CLOCK GENERATOR AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18158349 titled 'CLOCK GENERATOR AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display device that includes a display unit, a timing controller, a clock generator, and a gate driver. The display unit has gate lines and pixels connected to the gate lines. The timing controller generates various signals including clock signals and a common signal. The clock generator generates multiple clock signals with different phases based on the on-clock and off-clock signals. When the enable signal has a first voltage level, the clock generator inserts a common pulse into each clock signal based on the common signal. The gate driver generates gate signals based on the clock signals and provides them sequentially to the gate lines.
- The display device includes a display unit with gate lines and pixels.
- A timing controller generates on-clock, off-clock, enable, and common signals.
- A clock generator generates multiple clock signals with different phases.
- The clock generator inserts a common pulse into each clock signal based on the common signal.
- A gate driver generates gate signals based on the clock signals and provides them to the gate lines sequentially.
Potential Applications
- This display device can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and computer monitors.
- It can enhance the performance and efficiency of the display, resulting in improved image quality and reduced power consumption.
Problems Solved
- The display device solves the problem of efficiently generating gate signals for the pixels in a display unit.
- It addresses the issue of synchronizing the timing of the gate signals to ensure proper functioning of the display.
Benefits
- The display device provides improved image quality by generating accurate and synchronized gate signals.
- It reduces power consumption by efficiently generating and controlling the gate signals.
- The device enhances the overall performance and efficiency of the display unit.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display device includes a display unit including gate lines and pixels electrically coupled to the gate lines; a timing controller configured to generate an on-clock signal, an off-clock signal, an enable signal, and a common signal; a clock generator configured to generate a plurality of clock signals having different phases based on the on-clock signal and the off-clock signal, when the enable signal has a first voltage level, wherein the clock generator is to insert a common pulse into each of the plurality of clock signals based on the common signal, when the enable signal has a second voltage level different from the first voltage level; and a gate driver configured to generate gate signals based on the plurality of clock signals, and to sequentially provide the gate signals to the gate lines.
