DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18197971 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display apparatus that includes a display panel with two regions, a controller to process source data and generate an image signal, a timing controller to generate a driving signal for the display panel, and a cable to transmit the driving signal to the display panel. The controller transmits a pattern image signal to the timing controller to display a pattern image on the first and second regions sequentially. It also determines the connection state of the cable based on the first and second current values outputted from the pattern image displayed in each region.
- The display apparatus includes a display panel with two regions and a controller to process source data and generate an image signal.
- A timing controller is responsible for generating a driving signal to drive the display panel based on the image signal.
- A cable is connected to the display panel to transmit the driving signal.
- The controller transmits a pattern image signal to the timing controller to display a pattern image on the first and second regions in a sequential manner.
- The connection state of the cable is determined by analyzing the first and second current values outputted based on the pattern image displayed in each region.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Display devices with improved cable connection monitoring.
- Enhanced display quality and performance.
- Suitable for various display applications such as televisions, computer monitors, and mobile devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Ensures proper cable connection by monitoring the current values outputted from the displayed pattern image.
- Helps identify and address cable connection issues in real-time.
- Prevents display malfunctions or degradation caused by faulty cable connections.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved reliability and stability of display devices.
- Enhanced user experience with uninterrupted and high-quality display performance.
- Efficient troubleshooting and maintenance of display systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display apparatus includes: a display panel including a first region and a second region; a controller to process source data and to generate an image signal; a timing controller to generate a driving signal for driving the display panel based on the image signal; and a cable connected to the display panel and to transmit the driving signal to the display panel. The controller transmits, to the timing controller, a pattern image signal for displaying a pattern image on the first and the second regions in a sequential manner; and determines a connection state of the cable based on (i) a first current value, which is output based on the pattern image displayed in the first region and (ii) a second current value, which is output based on the pattern image displayed in the second region.
