Abstract: A level-shifter circuit that uses a gating signal is disclosed. The level-shifter circuit may initialize a shift node in response to a deactivation of a gating signal and an input signal. When the gating signal is activated, the level-shifter circuit may float the shift node, which can then be charged to a voltage level greater than that of an input signal. The level-shifter circuit may use the voltage level of the shift node to generate at least one output signal.

The content-addressable control circuitry may include circuitry to perform subframe dithering to generate control signals to control the display pixels of the pixel active array.

Abstract: Content-addressable memory-in-display (CAMiD) electronic displays and circuitry are provided. An electronic display may include a pixel active array and a number of content-addressable control cells. Each control cell controls a respective display pixel of the pixel active array. Each control cell includes a comparator to generate a control signal to control the respective display pixel of the pixel active array based on a comparison between pixel data for the respective display pixel and one or more counters corresponding to a gray level.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a display panel and a display driver. The display panel may include multiple pixels each receiving a supply voltage and a respective data voltage to emit light. The display driver may include a low drop-out regulator (LDO) to provide the supply voltage to the pixels. The LDO may operate in a normal operation mode and a hard park mode. In the normal operation mode, the LDO may generate the supply voltage based on receiving a reference voltage and a bias voltage within a bias voltage range to operate in the normal operation mode. In the hard park mode, the LDO may become idle (e.g., shut-down mode) based on receiving a hard park mode voltages from dedicated replacement circuits. For example, including the dedicated reference voltage replacement circuit with the display driver may improve reliability and efficiency of the electronic device when de-energizing the LDO.

Abstract: An integrated touchscreen can include light emitting diodes or organic light emitting diodes (LEDs/OLEDs), display chiplets and touch chiplets disposed in a visible area of the integrated touch screen. For example, the LEDs/OLEDs, display chiplets and touch chiplets can be placed on a substrate by a micro-transfer tool. The integrated touchscreen can also include electrodes disposed in the visible area of the integrated touch screen. The electrodes can be capable of providing display functionality via the one or more display chiplets during display operation (e.g., operating as cathode terminals of the LEDs during the display operation) and capable of providing touch functionality via the touch chiplets during touch operation (e.g., touch node electrodes can be formed from groups of the electrodes and sensed). In some examples, the touch node electrodes can be formed and coupled to touch chiplets via the display chiplets.

Abstract: Touch sensitive display technologies (e.g., integrated touch-display pixel-based systems) are evolving to contain more analog and digital circuits inside the panel itself instead of the traditionally simple thin-film transistors. This improves the display characteristics but makes those circuits more vulnerable to the impact of external ESD strikes, which can degrade the user experience. This disclosure describes a series of circuits and techniques to mitigate the impact of these discharges on front of screen artifacts and potential false touches. These circuits and techniques may include: performing configuration-only panel updates independently of the image refresh rate, improving the in-panel memory circuits to make them resistant to unexpected pin toggles via disabling of a write path in response to a read clock, implementing a pin corruption detector and implementing a supply injection detector.

Abstract: A method of adjusting a test gray voltages applied to a component of an electronic display during a test frame between image frames, wherein the adjustment is based at least in part on the control signal to the component during a prior image frame. The method may reduce hysteresis effects on the extraction of sensed currents of the component during the test frame, which may increase the accuracy and/or consistency of determined parameters evaluated from the sensed currents. The determined parameters may include temperature and/or aging of the component. The determined parameters may be used to adjust control signals for the component and other components in a region near the component during the next image frame.
