Abstract
A novel display system includes a host and a display. In a particular embodiment the host includes a data scaler and a dual frame buffer. Frames of image data are down-scaled before being transferred to the display, and is up-scaled while being loaded into the frame buffer or the display. The down-scaled frames of image data include less data than the frames of image data. In another embodiment, the process of loading the image data into the display begins before an entire frame of data is loaded into the frame buffer. Increasingly sized portions of the image data, each corresponding to a different color field, are asserted on the display and displayed one at a time. The portions of the frame that were not previously displayed are displayed along with the initial portions of a subsequent frame.
