Abstract: An image data transfer system includes a receiver and a transmitter configured to sequentially receive compressed image data and sequentially transmit transmission data corresponding to the compressed image data to the receiver. The transmitter is configured to, in transmitting a specific transmission data, perform data comparison of bits of a compressed image body data of a specific compressed image data with bits of a previous transmission data transmitted over signal lines allocated to the compressed image body data, incorporate the compressed image body data of the specific compressed image data or the bit-inverted data corresponding thereto into the specific transmission data, in response to the result of the data comparison, and incorporate the compression code of the specific compressed image data into the specific transmission data independently of the result of the data comparison.

Abstract: Provided is a display control device capable of coping with high-resolution display readily in terms of conducting data write and read on a frame buffer memory in time for the timing of display. The display control device has a plurality of line buffers, and is arranged so that a writing process for writing, into part of the line buffers, display lines of display data from outside, and a reading process for reading out written display lines of display data from other line buffers can be conducted in parallel. In the display control device, display-line data read out from the line buffers are compressed and stored in the frame buffer memory. The compression-display data read out from the frame buffer memory are read out for each line, and decompressed into display lines of display data. The decompressed display data are used to drive signal electrodes of a display device.

Abstract: The present invention provides a display control semiconductor integrated circuit having therein a RAM, capable of repairing a defective bit included in the RAM and improving the yield without significantly increasing the occupation area. A liquid crystal controller/driver in which a RAM for storing display data is provided in a chip and the storage capacity of the built-in RAM is determined according to the size of a display screen of a liquid crystal panel to be driven, includes a fuse circuit for setting a defect address, and a comparing circuit for comparing the defect address set in the fuse circuit with an input address. The liquid crystal controller/driver also has a redundant circuit, when the addresses match each other, for replacing the input address with an address that instructs the spare memory area and supplying the address to an address decoder.
