Epson enhances line of color STN Display Control LSI for European handsets
July 17, 2003
Seiko Epson has developed a color STN display control LSI that is capable
of displaying 65,536 colors while consuming very little power. The new
driver, named the S1D15G17 and aimed primarily at the European mobile
phone market, is already shipping in sample quantities.
Epson successfully scaled down the chip by employing a quarter-micron
design rule, the state of the art for a high-voltage wafer process. Moreover,
with the power supply circuits, frame memory, segment driver, and common
driver all integrated into a single chip, this driver enables the display
of up to 132 by 132 dots. The driver consumes a mere 500 A of power when
65,536 colors are displayed. The addition of the new product gives Epson
an extensive lineup of color STN display control LSIs for mobile phones
The new product is scheduled to enter volume production in September
2003. Production volume, which will start out at 300,000 units per month,
is expected to grow to 2,000,000 units per month next year. The sample
price is 1,300 yen.
Product Overview
The new S1D15G17 is a higher-end alternative to the S1D15G14, a 104 x
82 dot, 4,096-color, STN display control LSI currently in volume production.
The new driver enables higher resolution and the display of more colors.
