1 DESCRIPTION
The GC9503V device is a single-chip solution for a-Si TFT LCD that incorporates gate drivers and is
capable of 480RGBx864, 480RGBx854, 480RGBx800, 480RGBx720, 480RGBx640, 480RGBx360 and
480RGBx320 without internal GRAM. It includes a timing controller with glass interface level-shifters and
a glass power supply circuit.
The GC9503V supports MIPI Interface, 16/18/24 bits RGB interface, serial peripheral interfaces (SPI)
interface. The GC9503V is also able to make gamma correction settings separately for RGB dots to panel
characteristics, resulting in higher display qualities.
This LSI is suitable for small or medium-sized portable mobile solutions requiring long-term driving
capabilities, including bi-directional pagers, digital audio players, cellular phones and handheld PDA.
