ABSTRACT:
A decoder circuit that selects a grayscale voltage responsive to digital input includes a first transistor circuit that selects grayscale voltages greater than a certain voltage and a second transistor circuit that selects grayscale voltages less than the certain voltage. The two transistor circuits are formed in separate substrates, one substrate being a well formed in the other substrate, or both substrates being wells formed in a third substrate. The substrate of the first transistor circuit is biased at a higher potential than the substrate of the second transistor circuit. This biasing scheme enables all selected grayscale voltages to propagate quickly through the decoder circuit.
