Latest Patents

Hoonbae Kim's latest patents include a display device and method for driving the same during the display period and touch period of the display device. This invention discusses a display device where pixels of a display panel are charged to a data voltage during a pixel driving period, while touch sensors embedded in the display panel are driven during a touch sensor driving period. The device features a timing controller that transmits a preamble signal, control data, and data of an input image to a source driver integrated circuit (IC) during the pixel driving period and transmits the preamble signal to the source driver IC during the touch sensor driving period. Another notable patent is for a touch display device that includes a timing controller to generate a sync signal for controlling the timing of both the touch sensor driving period and the display driving period. This invention comprises a first phase to drive odd signal lines according to a first polarity and even signal lines according to a second polarity, followed by a second phase that reverses these polarities. Additionally, a charge share period is established between the two phases, facilitated by a set of charge sharing switches.
