Description

Display device and control method thereof
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and in particular, to a display device and a control method thereof.
Background
In the current display driving chip, due to the dynamic adjustment requirement for the quality, brightness, power supply and the like of the display image, each image processor existing inside the display driver can adjust the quality, brightness and the like of the display image one by one. For example, the Brightness is controlled by a Brightness control Module (BC), and a Dynamic Power Management Module (DPM) manages Power.
The display driving is divided into two parts of image writing and image displaying. In most of the screen display applications, there is a process of displaying a still screen, an Application Processor (Application Processor)AP) has a low frequency of updating the contents of the video frames in the storage means (i.e. a low image writing frequency). However, in order to prevent the flicker visible to the human eye, the image display needs to be maintained at a high frequency.
The rate at which one image is changed to another image, or updated to another image, on the display panel is referred to as the refresh rate. In order to improve the display quality, a technology of increasing the refresh rate is usually adopted, and the conventional panel refresh rate is 60Hz (i.e. 60fps), which means that the screen is refreshed 60 times per second. In the prior art, the refresh rate is increased from "60 Hz" to "120 Hz (120 fps)", even to "240 Hz (240 fps)". Under the state of high refresh rate, when playing videos, games, pictures and the like for display, the dynamic blurring can be effectively reduced, the display can be smoother, and the visual experience of a user is greatly improved. The current image processors generally process images based on displayed images, which means that even if the driving chip always displays the same image (displays a static picture), the display panel still continuously performs refresh operations, and each image processor is frequently called. In the case of displaying a still picture, the data of each frame of picture is the same, and the data called by the image processor is also the same, and such calling is not practical, but consumes a large amount of power, resulting in unnecessary power loss. The higher the refresh rate, the more severe this unnecessary loss of power consumption.

In step S604, the second processor group is in a refresh operation state, and adjusts the display image.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the display driving is divided into two parts, image writing and image displaying. The first processor is an Application Processor (AP) for writing video frame content to the storage device. When the displayed picture does not need to be changed, the application processor does not write the image, and the content of the video frame in the storage device does not change; when the displayed picture needs to be changed, the application processor writes the image and changes the content of the video frame in the storage device. The refresh signal is generated when the content of the video frame changes. The monitoring device monitors the refreshing signal, and when the refreshing signal is monitored, the second processor group (image processor group) is controlled to be in a refreshing working state, and the displayed image is adjusted; if the refresh signal is not monitored, the monitoring continues.
In one embodiment of the invention, the monitoring is dynamic monitoring, i.e. continuously monitoring whether the content of the video frames in the storage means changes.

In one embodiment of the invention, the second processor group is an image processor group and the operating states include a refresh operating state and a non-refresh operating state. When the image processor group is in a refreshing working state, all image processors in the image processor group are in full enablement; when the image processor group does not refresh the working state, different image processors in the image processor group are respectively in a fully enabled state, a partially enabled state or a fully closed state. The image processor in the partially enabled state turns off the computation function for different image feature parameters. In the case of no change in the displayed image, the invocation of some image processors is not necessary, in which case such image processors are completely switched off.
In the above embodiment, when the image processor group is in the non-refresh operating state, a part of the image processors are completely turned off, compared with when the image processor group is in the refresh operating state; part of the image processor is partially enabled and partially disabled. When the image processor group is in a non-refreshing working state, the calling of the image processor is reduced, and the power consumption in the display process is reduced.
In one embodiment of the invention, a determination is made continuously whether the content of the video frames has changed. If the content of the video frame is not changed, controlling the second processor group to keep a non-refreshing working state, and returning to the judging process again to wait for the next judgment on whether the content of the video frame is changed; if the content of the video frame is judged to be changed, a refresh signal is generated. According to the refresh signal, the second processor group is controlled to refresh the working state for a certain time (the time is a settable parameter, and can be set to be time with different lengths according to the actual situation, and the time is set to be the size of the preset value S), and then the second processor group is made to be in the non-refresh working state. After controlling the second processor group to be in the refresh operation state, first, 1 is added to the count value i of the counting unit under the control of the time signal (the initial value of the count value is set to 0, i is 0). And judging the count value i, and judging whether the count value i is greater than or equal to a preset value S. If the counting value i is judged to be larger than or equal to the preset value S, the time that the second processor group is in the refreshing working state is considered to reach the set time, and then the working state of the second processor group is changed into the non-refreshing working state; if the counting value i is smaller than the preset value S, the time that the second processor group is in the refreshing working state is not considered to reach the set time, the process returns to the counting value i accumulation process again, and the counting value i of the counting device is added by 1 under the control of the time signal. And when the count value i is greater than or equal to the preset value S, and the time that the second processor group is in the refreshing working state reaches the set time, controlling the second processor group to be in the non-refreshing state, resetting the count value i of the counting device, returning to the judging process of whether the content of the video frame changes again, and waiting for the next judgment of whether the content of the video frame changes.
In an embodiment of the present invention, when the content of the video frame is determined to change, the second processor group is controlled to be in the refresh operation state, and after a certain number of frames are processed, the second processor group is automatically controlled to be in the refresh operation state. And under the condition that the second processor group is in a refreshing working state, monitoring and counting the number of frames processed by the second processor group. When the number of frames processed by the second processor group is less than the set number of frames, the second processor group maintains the refresh operation state. If the video frame content in the storage device is monitored to be changed during the period that the frame number processed by the second processor group is less than the set frame number, the counted processing frame number in the processing period is cleared, and the counting is started from 0 (namely, the refresh operation state of the second processor can be considered to be restarted). And when the frame number processed by the second processor group reaches the set frame number and the updating of the storage device is not monitored in the period, controlling the second processor group to be in a non-refreshing working state.
