Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the connection principle between DP and non-DP lines of this utility model.

[0032] The video signal input interface is a TYPE-C input interface, which is connected to the TYPE-C port of the mobile phone via a TYPE-C cable.

[0033] DP mobile phone input working principle: When the mobile phone supports DisplayPort output, the TYPE-C on the mobile phone end detects the positive or negative connection of TYPE-C through the CC pin. Through the AUX auxiliary channel, it communicates with the DisplayPort to MIPI DSI chip and completes the protocol communication. The mobile phone outputs DisplayPort audio and video signals with resolutions of 1920x1080 and 3840x1080. After passing through the conversion chip LT8668, the MIPI CSI signal is output to the display screen and the audio signal is output to the power amplifier speaker.

[0034] Working principle of non-DP mobile phone input: When the mobile phone does not support DisplayPort output, the display device is plugged in, the mobile phone enters OTG mode to power the display device, the LT8668 is powered on and working. The LT8668 does not detect the DisplayPort signal, then the GPIO18 and GPIO7 pins of the LT8668 send signals to power on the A110 chip and control the LT8668 to switch the conversion mode from HDMI to MIPI CSI. The GPIO18 pin of the A110 chip controls the switch to control the USB to be connected to the A110. Then, the USB communicates with the A110 chip. The A110 chip converts the received USB audio and video signals into HDMI signals for output. The A110 chip outputs the HDMI signal to the LT8668 for signal conversion, outputting the MIPI CSI video signal to the display screen and the audio signal to the amplifier speaker, realizing the display extension from the mobile phone to the screen.

[0035] In summary, this utility model provides a display device that supports both DisplayPort and non-DisplayPort mobile phone input. Without requiring additional specific interfaces, a single 24-pin Type-C interface enables display input from DP-enabled devices, as well as from phones without DisplayPort functionality. This allows users of phones without DisplayPort to project their displays using Type-C ports for AR glasses and portable screens.
