[0003] Micro LED (micro light-emitting diode) display refers to a display technology that utilizes micron-sized LED pixel units and bonds them to a driver panel to form a high-density LED display array. Due to the small size, high integration, and self-luminescence of Micro LED chips, they offer significant advantages over LCDs (liquid crystal displays) and OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes) in terms of brightness, resolution, contrast, energy consumption, lifespan, response speed, and thermal stability. Early LED display pixels were composed of LEDs using the three primary colors of red, green, and blue (R / G / B).
[0004] The Micro LED micro display panel includes a pixel array, a row driver, a column driver, a display controller, and a frame buffer. The row driver and the column driver are electrically connected to the pixel array, the frame buffer is electrically connected to the pixel array, and the display controller is electrically connected to the row driver, the column driver, and the frame buffer. The frame buffer has several storage areas that can store a complete frame of pixel grayscale values; each pixel in the pixel array also has several pixel storage areas for storing pixel grayscale data. When the Micro LED micro display panel needs to display a picture, a complete frame of pixel grayscale values is loaded into the frame buffer, and then the column driver drives the pixel grayscale values to the pixel storage area of the pixel array, controlling the row driver to scan the grayscale data stored in the pixel storage area of the pixel array to achieve the purpose of displaying different grayscales.

However, the data driving process requires a certain amount of time. During this period, if random values appear in the second pixel storage area after power-on, it will still affect the picture display quality.

[0050] As mentioned in the background art, there are still many problems with Micro LED micro display panels in the prior art, which will be explained in detail below.
[0051] During the operation of existing Micro LED micro-display panels, when the frame buffer and the pixel storage area under the pixel array are powered on again after a power outage, different potentials will be generated due to interference from the manufacturing process, the external electromagnetic environment, etc., resulting in randomized storage values, causing abnormal display of the pixel array and, in turn, abnormal screen display problems.
[0052] On this basis, the present invention provides a data transmission method for a micro-display panel, a micro-display system, a micro-display panel, and a near-eye display device. By clearing the data in a preset storage area when the micro-display panel is powered on, the problem of abnormal screen display caused by random values appearing in the preset storage area after power-on is avoided, thereby improving the quality of the screen display.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1, a data transmission method for a micro display panel includes step S10: responding to power-on of the micro display panel 10; step S11: clearing data in a preset storage area of the micro display panel 10; step S12: after the data is cleared, transmitting pixel grayscale data to the micro display panel.
[0057] By clearing the data in the preset storage area when the micro display panel 10 is powered on, the problem of abnormal screen display caused by random values appearing in the preset storage area after power-on is avoided, such as bright spots, bright lines or screen distortion of varying degrees, etc., so that the micro display panel 10 can remain in a completely dark state after power-on, so that the displayed screen meets expectations, thereby improving the quality of the screen display.
[0058] In some embodiments, the micro display panel 10 is a Micro LED micro display panel.
[0059] Referring to Figures 2 to 4 , in some embodiments, a microdisplay panel 10 includes a frame buffer 101 and a pixel array 102. The frame buffer 101 includes a first pixel storage area 1011, and the pixel array 102 includes a plurality of pixels 1021. Each pixel 1021 includes an electrically connected light-emitting unit 10211 and a second pixel storage area 10212. The frame buffer 101 is electrically connected to the pixel array 102 via a driving circuit, and data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 can be driven to the second pixel storage area 10212.
[0060] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 , and in conjunction with FIG. 5 , in some embodiments, clearing the data in the preset storage area of the micro display panel 10 in step S11 includes step S111a of clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro display panel 10. Since the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 will be driven to the second pixel storage area 10212, the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 will eventually be cleared to improve the quality of the image display.
[0061] Continuing to refer to Figures 2 to 4 , and in conjunction with Figure 6 , in some embodiments, clearing the data in the preset storage area of the microdisplay panel 10 in step S11 includes step S111b: clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10, and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10. Since the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 will be driven to the second pixel storage area 10212, the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 will also be cleared after the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 is cleared. However, the data driving process takes a certain amount of time, and during this period, if the second pixel storage area 10212 displays random values after power-on, it will still affect the display quality. Therefore, by simultaneously clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 and the second pixel storage area 10212, data can be updated quickly, avoiding the problem of abnormal screen display when the frame buffer 101 drives the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10212.
[0062] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4. In some embodiments, the micro display panel 10 also includes: a display controller 103, a row driving circuit 104 and a column driving circuit 105. The row driving circuit 104 and the column driving circuit 105 are electrically connected to the pixel array 102 respectively, and the column driving circuit 105 is also electrically connected to the frame buffer 101. The display controller 103 is electrically connected to the row driving circuit 104 and the column driving circuit 105. The display controller 103 is used to control the column driving circuit 105 to drive the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10212, and to control the row driving circuit 104 to scan the data in the second pixel storage area 10212. During the operation of the micro display panel 10, a complete frame of pixel grayscale values sent from the host computer 30 (only shown in Figure 4) can be loaded into the first pixel storage area 1011 in the frame buffer 101, and then the column driving circuit 105 drives the pixel grayscale value to the second pixel storage area 10212 under the pixel array 102. The row driving circuit 104 scans the second pixel storage area 10212 to generate a pulse modulation signal to achieve the purpose of displaying different grayscales.
[0063] Continuing with Figures 2 to 4 , in some embodiments, frame buffer 101 utilizes static random-access memory (SRAM). The term "static" refers to the fact that the data stored in this memory remains permanently as long as power is supplied. Frame buffer 101 is made of a volatile storage medium that loses power. The data stored in the SRAM disappears when power is lost. SRAM offers advantages such as high speed, high bandwidth, and ease of control, and is often used as a cache.
[0064] Continuing to refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 5 , and in conjunction with FIG. 7 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared by a clearing module 20 disposed within the microdisplay panel 10. Therefore, the corresponding step S111a for clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 includes step S1111a1: clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 by the clearing module 20 disposed within the microdisplay panel 10. The clearing module 20 needs to be electrically connected to the frame buffer 101; in some embodiments, the clearing module 20 is a clearing register disposed within the microdisplay panel 10.
[0065] Continuing to refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 6 , in conjunction with FIG. 8 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared by a clearing module 20 configured within the microdisplay panel 10. Therefore, the corresponding steps of clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 in step S111b include step S1111b1: clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 by the clearing module 20 configured within the microdisplay panel 10. The corresponding clearing module 20 needs to be electrically connected to the frame buffer 101 and the pixel array 102, respectively. In some embodiments, the clearing module 20 is a clearing register configured within the microdisplay panel 10.
[0066] Continuing to refer to Figures 4 and 5 , and in conjunction with Figure 9 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared in response to a clear instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10. The clear instruction is sent by the host computer 30 to the microdisplay panel 10, and the host computer 30 sends the clear instruction to the microdisplay panel 10 when the microdisplay panel 10 is powered on. Therefore, the clearing of the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 in step S111a includes step S1111a2: clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 in response to the clear instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10. The corresponding microdisplay panel 10 needs to be communicatively connected to the host computer 30.
[0067] Continuing to refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 , in conjunction with FIG. 10 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared in response to a clear instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10. The clear instruction is sent by the host computer 30 to the microdisplay panel 10, and the host computer 30 sends the clear instruction to the microdisplay panel 10 when the microdisplay panel 10 is powered on. Therefore, the clearing of the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and the clearing of the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 in step S111b includes step S1111b2: clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and the clearing of the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 in response to the clear instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10. The corresponding microdisplay panel 10 needs to be communicatively connected to the host computer 30.
[0068] Continuing with FIG. 7 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10.

Therefore, corresponding to clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 in step S111a, the method further includes step S1112a1: during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10, clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 by a clearing module 20 configured within the micro-display panel 10.
[0069] Continuing with FIG8 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10. The method for the micro-display panel 10 to execute the initialization procedure includes: executing the initialization procedure in response to an initialization instruction received by the micro-display panel 10, the initialization instruction being sent to the micro-display panel 10 by the host computer 30, and the host computer 30 sending the initialization instruction to the micro-display panel 10 when the micro-display panel 10 is powered on. Therefore, the steps corresponding to clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the micro-display panel 10 in step S111b include step S1112b1: during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10, clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the micro-display panel 10 by the clearing module 20 configured in the micro-display panel 10.
[0070] Continuing with FIG9 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10.

Therefore, the step corresponding to clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 in step S111a includes step S1112a2: during the execution of the initialization procedure by the micro-display panel 10, clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the micro-display panel 10 in response to the clear instruction received by the micro-display panel 10.
[0071] Continuing with FIG. 10 , in some embodiments, the data in the preset storage area in step S11 is cleared during the execution of the initialization procedure by the microdisplay panel 10. The method for the microdisplay panel 10 to execute the initialization procedure includes: executing the initialization procedure in response to an initialization instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10, the initialization instruction being sent to the microdisplay panel 10 by the host computer 30, and the host computer 30 sending the initialization instruction to the microdisplay panel 10 when the microdisplay panel 10 is powered on. Therefore, the steps corresponding to clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 in step S111b include step S1112b2: during the execution of the initialization procedure by the microdisplay panel 10, clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 of the microdisplay panel 10 and clearing the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 of the pixel array 102 of the microdisplay panel 10 in response to the clear instruction received by the microdisplay panel 10.
[0072] In step S12 : after the data is cleared, the pixel grayscale data is transmitted to the micro display panel for normal display of the micro display panel.

[0074] When the micro display panel 10 is powered on, the data in the preset storage area is cleared by the clearing module 20 to avoid the problem of abnormal screen display caused by random values appearing in the preset storage area after power-on, thereby improving the quality of screen display.
[0075] 2 and 3 , in some embodiments, the clearing module 20 is a clearing register configured in the micro display panel 10 .
[0076] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 and 3. In some embodiments, the micro display system also includes: a host computer (not shown) that is communicatively connected to the micro display panel 10, and an initialization module (not shown) is provided in the host computer; the host computer is used to control the initialization module to send an initialization instruction to the micro display panel 10 when the micro display panel 10 is powered on, so that the micro display panel 10 executes the initialization program, and the clearing module 20 clears the data in the preset storage area during the execution of the initialization program by the micro display panel 10.
[0077] Please continue to refer to Figure 4. In some embodiments, the micro display system also includes: a host computer 30 that is communicatively connected to the micro display panel 10, and the clearing module 20 is configured in the host computer 30. The host computer 30 is used to control the clearing module 20 to send a clearing instruction to the micro display panel 10 when the micro display panel 10 is powered on, so as to clear the data in the preset storage area.
[0078] Please continue to refer to Figure 4. In some embodiments, the micro display system also includes: an initialization module (not shown) configured in the host computer 30, and the host computer 30 is used to control the initialization module to send an initialization instruction to the micro display panel 10 when the micro display panel 10 is powered on, so that the micro display panel 10 executes the initialization program, and the clearing module 20 clears the data in the preset storage area during the execution of the initialization program by the micro display panel 10.
[0079] Please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4. In some embodiments, the micro display panel also includes: a frame buffer 101, including a first pixel storage area 1011; a pixel array 102, electrically connected to the frame buffer 101, including a plurality of pixel points 1021, each pixel point 1021 including a light-emitting unit 10211 and a second pixel storage area 10212 electrically connected to each other; wherein the frame buffer 101 is used to drive data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10212.
[0080] Continuing with reference to FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 , in some embodiments, the preset storage area includes a first pixel storage area 1011, and the corresponding clearing module 20 needs to be electrically connected to the frame buffer 101 (as shown in FIG. 2 ). Since the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 of the frame buffer 101 will be driven to the second pixel storage area 10212, the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 will eventually be cleared to improve the quality of the image display.
[0081] Please continue to refer to Figures 3 and 4. In some embodiments, the preset storage area includes: a first pixel storage area 1011 and a second pixel storage area 10212. The corresponding clearing module 20 needs to be electrically connected to the frame buffer 101 and the pixel array 102 respectively (as shown in Figure 3).

Therefore, by simultaneously clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 and the second pixel storage area 10212, data updating can be made fast, avoiding the problem of abnormal picture display during the process of the frame buffer 101 driving the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10212.
[0082] Correspondingly, a micro display panel is also provided in an embodiment of the present invention, please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 3, including: a pixel array 102, including a plurality of pixel points 1021, each pixel point 1021 including a light-emitting unit 10211 and a second pixel storage area 10212 electrically connected to each other; a frame buffer 101, electrically connected to the pixel array 102, including a first pixel storage area 1011, the frame buffer 101 is used to drive the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10211; a clearing module 20, the clearing module 20 is at least electrically connected to the frame buffer 101, and in response to the micro display panel 10 being powered on, is used to clear the pixel grayscale data in the first pixel storage area 1011.
[0083] When the micro display panel 10 is powered on, the data in the preset storage area is cleared by the clearing module 20 to avoid the problem of abnormal screen display caused by random values appearing in the preset storage area after power-on, thereby improving the quality of screen display.
[0084] Continuing with reference to FIG3 , in some embodiments, the clearing module 20 is further electrically connected to the pixel array 102 and, in response to powering on the micro display panel 10, is further configured to clear the pixel grayscale data in the second pixel storage area 10212. Since the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 is driven to the second pixel storage area 10212, after the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 is cleared, the data in the second pixel storage area 10212 is also cleared. However, the data driving process takes a certain amount of time, and during this period, if random values appear in the second pixel storage area 10212 after powering on, the image display quality will still be affected. Therefore, by simultaneously clearing the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 and the second pixel storage area 10212, data updates can be accelerated, avoiding the problem of abnormal image display during the process of the frame buffer 101 driving the data in the first pixel storage area 1011 to the second pixel storage area 10212.
