For example, at least one (one) of a, b, or c may represent: a, b, c, a-b, a-c, b-c, or a-b-c, wherein a, b, c may be single or plural. In addition, in order to facilitate the clear description of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, the words "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish the same item or similar items having substantially the same function and effect. It will be appreciated by those of skill in the art that the words "first," "second," and the like do not limit the amount and order of execution, and that the words "first," "second," and the like do not necessarily differ.

Meanwhile, in the embodiments of the present application, words such as "exemplary" or "such as" are used to mean serving as examples, illustrations or explanations. Any embodiment or design described herein as "exemplary" or "e.g." in an embodiment should not be taken as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "such as" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete fashion that may be readily understood.

At present, after an AOD function of the electronic device is started, the electronic device can continuously display preset screen-off information through some areas in a screen-off state. For example, when the AOD function is applied to an electronic device having a touch screen, a user may light a partial area of the touch screen by touching or setting and display time, date, notification type information, picture, and the like in the area. Taking an electronic device as an example of a mobile phone, as shown in fig. 1, when the mobile phone starts a screen-off display function, a preset picture is displayed above a mobile phone screen of a user, the current date and time are displayed below the picture, and an emergency call key, health monitoring and current electric quantity information are displayed at the lowest part, so that the user can conveniently view some common information under the condition that the mobile phone is off. It can be known that some fingerprint identification marks, other notification information and the like can be displayed in the mobile phone screen-off display state.

In the electronic device, the picture pattern of the screen-off picture in screen-off display may be a still picture or a moving picture, and as shown in fig. 2, when the picture pattern of the screen-off picture of the mobile phone is a moving picture, a preset moving picture is displayed in the center position above the touch screen, the current date and time are displayed below the picture, and the emergency call key, health monitoring and current electric quantity information are displayed at the lowest part. The preset dynamic picture can be dynamically displayed all the time, can be statically displayed for a long time, and is played only when a user clicks or lightly touches the touch screen of the mobile phone.

In addition, in the electronic apparatus, the display mode of the off-screen display (off-screen display mode) may also include a touch display, an all-day display, and a timing display. The touch display means that the electronic equipment displays a black screen after the screen is turned off, no screen-off picture is displayed, and when a user lightly clicks the screen, the screen-off display is triggered, and a preset screen-off picture is displayed. The whole day display means that the screen always displays the picture of the screen after the electronic equipment is turned off. The timing display means that after the electronic equipment is turned off, the preset off-screen picture is displayed only in a designated off-screen display time period, and the black screen is displayed in other time periods.

Of course, the electronic device may also be other devices with display screens (such as a tablet computer, a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a wearable device, an internet of things device, etc.), which is not limited by the present application. In some scenes, the display content of the screen can be adjusted according to the user setting, for example, travel type notification information, sports type notification information, weather type notification information and custom type notification information can be displayed.

In the scenario shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, after the electronic device starts the screen-off display function, in order to display the corresponding screen-off picture, the touch screen needs to be in a state that can be awakened at any time, that is, the touch screen needs to be continuously powered, and during the period of screen-off or screen-off picture non-display, standby power consumption of the electronic device after screen-off is larger.

In order to solve the problem that in the related art, after the screen-off display function of the electronic device is turned on, the power consumption of the touch control hardware of the electronic device is larger, the embodiment of the application provides a screen-off power consumption control method, which controls the power supply state of the touch control screen of the electronic device through different display modes and screen-off display contents of screen-off display, so that the touch control hardware (such as a touch control sensor or a touch control chip, etc.) in the touch control screen is powered down (i.e. power supply is stopped) under the unnecessary condition, thereby saving unnecessary power consumption and further realizing the purpose of reducing the power consumption of the electronic device.

The screen-off display content in the application mainly comprises, but is not limited to, screen-off display pictures, wherein the screen-off display pictures comprise static pictures and dynamic pictures.

In some embodiments, two variables P1 and P2 are defined in the off-screen display application module, where P1 is used to record an off-screen display mode set by a user, and P2 is used to record off-screen display content, that is, off-screen pictures, such as a personalized picture, an artistic signature, an artistic style, and the like; for example, p1=1, where p1=2 indicates that the off-screen display mode is the light touch display, p1=2 indicates that the off-screen display mode is the timing display, and p1=3 indicates that the off-screen display mode is the full day display; in addition, a variable P3 can be defined in the screen-off display application module, and the variable P3 is used for recording the state of the touch hardware of the touch screen after screen-off, including a power-down state and a power-on state, wherein in the screen-off state, p3=0 represents the power-down state, p3=1 represents the power-on state, and in the power-on state, p3=0 represents the power-on state, p3=1 represents the reset state, namely, the current state of the touch hardware is cleared and reset, and then the touch hardware is switched to the power-on working mode, and the touch hardware is in the power-on state.

In some embodiments, if the touch screen is switched from the normal operation mode to the fast wake-up mode, although power is required to be supplied to the touch hardware, the touch function of the touch screen is different, in the normal operation mode of the touch screen, the sliding, long-press and other touch functions of the touch screen can be realized, but in the fast wake-up mode, power is still required to be supplied to the touch hardware, but the touch screen can only detect an external click, that is, a click event is acquired by clicking the touch screen, and then the touch screen is woken up to perform screen-off display, so if the current state of the touch screen is the fast wake-up mode, p3=1 at this time; after the touch screen is lightened, the quick wake-up mode needs to be reset clearly, and then the normal working mode is entered, wherein p3=1 represents a reset state.

It should be noted that P in the above variables is only used to distinguish between different variables, and does not have other meanings, and the values of specific variables are not limited to the above numbers, and in the actual application process, other variable expression forms, value forms, and the like may be adopted, and the present application is not limited specifically.

As a specific example, fig. 5-1 to 5-4 illustrate relevant interfaces for user to perform a screen-off setting in a setting of an electronic device in an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 5-1, after the electronic device opens the setup application, the default user interface provided by the setup application. The user interface may include: flight mode, WLAN, bluetooth, mobile network, desktop, wallpaper, and the like. The electronic device may detect a touch operation by a user on different function options in the user interface, in response to which the electronic device may turn on or off functions of the flight mode, WLAN, bluetooth, mobile network, desktop, wallpaper, and the like. The user interface comprises a desktop and wallpaper option, and the desktop and wallpaper option can be used for setting desktop theme, desktop display icons, wallpaper and the like of the electronic equipment.

As shown in fig. 5-1, the electronic device may detect a user operation on the "desktop and wallpaper" option, in response to which the electronic device displays a user interface as shown in fig. 5-2, which is an interface that sets the desktop, desktop style, and off screen of the electronic device. When the electronic device detects a user operation acting on the "off-screen display" option, the electronic device displays a setting interface of the off-screen display function as shown in fig. 5-3 in response to the operation. The electronic device can set the screen-off display mode, the screen-off picture and the like of the screen-off display function according to the operation of a user.

When the electronic device detects a user operation acting on the "display mode" option, in response to this operation, the electronic device displays a setting interface of the off-screen display mode as shown in fig. 5 to 4, which can complete the selection of the off-screen display mode, the current display including a tact display, a full day display and a timing display, the interface having currently selected the tact display mode, a simple introduction of the tact display such as "tact screen, off-screen display occurrence" appears below which a description prompt is provided: when the electric quantity is less than 10%, the content such as screen-off display is not generated, so that a user can know the differences and characteristics among the display modes.

The screen-off display interface is mainly used for selecting screen-off pictures, the current screen-off display is in an on state, and when the touch screen is in screen-off, the time, date, short message, incoming call reminding and other information are displayed through the display screen, as shown in the figure, the current display mode is selected as touch display, and the setting of the screen-off pictures can be freely combined and set under various types such as individual pictures, artistic signatures and artistic styles.

The touch control module is used for receiving the information of the upper layer apk and carrying out corresponding processing according to different information types, and for the scene of the embodiment of the application, the touch control module comprises three information types, namely a timing switching mode, a screen-off display mode and a power supply control message, wherein the timing switching message can call a timing switching node of a kernel layer, the screen-off display mode can call a screen-off display mode node, and the power supply control message can call a power supply control node;

The HILD is used for an interface connection between the hardware abstraction layer and the application side, the screen-off display application module of the application layer can call the HILD interface of the touch control module in the hardware abstraction layer, and call the screen-off display mode node, the timing switching node or the power control node through the touch control module, for example, the touch state flag bit can be set to true or false through the screen-off display mode node, the touch state flag bit mainly refers to the value of P3, the value can be written into the screen-off display mode node of the touch driving module through the touch control module, for example, the touch state flag bit is true when the value of the screen-off display mode node is 1, and the touch state of the touch screen can be judged to be the power supply state at the moment; otherwise, under the condition that the value of the screen-off display mode node is 0, the touch state mark is false, and at the moment, the touch state of the touch screen can be judged to be the power-down state.

The touch control driving module is used as a driving program of the touch control hardware and is used for receiving the call of the touch control module upwards and then operating the touch control hardware resource downwards;

the touch algorithm module is used for calculating the touch point coordinates of the touch screen, and when the touch screen is in a bright screen, the touch point coordinates of the touch screen are calculated at a preset frequency, and at the moment, the touch algorithm module is in a working state; when the touch screen is in a screen-off state, the touch algorithm module enters a dormant state so as to save power consumption, and the touch driving module informs the touch algorithm module to switch between a working state and the dormant state based on the value of a screen-off display mode node;

The input subsystem belongs to a mechanism of the inner core layer, a communication channel is provided between the touch control driving module and the upper screen-off display application module, for example, a user clicks a screen when the touch control screen is off, a clicking event of clicking the screen can be uploaded to the screen-off display application module through the input subsystem, and then a prefabricated screen-off picture is displayed through the screen-off display application module, for example, touch display of the touch control screen or click play of a dynamic picture can be realized through the input subsystem.

As shown in fig. 4, the hardware abstraction layer is an interface layer between the kernel layer and the hardware layer, and may be used to abstract hardware. In some embodiments, a hardware abstraction layer interface definition language is also included between the application layer framework layer and the hardware abstraction layer. For example, the off-screen display application of the application layer may invoke the HILD interface to send the instruction information associated with the off-screen to the hardware abstraction layer. And then, the hardware abstraction layer calls a screen-off display mode node, a timing switching node or a power supply control node in the kernel layer, and sends instruction information related to screen-off to the kernel layer.

For example, describing an example in which touch hardware is taken as a touch sensor, as shown in fig. 4, when a screen-off display mode set by a user is light touch display, and a picture style of a screen-off picture is a static picture, detecting the screen-off setting of the user through a screen-off display application module of an application layer, recording screen-off setting information through variables P1 and P2, and recording touch state information through a variable P3, wherein it is known that in a screen-off setting scene, the touch screen needs to be in a fast wake-up mode, that is, power needs to be supplied to the touch hardware of the touch screen, and at the moment, the P3 can take a value of 1; in this case, after the electronic device is turned off, the off-screen display application module may determine the off-screen display mode selected by the user and the picture style of the off-screen picture, and record p1=1, p2=1, and p3=1 in the off-screen state.

Furthermore, the HILD interface is called through the screen-off display application module, the screen-off display application module is communicated with the touch control module through the HILD interface, the screen-off display application module sends a screen-off display mode, namely P3=0, to the touch control module, the screen-off display mode node is called through the touch control module, the value of P3 is written into the screen-off display mode node, at the moment, P3 can be understood as a touch state zone bit, and the value of P3 can influence the state of the zone bit to be true or false; when a touch screen of the electronic equipment enters a dormant state, the touch driving module judges a touch state flag bit, if true, namely P3=1, the touch screen enters a rapid wake-up mode, the touch screen is in a power supply state, and the power consumption is about 3 mA; if the touch state flag bit is false, namely P3=0, powering down the touch sensor of the touch screen; and then, sending a screen-off instruction to the touch control module at the screen-off display application module, wherein the touch control module can call a power control node of the touch control driving module based on the screen-off instruction, the touch control driving module can send a screen-off message to the touch control algorithm module to inform the touch control algorithm module to enter a dormant state or a sleep state, and the touch control driving module directly electrifies a touch control power supply of the touch control screen. When the touch algorithm module enters the dormant state, the high-frequency calculation of the touch coordinates of the touch screen is not needed, and the purpose of reducing power consumption can be achieved.

In the above embodiment, when the touch screen is in the fast wake mode, for example, when the touch sensor detects that the user's finger clicks the screen of the touch screen, the touch sensor may report a single click event to the touch driving module. For example, when the screen is turned off and the display mode is set to be a touch display mode and a static picture, if the screen is turned off, the touch sensor can calculate a current event by judging the change of the capacitance value, if the screen is turned off, an interrupt is reported to the touch driving module, after the touch driving receives the interrupt report, the touch driving module communicates with the touch sensor through an SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface ) to read the single-click event, at the moment, the touch sensor can report the clicking event to the touch driving module, then the touch driving module reports the single-click event to the screen-off display application module through the input subsystem, the screen-off display application module is switched from an off state to a Doze state, and a preset static picture is displayed through an interface of the electronic equipment.

The off state of the off-screen display application module mainly means that the off-screen display application module can enter a dormant state without electric consumption in the time when the off-screen display application module does not display the off-screen picture after receiving the off-screen setting of a user, and the Doze state mainly means a low-power consumption state mode, and under the state, the off-screen setting of the user on an interface of the electronic equipment can be received, the off-screen picture is displayed, and the like, so that the power consumption of the module is saved.

In some embodiments, when the off-screen display mode set by the user is a timing display mode and the picture style of the off-screen picture is a still picture, the value of the variable P1 in the off-screen display application module is 2, the value of P2 is 1, and in the off-screen state, the value of the touch state variable P3 of the corresponding touch screen is 0.

And after the screen-off display application module detects screen-off, the screen-off display application module can communicate with the touch control module by calling the HILD interface, the variable information of the P3 is sent to the touch control module, the value of the screen-off display mode node is set to be the value of P3 by the touch control module, namely, the touch state zone bit of the touch screen is set to be false, at the moment, when the touch screen is off, the touch screen is controlled to be in a power-down state, and the touch sensor of the touch screen can be directly powered down by the touch drive module so as to save unnecessary power consumption of the touch sensor, and only the screen-off display application module is used for carrying out low-power consumption screen-off picture display.

In this embodiment, although the screen-off display mode is a timing display, the screen-off picture is displayed only in a preset time period, and the screen is turned off in a non-preset time period, the touch sensor of the touch screen is always in a powered-down state in the scene, so that the power consumption of the electronic device can be reduced under the condition that the screen-off experience of the user is not affected.

As an example, in this embodiment, if the user screen is on, that is, if the touch screen is on, the touch control module may send an on command to the touch control module through the off display application module, and the touch control module may call the power control node in the kernel layer according to the on command, and further notify the touch algorithm module of the on message through the touch driving module, so that the touch algorithm module enters a working state, and at this time, since the touch screen is in the on state, the touch driving module determines that the P3 value is 0, the touch power supply of the touch hardware of the touch screen may be powered.

In some embodiments, when the screen-off display mode set by the user is timing display and the picture style of the screen-off picture is a dynamic picture, when the screen-off display application module enters the screen-off process, whether the current system time is within a preset time period needs to be judged, if not, the touch control module calls the screen-off display mode node, writes the value of p3=0 into the screen-off display mode node, and at the moment, the touch state flag bit of the touch screen is adjusted to false, and after the screen is turned off, the touch control power supply of the touch screen is directly powered down through the touch control driving module.

In some embodiments, when the screen-off display application module detects that the current system time meets the requirement of the preset time period, a timing conversion instruction is sent to the touch control module, the touch control module replaces the value of the screen-off display mode node in the touch control driving module with 1, at the moment, the timing conversion node in the touch control driving module places the value of P3 with 1, then the touch control driving module supplies power to the touch control sensor, and the touch control screen enters a quick wake-up mode.

In this embodiment, in the preset time period, the touch screen is in the fast wake-up mode, and at this time, not only the preset screen-off picture can be displayed, but also the animation in the dynamic picture can be played when the touch screen detects the click event.

As an example, when the screen-off picture is set as a moving picture, the moving picture is continuously played in a circulation manner, which may consume electric power faster, and generally, any one frame or the set picture in the moving picture may be set, for example, the first frame picture in the moving picture is used as a still display picture, and only the still display picture is displayed in the screen-off state, and only when the touch screen is activated by a click event, the corresponding animation is played, and so on. The application is not limited to a specific screen-off picture display mode.

In some embodiments, when the screen-off display mode set by the user is timing display and the picture style of the screen-off picture is a dynamic picture, if the touch status flag bit is adjusted to true, that is, p3=1, when the screen is turned off, after the electronic device is turned off, the touch screen is in a fast wake-up mode, but when the system time passes by a preset time period, the screen-off display application module will send a timing switching instruction to the touch control module, the touch control module writes 0 into the timing switching node, sets P3 to 0 through the timing switching node, adjusts the touch status flag bit to false, resets the touch sensor, and finally powers off the touch sensor.

As shown in fig. 9, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling power consumption of a screen, which may include the following steps:

s1: the touch control module acquires a screen-off display mode in screen-off setting information of the electronic equipment and a picture pattern of a screen-off picture in screen-off display content.

Specifically, the user can start the screen-off display function in the setting of the electronic device, and perform corresponding screen-off setting, wherein the screen-off display has different setting modes, including touch display, full-day display and timing display. The touch display means that the electronic equipment displays a black screen after the screen is turned off, does not display the screen-off animation, and when a user lightly clicks the screen, the screen-off display is triggered and the prefabricated screen-off animation is displayed. The whole day display means that the screen always displays the picture of the screen after the electronic equipment is turned off. The timing display means that a preset screen-off picture is displayed through a screen only in a designated time, and the electronic equipment is in a black screen state after screen-off in other time periods.

The preset screen-off pictures are also divided into two types, namely a static picture and a dynamic picture. When the screen-off display function of the electronic equipment is started and the screen-off picture is a dynamic picture, the animation can be played when the user lightly touches the screen. It can be known that in different screen-off display scenes, the touch screen needs to be in different states so as to achieve the purpose of reducing standby power consumption.

For example, the electronic device may detect a user operation on the "desktop and wallpaper" option, in response to which the electronic device may display a user interface, which may be an interface to set the desktop, lock, and quench of the electronic device. When the electronic equipment detects the user operation acting on the 'off-screen display' option, the electronic equipment displays a corresponding off-screen setting interface in response to the operation, and the electronic equipment can set the display mode, the display time of the display function, the off-screen picture and the display style of the off-screen display according to the operation of the user.

In other embodiments, the electronic device may further turn on the off-screen display function according to the received voice control operation of the user. For example, after the user inputs "turn on the off-screen display function" by voice, the electronic device receives a voice control instruction from the user, and then turns on the off-screen display function in response to the voice control instruction.

It should be explained that the above electronic device starts the screen-off display function according to the received touch operation or voice control instruction, which is only described as an example, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

S2: according to the acquired screen-off display mode or according to the screen-off display mode and the picture pattern of the screen-off picture, determining the touch state of the touch screen of the electronic equipment after screen-off; the touch state comprises a power supply state for supplying power to touch hardware in the touch screen and a power-down state for stopping supplying power to the touch hardware.
