  • Driver circuit, display apparatus, and method of driving the same
    Publication number: 20070236435
    Abstract: A display apparatus drives a data line on a time division basis. In this process, the data line is driven twice, namely in two modes: a precharge mode and a drive mode. Before the drive mode in which a drive voltage according to display data is supplied to a data line among a set of data lines to be driven on a time division basis, a precharge voltage is supplied at least to a data line adjacent to the data line individually.

  • Timer apparatus, timer processing method, and electronic apparatus
    Publication number: 20070198869
    Abstract: The present invention relates to timer generation corresponding to a plurality of timer requests, etc. necessary for task processes of a CPU and achieves efficient timer generation. The present invention includes a count setting unit (register) presetting a timer value that should be set at the time of completion of counting in a counter (down counter) that counts down or up a lapse of time to achieve the start and switching of the timer operation even without a high-speed response in the CPU. In such a configuration, a CPU clock can be operated at lower speed and the reduction of the consumption currents can be achieved. The present invention is applied to various electronic apparatuses such as portable terminal apparatuses.

  • IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM
    Publication number: 20070154197
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus, an image processing method, and an image processing program are provided. The processing apparatus, method, and program relate to image processing executed in an AF camera, etc., and make clear a variation in an image displayed during focusing operation. The image processing apparatus includes an image-capturing element that puts out an image formed through an optical system, a focus controlling unit that controls the optical system to locate it at a focusing position, using the image obtained by the image-capturing element through the optical system, and an image processing unit that forms a pseudo-image during focusing operation of the optical system caused by the focus controlling unit, the pseudo-image showing a resolution variation enlarged to be greater than that of the image obtained by the image-capturing element.

  • Power supply circuit for driving liquid crystal display
    Patent number: 7138971
    Abstract: A drive power supply circuit for driving liquid crystal display of the present invention generates necessary levels in an LCD drive power supply circuit that generates drive levels for LCDs in an LCD controller/driver IC by means of switching connection to capacitors in a constant manner or in synchronism with the timing of LCD driving. It allows reduction in number of the components such as amplifiers for level generation and external capacitors, which in turn reduces current consumption of the entire system, chip areas, and mounting areas.
