Advanced Microdisplays for Portable Systems
Abstract
This report documents the development of extremely integrated miniature display technology and high performance electronics alongside active-matrix circuitry. The goal of this development was to produce an absolutely portable platform to support imaging and video messaging for use with head-mounted and hand-held systems. Extreme complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) integration, using new low-power CMOS technology, in the enabling technology behind the display systems developed under this program. This program has demonstrated the capability of extreme display system integration by incorporating active matrix pixel arrays, interface logic (asynchronous serial, RS-170), font memory, programmable microprocessors, NTSC, JPEG, and MPEG application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) decoders, and lamp, electro-luminescent (EL), and light emitting diode (LED) illumination drive circuitry into a single display backplane.
