  • Publication number: 20240194106
    Abstract: A light emitter that operates through a display may cause display artifacts, even when the light emitter operates using non-visible wavelengths. To mitigate artifacts caused by a light emitter operating through a display, the display may have a higher density of thin-film transistor sub-pixels than emissive sub-pixels. This allows for a region in the display to include emissive sub-pixels but be free of thin-film transistor sub-pixels. The light emitter may operate through this region in the display. Additionally, to reduce the amount of space occupied in the inactive area of a display by gate driver circuitry, at least a portion of the gate driver circuitry may be positioned in the active area of the display. To accommodate the gate driver circuitry, emissive sub-pixels may be laterally shifted relative to corresponding thin-film transistor sub-pixels.

  • Patent number: 11943643
    Abstract: An access point (AP) and a station (STA) communicate with each other, with the AP indicating to the STA either or both of a preamble detection (PD) channel and a signaling (SIG) content channel and with the STA being initially monitoring a primary frequency segment of a plurality of frequency segments in an operating bandwidth of the AP. A downlink (DL) or triggered uplink (UL) communication is performed between the AP and the STA during a transmission opportunity (TXOP) such that: (i) during the TXOP, the STA monitors a preamble on the PD channel and decodes a SIG content on the SIG content channel; and (ii) after an end of the TXOP, the STA switches to the primary frequency segment.

  • Publication number: 20240068754
    Abstract: A heat dissipation module used for an electronic device is provided. The electronic device has a heat source. The heat dissipation module includes an evaporator, a plurality of heat conducting components, a pipe connected to the evaporator to form a loop, and a working fluid filled in the loop. An exterior of the evaporator has a heat conducting zone thermally contacted with the heat source to absorb heat generated from the heat source. The heat conducting components are disposed in the evaporator, located at an interior of the evaporator corresponding to the heat conducting zone. The heat conducting components are in pillar shape or rib shape respectively. The working fluid in liquid passes through the evaporator, absorbs heat, and is transformed into vapor to flow out of the evaporator. Each of the heat conducting components in rib shape is oriented in a flow direction of the working fluid.

  • Patent number: 11854490
    Abstract: To reduce the amount of space occupied in the inactive area of a display by gate driver circuitry, at least a portion of the gate driver circuitry may be positioned in the active area of the display. To accommodate the gate driver circuitry, emissive sub-pixels may be laterally shifted relative to corresponding thin-film transistor sub-pixels. This allows for the thin-film transistor sub-pixels to be grouped adjacent to the central area of the active area, leaving room along an edge of the active area to accommodate one or more additional display components such as gate driver circuitry or fanout portions of data lines.

  • Publication number: 20230171988
    Abstract: An electronic device may have a display such as an organic light-emitting diode display. The organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode pixels that each have OLED layers interposed between a cathode and an anode. A first passivation layer, a first planarization layer, and a second passivation layer may be formed over the cathode. The first and second passivation layers may be formed from inorganic material. A second planarization layer may be formed over the second passivation layer between the second passivation layer and a polarizer. The second planarization layer may planarize the polarizer at the edges of the active area of the display where the polarizer would otherwise have a steep taper. Planarizing the polarizer in this way mitigates undesirable secondary reflections off of the polarizer. The first and second planarization layers may be formed from organic material.

  • Patent number: 11495176
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a display and a sensor under the display. The display may include pixels having emission transistors that are controlled by emission signals. The emission signals are controlled using a pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme to control the brightness of the display. The emission signals may further include a localized sensor blackout pulse configured to generate a localized sensor blackout region that overlaps with the sensor to reduce any undesired back emission of light emitted from the display. The sensor blackout pulse may be automatically generated periodically or generated in an on-demand basis once per frame, multiple times per frame time, or once every multiple frames. Any luminance degradation caused by the sensor blackout pulse may be compensated by boosting the luminance and/or by extending the duration of each emission on pulse.

  • Publication number: 20210035499
    Abstract: Electronic devices may include displays having organic light-emitting diode pixels, display driver circuitry, and gate driver circuitry. To reduce the amount of space occupied in the inactive area of a display by the gate driver circuitry, one or more of the shift registers in the gate driver circuitry may include register circuits that are shared by multiple rows of pixels. Different drivers may use different clock frequencies to ensure synchronous operation of the display even when some register circuits share pixel rows. For increased flexibility in the arrangement of the register circuits in the shift registers, one or more of the shift registers may be split across the active area of the display. In some cases, one of the emission drivers may be omitted from the gate driver circuitry and a single emission driver may provide multiple emission control signals for the pixels.

  • Patent number: 10691227
    Abstract: A mouse device includes a main body, an air cushion and a first hidden key. The first hidden key is located at a first side of the main body. The air cushion is located under the main body, and contactable with a working surface. The first hidden key is arranged between the main body and the air cushion. The first hidden key is not exposed outside. When the main body is leaned in a first direction and pressed down, the first hidden key is triggered to generate a first leaning signal. The first hidden key can be used to replace the key of the conventional keyboard. Due to the structure of the mouse device, the mouse device can be operated more intuitively.

  • Publication number: 20190371237
    Abstract: A display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode display pixels operating at a low refresh rate. Each display pixel may include a drive transistor coupled in series with one or more emission transistors and a respective organic light-emitting diode (OLED). A semiconducting-oxide transistor may be coupled between a drain terminal and a gate terminal of the drive transistor to help reduce leakage during low-refresh-rate display operations. A silicon transistor may be further interposed between the semiconducting-oxide transistor and the gate terminal of the drive transistor. One or more capacitor structures may be coupled to the source terminal and/or the drain terminal of the semiconducting-oxide transistor to reduce rebalancing current that might flow through the semiconducting-oxide transistor as it is turned off. Configured in this way, any emission current flowing through the OLED will be insensitive to any potential drift in the threshold voltage of the semiconducting-oxide transistor.
