DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18070972 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display device and a method for controlling the device. The display device consists of multiple LED modules arranged in a matrix, driver integrated circuits (ICs) to drive the LED modules, and a controller connected to first line driver ICs on a first line to control the driver ICs.
- The display device includes LED modules arranged in a matrix and driver ICs to drive them.
- The controller is connected to first line driver ICs on a first line to provide a signal for controlling the driver ICs.
- Each driver IC is connected to at least one adjacent driver IC.
- The signal for controlling each driver IC includes a channel signal for controlling each channel of the LED module and a scan signal for controlling each scan line of the LED module.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Television and monitor displays
- Advertising displays
- Outdoor signage
- Automotive displays
- Virtual reality and augmented reality devices
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient control of LED modules in a display device
- Simplified wiring and connectivity between driver ICs and the controller
- Improved synchronization and coordination of LED module control signals
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced display quality and resolution
- Reduced power consumption
- Simplified manufacturing and assembly process
- Cost-effective solution for large-scale displays
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed is a display device and a method for controlling a device. The display device includes a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) modules arranged in a matrix, a plurality of driver integrated circuits (ICs) configured to drive the plurality of LED modules, and a controller connected to a plurality of first line driver ICs arranged on a first line, among the plurality of driver ICs, and configured to provide a signal for controlling the plurality of driver ICs through the plurality of first line driver ICs arranged on the first line. Each of the plurality of driver ICs is connected to at least one adjacent driver IC. The signal for controlling each of the plurality of driver ICs comprises, for each LED module corresponding to each of the plurality of driver ICs, a channel signal for controlling each channel of the LED module, and a scan signal for controlling each scan line of the LED module.
