SENSOR DRIVER, AND INPUT SENSING DEVICE AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SENSOR DRIVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448321 titled 'SENSOR DRIVER, AND INPUT SENSING DEVICE AND DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SENSOR DRIVER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display device with a display panel, pixels, a display driver, a sensor, a sensor driver, and memory sharing a signal line. The sensor driver informs the display driver of its desire to access the memory through a flag signal line.
- Display device with display panel, pixels, display driver, sensor, sensor driver, and memory
- Sensor driver transmits driving signal to sensor and receives sensing signals
- Display driver and sensor driver share a signal line connected to memory
- Sensor driver outputs flag signal to inform display driver of desire to access memory
Potential Applications
- Touchscreen displays
- Gesture recognition systems
- Proximity sensors in electronic devices
Problems Solved
- Efficient memory access for sensor data
- Improved coordination between display and sensor drivers
Benefits
- Faster response times for sensor data
- Reduced power consumption
- Enhanced user experience with interactive displays
Original Abstract Submitted
A display device includes a display panel including pixels. A display driver provides a data signal to the display panel. A sensor overlaps the display panel. A sensor driver transmits a driving signal to the sensor and receives sensing signals corresponding to the driving signal from the sensor. The display driver and the sensor driver share a signal line and are connected to a memory through the signal line. The display driver and the sensor driver are interconnected through a flag signal line. The sensor driver outputs a flag signal to the flag signal line to inform the display driver that the sensor driver desires to access the memory.
