Abstract
A processing system includes a timing controller and source driver circuitry. The timing controller is configured to stop scanning of a plurality of gate lines of a display panel in response to a detection of a communication failure between the processing system and a controller. The source driver circuitry is configured to update a plurality of display elements of the display panel to cause a black display in response to expiration of a time limit after the detection of the communication failure. The timing controller may be further configured to resume the scanning of the plurality of gate lines in response to the expiration of the time limit.
