A method of driving a display device, comprising:
- storing drive data blocks in a drive data block unit;
- fetching the drive data blocks from the drive data block unit;
- storing the drive data blocks in data block setting registers;
- and
- driving the display device using the drive data blocks stored in the data block setting registers, wherein the drive data blocks contain data used in configuring, controlling, sequencing, setting or initializing the display device.
A display device display controller, comprising:
- a program receiver coupled with a host system;
- a data block setting register unit coupled with the program receiver, and configured to store drive data blocks used to drive the display device;
- and
- a chip controller configured to control driving of the display device by fetching a corresponding drive data block from the data block setting register unit in response to an image signal and a control signal corresponding to the image signal provided from the host system.
A display device, comprising:
- a display panel;
- a source driver configured to provide a data signal to a data line of the display panel;
- a gate driver configured to provide a gate signal to a gate line of the display panel;
- a memory configured to store drive data blocks used to drive the display device;
- and
- a display controller configured to store the drive data blocks used to drive the display device in a drive data block unit and configured to control driving of the source driver and the gate driver by fetching the drive data blocks from the drive data block unit in response to an image signal and a control signal corresponding to the image signal provided from a host system.
