BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field ofthe Invention
The present invention relates to a display device.
More particularly, the present invention relates to a display device in which a dynamic picture and a still picture are displayed simultaneously or selectively on the screen of a CRT display.
Description of the Prior Art
Recently, television text broadcast has been realized and apparatus for receiving such television text broadcast have been put into practical use. As one form of such television text broadcast, teletext is known. Atechnical document well known in the art concerning such teletext receiving apparatus is "LSI circuits forteletext and view data" (THE LUCY
GENERATION Mullard Technical Publication M81 0001).
Fig. lisa schematic block diagram showing a display device in a conventional teletext receiving apparatus. First, referring to Fig. 1, a display device in a conventional teletext receiving apparatus will be described. To a CPU 1, a frame memory 2 and an offset register 6 are connected. The frame memory 2 has a display area corresponding to the screen of a CRT display 5 and stores picture data to be displayed . The offset register 6 stores the first address oftheframe memory 2 provided from the CPU 1.The first address stored in the offset register 6 is supplied to one input of an adder 7, while a read address of the frame memory 2 is supplied to the other input of the adder7 from a controller 4.
The adder 7 adds up thefirstaddress supplied from the offset register 6 and the read address supplied from the controller4so as to designate an address in the frame memory 2. Astill picture signal A based on the picture data read out from the frame memory 2 for displaying a still picture is supplied to a selector 3. To the selector 3, a dynamic picture signal B for displaying a dynamic picture is supplied from the exteriorthrough an inputterminal 12. The selector 3 is switched by a selection switch 8 so that eitherthe dynamic picture signal B entered from the input terminal 12 orthe still picture signal A based on the picture data read outfrom the frame memory 2 is supplied to the CRT display 5.
Now, the operation of the display device in the conventional teletext receiving apparatus will be described. First, the CPU 1 makes the offset register 6 store the address corresponding to the first scanning line of the screen ofthe CRT display 5. The adder 7 adds up the address stored in the offset register 6 and the read address supplied from the controller 4 so as to designate addresses in the frame memory 2 corresponding to thefirst scanning line of the screen.
In response to the designation of the addresses, the frame memory 2 reads out successively a still picture signal A. The still picture signal A is supplied to the selector 3.
On the other hand, in synchronism with the still picture signal A read outfrom the frame memory 2, the dynamic picture signal B entered from the exterior through the inputterminal 12 is su pplied to the selector 3. Eitherthe still picture signal A or the dynamic picture signal B is selecte by the selector 3 according to the switching of the selection switch 8.
Thus, the selected one ofthe pictures, namely, either the still picture orthe dynamic picture is displayed on the CRT display 5.
In the display device shown in Fig. 1, ifthe selection switch 8 selects the still picture signal A, the adder 7 adds to or subtractsfrom the first address stored in the offset register 6, the address from the controller 5, wherebythefirst address value read out of the frame memory 2 can be changed according to the screen for display and thus, display can be made on a scrolled screen.
However, the above stated display device can only display by selection, either a dynamic picture or a still picture on the CRT display 5 but cannot display simultaneously a dynamic picture and a still picture in divided areas on the CRT display 5. As a result, the above stated conventional display device has a drawback that a dynamic picture and still picture associated with each other cannot be displayed in parallel so that a viewer may compare or examine them.
SUMMARYOFTHE INVENTION
Therefore, a principal objectofthe present invention isto provide a display device in which a still picture and a dynamic picture can be displayed in display areas divided on the CRT display and a scrolld picture can be displayed in the still picture display area.
Briefly stated, in the present invention, a value representing a horizontal border line dividing horizontally display areas on the screen of the CRT display is in advance by setting means so that pictures may be displayed in the divided display areas. Then, a synchronizing signal is counted and the count value and the value set by the setting means are compared.
In responsetothe comparison output signal, the screen ofthe CRT display is horizontally divided into display areas, so that a picture based on a video signal applied to an input terminal and a picture based on the picture data read out from a frame memory are selected by selecting means and displayed in the divided areas on the CRT display.
Consequently, according to the present invention, display areas on the screen ofthe CRT display are divided and a video signal based on a pictureto be displayed on a divided display area is selected according to the data representing the horizontal border line of the divided display areas and thus, a dynamic picture and a still picture can be displayed simultaneously in the divided display areas. In addition, only the still picture can be scrolled in a divided displayareaand accordingly,thedisplayfunctioncan be improved, which will lead to wider utilization.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OFTHE DRAWINGS
Fig. lisa schematic block diagram showing a conventional display device.
Fig. 2 is a schematic block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Fig. 2 is a schematic block diagram of an embodiment ofthe present invention. First referring to Fig. 1, a structure of an embodimentofthe present invention will be described. In Fig. 2, the CPU 1, the frame memory 2, the selector3, the offset registeró and the adder7 are the same as shown in Fig. 1. The controller 4 is structured so as to generate a horizontal synchronizing signal in synchronism with a video signal based on the picture data read outfrom the frame memory 2.
The horizontal synchronization signal generated from the controller 4 is surlied to the counter 9.
The counter 9 counts the horizontal synchronizing signal and supplied the count outputto the comparator 11. The selection value register 10 stores a selection value representing a horizontal border line ofthe display areas divided horizontaily on the screen ofthe CRTdisplay 5.Thisselection vaiue is supplied from the CPU 1 to the selection value register 10. The selection value stored in the selection value register 10 is supplied to the comparator 11. The comparator 11 compares the selection value supplied from the selection value register 10with the countoutputfrom the counter9 and provides the output of comparison to the selector3.The selector3 divides display areas on the screen ofthe CRT display 5 based on the output of comparison from the comparator 11,so that a picture based on the still picture signal A read outfrom the frame memory 2 is displayed in one of the divided display areas and a picture based on the dynamic picture signal B entered through the inputterminal 12 is displayed in the other display area.
Now, in the following, the operation of a display device in accordance with an embodiment ofthe present invention will be described. The CPU 1 stores the selection value in the selection value register 10 and stores the first address oftheframe memory 2 in the offset register 6. The first address of the frame memory 2 stored in the offset register 6 is supplied to the adder7. The adder 7 aåds the read address supplied to the adder 7. The adder 7 adds the read address supplied from the controller4to the first address so as to designate successively addresses of the frame memory 2.
The controller 4 generates the horizontal synchro nizingsignal and supplies ittothecounter9.Tlne counter 9 counts the horizontal synchronizing signal and supplies the count outputto the comparator 11.
The comparator 11 compares the count value C of the counter 9 with the selection value D stored in the selection value register 10 and based on the output of comparison, the selector 3 is controlled so that a dynamic picture and a still picture are displayed respectively in the two different display areas on the screen ofthe CRT display 5.
More specifically, in case where the countvalue C of the counter 9 is smallerthanthe selection value D,the selection signal S from the comparator 11 is S=1.The selector3 selectsthe dynamic picture signal B entered from the inputterminal 12 based on the selection signal S=1 and supplies the dynamic picture signal B to the CRT display. As a result, in the upper display area on the screen ofthe CRTdisplay 5, a dynamic picture based on the dynamic picture signal B is displayed. When the counter 9 countsthe horizontal synchronizing signal and the countvalue C ofthe counter9 becomes largethantheselectionvalueD, the selection signal from the comparator 11 is S=0.
Then, based on the selection signal S=0, the selector3 selects the still picture signal A read out from the frame memory 2 so that a still picture based on the still picture signal A is displayed in the lower display area on the screen of the CRT display 5. Thus, a dynamic picture and a still picture are displayed simultaneously in the respective display areas divided horizontally on the screen of the CRT display 5.
The horizontal synchronizing signal counted by the counter9 can be separated in synchronism directly from the video signal entered from the exterior throughtheinputtermina112.
Although in the above described embodiment, the screen of the CRT display 5 is divided into two display areas with a comparator 11 and a selection value register 10 being provided, a plurality of comparators 11 and selection value registers 10 may be provided and in this case, by applying the count value of the horizontal synchronizing signal to the respective comparators 11 and storing different selection values in the selection value registers 10, different pictures can be displayed in a plurality of display areas divided on the screen ofthe CRTdisplay 5.
In addition, although in the above described embodiment, the selector 3 selects the dynamic picture signal B with the relation between the count value C ofthe counter9 and the selection valueD of the selection value register 10 being C < D and selects the still picture signal Awith the relatio being C > D,the selector may select on the contrary, the dynamic picture signal B with the relation of C > D and the still picture signal Awith the relation of C < D.
Although the present invention has been described and illustrated in detail, it is clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be taken byway of limitation, the spirit and scope of the present invention being limited only bythetermsoftheappended claims.
