  • Patent number: 10573211
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for differential sensing (DS), difference-differential sensing (DDS), correlated double sampling (CDS), and/or programmable capacitor matching to reduce display panel sensing noise. An electronic device may include one or more processors and an electronic display. The one or more processors may generate image data and adjust the image data based at least in part on display sensing feedback. The electronic display may employ sensing circuitry that obtains the display sensing feedback at least in part by applying test data to a pixel of a column of an active area of the display and differentially senses an electrical value of the pixel in comparison to a reference signal from a different column. This reference signal may provide a common mode noise reference, which is removed by the differential sensing and thereby enhances a quality of the sensed electrical value of the pixel.

  • Patent number: 10565923
    Abstract: Electronic devices and methods for compensating for noise in a display that includes sensing a current in a sensing channel of the display. Compensating for the noise also includes sensing an observation current from noise in an observation channel of the display and scaling the observation current to generate a scaled observation current. The scaled observation current is subtracted from the sense current to generate a compensated output. The compensated output is used to drive compensation operations of the display based at least in part on the compensated output to reduce effects of the noise.

  • Patent number: 10564774
    Abstract: Methods for mitigation of sensing error effects in display panels are disclosed. Display panels, such as pixel-based panels, may have circuitry to sense the luminance values, compare measurements with target luminance values, and provide corrections. Sensing errors, such as ones caused by sensor hysteresis and thermal fluctuations, may lead to overcorrections and visible artifacts. Mitigations schemes discussed herein include filtering of sensed signal with low pass filters, partial correction strategies, and feedforward sensing schemes. Circuitry that implements these schemes are also discussed.

  • Publication number: 20200005716
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to systems and methods that may reduce a reduction in visual artifacts related to hysteresis of a light emitting diode (LED) electronic display. In one example, an electronic device may include a controller. The controller is may provide a signal to a pixel of a display of the electronic device while at least a portion of the display is turned off. The signal may include a first current and a second current. The first current may be designed to increase an ambient temperature corresponding to the pixel. The second current may be generated as part of an active panel conditioning operation. By applying the first current and the second current, hysteresis settling times from the pixel may improve, therefore improving speeds of sensing and compensation operations of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 10424244
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices with displays. A display may include an array of display pixels each having a drive transistor and an organic light-emitting diode. A pulse-width-modulated current may be provided to the organic light-emitting diode during each display frame to compensate for an on-bias compensation applied to the drive transistor between display frames. The pulse-width-modulated current may be provided with a pulse-width-modulation ratio that decreases over the course of each display frame. The decrease of the pulse-width-modulation ratio for each display frame may be determined based on a peak luminance for that display frame. The reduction in flicker provided by the pulse-width-modulated current may facilitate operation of the display with a reduced refresh rate, thereby reducing power consumption by the display.
