Description
本發明係有關電源管理(power management),特別是關於一種電腦液晶顯示器之低功率待機(standby)電路及其方法。The present invention relates to power management, and more particularly to a low power standby circuit and method for a computer liquid crystal display.
數位視訊界面(Digital Visual Interface,DVI)係由數位顯示工作組(Digital Display Working Group,DDWG)所發展的一種視訊界面標準,用以增強數位顯示裝置(例如電腦液晶顯示器)的視訊效能。根據此DVI標準,像素的亮度係以未壓縮之二位元資料串流(stream)形式傳送至顯示器。The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video interface standard developed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) to enhance the video performance of digital display devices such as computer LCDs. According to this DVI standard, the brightness of a pixel is transmitted to the display as an uncompressed binary data stream.
高解析度多媒體界面(High-Definition Multimedia Interface,HDMI)則是另一種較新的視訊界面標準,也是以未壓縮之二位元資料串流(stream)形式傳送至顯示裝置(例如電腦液晶顯示器及數位電視)。由於DVI信號電性上相容於HDMI信號,因此HDMI可以回溯相容至DVI。High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is another newer video interface standard that is also transmitted to display devices (such as computer LCDs) in uncompressed binary data streams. Digital TV). Since the DVI signal is electrically compatible with the HDMI signal, HDMI can be backward compatible to DVI.
近年來可攜式或電池供電之電子裝置的快速成長,使得裝置操作時間的增長成為迫切的需求。但是,由於電池續航力的成長緩不濟急,因此,降低功率消耗便成為達到該需求的一種替代可行方案。對於下一世代或特定之節能規範,當液晶顯示器於待機(standby)時,其顯示控制積體電路的最大功率消耗可能必須小至0.5瓦(W)。根據這樣的規範,顯示裝置內的顯示控制器最多僅能分配到20毫安(mA)的電流。通常,此20毫安的一大部分,甚至一半,可能都浪費掉了。In recent years, the rapid growth of portable or battery-powered electronic devices has made the growth of device operation time an urgent need. However, as the growth of battery life is slow, reducing power consumption is an alternative to achieving this demand. For next generation or specific energy efficiency specifications, the maximum power consumption of the display control integrated circuit may have to be as small as 0.5 watts (W) when the liquid crystal display is in standby. According to such specifications, the display controller within the display device can only dispense up to 20 milliamps (mA) of current. Usually, a large part, or even half, of this 20 mAh may be wasted.
鑑於傳統顯示控制器無法有效節省功率以符合現代的節能規範,因此亟需提出一種低功率待機的機制,用以實質地節省功率消耗。In view of the fact that conventional display controllers cannot effectively save power to comply with modern energy-saving regulations, there is a need to propose a low-power standby mechanism to substantially save power consumption.
鑑於上述,本發明的目的之一為提出一種低功率待機電路及其方法,使得顯示控制器及顯示裝置於待機模式時,得以節省功率消耗。In view of the above, one of the objects of the present invention is to provide a low power standby circuit and method thereof that enable power consumption to be saved when the display controller and display device are in the standby mode.
根據本發明實施例,使用一偵測器來偵測脈波通道之正路徑的第一終端電阻之壓降,以及負路徑的第二終端電阻之壓降。當偵測到壓降時,開關控制器即根據偵測器之輸出以控制正路徑的正開關及負路徑的負開關,用以將偵測到壓降之正或負開關予以啟斷(open),藉此得以在顯示裝置待機模式下節省功率消耗。According to an embodiment of the invention, a detector is used to detect the voltage drop of the first terminating resistor of the positive path of the pulse channel and the voltage drop of the second terminating resistor of the negative path. When a voltage drop is detected, the switch controller controls the positive switch of the positive path and the negative switch of the negative path according to the output of the detector to open or close the positive or negative switch that detects the voltage drop (open) ), thereby saving power consumption in the display device standby mode.
第一圖顯示數位視訊界面(Digital Visual Interface,DVI)的架構。雖然此處以DVI標準來作說明,然而其他(之前或未來的)視訊標準也可以適用於本發明。第一圖所示的DVI架構包含一傳送器(transmitter,Tx)10,用以將接收自圖形控制器(graphics controller)12的像素資料/控制信號經由鏈結(link)16而傳送至一接收器(receiver,Rx)14。於圖式中,鏈結16包含(但不限定)六個資料/控制通道(通道0至通道5)及一個時脈通道。接著,接收器14將所接收的像素資料/控制信號送至顯示裝置(例如電腦液晶顯示器)的顯示控制器(例如液晶控制積體電路)18。在本發明中,顯示裝置係設置於(但不限定為)可攜式或電池供電之有限電源電子裝置內。根據DVI標準,像素資料係以傳輸最小化差動信號(transition minimized differential signaling,TMDS)格式來傳送,其將8位元資料轉換為10位元的TMDS信號。每一通道以一絞線對(twist pair)來實施,用以承載資料、控制信號或脈波信號。The first figure shows the architecture of the Digital Visual Interface (DVI). Although illustrated herein by the DVI standard, other (previous or future) video standards are also applicable to the present invention. The DVI architecture shown in the first figure includes a transmitter (Tx) 10 for transmitting pixel data/control signals received from a graphics controller 12 via a link 16 to a receiver. Receiver (Rx) 14. In the drawings, link 16 includes, but is not limited to, six data/control channels (channel 0 to channel 5) and one clock channel. Next, the receiver 14 sends the received pixel data/control signal to a display controller (eg, liquid crystal control integrated circuit) 18 of a display device (eg, a computer liquid crystal display). In the present invention, the display device is disposed within, but not limited to, a portable or battery powered limited power electronics. According to the DVI standard, pixel data is transmitted in a transition minimized differential signaling (TMDS) format, which converts 8-bit data into a 10-bit TMDS signal. Each channel is implemented as a twist pair to carry data, control signals, or pulse signals.
第二圖顯示第一圖的接收器(Rx)14之詳細功能方塊圖。於圖式中,顯示了三個資料通道CH0、CH1、CH2(亦即,RX0+/RX0-、RX1+/RX1-、RX2+/RX2-)及一個脈波通道(RXC+/RXC-)。壓控電阻(voltage-controlled resistor,VCR)141的電阻值(例如50歐姆(Ω))可經由控制而維持於固定值。鎖相迴路(PLL)142根據接收之脈波信號以產生鎖住脈波信號。方塊144則使用此鎖住脈波信號以回復每一通道的資料,使得每一資料信號之相位可以被鎖住。接下來,方塊146根據遮沒期(blanking period)的同步信號(SYNC)將每一方塊144的資料串流進行同步。最後,資料串流由解碼器148予以解碼,用以將10位元之TMDS信號轉變回8位元資料,以顯示於顯示裝置上。於本發明的一些實施例中,上述的方塊會在待機(standby)模式時關閉,以節省功率消耗。The second figure shows a detailed functional block diagram of the receiver (Rx) 14 of the first figure. In the figure, three data channels CH0, CH1, CH2 (ie, RX0+/RX0-, RX1+/RX1-, RX2+/RX2-) and one pulse channel (RXC+/RXC-) are shown. The resistance value of the voltage-controlled resistor (VCR) 141 (for example, 50 ohms (Ω)) can be maintained at a fixed value via control. A phase locked loop (PLL) 142 generates a lock pulse signal based on the received pulse wave signal. Block 144 uses this lock pulse signal to recover the data for each channel so that the phase of each data signal can be locked. Next, block 146 synchronizes the data stream for each block 144 based on the synchronization signal (SYNC) of the blanking period. Finally, the data stream is decoded by decoder 148 for converting the 10-bit TMDS signal back to the 8-bit data for display on the display device. In some embodiments of the invention, the above blocks may be turned off in a standby mode to save power consumption.
第三A圖顯示接收器(Rx)14端的TMDS差動對(differential pair),特別是脈波對。傳送器(Tx)10藉由一插座(receptacle)30傳送差動信號至接收器(Rx)14。其中,插座30及接收器(Rx)14通常設置於同一個印刷電路板32上。參考電壓(或供應電壓)AVcc用以設定差動電壓之高電壓。接收器(Rx)14端的終端電阻(termination resistor)RT (例如第二圖之壓控電阻(VCR)141)係用以和鏈結16的絞線對(twist pair)之阻抗作匹配。差動信號輸入至差動放大器34,其通常作為脈波檢測放大器(或運算放大器(OP))之用。當傳送器(Tx)10處於主動模式時,其藉由接收器(Rx)14端的脈波通道(RXC+及RXC-)而傳送脈波信號,因此差動放大器34的正輸入端(In+)或負輸入端(In-)會有週期性的電壓變化,變化於高電壓(例如3.3伏(V))與低電壓(例如0伏)之間。Figure 3A shows the TMDS differential pair at the receiver (Rx) 14 end, especially the pulse pair. The transmitter (Tx) 10 transmits a differential signal to the receiver (Rx) 14 via a receptacle 30. The socket 30 and the receiver (Rx) 14 are usually disposed on the same printed circuit board 32. The reference voltage (or supply voltage) AVcc is used to set the high voltage of the differential voltage. A termination resistor R T at the receiver (Rx) 14 end (e.g., a voltage controlled resistor (VCR) 141 of the second figure) is used to match the impedance of the twist pair of the link 16. The differential signal is input to a differential amplifier 34, which is typically used as a pulse wave detection amplifier (or operational amplifier (OP)). When the transmitter (Tx) 10 is in the active mode, it transmits the pulse signal through the pulse channel (RXC+ and RXC-) at the receiver (Rx) terminal 14, so that the positive input terminal (In+) of the differential amplifier 34 or The negative input (In-) has a periodic voltage change that varies between a high voltage (eg, 3.3 volts (V)) and a low voltage (eg, 0 volts).
第三B圖例示當顯示裝置處於待機模式時的接收器(Rx)14脈波對。如圖所示,當處於待機模式時,正輸入端(In+)的電壓為3.3伏,因此沒有電流通過路徑160;負輸入端(In-)的電壓為2.8伏,因此有10毫安電流通過另一路徑162而流至傳送器(Tx)10。亦即,RXC+=0mA,RXC-=10mA。由此可知,顯示裝置即使處於待機模式且沒有接收到任何脈波時,其仍然在消耗著功率。對於下一世代或特定之節能規範,當液晶顯示器於待機時,其最大功率消耗可能必須小至0.5瓦。根據這樣的規範,顯示控制器18(第一圖)最多僅能分配到20毫安的電流。根據第三B圖,此20毫安的一半流出接收器(Rx)14而被浪費掉了。The third B diagram illustrates the receiver (Rx) 14 pulse wave pair when the display device is in the standby mode. As shown, when in standby mode, the positive input (In+) voltage is 3.3 volts, so no current flows through path 160; the negative input (In-) voltage is 2.8 volts, so 10 mA current is passed Another path 162 flows to the transmitter (Tx) 10. That is, RXC+ = 0 mA, RXC - = 10 mA. It can be seen from this that the display device consumes power even when it is in the standby mode and does not receive any pulse wave. For the next generation or specific energy efficiency specifications, the maximum power consumption of the LCD display may be as small as 0.5 watts when it is in standby. According to such specifications, display controller 18 (first map) can only dispense up to 20 milliamps of current. According to the third B picture, half of this 20 mA out of the receiver (Rx) 14 is wasted.
第三C圖例示當顯示裝置處於待機模式時的另一種接收器(Rx)14脈波對。如圖所示,當處於待機模式時,正輸入端(In+)的電壓為2.8伏,因此有10毫安電流通過路徑160而流至傳送器(Tx)10;負輸入端(In-)的電壓為3.3伏,因此沒有電流通過路徑162。亦即,RXC+=10mA,RXC-=0mA。和第三B圖比較,第三C圖的10毫安電流係通過路徑160而非第三B圖之路徑162。不管是第三B圖或第三C圖,都有電流流出接收器(Rx)14而被浪費掉了。The third C diagram illustrates another receiver (Rx) 14 pulse pair when the display device is in the standby mode. As shown, when in standby mode, the positive input (In+) voltage is 2.8 volts, so 10 mA current flows through path 160 to transmitter (Tx) 10; negative input (In-) The voltage is 3.3 volts, so no current flows through path 162. That is, RXC+=10 mA, RXC-=0 mA. Compared to the third B-picture, the 10 mA current of the third C-picture passes through the path 160 instead of the path 162 of the third B-picture. Whether it is the third B picture or the third C picture, current flows out of the receiver (Rx) 14 and is wasted.
第三D圖例示當顯示裝置處於待機模式時的又一種接收器(Rx)14脈波對。如圖所示,當處於待機模式時,正輸入端(In+)的電壓為3.3伏,因此沒有電流通過路徑160;負輸入端(In-)的電壓也是3.3伏,因此也沒有電流通過路徑162。亦即,RXC+=0mA,RXC-=0mA。和第三B圖、第三C圖比較,第三D圖的路徑160和路徑162都沒有電流通過。The third D diagram illustrates yet another receiver (Rx) 14 pulse pair when the display device is in the standby mode. As shown, when in standby mode, the voltage at the positive input (In+) is 3.3 volts, so no current flows through path 160; the voltage at the negative input (In-) is also 3.3 volts, so there is no current through path 162. . That is, RXC+=0 mA, RXC-=0 mA. Compared with the third B diagram and the third C diagram, neither the path 160 nor the path 162 of the third D diagram passes current.
上述第三B圖至第三D圖所示待機模式的三種情形概述於以下的表一。The three cases of the standby mode shown in the above third B to third D are summarized in Table 1 below.
第四圖顯示本發明實施例之低功率待機電路,第五圖則顯示本發明實施例之低功率待機方法的流程圖。如前所述,當傳送器(Tx)10處於主動(active)模式時,其藉由接收器(Rx)14端的脈波通道(RXC+及RXC-)而傳送脈波信號,因此差動放大器34的正輸入端(In+)或負輸入端(In-)會有週期性的電壓變化,變化於高電壓(例如3.3伏)與低電壓(例如0伏)之間。脈波信號的週期性變化可根據正輸入端(In+)和負輸入端(In-)的電壓,由偵測器(例如圖示之電壓比較器40)加以偵測(步驟50)。在另一實施例中,電壓比較器40則是根據端點A及B的電壓來進行偵測。偵測器40的輸出401控制一多工器(MUX)42,使得正輸入端(In+)電壓或負輸入端(In-)電壓得以通過而饋至脈波檢測放大器(或運算放大器(OP))44(例如第三A圖中的差動放大器34)。脈波檢測放大器44的輸出可以再饋至一喚醒(wake up)產生器45,當偵測到脈波信號時,喚醒產生器45會輸出喚醒信號。The fourth figure shows the low power standby circuit of the embodiment of the present invention, and the fifth figure shows the flow chart of the low power standby method of the embodiment of the present invention. As described above, when the transmitter (Tx) 10 is in the active mode, it transmits the pulse wave signal through the pulse channel (RXC+ and RXC-) at the receiver (Rx) terminal 14, and thus the differential amplifier 34 The positive input (In+) or negative input (In-) has a periodic voltage change that varies between a high voltage (eg, 3.3 volts) and a low voltage (eg, 0 volts). The periodic variation of the pulse signal can be detected by a detector (such as the illustrated voltage comparator 40) based on the voltage at the positive input (In+) and the negative input (In-) (step 50). In another embodiment, voltage comparator 40 is detected based on the voltages of terminals A and B. The output 401 of the detector 40 controls a multiplexer (MUX) 42 such that the positive input (In+) voltage or the negative input (In-) voltage is passed to the pulse-detection amplifier (or operational amplifier (OP)). 44 (for example, the differential amplifier 34 in the third A diagram). The output of the pulse wave sense amplifier 44 can be fed back to a wake up generator 45. When the pulse wave signal is detected, the wake-up generator 45 outputs a wake-up signal.
當傳送器(Tx)10處於非主動(inactive)模式時,其不再藉由接收器(Rx)14端的脈波通道(RXC+及RXC-)而傳送脈波信號,因此偵測器40於正輸入端(In+)或負輸入端(In-)即偵測不到週期性的電壓變化,表示正處於待機模式中。待機模式的三種情形分別討論如下。When the transmitter (Tx) 10 is in the inactive mode, it no longer transmits the pulse signal through the pulse channel (RXC+ and RXC-) at the receiver (Rx) 14 end, so the detector 40 is positive. The input (In+) or negative input (In-) detects no periodic voltage change, indicating that it is in standby mode. The three scenarios of standby mode are discussed below.
當偵測器40偵測到正輸入端(In+)電壓為3.3伏且負輸入端(In-)電壓為2.8伏時,偵測器40的輸出402即控制一開關控制器46以閉合(close)第一開關SW_In+且啟斷(open)第二開關SW_In-(步驟51)。前述偵測器40的輸出401及402可以是相同或者相異的信號。在本實施例中,開關控制器46可以使用多工器來實施。藉此,即可避免原本流經路徑162的10毫安電流,因而實質地節省功率消耗。因此,偵測器40可藉由路徑160以偵測傳送器(Tx)10的主動/非主動狀態,且正輸入端(In+)的信號可以經由多工器42而饋至脈波檢測放大器44。When the detector 40 detects that the positive input (In+) voltage is 3.3 volts and the negative input (In-) voltage is 2.8 volts, the output 402 of the detector 40 controls a switch controller 46 to close (close) The first switch SW_In+ and the second switch SW_In- is turned on (step 51). The outputs 401 and 402 of the aforementioned detector 40 may be the same or different signals. In the present embodiment, the switch controller 46 can be implemented using a multiplexer. Thereby, the current of 10 mA originally flowing through the path 162 can be avoided, thereby substantially saving power consumption. Therefore, the detector 40 can detect the active/inactive state of the transmitter (Tx) 10 through the path 160, and the signal of the positive input terminal (In+) can be fed to the pulse wave detecting amplifier 44 via the multiplexer 42. .
當偵測器40偵測到正輸入端(In+)電壓為2.8伏且負輸入端(In-)電壓為3.3伏時,偵測器40的輸出402即控制開關控制器46以啟斷(open)第一開關SW_In+且閉合(close)第二開關SW_In-(步驟52)。藉此,即可避免原本流經路徑160的10毫安電流,因而實質地節省功率消耗。因此,偵測器40可藉由路徑162以偵測傳送器(Tx)10的主動/非主動狀態,且負輸入端(In-)的信號可以經由多工器42而饋至脈波檢測放大器44。When the detector 40 detects that the positive input (In+) voltage is 2.8 volts and the negative input (In-) voltage is 3.3 volts, the output 402 of the detector 40 controls the switch controller 46 to open (open) The first switch SW_In+ and closes the second switch SW_In- (step 52). Thereby, the current of 10 mA originally flowing through the path 160 can be avoided, thereby substantially saving power consumption. Therefore, the detector 40 can detect the active/inactive state of the transmitter (Tx) 10 through the path 162, and the signal of the negative input terminal (In-) can be fed to the pulse wave detecting amplifier via the multiplexer 42. 44.
當偵測器40偵測到正輸入端(In+)及負輸入端(In-)電壓均為3.3伏時,偵測器40的輸出402即控制開關控制器46以啟斷(open)第一開關SW_In+、第二開關SW_In-其中之一,且閉合(close)另一開關(步驟53)。因此,偵測器40可藉由路徑160/162之一以偵測傳送器(Tx)10的主動/非主動狀態,且正輸入端(In+)或負輸入端(In-)的信號可以經由多工器42而饋至脈波檢測放大器44。When the detector 40 detects that both the positive input (In+) and the negative input (In-) voltages are 3.3 volts, the output 402 of the detector 40 controls the switch controller 46 to open the first One of the switch SW_In+, the second switch SW_In-, and another switch is closed (step 53). Therefore, the detector 40 can detect the active/inactive state of the transmitter (Tx) 10 by one of the paths 160/162, and the signal of the positive input (In+) or the negative input (In-) can be The multiplexer 42 is fed to the pulse wave detecting amplifier 44.
第一開關SW_In+或第二開關SW_In-將保持啟斷(open)狀態,直到正輸入端(In+)或負輸入端(In-)偵測到週期性電壓變化,表示傳送器(Tx)10進入主動狀態。此時,偵測器40將閉合(close)第一開關SW_In+及第二開關SW_In-(步驟54),且喚醒產生器45會產生喚醒信號以啟動(activate)接收器(Rx)14(步驟55)。The first switch SW_In+ or the second switch SW_In- will remain in an open state until a positive voltage change is detected at the positive input (In+) or negative input (In-), indicating that the transmitter (Tx) 10 enters Active state. At this time, the detector 40 will close the first switch SW_In+ and the second switch SW_In- (step 54), and the wake-up generator 45 will generate a wake-up signal to activate the receiver (Rx) 14 (step 55). ).
根據本發明實施例,於待機模式下,絞線對的其中一個脈波路徑會被中斷(disconnect),因而實質地節省功率消耗;而另一路徑則繼續用於檢測脈波信號的存在。當檢測到脈波信號時,該中斷路徑則予以回復。According to an embodiment of the invention, in the standby mode, one of the pulse paths of the twisted pair is disconnected, thereby substantially saving power consumption; while the other path continues to detect the presence of the pulse signal. When the pulse signal is detected, the interrupt path is restored.
以上所述僅為本發明之較佳實施例而已,並非用以限定本發明之申請專利範圍;凡其它未脫離發明所揭示之精神下所完成之等效改變或修飾,均應包含在下述之申請專利範圍內。The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention; all other equivalent changes or modifications which are not departing from the spirit of the invention should be included in the following Within the scope of the patent application.
