    Abstract: Methods and devices for reducing the power consumption of a frame buffer (88) and timing controller (78) of an electronic display (18) are provided. By way of example, a method of operating an electronic display (18) includes receiving image data from a processor (12) of the electronic display (18), storing the image data to a buffer (88) of the electronic display (18), reading the image data from the buffer (88) to supply the image data to a column driver (64) of the electronic display (18), determining whether an amount of image data stored in buffer (88) is less than a threshold, and switching from reading the image data from the buffer (88) to reading the image data directly from the processor (12) when the amount of image data stored in buffer (88) is less than the threshold.

    Abstract: Devices and methods for reducing and/or substantially eliminating pixel charge imbalance due to variable refresh rates are provided. By way of example, a method includes providing a first frame of image data via a processor to a plurality of pixels of the display during a first frame period corresponding to a first refresh rate, and providing a second frame of image data to the plurality of pixels of the display during a second frame period corresponding to a second refresh rate. The method further includes dividing the first frame period into a first frame sub-period and a second frame sub-period, and driving the plurality of pixels of the display with the first frame of image data during the first frame sub-period and the second frame sub-period.

    Abstract: One embodiment describes an electronic display that displays image frames with a first refresh rate or a second refresh rate, in which the second refresh rate is lower than the first refresh rate; a display driver that writes the image frames by applying voltage to a display panel; and a timing controller that receives first image data from an image source, in which the first image data describes a first image frame and a first desired refresh rate equal to the second fresh rate; and that instructs the display driver to apply a first set of voltage polarities to the display panel to display first image frame at the first refresh rate and to apply a second set of voltage polarities to the display the first image frame at the second refresh rate when polarity of inversion imbalance accumulated is equal to polarity of the first set of voltage polarities.

    Abstract: A display may have a pixel array such as a liquid crystal pixel array. The pixel array may be illuminated by a backlight unit that includes an array of light-emitting diodes. A backlight brightness selection circuit may select brightness values for the light-emitting diodes. The backlight brightness selection circuit may select the brightness values based on image data, based on brightness values used in previous image frames, based on device information, and/or based on sensor information. The backlight brightness selection circuit may select the backlight brightness levels to mitigate visible artifacts such as flickering and halo. The backlight levels selected by the backlight brightness selection may be modified by a power consumption compensation circuit. The power consumption compensation circuit may estimate the amount of power consumption required to operate the backlight using the target brightness levels and may modify the target brightness levels to meet maximum power consumption requirements.
