The LM8342 is an integrated combination of a non-volatile register (7 bits EEPROM) and a DAC controlled current source. Using the LM8342, the VCOM calibration procedure is simplified by elimination of the potentiometer adjustment task. This adjustment task is currently performed at the factory using a trimmer adjustment tool and visual inspection. The VCOM adjustment can be done electronically in production, using the I2C compatible interface. The factory operator can physically view the screen head-on (frontal viewing) when performing this step, easing manufacturing especially for large TFT panels.
