Abstract

Disclosed is a digital-to-analog converter, a display panel driver containing the same as well as a method for converting digital-to-analog. The digital-to-analog converter outputting an analog data voltage corresponding to n-bit data, includes a chopping amplification unit adapted to receive an upper bit voltage corresponding to upper x bits of the n-bit data and a lower bit voltage corresponding to lower y bits of the n-bit data and to output the analog data voltage. The chopping amplification unit may include a sample and hold capacitor adapted to be charged with the upper bit voltage in a non-inverting mode, and a chopping amplifier adapted to supply the upper bit voltage to the sample and hold capacitor in the non-inverting mode and adapted to output a voltage corresponding to the sum of the upper bit voltage and the lower bit voltage as the analog data voltage in an inverting mode.

Description

technical field [0001] Example embodiments relate to a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), a display panel driver having the same, and a method for digital-to-analog conversion. More particularly, example embodiments relate to a DAC having a reduced chip size, a display panel driver having the same, and a method for digital-to-analog conversion. Background technique [0002] Generally, a display device may require a digital-to-analog converter DAC in order to display an image corresponding to input digital data. The DAC may convert digital data into an analog data voltage, and may apply the analog data voltage to a display panel so that an image corresponding to the digital data may be displayed on the display panel. [0003] As the number of digital data bits increases, higher resolution images corresponding to the digital data can be produced. However, in order to display high-resolution images, a display device may require components (or devices) capable of handling digi...
