DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING OVERLOAD PROTECTION CIRCUIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233589 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING OVERLOAD PROTECTION CIRCUIT

Simplified Explanation: The display device described in the patent application includes a display, a first power module, and a second power module. The first power module provides a first power, while the second power module provides a second power to the display. The first power module is designed to cut off the first power in case of excessive input current, monitor the second power for abnormalities, and adjust the overload criterion based on the second power in abnormal situations.

The display device has a display, a first power module, and a second power module.
The first power module supplies a first power, and the second power module supplies a second power to the display.
The first power module can disconnect the first power if the input current exceeds a certain threshold.
It monitors the second power to detect any abnormalities.
In case of abnormality in the second power module, the overload criterion is adjusted to a higher threshold.

Potential Applications: 1. Consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. 2. Industrial displays and monitors. 3. Automotive display systems. 4. Medical equipment with display screens. 5. Public information displays in transportation hubs.

Problems Solved: 1. Prevents damage to the display from excessive input current. 2. Detects abnormalities in the second power module to ensure proper functioning. 3. Adjusts the overload criterion to maintain the display's performance in abnormal situations.

Benefits: 1. Enhanced safety for the display device. 2. Improved reliability of the power supply. 3. Extended lifespan of the display. 4. Reduced maintenance and repair costs. 5. Enhanced user experience with uninterrupted display functionality.

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Power Management System for Displays This technology can be utilized in various commercial applications such as: 1. Display manufacturers for integrating into their products. 2. Electronics retailers for selling display devices with advanced power management features. 3. Power supply companies for developing specialized solutions for display devices. 4. Technology integrators for incorporating into custom display solutions. 5. Consumer electronics companies for enhancing the performance of their products.

Questions about Display Device: 1. How does the first power module determine when to cut off the first power? The first power module cuts off the first power when the input current exceeds a predefined overload criterion to prevent damage to the display.

2. What is the significance of adjusting the overload criterion based on the second power in an abnormal state? Adjusting the overload criterion ensures that the display device can adapt to abnormal situations and maintain optimal performance by setting a higher threshold for safe operation.

Original Abstract Submitted

a display device according to an embodiment includes a display, a first power module that outputs a first power, and a second power module that outputs a second power. the first power and the second power are supplied to the display. the first power module is configured to cut off the first power when an amount of input current exceeds an overload criterion, to identify whether the second power module is abnormal based on the second power, and to change the overload criterion from a first threshold current amount to a second threshold current amount that exceeds the first threshold current amount, in an abnormal state of the second power module
