Abstract
The present embodiment relates to a power management circuit and timing controller for a display device. The power management circuit optimizes power consumption by receiving analysis information from a timing controller capable of analyzing image data and changing an operating condition for a power conversion circuit based on the analysis information.
Claims7
A timing controller comprising:
- a load analysis circuit configured to analyze image data for each frame of a plurality of frames and to calculate a panel load for each frame of the plurality of frames;
- and
- a communication circuit configured to generate a control signal corresponding to a size of the panel load and to transmit the control signal for changing a driving condition of a control circuit to a power management circuit including the control circuit,
- wherein the driving condition of the control circuit includes an adjustment of a number of driven power switches driven in response to the control signal including information on the size of the panel load,
- the adjustment of the number of driven power switches includes:
- a first adjustment for driving a first power switch and for not driving a second power switch in case the size of the panel load is a first value,
- a second adjustment for not driving the first power switch and for driving the second power switch in case the size of the panel load is a second value greater than the first value, and
- a third adjustment for driving both the first power switch and the second power switch in case the size of the panel load is a third value greater than the second value.
