    Y-Drive board works as a path supplying the Sustain and Reset waveforms which are made in the Y-Sustain board and sent to the panel through scan driver IC’s. The Y-Drive boards supply a waveform which selects the horizontal electrodes sequentially. The 42PG20 uses 8 driver ICs on 1 Y-Drive board.
