摘要： A temperature sensing apparatus for a liquid crystal display device is disclosed. The apparatus can measure the device temperature without the existence of a conventional PN junction. The temperature sensing apparatus comprises at least one thin-film transistor (TFT) cell, a variable current source, a buffer and a sensing circuit. Each TFT cell has its respective drain and gate coupled together and a source coupled to a ground. The variable current source is coupled to the drain of the TFT cell. The buffer has an input coupled to the drain of the TFT cell. The sensing circuit has an input coupled to an output of the buffer and an output to produce a voltage output signal. The temperature of the TFT cell is determined by inputting two currents at a sub-saturation region of the TFT cell and measuring voltage output signal difference.

摘要： A common voltage adjustment apparatus for adjusting a common voltage of a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel includes a data-read-write circuit and an output circuit. The data-read-write circuit includes a one-time-programmable (OTP) memory module and a control interface unit. The OTP memory module includes several OTP memories. The control interface unit outputs common-voltage-setting data according to a control signal and selectively stores the common-voltage-setting data into an unwritten OTP memory in the OTP memory module. The output circuit includes a reference-voltage generator and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The reference-voltage generator generates a reference voltage. The DAC converts the common-voltage-setting data into an output voltage according to the reference voltage.
