| Abstract: | Abstract— The active‐matrix electrophoretic display (AMEPD) has been commonly used for the applications of smart handheld reading devices such as e‐books and e‐newspapers. This paper presents a controller IC design for the AMEPD backend system which reduces the total hardware cost compared to that of the conventional design. By contrast, this study also provides a driving method for image displays. The prototyped controller is connected to a 6‐in. AMEPD panel, and good display quality has demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed controller design. |
