Abstract: A method of manufacturing a display system includes forming a display element having a display active area over a silicon backplane, forming a display driver integrated circuit (DDIC), and bonding the display element to the display driver integrated circuit (DDIC). The display active area may include a light emitting diode such as an organic light emitting diode (OLED). Separately forming the display and the display circuitry may simplify formation of the OLED and allow for a higher density control interface between the display and the DDIC.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and corresponding systems and devices for compensating burn-in in an electronic display. When the electronic display is divided into multiple regions, each region can have a separate compensation parameter associated with it. The compensation parameter can be determined through estimating pixel degradation based on how the region was used over the lifetime of the electronic display, for instance, the brightness of images previously displayed in the region. Although each region may have its own compensation parameter, burn-in compensation can be performed by selecting one compensation parameter from among a set of stored parameters for use as a global compensation parameter applied across all the display pixels, i.e., the entire display area. The global compensation parameter can be selected based on which region a user is looking at. Accordingly, a display system can include or be coupled to an eye-tracking unit that monitors eye movement.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a display device with subpixels that share switch transistors that selectively connect sources of driving transistors to a high voltage source. Further, part of reset transistors or part of a select transistor may be shared across multiple subpixels. The reset transistor selectively connects an anode of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) to a low voltage source. The select transistor selectively passes through pixel data from a data line when a gate signal is received via a gate line. Driver transistors and capacitors of the subpixels are independent and not shared. In this way, the dimensions of the subpixels may be reduced and enable increase in the density of the pixels.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a display device including pixels that compensate a threshold voltage of a driving transistor using the body effect. Pixel data for the driving transistor increases the source-bulk voltage of the driving transistor during a compensation period as a result of the body effect. A separate reference voltage is not received at the pixel for the purpose of compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor. The increased source-bulk voltage is then used in an emission period of the pixel to compensate for the threshold voltage of the driving transistor.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a display device including pixels that compensate a threshold voltage of a driving transistor, the pixels arranged in a plurality of rows. The gate of the driving transistor of each pixel is coupled to a pixel data switch and a reference voltage switch, configured to selectively provide pixel data provided via a data line and a reference voltage provided via a separate reference voltage line to the gate of the driving transistor, respectively. As pixel data and the reference voltage are provided to the driving transistor via separate lines, the compensation period of the pixel may overlap in time with a data writing period of pixels of a previous row of the display device, increasing the rate at which the display device is able to program the pixels of each row.

Abstract: Described is a system including a display, a display controller, and control logic communicatively coupled to the display. The display controller determines, based on coordinates of a focus point on the display, boundaries of a first image region and a second image region in an output image to be rendered. The focus point is determined through tracking an eye movement of a user viewing the display. The first image region has a higher resolution than the second image region. The display controller is configured to send image data together with control signals to the control logic. The control signals cause the control logic to render the output image on the display using the image data. As part of rendering the second image region, the control logic outputs a shared signal onto signal lines that are coupled to light sources in a group of adjacent rows or columns.

The controller may be configured to determine an image content parameter for each of one or more portions of a displayed image, and adjust a duty ratio for corresponding parts of the display based on the image content parameter associated with the respective one or more portions of the displayed image.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to coordinating operation of an under-display camera and a portion of a display panel over the camera to reduce impact of light emitted from the display panel during light sensing periods of the under-display camera. Depending on the level of light in the surrounding of an electronic device, the light emission period of the display panel and the light sensing period of the under-display camera are adjusted. The timing of the light emission period and the light sensing period are controlled so that a row of pixels in the display panel is not in the light emission period when corresponding row or rows of sensors in the under-display camera are in the light sensing period. In this way, the under-display camera may capture images without the influence of light emitted from the display panel.
