An application processor includes a main processor and a display controller controlled by the main processor. The display controller controls a display device that is located outside the application processor and operates based on a variable frame rate scheme, receives an event signal associated with a frame update of the display device, adjusts a frame rate of the display device based on the event signal, records timing information associated with the frame update of the display device based on the event signal, and provides the timing information to the main processor.

Variable frame rate display system

A display system includes: a host processor configured to compensate at least one set of frame data based on at least one set of panel map data including a plurality of offset values corresponding to a plurality of pixels of a display panel, generate at least one set of compensated frame data, and output the compensated frame data; and a display driver integrated circuit configured to receive the compensated frame data from the host processor, and control the display panel such that at least one frame image corresponding to the compensated frame data is displayed on the display panel.

Display system performing display panel compensation and method of compensating display panel

A display system including a host processor and a display driver integrated circuit may be provided. The host processor may generate a clock signal that swings swinging between a high level and a low level, generate and output a first synchronization signal based on the clock signal, generate a wakeup interrupt by measuring a frame update period of a display panel, generates frame data based on the first synchronization signal by enabling an image providing path based on the wakeup interrupt, and output the frame data for every frame update period. The display driver integrated circuit may receive the first synchronization signal and the frame data from the host processor, and control the display panel such that a frame image corresponding to the frame data is displayed on the display panel based on the first synchronization signal without storing the frame data.

Display system and display control method for low frequency driving and low power driving

A display system includes a host processor and a display driver integrated circuit. The host processor includes a first thermal sensor. The display driver integrated circuit including a second thermal sensor that is different from the first thermal sensor. The host processor generates a first performance control signal indicating whether to increase or decrease performance of a display panel from first temperature information that is obtained from the first thermal sensor and second temperature information that is obtained from the second thermal sensor, and to output the first performance control signal. The display driver integrated circuit receives the first performance control signal from the host processor, and controls the display panel based on the first performance control signal to adjust the performance of the display panel.

Display system with thermal sensor and method of operating the same

An image processing device includes a blender and a display quality enhancer. The blender is configured to receive a plurality of layer data, generate first image data by blending the plurality of layer data, the first image data including a plurality of pixel values corresponding to a screen in a display device, and generate pixel map data including a plurality of pixel identifications (IDs) based on the plurality of layer data, the plurality of layer data representing a plurality of images to be displayed on the screen, the plurality of pixel IDs indicating display quality enhancement algorithms to be applied to the plurality of pixel values. The display quality enhancer is configured to generate second image data including a plurality of display quality enhancement pixel values by applying the display quality enhancement algorithms to the plurality of pixel values based on the first image data and the pixel map data.
