    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to power management within a display pipeline (200). The display buffer (114) receives image data (202) through a data transfer interconnect. A data transfer interconnect is powered down based on the display pipeline (200) operating in a scaling mode or in a non-scaling mode. The display buffer (114) transmits at least a portion of the image data to one or more components of the display pipeline (200), and in response to the transmitting, the data transfer interconnect is powered up. In some embodiments, the display buffer (114) includes a plurality of line buffers (310a-x), each configured to store a respective image source line (312). In such an embodiment, a display pipeline (200) configured to render images to be displayed includes the display buffer (114), and the powering down is performed in response to the received image data including two or more image source lines (312).

    Abstract translation: 公开了与显示管道(200)内的电源管理有关的技术。 显示缓冲器(114)通过数据传输互连接收图像数据(202)。 基于以缩放模式或非缩放模式操作的显示管线(200),数据传输互连被断电。 显示缓冲器(114)将图像数据的至少一部分发送到显示管线(200)的一个或多个组件,并且响应于传送,数据传输互连通电。 在一些实施例中,显示缓冲器(114)包括多个行缓冲器(310a-x),每个行缓冲器被配置为存储相应的图像源线(312)。 在这种实施例中,被配置为显示图像的显示管线(200)包括显示缓冲器(114),并且响应于包括两个或多个图像源线(312)的接收到的图像数据执行掉电。
