Divider 120 can receive 24 in response to external clock MIPI CLK and show data (or, pixel data), to be below N(by the demonstration data interlacing of input, can be called " N interweaves ").Here, to interweave can be wherein that adjacent demonstration data are stored in the physical region that N is different so that from the technology of many local accesses to N.Interleaving technology is disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2011/0157200, and its open integral body is by reference incorporated into this.
Divider 120 can be not limited to receive 24 and show data.Divider 120 can be configured to receive M position and show data (M is greater than 2 integer).In an exemplary embodiment, divider 120 can be realized by cache memory or direct memory access (DMA) (DMA).
Divider 120 can use first frequency fa to receive demonstration data, and the demonstration data that can use second frequency fb output to interweave.Here, first frequency fa can be the frequency of external clock MIPI CLK, and second frequency fb can be equal to or higher than the frequency f a/N by first frequency fa is obtained divided by N.
24 demonstration data that each in FIFO storer 141 to 14N can interweave according to external clock MIPI CLK storage.Each in FIFO storer 141 to 14N can show data (or, pixel data) in response to 24 of internal clocking OSC CLK outputs.Here, the frequency of internal clocking OSC CLK can be lower than the frequency of external clock MIPI CLK.Therefore, each in FIFO storer 141 to 14N can be used as asynchronous FIFO memory.
The demonstration data that each in FIFO storer 141 to 14N can be used second frequency fb storage to interweave, and the demonstration data of using the 3rd frequency f c output to store.Here, the 3rd frequency f c can be lower than first frequency fa and higher than second frequency fb.In other words, can be faster than the speed that demonstration data is write to FIFO storer 141 to 14N from the speed of FIFO storer 141 to 14N reading displayed data.This can meet a condition: before the shown data of FIFO storer 141 to 14N are filled up, the demonstration data of storing are drawn out of from FIFO storer 141 to 14N.
In an exemplary embodiment, each in FIFO storer 141 to 14N can be passed through trigger, static RAM (SRAM) or dual-port SRAM realization.

The in the situation that of general figures storer, arbitration circuit can be used for carrying out write operation and scan operation in particular address, or is used for carrying out the write/scanning/read operation of routine when scan command and read command are inputted simultaneously.Because arbitration circuit write clock and scan clock is limited, the highest frequency of general figures storer may be limited by arbitration circuit.Because each general figures storer comprises himself arbitration circuit, so the size of general figures storer may increase.In addition, in order to drive the super-resolution display of widescreen XGA (Extended Graphics Array) (WXGA) type, every frame can provide 4M bit or larger demonstration data (for example, 1Gbps/ passage) to DDI.Yet general figures storer can not use its highest operating frequency to process and process 4M bit or larger demonstration data in every frame.
On the other hand, as shown in Figure 6, according to the present invention, the DDI100(of the one exemplary embodiment of design is with reference to figure 5) can remove for showing the read operation of data.For example, the data that the DDI100 of the one exemplary embodiment of design can change by scan operation rather than read operation in response to the read request transmission of external host according to the present invention.The DDI100 of the one exemplary embodiment of conceiving according to the present invention also can remove the highest operating frequency of restriction and affect the arbitration circuit of the size of graphic memory.
As shown in Figure 5, according to the present invention, the DDI100 of one exemplary embodiment of design can be configured to come drive pattern storer 161 to arrive 16N with the unified internal clocking OSC CLK that is used as writing clock and scan clock.Thereby the high speed that graphic memory 161 to 16N can be used the highest operating frequency to process and input in order to drive super-resolution display shows data.
Fig. 7 is the figure that the data time sequence when carrying out the interweaving of one exemplary embodiment of the design according to the present invention is shown.With reference to figure 7, according to 4 passage MIPI(of the high-speed serial interface in the super-resolution display as WXGA type (corresponding to full HD (HD) type of display) for example show, at the 1Gbps of 125MHz) the sequential of input data.8 interleaving technologies can be used to the frequency condition that meets input data.In other words, as shown in Figure 7, externally six of clock MIPI CLK cycles during can to divider 120 provide eight pixel datas (for example, PD[47:24] and PD[23:0] pixel data 1-8).Here, a pixel data can be formed by 24 bit data.
Divider 120 externally clock MIPI CLK six cycles during interweave and will be respectively stored in eight pixel datas in eight FIFO storeies 141 to 148.Each in FIFO storer 141 to 148 can during the one-period of internal clocking OSC CLK, output be stored pixel data.In other words, the writing rate fb of each in FIFO storer 141 to 148 can be about 48ns.The read rate fc of each in FIFO storer 141 to 148 can be faster than writing rate fb.For example, the read rate of each in FIFO storer 141 to 148 can be about 30ns.Here, the read rate fc of each in FIFO storer 141 to 148 can be graphic memory 161 to 16N(with reference to figure 5) in each writing rate.
According to the present invention, the DDI100(of the one exemplary embodiment of design is with reference to figure 5) can eliminate the arbitration circuit that traditional graphic memory is used with FIFO storer 141 to 148.In the one exemplary embodiment of the present invention's design, each in graphic memory 161 to 16N can be used the internal clocking OSC CLK storage pixel data that generate from the oscillator of DDI100, and without using external clock MIPICLK.In other words, each in graphic memory 161 to 16N can operate in response to internal clocking OSCCLK rather than for example, for the clock of input/output operations (, write operation and scan operation).
