DISPLAY DRIVER INTEGRATED CIRCUIT AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A display driver integrated circuit (IC) comprising:
- a booster configured to boost an external power supply voltage applied to a first node to a voltage level of an internal power supply voltage applied to a second node; and
a power level adjustor configured to,form a current path between the second node and ground, if the display driver IC enters a first mode, andform a current path between the first node and the second node, if the internal power supply voltage at the second node is equal to a reference voltage.

Abstract
A display driver integrated circuit (IC) and an electronic apparatus including the same are provided. The display driver IC includes a booster configured to boost an external power supply voltage applied to a first node to a same level as that of an internal power supply voltage, and a power supplier including a power level adjustor configured to activate a current path between a second node and ground in response to a control signal indicating entry into a first mode and form a current path between the first node and the second node when the internal power supply voltage at the second node is equal to a reference voltage.

10. An electronic apparatus comprising:
-
an in-cell type touch panel including at least one display pixel and at least one touch pixel; a power management IC (PMIC) configured to generate an external power supply voltage, and to apply the external power supply voltage to a first node; and a display driver integrated circuit (IC) configured to drive the in-cell type touch panel, the display driver IC including a power supplier configured to, activate a first current path connecting the first node to ground when the display driver IC enters a first mode, and activate a second current path connecting the first node to a second node after activating the first current path, the second node having an internal power supply voltage applied thereto. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A display driver integrated circuit (IC) comprising:
-
a booster configured to selectively boost an external voltage applied to a first node to an internal voltage applied to a second node; and a power level adjusting circuit configured to, connect the second node to ground via a first current path to decrease the internal voltage, if the display driver IC enters a low power mode, deactivate the first current path to ground, if the internal voltage reaches a reference voltage, and connect the first node to the second node via a second current path after deactivating the first current path such that the external voltage discharges to a level of the internal voltage. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
