附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本公开实施例的技术方案,下面将对实施例的附图作简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述的附图仅仅涉及本公开的一些实施例,而非对本公开的限制。
图1为本公开至少一个实施例中显示驱动装置的结构示意图;
图2为本公开至少一个实施例中控制方法的流程图;

具体实施方式
为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图,对本公开实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例是本公开的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于所描述的本公开的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
在实际设计中,一个处理芯片的存储带宽及传输接口的数量是有限的,这就导致仅设置一个处理芯片无法满足高分辨率显示面板的要求,因此需要设置两个或更多的处理芯片。这种设计能够适应高分辨率显示面板的设计,然而,这样设计并不能保证多个处理芯片各自输出的显示数据均属于同一帧画面,从而导致画面的显示异常。
一般处理芯片可以设置为现场可编程逻辑门阵列(Field Programmable Gate Array,FPGA)芯片。这样待显示帧画面的显示数据可以经过FPGA芯片进行相关的图像处理后再输出至显示面板中,以对显示面板进行驱动,实现画面显示。通常的做法是通过FPGA芯片将几个待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至与该FPGA芯片电连接的存储器内,而后FPGA芯片对存储器内缓存 的显示数据进行读取并处理后输出给显示面板。
随着高分辨率显示面板的出现,对存储带宽和高速传输接口的要求越来越高。在实际设计中,一个FPGA芯片的存储带宽及传输接口的数量是有限的,这就导致仅设置一个FPGA芯片无法满足高分辨率显示面板的要求,从而需要设置两个或更多的FPGA芯片。由于设置多个FPGA芯片,通常会将一个待显示帧画面分割为多个区域,其中,一个区域对应一个FPGA芯片,一个FPGA芯片对应设置一个存储器。每一FPGA芯片均将多帧待显示帧画面对应区域的显示数据在对应的存储器中按次序进行存储,而后读取对应存储器中的显示数据并进行处理后输出给显示面板。这种设计能够适应高分辨率显示面板的要求。
为了保证多个FPGA芯片各自输出的显示数据可以均属于同一帧画面,一般通过使各FPGA芯片之间共享存储器的帧地址。即在一个FPGA芯片将某一帧待显示帧画面的显示数据存储至对应的存储器的帧地址中时,其余FPGA芯片对应的存储器的帧地址也同步变化,以将该待显示帧画面的显示数据同步存储至对应的存储器的帧地址中。然而,在存储器初始化失败或传输接口不能锁定等问题出现时,可能会导致某个FPGA芯片的存储器的帧地址突变,例如复位。由于各FPGA芯片之间共享存储器的帧地址,若某个FPGA芯片的存储器的帧地址突变,其余FPGA芯片的存储器的帧地址也会突变。这样可能导致各FPGA芯片从存储器中存储和读取的显示数据不能属于同一帧画面,从而导致画面的显示异常。
基于此,如图1所示,本公开实施例提供了一种显示驱动装置,可以包括:至少两个处理芯片100_m(m为大于或等于1且小于或等于M的整数,M为处理芯片的总数,且M为大于1的整数,图1以M=2为例),与各处理芯片100_m一一对应电连接的存储器200_m。各存储器200_m包括按次序设置的多个帧地址,例如,存储器200_m可以具有按次序设置的K个帧地址,即帧地址0、1、2……K-1;其中,K为大于1的整数。
并且,每一待显示帧画面可以包括至少两个图像区域AA_m,同一待显示帧画面中,每一图像区域AA_m对应一个处理芯片100_m。例如,图像区域AA_1对应处理芯片100_1,图像区域AA_2对应处理芯片100_2,其余同理,在此不作赘述。将这M个处理芯片中的一个处理芯片定义为主处理芯片, 其余处理芯片定义为从处理芯片,例如将处理芯片100_1定义为主处理芯片,处理芯片100_2~100_M定义为从处理芯片。
如图2所示,本公开实施例提供的显示驱动装置的控制方法,可以包括如下步骤:
S201、主处理芯片接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据;每一从处理芯片接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据;
S202、主处理芯片在缓存接收到的显示数据时生成读写同步信号,每一从处理芯片接收读写同步信号;
S203、主处理芯片响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板;每一从处理芯片响应于读写同步信号,将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据同步缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行同步读取与处理后传输至显示面板。在一个实施例中,响应于读写同步信号,主处理芯片和每一从处理芯片同步地将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并同步地对连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板。
本公开实施例提供的显示驱动装置的控制方法,通过设置一个主处理芯片及多个从处理芯片,这样可以有利于实现高分辨率显示面板的设计。并且,在主处理芯片对接收的当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据进行缓存时,可以生成读写同步信号并将生成的读写同步信号发送给每一个从处理芯片。以通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和每一从处理芯片将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板,以驱动显示面板进行画面显示。并且,由于通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和各从处理芯片控制存储器的存储和读取操作,可以避免各处理芯片之间共享存储器的帧地址,这样在某一个处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址突变时,并不会影响其余处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址,从而可以保证各个处理芯片输出的显示数据均属于同一帧画面,进而可以消除多个 处理芯片不同步导致的画面显示异常的问题。
在具体实施时,如图1所示,可以使M=2,这样可以设置2个处理芯片100_1~100_2,2个存储器200_1~200_2。或者,也可以使M=3,这样可以设置3个处理芯片100_1~100_3,3个存储器200_1~200_3。或者,也可以使M=4,这样可以设置4个处理芯片100_1~100_4,4个存储器200_1~200_4。当然,不同应用环境对M的取值的需求不同,因此M的取值可以根据实际应用环境来设计确定,在此不作限定。
在具体实施时,如图1所示,各处理芯片100_m均连接同一个信号接收接口400,以通过信号接收接口400接收待显示帧画面的显示数据。在本公开实施例中,可以使主处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址与各从处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址相同。这样使得从存储器中读取存储的显示数据的帧地址也相同。例如,以某个视频具有300个连续的画面,存储器200_m可以存储3个帧地址:帧地址0、帧地址1以及帧地址2为例。主处理芯片100_1在对应的存储器200_1的帧地址0中存储第1个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,从处理芯片100_2~100_M也在对应的存储器200_2~100_M的帧地址0中存储第1个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据。主处理芯片100_1在对应的存储器200_1的帧地址1中存储第2个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,从处理芯片100_2~100_M也在对应的存储器200_2~100_M的帧地址1中存储第2个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据。其余同理,在此不作赘述。当然,在实际应用中,也可以使主处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址与各从处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址不相同,在此不作限定。
进一步地,在具体实施时,可以使存储器中缓存上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址的次序在缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址的次序之前。这样可以确保读取的帧地址位于存储的帧地址之前,从而避免显示异常的问题。例如,处理芯片100_m在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址0中存储有第1个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,则处理芯片100_m响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址1中存储第2个 待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,并将对应的存储器200_m的帧地址0中存储的第1个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址2中存储第3个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,并将对应的存储器200_m的帧地址1中存储的第2个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板。其余同理,在此不作赘述。
在具体实施时,每一处理芯片100_m可以被配置为接收至少两个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,响应于读写同步信号将接收到的至少两个待显示帧画面的显示数据按次序循环缓存至电连接的存储器200_m的帧地址中,以及将对应的存储器200_m中缓存的待显示帧画面的显示数据按次序循环进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板。在一个实施例中,每一处理芯片100_m可以被配置为接收至少两个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据,响应于读写同步信号按次序循环使用电连接的存储器200_m的多个帧地址将接收到的至少两个待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至电连接的存储器200_m中(例如,按照上述的帧地址1,帧地址2,帧地址0,帧地址1,帧地址2……的顺序循环地缓存),以及对于存储器200_m的多个帧地址按次序循环地将对应的存储器200_m中缓存的待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板(例如,按照上述的帧地址0,帧地址1,帧地址2,帧地址0,帧地址1……的顺序循环地读取)。这样可以避免存储和读取同一存储器中的帧地址,从而避免显示异常的问题。
具体地,存储器200_m存储的帧地址可以为N个。例如,以N=3为例,存储器200_m可以存储3个帧地址:帧地址0、帧地址1以及帧地址2。例如某个新视频具有300个连续的画面,则处理芯片100_m循环接收3个待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_m的显示数据。处理芯片100_m将接收到的3个待显示帧画面的显示数据(即连续的3个待显示帧画面的显示数据)按次序循环缓存至电连接的存储器200_m的帧地址中,并将对应的存储器200_m中缓存的3个待显示帧画面的显示数据按次序循环进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,指的可以是:响应于读写同步信号先在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址0中存储该新视频的第1个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址0中存储的上一个视频的待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示 面板。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址1中存储第2个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址0中存储的第1个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,以使显示面板显示第1个待显示帧画面。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址2中存储第3个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址1中存储的第2个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,以使显示面板显示第2个待显示帧画面。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址0中存储第4个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址2中存储的第3个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,以使显示面板显示第3个待显示帧画面。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址1中存储第5个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址0中存储的第4个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,以使显示面板显示第4个待显示帧画面。之后,响应于读写同步信号在对应的存储器200_m的帧地址2中存储第6个待显示帧画面的显示数据,并将帧地址1中存储的第5个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取并转换后传输至显示面板,以使显示面板显示第5个待显示帧画面。之后按照帧地址0、帧地址1、帧地址2的次序进行循环存储,以及按照帧地址2、帧地址0、帧地址1的次序进行循环读取,以驱动显示面板显示,在此不作赘述。
进一步地,为了使各处理芯片接收得到的显示数据的驱动时序同步,在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,主处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还接收帧起始信号,并且从处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还接收帧起始信号。即各处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还接收帧起始信号。
例如,在主处理芯片在缓存接收到的显示数据时生成读写同步信号,每一从处理芯片接收读写同步信号之前,根据本公开至少一个实施例的控制方法还可以包括:
主处理芯片根据帧起始信号生成帧起始同步信号,从处理芯片接收帧起始同步信号;
主处理芯片响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始信号生成对应主处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序;每一从处理芯片响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始 信号同步生成对应从处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序。
例如,在主处理芯片在缓存接收到的显示数据时生成读写同步信号,每一从处理芯片接收读写同步信号之后,根据本公开至少一个实施例的控制方法可以包括:
主处理芯片响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板;每一从处理芯片响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序同步缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序进行同步读取与处理后传输至显示面板。在一个实施例中,响应于读写同步信号,主处理芯片和每一从处理芯片同步地将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并同步地对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板。
这样使得主处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还接收帧起始信号,根据帧起始信号生成帧起始同步信号;之后,响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始信号生成对应主处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序。之后,在主处理芯片在缓存接收到的显示数据时生成读写同步信号,以响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板。并且,从处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还接收帧起始信号;并且,从处理芯片还接收主处理芯片发送的帧起始同步信号,响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始信号与主处理芯片同步地生成对应从处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序。之后,每一从处理芯片接收读写同步信号,以响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序与主处理芯片相同步地缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序与主处理芯片相同步地进行读取与处理后传输至显示面 板。这样主处理芯片通过帧起始信号可以确定一帧画面的开始,从而生成帧起始同步信号,以通过帧起始同步信号同时控制主处理芯片和从处理芯片分别对应各自接收的显示数据的驱动时序,从而可以使驱动显示数据显示的时序可以打齐,以使画面同步刷新。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,可以使每一待显示帧画面中的图像区域沿显示面板的像素单元的列方向延伸,且沿显示面板的像素单元的行方向排列。即可以使每一待显示帧画面包括沿显示面板的像素单元的行方向依次排列的M个图像区域。以M=2为例,结合图1所示,每一待显示帧画面可以包括沿显示面板300的像素单元的行方向F1依次排列的2个图像区域AA_1和AA_2。
一般显示面板中会设置场同步信号(VS),如图3所示,VS信号的作用是选择出显示面板中有效场信号区间,例如VS信号中的下降沿时,可以说明一个新的待显示帧画面的显示数据开始根据显示面板中的第一行至最后一行像素单元依次传输了。在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,帧起始信号可以设置为场同步信号。这样可以保证存储器根据第一行至最后一行像素单元的顺序将对应图像区域的显示数据存储到帧地址中。
进一步地,显示面板中还会设置行同步信号(HS),有效显示数据选通信号(DE)等信号,在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,各处理芯片在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时还可以接收HS信号和DE信号中的至少一个,在此不作限定。当然,HS信号和DE信号的功能与现有的功能基本相同,为本领域的普通技术人员应该理解具有的,在此不做赘述,也不应作为对本公开的限制。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,可以使各图像区域AA_m的尺寸相同。这样可以使各处理芯片存储、读取以及处理的数据较均匀,从而使各处理芯片的功耗较均匀,以使各处理芯片的寿命较均匀。
基于同一发明构思,本公开至少一个实施例还提供了一种显示驱动装置,该显示驱动装置适于实施上述的根据本公开至少一个实施例的控制方法。如图1所示,主处理芯片100_1被配置为接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域AA_1的显示数据并生成读写同步信号,主处理芯片100_1响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器 200_1的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器200_1中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板300。
每一从处理芯片100_2~100_M(M为大于1的整数)被配置为接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据AA_2~AA_M与读写同步信号,响应于读写同步信号,将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据同步缓存至对应电连接的存储器200_2~200_M的帧地址中,并对连接的存储器200_2~200_M中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行同步读取与处理后传输至显示面板300。
在一个实施例中,响应于读写同步信号,主处理芯片100_1和每个从处理芯片100_2~100_M同步地将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据同步缓存至对应电连接的存储器200_1~200_M的帧地址中,并同步地对连接的存储器200_1~200_M中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板300。
本公开实施例提供的显示驱动装置,通过设置一个主处理芯片及至少一个从处理芯片,这样可以有利于实现高分辨率显示面板的设计。并且,在主处理芯片将接收的当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据进行缓存时,可以生成读写同步信号并将生成的读写同步信号发送给每一个从处理芯片。以通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和每一从处理芯片将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板,以驱动显示面板进行画面显示。并且,由于通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和各从处理芯片控制存储器的存储和读取操作,可以避免各处理芯片之间共享存储器的帧地址,这样在某一个处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址突变时,并不会影响其余处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址,从而可以保证各个处理芯片输出的显示数据均属于同一帧画面,进而可以消除多个处理芯片不同步导致的画面显示异常的问题。
例如,根据本公开实施例的显示驱动装置可适用于4K(3840*2160)显示面板、8K(7680*4320)显示面板等,本公开的实施例对此不做限制。

在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,主处理芯片还被配置为在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时接收帧起始信号,根据帧起始信号生成帧起始同步信号;响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始信号生成对应主处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序;响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板;
从处理芯片还被配置为接收帧起始同步信号,并在接收当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据时接收帧起始信号;响应于帧起始同步信号和帧起始信号同步生成对应从处理芯片接收的显示数据的驱动时序;响应于读写同步信号将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序与主处理芯片相同步地缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据和对应的驱动时序与主处理芯片相同步地进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,可以使存储器包括:双倍速率同步动态随机存储器(Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory,DDR SDRAM)。当然,在实际应用中,存储器还可以为其他类型的存储器,在此不作限定。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,可以使处理芯片100_m可以包括:现场可编程逻辑门阵列芯片(FPGA芯片)。其中,如图4所示,处理芯片100_m中的FPGA芯片可以包括:输入接口RX1_m和RX2_m,先进先出(First Input First Output,FIFO)存储模块110_m、时序产生模块120_m、写存储器控制器130_m、读存储器控制器140_m以及输出端口170_m。当然,在实际 应用中,处理芯片还可以为其他芯片,在此不作限定。例如,上述的FIFO存储模块110、时序产生模块120_m、写存储器控制器130_m、读存储器控制器140_m可通过软件、硬件、固件或其组合来实施。

主处理芯片100_1中的写存储器控制器130_1接收FIFO存储模块110_1中存储的显示数据以及接收该显示数据对应的驱动时序,并生成读写同步信号DX_3,以及将读写同步信号DX_3发送给主处理芯片100_1中的读存储器控制器140_1、从处理芯片100_2中的写存储器控制器130_2和读存储器控制器140_2。

在本公开一些实施例中,可以使主处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址与各从处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址相同。这样使得从存储器中读取存储的显示数据的帧地址也相同。当然,在另一些实施例中,也可以使主处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址与各从处理芯片电连接的存储器缓存当前待显示帧画面的显示数据的帧地址不相同,本公开的实施例对此不作限定。
基于同一发明构思,本公开实施例还提供了一种显示装置,如图5所示,显示装置500包括显示面板510和本公开实施例提供的显示驱动装置520。显示面板510配置为接收该显示驱动装置520传输的显示数据。显示面板510例如包括但不限于4K(3840*2160)显示面板、8K(7680*4320)显示面板等。该显示装置的实施可以参见上述显示驱动装置的实施例,重复之处不再赘述。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,显示面板例如可以为液晶显示面板或电致发光显示面板,在此不作限定。
在具体实施时,在本公开实施例中,显示装置可以为:手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示面板、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。对于该显示装置的其它必不可少的组成部分均为本领域的普通技术人员应该理解具有的,在此不做赘述,也不应作为对本公开的限制。
本公开实施例提供的显示驱动装置、其控制方法及显示装置,通过设置一个主处理芯片及至少一个从处理芯片,这样可以有利于实现高分辨率显示 面板的设计。并且,在主处理芯片对接收的当前待显示帧画面中对应图像区域的显示数据进行缓存时,可以生成读写同步信号并将生成的读写同步信号发送给每一个从处理芯片。以通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和每一从处理芯片将接收到的当前待显示帧画面的显示数据缓存至对应电连接的存储器的帧地址中,并对电连接的存储器中缓存的上一个待显示帧画面的显示数据进行读取与处理后传输至显示面板,以驱动显示面板进行画面显示。并且,由于通过读写同步信号控制主处理芯片和各从处理芯片控制存储器的存储和读取操作,可以避免各处理芯片之间共享存储器的帧地址,这样在某一个处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址突变时,并不会影响其余处理芯片对应的存储器的帧地址,从而可以保证各个处理芯片输出的显示数据均属于同一帧画面,进而可以消除多个处理芯片不同步导致的画面显示异常的问题。
以上所述仅是本公开的示范性实施方式,而非用于限制本公开的保护范围,本公开的保护范围由所附的权利要求确定。
