  • Patent number: 11908364
    Abstract: Provided are a low-power display driving circuit performing internal encoding and decoding and an operating method thereof. The display driving circuit includes a memory configured to store an input bit stream encoded by an encoder and a controller configured to determine a data path through which output frame data in a second frame period passes according to whether internal encoding is successful in a first frame period, wherein, when the internal encoding is successful, the controller performs internal encoding in the second frame period, stores a generated internal bit stream in the memory, allows the internal bit stream to pass through a low-power path to generate the output frame data, and when the internal encoding fails, the controller generates the output frame data by allowing the input bit stream to pass through a normal path in the second frame period, changes an encoding setting of an internal encoder, and repeats the internal encoding.

  • Publication number: 20230388522
    Abstract: A display driver circuit receives externally-encoded image data and processes the data using a memory (graphic RAM), an internal encoder, and an external decoder configured to operate on the externally-encoded image data. The processed data is provided to a display device by a source driver of the display driver circuit. Data is processed through the graphic RAM and an internal decoder or the external decoder depending on whether a slice of the data is a currently received update slice, a recently received standby slice, or a still slice.

  • Patent number: 11501721
    Abstract: A display driving circuit includes: a grayscale voltage generator configured to generate a plurality of grayscale voltages by linearly dividing a plurality of gamma tap voltages; a gamma correction module configured to calculate a compensation value with respect to an input pixel value by using a compensation model, and configured to apply the compensation value to the input pixel value to generate a compensated pixel value; and a data driver configured to receive the plurality of grayscale voltages from the grayscale voltage generator, and configured to output a data voltage corresponding to a grayscale voltage to a display panel, the grayscale voltage being selected from the plurality of grayscale voltages based on the compensated pixel value.
