining
8 bits are the data for the serial DACs.

A valid STSQ control input initiates a new 6-clock loading cycle
during which 12 input data-words are loaded sequentially into
12 internal channels. Data is loaded on both the rising and

current rising CLK edge only when STSQ is held high at the
preceding rising CLK edge.

the INV input is held high.
VRH, VRL Inputs—Full-Scale Video Reference Inputs
Twice the difference between these analog input voltages sets
the full-scale output voltage VFS = 2 (VRH–VRL).

OUTPUT OPERATING MODE
In normal operating mode, the voltage of the video outputs and
VAO1 is determined by the inputs.
Output VAO1 is designed to drive very large capacitive loads,
above 0.047 µF. Lower capacitive loads may result in excessive
overshoot at VAO1.
Level Shifters
In grounded output mode, the video outputs and VAO1 are
forced to (AGND + 0.1 V) typ.
The characteristics of the level shifters are optimized based on
their intended use.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The overload protection employs current limiters and a thermal
switch to protect the video output pins against accidental shorts
between any video output pin and AVCC or AGND.
The junction temperature trip point of the thermal switch is
165°C. Production test guarantees a minimum junction
temperature trip point of 125°C. Consequently, the operating
junction temperature should not be allowed to rise above 125°C
with the thermal switch enabled.
Seven level shifters—DX, CLX, CLXN, and ENBX[1:4]—are
optimized for the X direction and three—DY, CLY and CLYN—
are optimized for the Y direction control signals.
One level shifter—NRG—is designed to drive a large capacitive
load and is optimized for an X direction control signal. Two
level shifters—DIRX and DIRY—are optimized for very low
frequency control signals.
One level shifting edge detector—MONITI, MONITO—is
optimized to condition a synchronizing feedback reference
signal from the LCD.

THEORY OF OPERATION
TRANSFER FUNCTION AND ANALOG OUTPUT
VOLTAGE
ACCURACY
The DECDRIVER has two regions of operation where the video
output voltages are either above reference voltage V2 or below
reference voltage V1. The transfer function defines the video
output voltage as the function of the digital input code:
VIDx(n) = V2 + VFS × (1 – n/1023), for INV = high
VIDx(n) = V1 – VFS × (1 – n/1023), for INV = low
where:
n = input code
VFS = 2 × (VRH – VRL)
To best correlate transfer function errors to image artifacts, the
overall accuracy of the DECDRIVER is defined by two
parameters, VDE and VCME.
VDE, the differential error voltage, measures the difference
between the rms value of the output and the rms value of the
ideal. The defining expression is
[VOUTN(n) – V 2] – [VOUTP(n) – V 1] ⎛
n ⎞
– ⎜1 –
VDE(n) =
⎟ × VFS
2
⎝ 1023 ⎠
VCME, the common-mode error voltage, measures ½ the dc
bias of the output. The defining expression is
A number of internal limits define the usable range of the video
output voltages, VIDx. See Figure 15.

Internal Bias Voltage Generation
The serial interface has no power-on reset.
Code 010XXXXXXXXX, sent immediately following
a power-up places, all outputs into normal operating
mode and disables the thermal switch.
Standard systems that internally generate the bias voltage
reserve the uppermost code range for the bias voltage, and use
the remaining code range to encode the video for gamma
correction. A high degree of ac symmetry is guaranteed by the
AD8385 in these systems.
OPERATION IN HIGH AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
To extend the maximum operating junction temperature of the
AD8385 to 150°C, keep the thermal switch disabled during
normal operation. Code format X10XXXXXXXXX ensures a
disabled thermal switch.
The V1 and V2 inputs in these systems are tied together and are
normally connected to VCOM, as shown in Figure 18.

Failure to comply with the Absolute Maximum Ratings, may

External Bias Voltage Generation
In systems that require improved brightness resolution and
higher accuracy, the V1 and V2 inputs, connected to external
voltage references, provide the necessary bias voltage (VBIAS)
while allowing the full code range to be used for gamma
correction.
To ensure a symmetrical ac voltage at the AD8385’s outputs,
VBIAS must remain constant for both states of INV. Therefore,
V1 and V2 are defined as
V1 = VCOM – VBIAS
V2 = VCOM + VBIAS
VBIAS GENERATION—V1, V2 INPUT PIN
FUNCTIONALITY
To avoid image flicker, a symmetrical ac voltage is required and
a bias voltage of approximately 1 V minimum must be
maintained across the pixels of HTPS LCDs. The AD8385
provides an internal and external method of maintaining this
bias voltage.

The total maximum power dissipation of the AD8385 is partly
load-dependent. In a 12-channel 60 Hz XGA system running at
a 65 MHz pixel rate, the total maximum power dissipation is
2.3 W at an LCD channel input capacitance of 150 pF. At a
100 MHz pixel rate, the total maximum power dissipation can
exceed 3 W.
To limit the operating junction temperature at or below the
guaranteed maximum, the package, in conjunction with the
PCB, must effectively conduct heat away from the junction.

PCB DESIGN FOR OPTIMIZED THERMAL
PERFORMANCE
The AD8385 package is designed to provide enhanced thermal
characteristics through the exposed die paddle on the bottom
surface of the package. To take full advantage of this feature, the
exposed paddle must be in direct thermal contact with the PCB,
which then serves as a heat sink.
Figure 19. External VBIAS Generator with the AD8132
A thermally effective PCB must incorporate two thermal pads
and a thermal via structure. The thermal pad on the top PCB
layer provides a solderable contact surface on the top surface of
the PCB. The thermal pad on the bottom PCB layer provides a
surface in direct contact with the ambient. The thermal via
structure provides a thermal path to the inner and bottom
layers of the PCB to remove heat.

To minimize thermal performance degradation of production
PCBs, the contact area between the thermal pad and the PCB
should be maximized. Therefore, the size of the thermal pad on
the top PCB layer should match the exposed paddle size. The
second thermal pad of at least the same size should be placed on
the bottom side of the PCB. At least one thermal pad should be
in direct thermal contact with a plane such as AVCC or GND.

Effective heat transfer from the top to the inner and bottom
layers of the PCB requires thermal vias incorporated into the
thermal pad design. Thermal performance increases logarithmically with the number of vias.

Bottom PCB Layer
04514-0-022
It is recommended that the bottom thermal pad be thermally
connected to a plane. The connection should be direct such that
the thermal pad becomes part of the plane.
Figure 22. Land Pattern—Top Layer
The use of thermal spokes is not recommended when connecting the thermal pads or via structure to the AVCC plane.
Solder Masking
6.5 mm
6.5 mm
To minimize the formation of solder voids due to solder flowing
into the via holes (solder wicking), the via diameter should be
small. Optional solder masking of the via holes on the top layer
of the PCB plugs the via holes, inhibiting solder flow into the
holes. To optimize the thermal pad coverage, the solder mask
diameter should be no more than 0.1 mm larger than the via
hole diameter.
