A driving method of a touch display panel includes: selectively operating in a display mode and a touch detecting mode; when operating in the display mode during a first frame period, processing a first frame to generate an image processing indicator of a second frame for indicating an image processing level of the second frame; when operating in the touch detecting mode during the first frame period, generating a control signal when a touch is detected; wherein when the control signal is generated, processing the second frame according to an image processing indicator of the first frame for indicating an image processing level of the first frame when operating in the display mode during a second frame period, instead of using the image processing indicator of the second frame.

Driver integrated circuit applying image processing driving method and touch display system

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a first integrated circuit (IC) and a second IC. The direction pin of the first IC outputs a direction control signal to the direction pin of the second IC. The first IC takes a control right when the direction control signal is in a first logic state. The clock pin of the first IC outputs a first clock signal to the clock pin of the second IC when the first IC takes the control right. The second IC takes the control right when the direction control signal is in a second logic state. The clock pin of the second IC outputs a second clock signal to the clock pin of the first IC when the second IC takes the control right.

Electronic apparatus and operation method thereof

A method of waking up a device includes capturing an image by scanning a fingerprint pattern in a sleep mode; analyzing the captured image representing the scanned fingerprint pattern to obtain an amount of pixels in the captured image with respect to each brightness value; transforming the analyzed captured image into brightness distribution; operating the brightness distribution to obtain a feature value; and comparing the feature value with a pre-stored value, the device being woken up when the feature value is matched with the pre-stored value.

Device and a method of waking up the same

A scanning method of a touch panel is provided. The touch panel has a horizontal channel group including a plurality of horizontal channels and a vertical channel group including a plurality of vertical channels. According to the scanning method, N channels may be scanned simultaneously, wherein the N channels are selected from the horizontal channel group or the vertical channel group, the N channels are not adjacent to each other, N is a positive integer, and N is less than a channel amount of the selected channel group. Thereby, the scanning speed and the sensing accuracy of the touch panel using the scanning method are enhanced.

Scanning method of a touch panel

A control apparatus for controlling a panel module including a touch panel and a display panel is provided. The control apparatus includes: a display driver, coupled to the display panel, for controlling display operations of the display panel according to a plurality of driving signals; and a touch controller, coupled to the touch panel and the display driver, for referring to a level transition of at least one driving signal of the driving signals to generate a touch control signal corresponding to a touch sensing output generated by the touch panel.
