Timing Controller means any portion of an integrated circuit, product or application, the function of which is to generate control signals, synchronization signals, and/or clock signals (independently or in conjunction with other circuitry or devices) required for interfacing to a display panel of any kind (LCD panels, TV panels, etc.). Timing Controller shall include any circuitry or functionality for processing of the type that is used for bit compensation for the purpose of adjusting contrast and brightness, color compensation, overdrive compensation, line brightness compensation, plane brightness compensation, response time compensation, dithering such as 10 bit to 8 bit, or 12 bit to 8 bit conversion, frame buffering and similar panel-glass specific characteristics.
