Abstract
An electronic device may include a display, and a processor operatively connected to the display. The processor is configured to identify a frame rate of a first application that is currently being executed. The processor is also configured to, based on the frame rate, determine a scanning rate of the display and a frame refresh rate for refreshing a frame related to the first application. The processor is further configured to control a first screen refresh of the first application, based on the scanning rate and the frame refresh rate.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a processor operatively connected to the display,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- identify a frame rate of a first application that is currently being executed,
- based on the frame rate, determine a scanning rate of the display,
- based on the frame rate and the determined scanning rate, determine a frame refresh rate for refreshing a frame related to the first application by determining the frame refresh rate as a value closest to the frame rate among values corresponding to divisors of the determined scanning rate, and
- control a first screen refresh of the first application, based on the scanning rate and the frame refresh rate.
A screen refresh method of an electronic device, the screen refresh method comprising:
- identifying a frame rate of a first application that is currently being executed;
- determining a scanning rate of a display, based on the frame rate;
- determining a frame refresh rate for refreshing a frame related to the first application, based on the determined scanning rate by determining the frame refresh rate as a value closest to the frame rate among values corresponding to divisors of the determined scanning rate;
- and
- controlling a first screen refresh of the first application, based on the determined scanning rate and the determined frame refresh rate.
