Abstract: A display device may include rows of pixels that display image data on a display and a circuit. The circuit may receive pixel data value of image data for a pixel in a first row of the rows of pixels, determine a weight factor to apply to the pixel data value based on a position of the first row with respect to the other rows, such that each row is associated with a current-resistance (IR) drop across the display. The weight factor is determined based on a respective IR drop associated with the first row. The circuit may also generate a weighted pixel data value based on the weight factor and the pixel data value and send the weighted pixel data value to a display driver circuit that renders the image data via the display.

Abstract: An electronic device includes processors that generate image data. The electronic device also includes an electronic display that displays the image data over a first frame duration by programming a first row of display pixels with the image data. The electronic display also displays the image data over the first frame duration by causing the first row of display pixels to emit light for an emission duration that is based at least in part on a first luminance of the image data. The electronic display further displays the image data over the first frame duration by resetting the first row of pixels at least two times before an end of the first frame duration.

Abstract: A display may have an array of pixels. Due to the presence of a notch in the display, the display may have some rows that are shorter than other rows in the display, and accordingly different gate line loading. To account for the gate line loading variations, the display driver circuitry may have gate driver circuits that provide different gate line signals to different rows of pixels within the display. In other arrangement, luminance adjustment circuitry may receive image data and generate corresponding compensated image data to account for gate line loading variations between rows of pixels in the display. The image data may be compensated based on the location of the pixel, the gray level of the image data, the display brightness, and/or temperature.

Abstract: Electronic devices, storage medium containing instructions, and methods pertain to cancelling noise that results from application of clocks/clock drivers of a display. The electronic display may inject counter noise into the cathode. For example, the counter noise may be injected via a sensing layer, via unused clocks, and/or via a power rail of the display.

Abstract: Circuits, methods, and apparatus that may estimate the power being consumed by an OLED display screen of an electronic device, may provide further information about that power usage, may modify or change functions performed by the electronic device based on that power usage, and may inform an application's developer about the amount of power being used by the electronic device while the electronic device is running the application. One example may estimate the power being used by an OLED display screen of an electronic device by determining the content of images being displayed during a duration. The estimated power may then be presented to a user. The estimated power may be used in decisions to modify or change parameters of the screen or other device components.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a display with an array of pixels. The device may have an array of components such as an array of light sensors for capturing fingerprints of a user through an array of corresponding transparent windows in the display. A capacitive touch sensor, proximity sensor, force sensor, or other sensor may be used by control circuitry in the device to monitor for the presence of a user's finger over the array of light sensors. In response, the control circuitry can direct the display to illuminate a subset of the pixels, thereby illuminating the user's finger and causing reflected light from the finger to illuminate the array of light sensors for a fingerprint capture operation. The display may have display driver circuitry that facilitates the momentary illumination of the subset of pixels with uniform flash data while image data is displayed in other portions of the display.

Abstract: Systems and methods reduce likelihood of hysteresis that reduces perceived image quality of a subsequent image frame by toggling the display pixels to relax the display pixels by overwriting previous image frame data. During non-emission periods of the pixels, the pixels may be pre-toggled or exercised to improve response time and accuracy of the pixel. Data for pixels being programmed may also be used to pre-toggle other pixels reducing overhead but increasing cross-talk. Since the amount of cross-talk is related to content of the pixels being pre-toggled, a line buffer may be used to store image data for the pixels being pre-toggled. This stored image data may be used to determine how much pre-compensation is to be applied to data for the pixels being programmed. In other words, an amount of compensation applied is based at least in part on the content (e.g., greyscale levels) of the image data.

The controller is also configured to calculate a blank time voltage level for a data line of the display based on the one or more operational characteristics, wherein the blank time voltage level corresponds to a voltage transmitted along the data line of the display immediately subsequent to image data being transmitted along the data line.

Abstract: An electronic device that includes a display is provided. The display may have a brightness that is controlled using a series of cascaded digital-to-analog converter circuits. The display may be calibrated at a series of predetermined display brightness settings. For display brightness settings that fall between two consecutive display brightness settings in the series of predetermined display brightness settings, voltage interpolation operations may be performed to obtain the corresponding display brightness settings. Performing voltage interpolations instead of digital brightness setting interpolation helps minimize luminance jumps and unexpected color shifts when adjusting the brightness of the display.

Abstract: A display may have an array of display pixels. Digital display data may be received by a digital-to-analog converter that converts the digital display data to analog display data. The magnitudes of the analog display data signals can be controlled by a regulated voltage received by the digital-to-analog converter. A brightness controller may have multiple peak luminance control (PLC) profiles. In accordance with an embodiment, a brightness setting may be processed by a lookup table to identify a pair of PLC profiles that is interpolated in order to obtain the desired regulated voltage. In accordance with another embodiment, a single PLC profile may be used that is a function of a combined parameter that takes into account both average frame luminance and the brightness setting. In accordance with yet another embodiment, a lookup table that specifies brightness setting offset values may be used to directly modulate the brightness setting.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with wireless circuitry and a display. A display driver integrated circuit in the display may have a spectrum analyzer circuit. An antenna may monitor for wireless signals. The display driver integrated circuit may use the spectrum analyzer circuit to analyze the wireless signals and determine whether there is a potential for visible display artifacts. In the presence of conditions that can lead to display artifacts, the display driver integrated circuit may adjust a gate driver control signal. Adjustments to the gate driver control signal may be made using adjustable signal dividers. The adjustments to the gate driver control signal eliminate the visible display artifacts.
