One of the most common elements in the consumer and automotive electronics is the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). LCD technology has produced a large array of products that meet a wide range of size, power, and image quality requirements. Recent innovation from Sharp Electronics goes one step further with the development of a two-way viewing angle LCD product. The popularity of standard LCDs has led to a number of semiconductor solutions to drive them, ranging from ASSPs to full-custom devices. In the case of two-way viewing LCD products, no standard driver solution exists, so a custom solution is required to support them. This paper discusses an innovative architecture based on FPGAs and soft-core embedded processors that supports both standard and two-way viewing LCD products.
