A display driver circuit receives externally-encoded image data and processes the data using a memory (graphic RAM), an internal encoder, and an external decoder configured to operate on the externally-encoded image data. The processed data is provided to a display device by a source driver of the display driver circuit. Data is processed through the graphic RAM and an internal decoder or the external decoder depending on whether a slice of the data is a currently received update slice, a recently received standby slice, or a still slice.

Display driving circuit and operating method for performing encoding and decoding

Provided are a low-power display driving circuit performing internal encoding and decoding and an operating method thereof. The display driving circuit includes a memory configured to store an input bit stream encoded by an encoder and a controller configured to determine a data path through which output frame data in a second frame period passes according to whether internal encoding is successful in a first frame period, wherein, when the internal encoding is successful, the controller performs internal encoding in the second frame period, stores a generated internal bit stream in the memory, allows the internal bit stream to pass through a low-power path to generate the output frame data, and when the internal encoding fails, the controller generates the output frame data by allowing the input bit stream to pass through a normal path in the second frame period, changes an encoding setting of an internal encoder, and repeats the internal encoding.
