Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional MIPI Display Serial Interface technologies are prone to errors and abnormal display operations due to noise interference during data transmission, which can cause incorrect data to be written into the function register, leading to inaccurate display device configurations.

Innovation Solution

A serial interface packet information detection and control method that includes a receiver with a de-packaging circuit, control circuit, and functional device, which generates a control signal based on packet information to enable or disable the function register's writing function, preventing errors from being written into the register and enhancing noise protection during transmission.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the function register remains enabled during data transmission, then the display device can respond to commands promptly, but noise interference may cause errors to be written into the function register, causing abnormal display operations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprotection against noise interferenceVSAvoidresponse time of display device
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The control circuit determines the packet type before the payload is fully received and disables the function register in advance if it's a non-command packet. This preliminary action prevents potential noise-induced errors from being written to the function register while maintaining quick response for actual command packets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The function register's writing capability is dynamically controlled based on packet type. The control circuit adjusts the enable/disable state of the function register according to whether the incoming packet is a command packet or not, optimizing both reliability and response time adaptively.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Reliability

If the function register is disabled during transmission, then protection against noise is enhanced, but legitimate commands may be delayed or missed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprevention of error writingVSAvoiddata transmission efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system determines packet type from the header before the full packet is received and disables the function register in advance only for non-command packets. This preliminary determination ensures that legitimate commands are not delayed while still providing protection against noise for data packets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The control circuit continuously monitors incoming packet headers and provides feedback control to the function register enable/disable state. This feedback mechanism ensures the function register is disabled only when necessary (for non-command packets) while remaining enabled for commands, optimizing both reliability and transmission efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
