Patent number: 6404422Abstract: In an apparatus and a method for automatically controlling the screen status of a liquid crystal display, when externally inputted analogue video signals are converted to digital signals, the frequency and phase of the sampling clock signals are shifted, thereby maintaining the optimum screen status. Each time that a change occurs in the analogue video signals which are inputted from the computer main body into the display panel, the change is detected. When shifting the frequency and/or the phase of the sampling clock signals which are utilized during the conversion of the analogue video signals to digital signals, the optimum frequency and/or the phase are detected, thereby maintaining the picture quality of the screen at the optimum status. A microcomputer outputs control signals to compare first or second comparison data with reference data stored in an internal memory so as to detect the maximum value.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2000Date of Patent: June 11, 2002Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co.
