DISPLAY PANEL DRIVER AND METHOD OF DRIVING DISPLAY PANEL USING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18199093 titled 'DISPLAY PANEL DRIVER AND METHOD OF DRIVING DISPLAY PANEL USING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display panel driver that includes a driving controller and a data driver to convert input image data into a data signal and then into a data voltage, respectively. The driving controller utilizes lookup tables to store data signal values corresponding to grayscale values of the input image data based on different input maximum luminance levels.

  • The driving controller includes multiple lookup tables storing data signal values based on grayscale values of input image data and different input maximum luminance levels.
  • The total number of data signal values stored in each lookup table varies depending on the input maximum luminance level.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various display panels, such as LCD screens, OLED displays, and LED screens.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient conversion of input image data into data signals for display panels. 2. Accurate representation of grayscale values based on different input maximum luminance levels.

Benefits

1. Improved image quality on display panels. 2. Enhanced control over luminance levels for better visual experience.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Display Panel Driver Technology for Enhanced Image Quality"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to display panel drivers with lookup tables for grayscale value conversion based on different luminance levels.

Original Abstract Submitted

A display panel driver includes: a driving controller receiving input image data and converting the input image data into a data signal and a data driver converting the data signal into a data voltage. The driving controller includes a plurality of lookup tables storing data signal values corresponding to grayscale values of the input image data based on an input maximum luminance, and a total number of the data signal values stored in a first lookup table corresponding to a first input maximum luminance is different from a total number of the data signal values stored in a second lookup table corresponding to a second input maximum luminance.
