Abstract
A display device includes a display panel having flexibility, a storage connected to a first end of the display panel and accommodating the display panel so that the display panel is inserted and withdrawn, an extension part connected to a second end of the display panel, which is opposite to the first end of the display panel, and facing one side of the storage in a first direction, and a display driving integrated circuit which receives image data and a control signal from a host and provides a data signal to the display panel. The display driving integrated circuit includes a data processor which receives a smart size change signal from the host and sets a non-active area of the display panel based on the smart size change signal.
Claims16
A display device comprising:
- a display panel having flexibility;
- a storage connected to a first end of the display panel and accommodating the display panel so that the display panel is inserted and withdrawn;
- an extension part connected to a second end of the display panel opposite to the first end of the display panel, the extension part facing a side of the storage in a first direction;
- and
- a display driving integrated circuit which receives image data and a control signal from a host and provides a data signal to the display panel, the display driving integrated circuit including:
- a data processor which receives a plurality of smart size change signals from the host and sets a non-active area of the display panel based on the smart size change signals,
- wherein the display driving integrated circuit receives the image data and the control signal from the host through a first interface,
- wherein the display driving integrated circuit receives the smart size change signals through a second interface different from the first interface, and
- wherein the second interface includes a plurality of connection lines respectively transmitting the smart size change signals so that a size of the non-active area is determined through a combination of respective levels of the smart size change signals.
A display device comprising:
- a host which transmits image data and a control signal through a first interface and transmits a plurality of smart size change signals through a second interface different from the first interface;
- a display driving integrated circuit including a first interface unit which receives the image data and the control signal through the first interface, and a second interface unit which receives the smart size change signals through the second interface;
- and
- a display panel which receives the image data, the control signal, and a data signal corresponding to the smart size change signals from the display driving integrated circuit to display an image, wherein the display driving integrated circuit includes a data processor setting a non-active area of the display panel based on the smart size change signals,
- and wherein the second interface includes a plurality of connection lines respectively transmitting the smart size change signals so that a size of the non-active area is determined through a combination of respective levels of the smart size change signals.
