DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF DRIVING DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17814411 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF DRIVING DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a slidable display device that includes a display panel and a data driver. The display panel has a first display area, a second display area that can be in a taken-in or taken-out position, and a pad area located on one side of the first display area. The display panel has pixels in both the first and second display areas and can be driven in either a first mode where only the first display area shows an image or a second mode where both the first and second display areas show an image. The data driver generates data voltages based on pixel data, sends these data voltages to the pixels, and controls the order in which the data voltages are output in the second mode.

  • Slidable display device with a display panel and data driver
  • Display panel has a first display area, a second display area, and a pad area
  • Pixels are present in both the first and second display areas
  • Display panel can be driven in a first mode (only first display area shows image) or a second mode (both display areas show image)
  • Data driver generates data voltages based on pixel data
  • Data voltages are output to the pixels
  • Data driver controls the order of data voltage output in the second mode

Potential Applications

  • Mobile devices with expandable screens
  • Tablets or laptops with adjustable display sizes
  • Gaming devices with sliding screens for enhanced gameplay

Problems Solved

  • Limited screen size in portable devices
  • Inability to adjust screen size based on user preferences or needs
  • Difficulty in providing a larger display area without increasing the overall size of the device

Benefits

  • Enhanced user experience with adjustable screen size
  • Improved portability with a slidable display
  • Increased versatility in device usage with expandable screen capabilities


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device, which is a slidable display device, includes a display panel and a data driver. The display panel includes a first display area, a second display area that is in one of a taken-in position and a taken-out-of position of the display device, and a pad area located on one side of the first display area. The display panel includes pixels disposed in the first and second display areas, and is driven in a first mode in which an image is displayed in the first display area or a second mode in which an image is displayed in the first and second display areas. The data driver generates data voltages based on pixel data, outputs the data voltages to the pixels, and controls an order of the data voltages output in the second mode.
