  • Patent number: 8614719
    Abstract: A device can perform gamma correction by receiving a non-gamma compensated input; selecting, in response to the input value, a selected approximating interval out of a group of low-brightness approximating intervals and out of a group of high-brightness approximating intervals; multiplying a portion of the input value by a selected approximating interval slope to provide an intermediate result; adding the intermediate result to a selected approximating interval offset to provide the gamma compensated output value; and outputting a gamma compensated output value.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8102399
    Abstract: A device and method for data image processing. The method includes writing, image data to a certain buffer by an image data provider; characterized by repeating steps of reading, by an image processor image data from a first entry of a certain buffer, processing the image data by the image processor, and writing processed image data to a second entry of the certain buffer; wherein the repeating ends when at least two memory pages of the certain buffer are read; wherein a distance between the first and second entries is smaller than a size of a page of the certain buffer and conveniently much smaller than the size of the page; wherein the second entry includes image data that was previously read by the image processor during the certain period; and preventing an image data provider and an image data retriever form accessing the certain buffer during the repetition.

  • Patent number: 6380811
    Abstract: A signal generator (100) receives an input clock signal (X1) at a first frequency (F1) and derives an output clock signal (Y) at a second frequency (FY). An arrangement (110) using a first intermediate signal (Z) receives the input clock signal (X1) and provides a second intermediate signal (X2) by selectively providing transitions (119) of the second intermediate signal (X2) at time intervals (T2(n)) that are determined by a variable number (A+P(n)) of periods (TZ) of the first intermediate signal (Z). The second intermediate signal (X2) has a frequency (F2) that is in average (F′2) higher than the first frequency (F1). A phase-looked loop (PLL) circuit (180) locks at this average frequency (F′2) and provides the output clock signal (Y).
