Patent number: 11948520Abstract: PWM-frame rate misalignment is mitigated through implementation of a discrete variable refresh rate (VRR) scheme. A target frame rate is limited to a frame rate selected from only those frame rates that facilitate alignment of each frame period to a specified edge of a PWM cycle of a brightness control signal of a display panel. This alignment results in each frame period at the selected frame rate starting at a same point in a corresponding PWM cycle and ending at a same point in a corresponding PWM cycle to help ensure a constant effective duty cycle across each successive frame period, which in turn mitigates perception of flicker that otherwise would arise. Further, the discrete VRR scheme can employ a compensation mode for compensating for the delay in rendering or otherwise obtaining a frame for display so as to maintain a consistent duty cycle in the brightness control signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2020Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Sang Young Youn, Sun-il Chang, Wonjae Choi, Sangmoo Choi

Publication number: 20240096280Abstract: A first image is rendered on an active area of an OLED display panel with a first refresh rate that is below a threshold refresh rate and, subsequent to rendering the first image with the first refresh rate, a second image that is different from the first image is rendered on the active area, where the rendering of the second image includes rendering a number of initial frames of the second image at a second refresh rate that is at or above the threshold refresh rate.

Patent number: 11929018Abstract: A frame generation subsystem renders a sequence of frames and a display control subsystem provides a brightness control signal configured to control a brightness of frames displayed at a display panel via pulse width modulation (PWM) of the brightness control signal and determines a deviation in a duty cycle of a first PWM period of the brightness control signal from a default duty cycle resulting from a delayed rendering of a frame. The display control subsystem adjusts a duty cycle of at least a second PWM period to compensate for the deviation in the duty cycle of the first PWM period. The resulting average duty cycle of the brightness control signal over the two frame periods is approximately equal to a default duty cycle and thereby mitigates viewable flicker resulting from the duty cycle change caused by the delayed rendering.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2020Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Sang Young Youn, Sun-il Chang, Wonjae Choi, Hyunchul Kim

Patent number: 11842678Abstract: This document describes techniques and apparatuses for a high-brightness mode on an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. The techniques and apparatuses set a high-brightness value in a register of a display driver integrated circuit (DDIC) associated with the OLED display of on electronic device. A processor of the electronic device provides a fewer-pulses command to the DDIC, which adjusts a pulse number to control the OLED display at fewer pulses per period. A gamma correction is determined based on the high-brightness value and used to alter content to be presented on the OLED display. As a result, fewer pulses are used in combination with the gamma correction to provide content on the OLED display at a high brightness.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2021Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Chien-Hui Wen, Sang Young Youn
