Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of display modules, in particular to a dynamic switching refresh frequency structure for preventing display modules from being torn. Background Art

[0002] AMOLED displays are widely used in smart watches and smart bracelets in the current market. Smart watches are consumer products with great cost pressure. Therefore, during the use of the platform, MIPI solutions and high-speed platform solutions will not be used. Instead, low-cost QSPI solutions will be used. Due to the slow data transmission speed of the QSPI solution and the relationship between the picture UI, the screen self-refresh frequency may not reach 60HZ, and may be 50HZ, 40HZ or 30HZ, etc. In addition, the QSPI data transmission speed is slow and the amount of UI picture data varies, resulting in a lot of time required to transmit the entire UI picture. In this way, the mismatch between a frame of data transmission and the screen self-refresh frequency will cause tearing stripes on the screen when it is displayed. This often leads to poor display effects, affecting customer experience and increasing the difficulty of product development. Utility Model Content

The drawings provide preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art in the technical field of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1As shown, a dynamic switching refresh frequency structure for preventing display module tearing includes: a mainboard 1, a display IC2 and a display screen 3; the mainboard 1 is provided with a flash module 11, a TCON module 12, a mainboard RAM module 13 and a QSPI module 14; the display IC2 is provided with a display RAM module 21, a frequency gear module 22 and a data transmission module 23; the frequency gear module 22 is provided with four frequency gears: 60 Hz, 50 Hz, 40 Hz and 30 Hz. It should be noted that after the pictures are synthesized into a complete UI display, they will be placed in the flash module 11 first. What kind of pictures need to be displayed on the display screen 3 will be stored in the flash module 11 first and extracted when needed. For example, if a single UI1 picture a is displayed on the display screen 3, or if a, b and c are synthesized to display UI2, and a, b, c, d and e are synthesized to display UI3, the data volume of UI1, UI2 and UI3 will be different. After UI1, UI2 and UI3 are respectively placed in the mainboard RAM module 13 on the platform IC and synthesized, they are placed in the QSPI module 14 for transmission. Because the number of UI1, UI2 and UI3 is different, and the transmission speed of the QSPI module 14 is constant, the data volume of UI1, UI2 and UI3 is different. CON module 12 is used to calculate the total time required to send UI1, UI2 and UI3, so as to know the time required for one frame of picture. For example, if the transmission speed data is 320*360*24=2764800, and the time required is 16.7ms, then the frequency gear module 22 requires the display IC2 frequency to be 60HZ. If the UI3 data is 5529600, then the time required is 33.4ms, so the gear requires the display IC2 frequency to be 30HZ, so that the time required for UI to be sent can be obtained on TCON module 12. In this way, our display screen 3 can automatically switch the refresh frequency according to the data requirements of the UI picture when displaying, so that the display screen 3 will not have tearing stripes.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the mainboard 1 and the display IC 2 are connected to each other through a metal PIN, and the display IC 2 and the display screen 3 are connected to each other through a metal PIN. It should be noted that this design allows the mainboard 1 to control and transmit information to the display IC 2, and the display IC 2 can transmit data to the display screen 3 for display.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment, the flash module 11 is connected to the mainboard RAM module 13 for communication, and the mainboard RAM module 13 is connected to the TCON module 12 for communication. The QSPI module 14 is connected to the TCON module 12 and the mainboard RAM module 13 for communication. The display RAM module 21 is connected to the frequency gear module 22 and the data transmission module 23 for data. The QSPI module 14 is connected to the frequency gear module 22 and the data transmission module 23 for unidirectional data. The data transmission module 23 is connected to the display screen 3 for unidirectional data. It should be noted that before the platform sends the UI picture data to be displayed, a gear setting requirement is issued first to explain why the next UI picture needs to be refreshed. For example, UI1 needs to be refreshed at 60HZ, and UI3 needs to be switched to 30HZ for refresh. In this way, the display screen 3 can automatically switch the refresh frequency according to the data requirements of the UI picture when displaying, making the application more convenient, and no tearing stripes will appear, thereby improving the customer product experience effect.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the flash module 11, the TCON module 12, the mainboard RAM module 13 and the QSPI module 14 are all arranged in the IC chip of the mainboard 1. It should be noted that this design can minimize the space used for the mainboard 1.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the shape and size of the display screen 3 are designed according to market requirements, and its conventional design scheme is circular and rectangular. It should be noted that the conventional design of the display screen 3 is circular and rectangular.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown in an embodiment, the mainboard 1 is electrically connected to the power supply. It should be noted that this design allows the mainboard 1 to provide power to the display IC 2 and the display screen 3.

[0030] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
