Abstract: Systems and methods are described here to compensate for crosstalk (e.g., coupling distortions) that may be caused by a fanout overlaid or otherwise affecting signals transmitted within an active area of an electronic display. The systems and methods may be based on buffered previous image data. Technical effects associated with compensating for the crosstalk may include improved display of image frames since some image artifacts are mitigated and/or made unperceivable or eliminated.

Abstract: An electronic device may include processing circuitry configured to generate a first frame of image content and a second frame of image content. The second frame of image content is different from the first frame of image content. The electronic device may also include a display configured to display the first frame of image content at a first refresh rate. In response to receiving the second frame of image content, the electronic device may initially increase the refresh rate before tapering back to the first refresh rate while displaying the second frame of image content.

Abstract: Systems and methods for programming an electronic display in a double-row manner are provided. A system may include processing circuitry that generates image data and an electronic display that programs multiple rows of display pixels with different pixel data of the image data at the same time. This may allow double-row interlaced driving to reduce or eliminate image artifacts due to intra-frame pauses.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed towards systems and methods of power saving in electronic displays based on changing clock signal frequencies supplied to the gate-in-panel (GIP) circuitry during extended blanking modes of the electronic display. The display driver circuitry of the display may reduce and/or halt clock signal frequencies sent to GIP circuitry in the display, to reduce power output during extended blanking modes of the electronic display.

Abstract: To reduce overall power consumption for an electronic display power management integrated circuit (PMIC), one of multiple electric power converters and/or electric power regulators may be selected based on an electrical load (e.g., due to the total brightness of the content displayed) on the electronic display at a given moment. In some embodiments, the PMIC may include a less efficient heavy load converter designed with high-current handling capability and a more efficient light load (e.g., low current) converter with lower current handling capability. A controller may dynamically select between the converters depending on a present load or an expected load on the electronic display.

Abstract: An electronic device may include an electronic display having multiple display pixels to display an image based on analog voltage signals. The electronic device may also include optical calibration circuitry to generate digital-to-analog converter (DAC) data based on image data associated with the image and dither circuitry to reduce a bit-depth of the DAC data, generating dithered DAC data. Additionally, the electronic device may include a gamma generator having one or more DACs to generate the analog voltage signals based on the dithered DAC data, which may instruct the gamma generator to generate the analog voltage signals indicative of the image data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for providing intra-frame luminance scaling to avoid drawing excessive power while still providing exceptional brightness. An instantaneous average pixel luminance of an electronic display may be determined. The instantaneous average pixel luminance may correspond to an amount of light currently being emitted by the electronic display due to a previous image frame and a current image frame. Based at least in part on the instantaneous average pixel luminance, the luminance of a subset of pixels of image data of the current image frame may be adjusted, thereby allowing the electronic display to operate at a relatively high brightness level without exceeding a power limit.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for mitigating visual artifacts by dynamically tuning bias voltages applied to display pixels. An electronic display may include a display pixel and a bias voltage supply. The bias voltage supply may supply a first bias voltage to the display pixel for a first subframe of a frame of image data. The bias voltage supply may supply a different second bias voltage to the display pixel for a second subframe of the frame of image data. This may mitigate certain image artifacts, such as flicker or variable refresh rate luminance difference, that could arise due to display pixel hysteresis that varies across subframes of the image frame.

Abstract: This disclosure provide various techniques for tracking emission profiles on an electronic display. An emission profile may be applied to the electronic display in order to illuminate certain pixels and deactivate (e.g., turn off) certain pixels in the electronic display to facilitate refreshing (e.g., programming with new image data) the deactivated pixels. A real-time row-based average pixel level or average pixel luminance calculation architecture may track the one or more EM profiles to accurately model EM profile behavior, which may enable accurate calculation of the average pixel level or average pixel luminance of the electronic display at any one point in time. The accurate average pixel level or average pixel luminance calculations effectuated by the EM profile tracking may be used to reduce the IR drop, improve real-time peak-luminance control, and improve the performance of under-display sensors, among other advantages.

Abstract: External compensation of display panels may employ measurement or sensing circuitry configured to measure the output of a pixel and compensate for variations. Due to effects from the sensing circuitry, a mismatch between a target current and the actual current in the pixel may occur. Systems and methods that compensate for the effects from sensing circuitry and reduce or mitigate the mismatch are described. Systems and methods described herein include compensation circuitry that is capable of employing correction factors to compensate for the effects due to the presence of sensing circuitry. Methods for determining the correction factor are also described.

Abstract: A current-voltage (IV) relationship of a pixel having a diode is initially determined. A first voltage is determined that does not cause the diode to emit light, and a first current across the diode is sensed by applying the first voltage. A predetermined current is determined based on the first voltage and the IV relationship. A ratio is determined based on the first current, a target current, and the predetermined current. A ratio voltage is determined by applying the ratio to a predetermined target voltage. If the first current is less than the predetermined current, then the ratio voltage is applied to supply a target current to the diode. If the first current is greater than the predetermined current, then a second voltage is determined by averaging the first test voltage and the ratio voltage, and the second voltage is applied to supply the target current to the diode.

Compensating for the effects may preserve or increase a uniformity of transmission of the display.

Abstract: Systems and methods are presently disclosed that compensate for temperature-based parasitic capacitance variation of a pixel of a display by causing a driver transistor of the pixel to enter an ohmic or linear region. A lookup table is generated based on temperatures at the pixel, diode voltages, and target diode currents or luminances at a diode of the pixel. A correction voltage is determined based on a target diode current or luminance, a temperature at the pixel, and the lookup table. A data voltage is applied corresponding to the target diode current or luminance and the correction voltage to the driver transistor.

Abstract: A system includes an electronic display panel that has a plurality of pixels configured to depict frames of image data. The electronic display also includes display driver circuitry configured to, for a first frame of image data representing first image content, modify a gate-to-source voltage of a transistor of a first pixel of the plurality of pixels to a content-dependent first gate-to-source voltage. Additionally, after modifying the gate-to-source voltage to the first gate-to-source voltage, the display driver circuitry is configured to program the first pixel by modifying the gate-to-source voltage to a gate-to-source programming voltage that differs from the first gate-to-source voltage and is based on image data associated with the pixel from the first frame of the image data. Furthermore, the display driver circuitry is configured to cause the plurality of pixels to emit light.
