Abstract: A display apparatus and a control device and a control method thereof are provided. A controller of the control device controls a gate driver of a display panel. The controller selects a first selected frame and a second selected frame in each frame group, wherein an adjacent position between a first partition and a second partition of the display panel corresponds to a corresponding time point in each frame of the first selected frame and the second selected frame. The controller transmits a reset pulse to the first gate driver at the corresponding time point in the second selected frame to clear a scanning pulse in the gate driver, and cancels the reset pulse at the corresponding time point in the first selected frame. Thus, the control device enables different display partitions of the display panel to have different frame rates or refresh rates.

Abstract: A driver circuit suitable driving a display panel is provided. The driver circuit includes a display driver circuit and a touch driver circuit. The display driver circuit drives the display panel to be operated in a first mode or a second mode. In the first mode, different areas of the display panel have different frame rates. In the second mode, different areas of the display panel have a same frame rate. The touch driver circuit is coupled to the display driver circuit. The touch driver circuit detects a touch event. When the touch driver circuit detects the touch event, the display driver circuit drives the display panel to be switched from the first mode to the second mode.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a driving apparatus including a reordering circuit and a source driving circuit. The reordering circuit can be configured to reorder a plurality of sub-pixel data of an input data string to generate a reordered data string so as to reduce a color switching number associated with a target data line. The source driving circuit can be coupled to the reordering circuit to receive the reordered data string. The source driving circuit can be configured to drive the target data line of a display panel according to the reordered data string.

Abstract: A gate on array circuit for a display device using dual-gate architecture is disclosed. The GOA circuit comprises circuitry configured to, for a first display line of the display device, generate a first gate driving signal and a second gate driving signal for driving a first gate line and a second gate line of the first display line respectively. A first time period when the first gate driving signal is in an activation state for activating the first gate line of the first display line does not overlap with a first time period when the second gate driving signal is in the activation state for activating the second gate line of the first display line.
