MagnaChip Develops Ultra Low Power Large Display Driver IC Process

Posted by EDA Geek News Staff in Components on Friday, October 5, 2007

MagnaChip Semiconductor Ltd., a leading global designer, developer and manufacturer of image sensor solutions, mixed-signal and digital multimedia semiconductors, announced the launch of its ultra low power Large Display Driver IC (LDDI) process for use in notebook applications.

This unique solution supports the 0.18um process at low voltages, specifically, 2.5V and 9V, and provides for low power consumption. Currently, this process accommodates the smallest chip size available for notebook applications. Compared to the existing 0.3um processes in the market, this solution enables a 40% reduction in chip size and 30% less power consumption, thus supporting extended battery life.

Mr. Tae Young Hwang, Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Display Solutions Division, said, “We remain focused on expanding our technology leadership in support of our customers worldwide. We have refined our large display solutions to offer the market the first low power, low voltage process with a smaller cell size. These enhancements provide a distinctive, competitive edge to our customers in the growing display market.”
