VOLTAGE INTERPOLATING CIRCUIT

A display driver maps a selection code (a digital signal) to a reference voltage which is then used to produce a particular intensity of the radiation emitted from a pixel on a display screen (e.g., a LCD display). This mapping may be performed by one or more DACs in the display driver. However, instead of transmitting all of the different possible reference voltages to the DACs, only a subset of the reference voltages are transmitted. Each DAC may include an interpolator circuit that uses the received reference voltages to interpolate the reference voltages that were not transmitted. In this manner, the display driver may still provide the same number of unique reference voltages to a display screen while transmitting fewer reference voltages along the driver's optical channel.
