Abstract
Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques to partition a display interface such that pixel data associated with display data having indications of an image to be displayed may be transmitted to multiple timing controller and driver (TCON-DR) sets over the display interface without necessitating each TCON-DR set receive all the pixel data. In some examples, the display interface may be partitioned such that each TCON-DR set receives only the pixel data for which the respective TCON-DR set corresponds to.
Claims25
A controller to partition a display interface, the controller comprising:
- logic at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to:
- group a plurality of pixels into two or more groups of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on a display device;
- and
- assign one or more display interface lanes of a plurality of display interface lanes to each of the two or more groups of pixels, the plurality of display interface lanes configured to communicate display data to the display device, the display data including indications of an image to be displayed by the display device.
At least one machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- acquire display data, the display data including indications of an image to be displayed by a display device;
- group a plurality of pixels into two or more groups of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on the display device;
- and
- assign one or more display interface lanes of a plurality of display interface lanes to each of the two or more groups of pixels, the plurality of display interface lanes configured to communicate the display data to the display device.
The at least one machine-readable storage medium of claim 19, wherein the display device is a first display device, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on either the first display device or a second display device.
A processor to partition a display interface, the processor comprising:
- logic at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to:
- group a plurality of pixels into two or more groups of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on either a first display device or a second display device;
- and
- assign one or more display interface lanes of a plurality of display interface lanes to each of the two or more groups of pixels, the plurality of display interface lanes configured to communicate display data to the first and second display devices, the display data including indications of an image to be displayed by the first and second display devices.
At least one machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- group a plurality of pixels into two or more groups of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on either a first display device or a second display device;
- and
- assign one or more display interface lanes of a plurality of display interface lanes to each of the two or more groups of pixels, the plurality of display interface lanes configured to communicate display data to the first and second display devices, the display data including indications of an image to be displayed by the first and second display devices.
A system to partition a display interface, the system comprising:
- logic a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to:
- group a plurality of pixels into two or more groups of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels corresponding to an addressable point on either a first display device or a second display device;
- and
- assign one or more display interface lanes of a plurality of display interface lanes to each of the two or more groups of pixels, the plurality of display interface lanes configured to communicate display data to the first and second display devices, the display data including indications of an image to be displayed by the first and second display devices.
