In one embodiment, graphics processor 112 displays signal to display 120 by the transmission of display interface 113 one, and Can control the display signal driving voltage amplitude position rank (swing level) and preposition processing position rank (pre emphasis Level), allow the sequence controller 121 of display 120 that can show correctly display picture on display panel 122 whereby.
In another embodiment, graphics processor 112 also can be aobvious to control using the panel driving technology that manufacturer has developed Show the driving voltage of driving signal, such as can be adjusted using the iBoost technology of Intel.
Sequence controller 121 receives the display drive signals from main control end 110 by coffret 124, and carries out phase The voltage compensation processing answered, then according to display drive signals after compensation deals to control the display panel 122 displays corresponding Picture.
In one embodiment, before the factory of main control end 110, come using the testing tool (Tool kit) of a VESA standard Measure the amplitude position rank and preposition processing position rank of the display drive signals that it is exported.For example, the position usually measured is In the input terminal of the coffret 124 at display end, imply that the display drive signals exported from main control end 110 by eDP When data line 114 reaches display end, it can guarantee the amplitude position rank of display drive signals and preposition processing position rank be to meet It is set by manufacturer detected by BIOS 115.However, display manufactured by each panel vendor is before factory.
Fig. 2A is the schematic diagram for the eye figure for showing that embedded display interface signals are not extruded.The horizontal axis of eye figure is the time, The longitudinal axis is then voltage, and sequence controller 121 is to judge that the display drive signals are to belong to patrol according to set amplitude position rank Collect 1 or logical zero.When set amplitude position rank is bigger, sequence controller 121 more easily determines the display drive signals Logic level, however, main control end 110 will also spend more power consumption to generate the display driving letter with large magnitude position rank Number.In general, under the premise of the logic level of 121 energy accurate judgement display drive signals of sequence controller, amplitude position rank Smaller better, system can reduce more power consumptions.
As shown in Figure 2 A, when the eye figure of embedded display interface signals is not extruded, the intermediate region 210 in eye figure can Form a complete polygon.At this point, sequence controller 121 can accurately judge each pixel in display picture (pixel) level (for example, 0 or 1) of each bit, shown picture will not generate mistake on display panel 122 Hua Ping or flash-point phenomenon.
Fig. 2 B is the schematic diagram for the eye figure for showing that embedded display interface signals are extruded.As shown in Figure 2 B, when embedded When the eye figure of display interface signals is extruded, the intermediate region 220 in eye figure can not form a complete polygon.At this point, It can when level (for example, 0 or 1) of each bit of each pixel (pixel) of the sequence controller 121 in judgement display picture The case where capable of generating misjudgment, this pixel value that will cause certain pixels generate mistake, and user may also perceive aobvious Show the phenomenon that picture generates mistake or flash-point.
In one embodiment, when computer system 100 is switched on, BIOS 115 can first read group of pictures and set (GOP Setting), and by data line 114 and coffret 113 by display 120 its extension of displaying identified data is read (extended display identification data, EDID) is to obtain manufacturer and its production of display panel 122 Product number (product number), and can confirm the associated drives setup parameter of display panel 122, e.g. amplitude position rank and Preposition processing position rank.
Then, sequence controller 121 can confirm the signal quality of the display drive signals from main control end 110, and carry out Automatic training (auto training).For example, sequence controller 121 understands the first phase according to acquired display panel 122 Driving setup parameter is closed to be set, after the completion of setting, can normal control display panel 122 shown.When in work When making state, sequence controller 121 also can constantly confirm whether received display drive signals are abnormal.
Whenever judging that received display drive signals are abnormal, error count is miscalculated in 121 accounting of sequence controller Number numerical value (such as the buffer that can be stored in sequence controller 121), and added 1.When error count numerical value is accumulate to When one predetermined threshold, sequence controller 121, which then judges display picture, may generate unexpected abnormal conditions.At this point, Error count numerical value calculated can be then reported to main control end 110 by sequence controller 121.
The situation that display drive signals generate mistake may be that amplitude position rank is insufficient or preposition processing position rank is insufficient, cause The case where intermediate region in eye figure generates extruding in turn results in sequence controller 121 in the logic electricity for the bit for judging pixel Mistake can usually be generated.As long as sequence controller 121 has detected display drive signals, an error has occurred, every time can be by mistake Count value adds 1.In some embodiments, error count numerical value can be sent out for the mistake accumulated after the booting of computer system 100 Raw number.In further embodiments, error count numerical value can be periodically to calculate the mistake accumulated within during one Frequency.
