DISPLAY DEVICE, METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18505307 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE, METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The display device described in the patent application includes a timing controller that generates different control signals at different frame frequencies, pixels connected to scan lines, data lines, and emission control lines, and an emission driver that supplies an emission control signal in response to an emission start signal.

  • The timing controller generates a first control signal using a first clock signal at a first frame frequency, and a second control signal using a second clock signal at a second frame frequency.
  • The emission driver supplies the emission control signal to the emission control lines based on the emission start signal included in the control signals.
  • The number of off periods of the emission control signal in one frame at the first frame frequency is equal to the number of off periods in one frame at the second frame frequency.

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in various display devices such as televisions, monitors, and digital signage.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in efficiently controlling the emission of pixels in a display device at different frame frequencies.

Benefits

- Improved display performance - Enhanced energy efficiency - Better control over pixel emission

Potential Commercial Applications

"Display Device with Variable Frame Frequency Control" could find applications in consumer electronics, advertising displays, and industrial monitors.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be display devices with fixed frame frequencies and control signals, lacking the flexibility to adjust emission based on different frame rates.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact the overall power consumption of the display device?

The patent application does not provide specific details on the power consumption implications of the technology.

Are there any limitations to the number of frame frequencies that can be supported by this technology?

The patent application does not mention any limitations on the number of frame frequencies that can be controlled by the timing controller.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a timing controller configured to generate a first control signal using a first clock signal when driven at a first frame frequency, and generate a second control signal using a second clock signal when driven at a second frame frequency different from the first frame frequency, pixels connected to scan lines, data lines, and emission control lines, and an emission driver configured to supply an emission control signal to the emission control lines in response to an emission start signal included in the first control signal or the second control signal. The number of off periods of the emission control signal included in one frame driven at the first frame frequency is equal to the number of off periods of the emission control signal included in one frame driven at the second frame frequency.
