場發射顯示器是極具競爭力的平面顯示器，具低驅動電壓、高發光效率、廣視角及省電等優點，本論文著重於場發射顯示器的資料驅動電路，處理由時脈控制器所傳送之信號，包含控制信號、時脈信號等，使時脈控制器所產生的控制信號能正確的傳送到顯示器面板，完成畫面的顯示。
我們將資料驅動電路分為數位與類比兩個部份，數位端部份負責處理由時脈控制器所產生的控制信號，類比端部份負責處理由數位端所產生的信號轉換成供應面板顯示畫面之驅動電壓與信號，類比端部份使用 UMC 0.5um/0.6um Embedded High Voltage 5V/80V 1P2M Process SPICE Model進行Hspice模擬。

Field Emission Display (FED) is a competitive display. There are advantages over other display panels by low driver voltage, high luminescence efficiency, and saving energy. This thesis focuses on the pixel driving circuits of the FED. The FED data driver processes the signals receiving from the timing controller, such as control signals, and timing signals. It then transforming these controls signals correctly on the FED panel and displays them as an image.
When data input into driving circuit, we divided them into two parts including digital circuit and analog circuit. Digital circuit is responsible to process the control signal which produces by the timing controller. Analog circuit is responsible to processing the signal produced by digital circuit. It transforming the driving voltage and the signal to a panel and display them as an image. We utilized the Hspice simulation in the UMC 0.5um/0.6um Embedded High Voltage 5V/80V 1P2M Process SPICE Model to design the analog circuits.
