Touch and Display Driver Integration - Flexible LTPO AMOLED In November 2021, FocalTech launched a new AMOLED wearable IDC, the model FT2389. The launch of the FT2389 immediately captured the interest of major panel manufacturers and end-users. Within six months, it quickly passed the certifications of panel manufacturers and end-users, and was mass produced in April 2022.
AMOLED screen technology provides the means for meeting the demand for a higher screen-to-body ratio. Compared to large-screen driver ICs used in devices such as TVs, driver ICs used in smart watches, smart bracelets and other smart wearable devices are more concerned about power consumption and the number and volume of peripheral components. The FT2389 provides features such as ultra-low power consumption, strong anti-ESD capability, and fewer peripheral components. Furthermore, it integrates driver display and touch functions to lower the number of FPC used to one piece compared to a two-IC solution, which not only lessens the number of FPC layers and shrinks the machine size, but also reduces costs. |
