Abstract

This invention provides a method and apparatus to distribute pulses of a pulse width modulated signal over a time period. When applied to a digital display, the invention provides a signal representing the digital data comprising a plurality of smaller pulses distributed over the refresh time period to drive the display element. A logic circuit is provided to generate a plurality of combinable signals so that the incoming data can be combined with the signals to determine the mix of signals generated as a final output. The individual signals are generated by identifying the lowest order active bit of a counter that is subdividing the appropriate time period into smaller time divisions and generating a pulse on one of a plurality of outputs with each unique lowest order bit identified ouptut on a separate output and successive common lowest order bits identified generating pulses on the same output.
