Abstract

A saturating column driver for an LCD substrate. Digital data is entered into a register in a serial fashion to produce a series of single-column addresses. The single-column addresses are latched and apparatus is provided for translating video binary words into grey scale codes. Also provided are switches responsive to the translated video binary words which switch a voltage input corresponding to the video binary word through to the LCD substrate to generate the desired grey scale.
