Abstract
Methods and systems are described for enabling display system power saving during the operation of display devices. An integrated circuit package includes input interface circuitry configured to receive an audio-video data stream having a video signal and timing information and timing extraction circuitry that can identify blanking patterns for the video signal. The package includes timing control circuitry configured to implement a power saving process during the blanking periods of the video signal. The invention further includes methods that support the operation of power saving processes.
