Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method of driving a first display element with a first pixel waveform that is a function of a desired color for the first display element and a second waveform; and inserting an added transition into the first pixel waveform to maintain a bias between the first pixel waveform and the second waveform.
Claims29
A method comprising:
- driving a first display element with a first pixel waveform and a second waveform, the first pixel waveform a function of a desired color for the first display element;
- and
- inserting an added transition into the first pixel waveform to maintain a bias between the first pixel waveform and the second waveform.
A method comprising:
- maintaining a bias between a global waveform and a pixel waveform after an end of a refresh period for the global waveform.
A method comprising:
- maintaining a first bias between a first global waveform and a first plurality of pixel waveforms after an end of a first refresh period for the first global waveform;
- and
- maintaining a second bias between a second global waveform and a second plurality of pixel waveforms after an end of a second refresh period for the second global waveform.
An apparatus comprising:
- a signal generator to generate a drive signal for a display element, the signal generator to maintain a bias between a global waveform and the drive signal after an end of a refresh period for the global waveform;
- and
- the display element coupled to the signal generator to receive the drive signal.
An article comprising a machine-accessible storage medium containing instructions that if executed enable a system to:
- maintain a bias between a global waveform and a pixel waveform after an end of a refresh period for the global waveform.
A system comprising:
- a spatial light modulator having at least one pixel to be driven by a pixel waveform and a global waveform;
- a controller to provide a signal to cause an additional transition in the pixel waveform substantially around an end of a refresh period of the global waveform;
- and
- a signal generator to provide the pixel waveform to the at least one pixel.
