  • Publication number: 20180174527
    Abstract: An electrowetting display device includes a plurality of pixels positioned between a first support plate and a second support plate. A display driver provides addressing signals to the plurality of pixels. The electrowetting display device includes a packaged integrated circuit that includes an input pin configured to electrically connected to a host processor, an output pin electrically connected to the display driver, and an input interface configured to receive image data from a host processor through the input pin. The packaged integrated circuit includes a rendering engine configured to generate a luminance value for a first pixel in the plurality of pixels using the image data, and a memory controller configured transmit a data signal through the output pin to cause the display driver to apply a driving voltage to the first pixel in the plurality of pixels. The driving voltage is at least partially determined by the luminance value.

    Abstract: An electrowetting display device includes a plurality of pixels and a packaged integrated circuit that includes an input pin configured to electrically connect to a host processor, an output pin configured to electrically connect to a display driver, a memory controller configured to store luminance values, and an integrated circuit configured to implement a rendering engine. The rendering engine receives a first red value, a first green value, and a first blue value from the input pin, converts the first red value, the first green value, and the first blue value into a first red luminance value, a first green luminance value, a first blue luminance value, and a first white luminance value for a first pixel in a plurality of pixels, and transmits the first red luminance value, the first green luminance value, the first blue luminance value, and the first white luminance value to the memory controller.
