Abstract:
Charge balanced display data writing methods use write and hold cycles of opposite polarity during selected frame update periods. Spatial dithering of hold cycle signals can reduce flicker.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to voltage-based current sensing. In accordance with one aspect, voltage-based current sensing may include performing a coarse calibration of a voltage based current sensor to determine a coarse offset; performing a fine calibration of the voltage based current sensor to determine a fine offset; performing a frequency calibration of the voltage based current sensor to determine a frequency offset; and performing a transfer function calibration of the voltage based current sensor to determine a sensor transfer function using one or more of the coarse offset, the fine offset and the frequency offset; and measuring a load current using the sensor transfer function.
