Wai Kin Cheng has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11361707
    Abstract: A display driver has current reference units and current-generating units. Each current reference unit generates a reference current and scaling it to form a scaled reference current. Each current-generating unit generates an output current from one scaled reference current to drive a selected light emitter (LE) of a LE matrix over a time slice allocated for driving the selected LE. Each current-generating unit has a switching circuit modulating the scaled reference current according to a switching sequence to form output current pulses to drive a LE.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: June 14, 2022

  • Patent number: 9210390
    Abstract: A poly-phase frame modulation system includes a phase matrix look-up table being configured for generating a reference phase matrix; a first phase modulator being configured for generating a first modulated output by taking in the data from a red channel and the sum of the reference phase matrix and a frame offset; a second phase modulator being configured for generating a second modulated output by taking in the data from a green channel and the sum of the reference phase matrix, the frame offset and a first channel offset; and a third phase modulator being configured for generating a third modulated output by taking in the data from a blue channel and the sum of the reference phase matrix, the frame offset and a second channel offset.

  • Publication number: 20150029131
    Abstract: A method is provided for recognizing touches by at least a finger on a touch panel and determining positions of the touches by analyzing a change in capacitance of electrodes of the touch panel. The change in capacitance is represented as at least an array. A digital signal processing unit and a touch panel that implement the method are also provided.
