Abstract
A data transmission method, a processor and a terminal. The method in the embodiments of the present invention comprises: converting, by a processor, RGB data into Pentile data; sending, by the processor, the Pentile data which is obtained after conversion to a display drive system, so that the display drive system sends a drive signal, into with the Pentile data is converted, to a display system. Therefore, there is no need to use an additional chip, thereby saving the costs of hardware, and reducing the power consumption and electric power consumption of transmission.
Claims3
A data transmission method, comprising:
