  • Patent number: 11972077
    Abstract: A resetting system includes a driver that controls a touchscreen, the driver including a driver communication interface that defines a bus for transferring a transfer signal; and an on-screen display (OSD) device that generates an OSD signal representing a predetermined reset image in response to a predetermined event, the OSD signal superimposing over pixels and graphics data to be rendered on the touchscreen; and a host that transfers the transfer signal to or from the driver, the host including a host communication interface that defines the bus for transferring the transfer signal to or from the driver.

  • Publication number: 20240111377
    Abstract: A touch detection circuitry includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a controller, and a packet generator. The ADC is arranged to convert touch signals of a touch panel from analog form into digital form. The controller is electrically connected to the ADC, and is configured to calculate at least one coordinate point and at least one touch size respectively corresponding to at least one touch event on the touch panel based on the touch signals. The packet generator is electrically connected to the controller, and is configured to encapsulate the at least one coordinate point and the at least one touch size into a touch data packet.

  • Patent number: 11735080
    Abstract: The display system includes an automotive system, a display panel, and a panel driving circuit. The panel driving circuit receives a frame from the automotive system and determines if a panel error with respect to the display panel occurs. If the panel error occurs, the panel driving circuit replaces a portion of the frame with an error icon to generate a prompt frame, and transmit the prompt frame to the display panel. If the panel error does not occur, the panel driving circuit transmits the frame to the display panel.
