A summary of certain embodiments disclosed herein is set forth below. It should be understood that these aspects are presented merely to provide the reader with a brief summary of these certain embodiments and that these aspects are not intended to limit the scope of this disclosure. Indeed, this disclosure may encompass a variety of aspects that may not be set forth below.
Methods and systems for reducing visual artifacts caused by defective memory circuitry of a memory-in-pixel electronic display may provide immense value. The techniques described herein may provide for various rerouting schemes to adjust how image data is stored in the memory of the memory-in-pixel electronic display before being used to drive a pixel to emit light. That is, image data may initially be stored as data values in memory-in-pixels prior to being used to drive the respective pixels. With this in mind, in response to a memory component of a memory-in-pixel being inaccessible (e.g., defective), other memory circuitry may be used to reduce the effects of the defective memory component. For example, the memory component corresponding to the defective memory circuitry may be replaced by another memory component, such as a back-up memory component of the memory-in-pixel, and the image data may be rerouted to the respective pixel via the replacement memory component.
In some cases, pixel data may be stored in memory components as respective bits of data. In this way, one bit may be stored per memory component. Since each memory component stores one bit, when any of the memory components are defective, the replacement memory component may act as substitute bit storage for the defective memory component without observable loss of performance. For example, the memory component for the least significant bit of a pixel may be mapped to the defective memory component to replace the defective memory component, and thus reduce the effects of the defective memory component. In other embodiments, a spare memory component may be used to replace a defective memory component, thereby reducing the appearance of visual artifacts due to the inability of the pixel to display image data via the defective memory component.
As such, this disclosure describes an electronic display having one or more pixels that include memory, or a memory-in-pixel electronic display, and techniques for rerouting image data for the one or more pixels based on defective memory of the electronic display. The inclusion of the rerouting may enable usage of the memory-in-pixel electronic display even while defective memory remains within the memory-in-pixel electronic display. In this way, the rerouting may reduce or eliminate visual artifacts caused by defective memory of the memory-in-pixel electronic display.
Various aspects of this disclosure may be better understood upon reading the following detailed description and upon reference to the drawings in which:
One or more specific embodiments will be described below. In an effort to provide a concise description of these embodiments, not all features of an actual implementation are described in the specification. It should be appreciated that in the development of any such actual implementation, as in any engineering or design project, numerous implementation-specific decisions are made to achieve the developers' specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and business-related constraints, which may vary from one implementation to another. Moreover, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of design, fabrication, and manufacture for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure.
When introducing elements of various embodiments of the present disclosure, the articles “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to mean that there are one or more of the elements. The terms “comprising,” “including,” and “having” are intended to be inclusive and mean that there may be additional elements other than the listed elements. Additionally, it should be understood that references to “one embodiment” or “an embodiment” of the present disclosure are not intended to be interpreted as excluding the existence of additional embodiments that also incorporate the recited features.
The present disclosure relates generally to techniques for implementing memory in pixels of an electronic display and, more specifically, correction techniques for defective memory circuitry. Electronic displays are found in numerous electronic devices, from mobile phones to computers, televisions, automobile dashboards, and many more. Electronic displays have achieved increasingly higher resolutions by reducing individual pixel size, but these increasing resolutions may increase a bandwidth used to communicate image data from the processing circuitry to a pixel array for presentation of the image, since more image data is used to communicate the same image at a higher electronic display resolution.
To correct for this, memory may be included in electronic display, such as in pixels of the electronic display, and may enable the electronic display to reduce its reliance on a frame buffer to store image data to be depicted via the pixels. Having memory in the pixels may lessen the design complexity of electronic displays, as well, because the less image data that is concurrently transmitted to a pixel array of an electronic display, the simpler an electronic display may be designed. However, the use of memory-in-pixels may increase the risk of perceivable visual artifacts due to the memory components of certain pixels becoming defective, corrupted, or inaccessible. Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to correction techniques for minimizing the impact of defective memory circuitry of a memory-in-pixel electronic display.
A memory-in-pixel electronic display may include multiple pixels and multiple memory circuits to temporarily store image data before using the image data to drive the pixels. Including memory in the pixels may reduce transmission bandwidths of image data to pixel arrays for display because the pixel may store image data in the respective memory. In this way, a reliance on frame buffers to temporarily store the image data external to the pixel is reduced because the pixel has its own memory to store its own image data prior to display of the image data.
Memory may be implemented in pixel circuitry that includes a light-emitting diode (LED). An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) represents one type of light-emitting device that may be found in the pixel, but other types of LEDs or other light-emitting or modulating components may be used in the pixel circuitry as a light-emitting device, such as components to support liquid crystal displays (LCDs), plasma display panels, dot-matrix displays, or the like.
A general description of suitable electronic devices that may include a memory-in-pixel electronic display that uses rerouting techniques to work around any defective memory circuitry and that displays images through emission of light from light-emitting components, such as a LED (e.g., an OLED) display, or through emission of light from light-modulating components, such as liquid-crystal on silicon
(LCOS) devices or digital micro-minor (DMD) devices, and corresponding circuitry are provided in this disclosure. It should be understood that a variety of electronic devices, electronic displays, and electronic display technologies may be used to implement the techniques described here. One example of a suitable electronic device is shown in
The processing core complex 12 of the electronic device 10 may perform various data processing operations, including generating and processing image data for display on the electronic display 18, in combination with the storage device(s) 14. For example, instructions that are executed by the processing core complex 12 may be stored on the storage device(s) 14. The storage device(s) 14 may include volatile memory, non-volatile memory, or a combination thereof. By way of example, the storage device(s) 14 may include random-access memory, read-only memory, flash memory, a hard drive, and so forth.
The electronic device 10 may use the communication interface(s) 16 to communicate with various other electronic devices or elements. The communication interface(s) 16 may include input/output (I/O) interfaces and/or network interfaces. Such network interfaces may include those for a personal area network (PAN) such as Bluetooth, a local area network (LAN) or wireless local area network (WLAN) such as Wi-Fi, and/or for a wide area network (WAN), such as a cellular network.
Using pixels containing light-emitting components (e.g., LEDs, OLEDs), the electronic display 18 may show images generated by the processing core complex 12. The electronic display 18 may include touchscreen functionality for users to interact with a user interface appearing on the electronic display 18. Input structures 20 may also enable a user to interact with the electronic device 10. In some examples, the input structures 20 may represent hardware buttons, which may include volume buttons or a hardware keypad. The power supply 22 may include any suitable source of power for the electronic device 10. This may include a battery within the electronic device 10 and/or a power conversion device to accept alternating current (AC) power from a power outlet.
As may be appreciated, the electronic device 10 may take a number of different forms. As shown in
The electronic device 10 may also take the form of a tablet device 40, as is shown in
A computer 48 represents another form that the electronic device 10 may take. For illustrative purposes, the tablet device 40 may be any MacBook® model available from Apple Inc. It should be appreciated that the electronic device 10 may also take the form of any other computer, including a desktop computer. The computer 48 shown in
In any case, as described above, operating an electronic device 10 to communicate information by displaying images on its electronic display 18 generally consumes electrical power. Additionally, as described above, electronic devices 10 often store a finite amount of electrical energy. Thus, to facilitate improving power consumption efficiency, an electronic device 10, in some embodiments, may include an electronic display 18 that implements memory-in-pixel as a way to reduce, or eliminate, use of an external frame buffer in displaying images, and thus reducing power consumed by use of the frame buffer in displaying images and/or reducing a bandwidth of image data being received into the electronic display 18. In some cases, an internal frame buffer (e.g., located in the electronic display 18, such as in a display driver integrated circuit of the electronic display 18) may be used in lieu of or in addition to memory-in-pixel techniques. By implementing memory-in-pixel or related techniques, an electronic display 18 may be programmed with smaller bandwidths of image data, further enabling power consumption savings. In addition, an electronic display 18 using memory in the pixel or in an onboard frame buffer may have a less complex design than an electronic display 18 without memory in the pixel or without an onboard frame buffer. These benefits may be realized because a pixel retains data transmitted to its memory until new image data is written to the memory.
Similarly, portions of image data may program a subset of pixels associated with the electronic display 18. An image to be displayed is typically converted into numerical data, or image data, so that the image is interpretable by components of the electronic display 18. In this way, image data itself may be divided into small “pixel” portions, each of which may correspond to a pixel portion of the electronic display 18, or of a display panel corresponding to the electronic display 18. In some embodiments, image data is represented through combinations of red-green-blue light such that one pixel appearing to have a single color is really three sub-pixels respectively emitting a proportion of red, green, and blue light to create the single color. In this way, numerical values, or image data, that quantify the combinations of red-green-blue light may correspond to a digital luminance level, or a gray level, that associates a luminance intensity (e.g., a brightness) of a color of the image data for those particular sub-pixels.
As will be appreciated, the number of gray levels in an image usually depends on a number of bits used to represent the gray levels in a particular electronic display 18, which may be expressed as 2N gray levels where N corresponds to the number of bits used to represent the gray levels. By way of example, in an embodiment where an electronic display 18 uses 8 bits to represent gray levels, the gray level ranges from 0, for black or no light, to 255, for maximum light and/or full light, for a total of 256 potential gray levels. Similarly, an electronic display 18 using 6 bits may use 64 gray levels to represent a luminance intensity for each sub-pixel.
Having memory in the pixels of an electronic display 18 enables image data to transmit to sub-pixels associated with one color without image data having to transmit to additional sub-pixels associated with a second color at the same time. For the purposes of this disclosure, sub-pixels are discussed in terms of red-green-blue color channels, where a color channel is a layer of image data including gray levels for a single color where, when combined with additional color channels, creates an image of a true, or desired, color, and where the image data for a color channel corresponds to image data transmitted to a sub-pixel for the color channel. However, it should be understood that any combination of color channels and/or sub-pixels may be used, such as, blue-green-red, cyan-magenta-yellow, and/or cyan-magenta-yellow-black.
In preparing to display an image, the display system 50 may receive the image data 56 at the timing controller 54. The timing controller 54 may receive and use the image data 56 to determine clock signals and control signals to control a provision of the image data 56 to the pixel array 66 through the column driver 62 and the row driver 60. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the image data 56 is received by the frame buffer 58.
In either case, the frame buffer 58 may serve as external storage for the timing controller 54 to store the image data 56 prior to output to the column driver 62 and/or the row driver 60. The timing controller 54 may transmit the image data 56 from the frame buffer 58 to the column driver 62 and/or the row driver 60 through the communicative link 64.
In some embodiments, the communicative link 64 is large enough (e.g., determined through transmission bandwidth of image data) to simultaneously transmit image data 56 associated with all the channels to the row driver 60 and/or the column driver 62, for example, the image data 56 associated with a red channel, a green channel, and a blue channel. In this way, the communicative link 64 communicates the image data 56 associated with a respective pixel of the pixel array 66 for the red channel, the green channel, and the blue channel. The column driver 62 and the row driver 60 may transmit control signals based on the image data 56 to the pixel array 66. In response to the control signals, the pixel array 66 emits light at varying luminosities or brightness levels, as indicated through gray levels (e.g., 0 to 255) to communicate an image.
The display system 52 receives the image data 56 at the timing controller 54. The timing controller 54 may use the image data 56 to determine clock signals used to provision the image data 56 to the memory-in-pixel pixel array 69. The timing controller 54 transmits the image data 56 to the row driver 60 and/or the column driver 62 to program the memory of the pixel array 69 with digital data signals associated with the image data 56, where the digital data signals indicate the emission brightness/gray level for the pixels of the pixel array 69.
By implementing memory-in-pixel systems and methods, power consumption of the electronic device 10 may decrease because memory-in-pixel techniques may enable storing and retrieving of data in the frame buffer 58 to be bypassed. In some embodiments, power consumption may be further reduced because memory-in-pixel circuitry may retain data that does not change between presented images, thus reducing an overall number of pixel data loading cycles.
The depicted sub-pixel 72 may emit according to a pulse width emission scheme. Image data 98 transmits to the memory 78, for example, from a column driver 62, for storage. Additionally or alternatively, image data 98, image data 56, or any suitable image data may be transmitted to the memory 78 for storage. In some embodiments, the image data 98 may be clocked into the memory 78 by the data clock 116, for example, on a rising edge of the data clock 116. The image data 98 communicated to the sub-pixel 72 may correspond to a desired gray level at which the respective sub-pixel 72 is to emit light.
Using the image data 98 stored in the memory 78, the comparator 132 determines if a current number represented by a sequence of bits generated by the counter 130 is less than or equal to the image data 98 in memory 78. In other words, the counter 130 counts up to the number indicated by the image data 98 (e.g., numerical gray level) and, in response to the number represented by the counter 130 meeting a condition (e.g., smaller than or equal to the number indicated by the image data 98), the comparator 132 outputs a control signal (MTCH) to close the switch 104. When the condition is not met, the comparator 132 does not output a control signal and opens the switch 104. Additionally or alternatively, the comparator 132 may enable a deactivation control signal to cause the opening of the switch 104. For instance, if the memory 78 stores a binary sequence of 10110101 corresponding to the number 181, the comparator 132 may check if the counter 130 has counted to the number 181, and when the counter 130 exceeds the number 181, the comparator 132 transmits a control signal (MTCH) to open the switch 104 thus preventing the LED 103 from emitting light.
When the switch 104 closes, an electrical connection is created between the common voltage 110 and the first reference voltage 112. This causes current from current source 102 to transmit through the LED 103 causing light to emit from the sub-pixel 72. Thus, emission periods of the sub-pixel 72 may be varied to control a perceived light emitted from the sub-pixel 72 through changing a number indicated by the image data 98. Additionally or alternatively, in some embodiments, the second reference voltage 114 is included to alter an overall current value used to control light emitted from the LED 103. For instance, the second reference voltage 114 may increase a sensitivity of the LED 103 to current changes, such that a lower current value may be used to cause light to emit from the LED 103.
The counter 130 counts from a minimum value to a maximum value, and increments through the range based on a gray level clock 134. Periods of the gray level clock 134 thus may cause the time difference between increments of the gray level. The sub-pixel 72 may follow a pulse width emission scheme. A representation of an emission of light from a sub-pixel 72 following a pulse width emission scheme is shown in graph 136. The graph 136 includes an actual emission period 138 and a total emission period 140, where the duration of the actual emission period 138 may be based on the value of the image data 98 from the counter 130. The total emission period 140 corresponds to a total length of emission and thus a maximum brightness of light that may emit from the sub-pixel 72. The comparator 132 permits light emission for the duration of the actual emission period 138 and in this way, a sub-pixel 72 may emit light of varying perceived brightness.
As described in
In the depicted sub-pixel 72, image data (data) of size N bits (e.g., image data 98) is received into the memory circuitry 172 following a similar process as described earlier. That is, a row driver 60 operates to enable a respective control signal (write en) to activate a respective transistor 176 to transmit the image data into the bit-stores 178. As depicted, the bit-stores 178 are inverter pairs that are used in a memory cell (e.g., a static random access memory (SRAM) cell) for latching a transmitted voltage value indicative of a bit value (where a group of these bits represents a gray level) until a next voltage value is transmitted for latching (e.g., storage). However, it should be understood that a variety of components may be used to store a voltage indicative of a bit.
In some embodiments, the row driver 60 operates in tandem with a column driver 62 to cause parallel transmission of all bits associated with the image data into the bit-stores 178 by simultaneously activating one or more of the transistors 176. Additionally or alternatively, the row driver 60 may cause bitwise transmission of the image data through selectively activating each transistor 176, for example, loading a bit into bit-store 178A by selectively activating the transistor 176A to cause transmission of the least significant bit of the image data.
After the bits of the gray level corresponding to the image data are stored in the bit-stores 178, the comparator 170 compares the stored bits with bits transmitted from a counter 130. As a reminder, in the pulse width emission scheme, the counter 130, increments up to a maximum gray level, such as on the rising edge of a gray level clock 134, and light emission occurs from the sub-pixel 72 until the counter 130 counts up to a number (e.g., represented by bits outputted from the counter 130) equaling and/or exceeding a number represented by the stored bit of the image data. The comparator 170 may thus perform a compression of all of the received bits into a single bit indicative of whether the stored gray level equals the count transmitted from the counter 130. In this way, the comparator 170 performs a bitwise XNOR compression to a single bit, where an output from the comparator 170 is a logical low (e.g., “0”) value unless every bit matches. If every bit matches, the comparator 170 outputs a logical high value. The output from the comparator 170 is stored in memory circuitry 174, where the value is retained in a bit-store 180 until the row driver 60 causes the output of the comparator 170 to transmit to the driver and light-emitting circuitry (e.g., LED, OLED) to drive light emission as previously described. The row driver 60 may activate two transistors with control signals (emit_en and emit_enb) to transmit the output stored in the bit-store 180. It is noted that CNT_b[X] may correspond to an inverse of the CNT[X] and emit_enb corresponds to an inverse of emit_en.
It should be appreciated that in some embodiments the counter 130 may decrement, a comparator 170 may output a logical low value if every bit matches, or any combination thereof. In other words, a variety of valid embodiments may apply described memory-in-pixel techniques. Furthermore, an optional transistor 182 may be included in the portion 168 of the sub-pixel 72 to provide power-saving benefits from precharging a common output (e.g., MTCH) node of the comparator 170. It should also be noted that in some embodiments, the counting circuitry 130 may be located in the row driver 60, or any suitable component, such that outputs from the counter 130 are transmitted to the sub-pixels 72.
As described above, the memory circuitry of the sub-pixel 72 operates to provide a pulse width emission scheme and permits light emission according to a gray level represented by the bits stored in the bit-stores 178. In the event that a bit-store 178 were to be defective after manufacturing, there may be no easy or convenient way to repair the individual bit-store 178 (e.g., direct replace the bit-store 178), hence why rerouting techniques are so desirable.
To help illustrate these rerouting techniques, FIGS.8A-8C,
As described above,
To illustrate the effect of the rerouting,
To help illustrate the rerouting operations described herein,
To help illustrate
To further illustrate,
To perform this LSB rerouting, the redundancy control circuitry 200 may selectively control the multiplexers 202 and the multiplexers 204. The row driver 60 and column driver 62 may reroute signals based on control signals received from the timing controller 54. Through communication with the redundancy control circuitry 200, the row driver 60, and the column driver 62, the timing controller 54 may reroute data for the defective bit-store 178F to the bit-store 178A based at least in part on a map of defective bit-stores 178 associated with the display system 52. In some embodiments, the timing controller 54 may operate to reroute bits corresponding to additional defective bit-stores 178 to other bit-stores 178 not already being used from rerouting. Thus, a timing controller 54 may perform the rerouting two, three, four, or more times based on the particular display system 52 embodiment. The timing controller 54 may operate the sub-pixel 72 to transmit the bits stored in the bit-stores 178 to the driver 80 to cause light emission from the LED 103 corresponding to an image to be displayed.
In some embodiments, spare bit-stores 178 and LSB rerouting techniques may be combined. To help illustrate,
With the foregoing in mind,
Referring now to
After receiving the test data, at block 224, the timing controller 54 may load the memory circuitry 172 with the test data. To do this, the timing controller 54 may operate the column driver 62 to individually store bits corresponding to a gray level for the test data into each bit-store 178 such that the corresponding digital number represented by the bit-store 178 equals the gray level of the test data. The column driver 62 may operate each bit-store 178 to receive the test data bit through selective activation of the corresponding transistors 176.
If the light emitted by the sub-pixel 72 deviates from what the expected perceived gray level (e.g., known gray level transmitted as the test data), the timing controller 54 may correlate the deviation to one or more defective bit-stores 178. Thus, at block 228, the timing controller 54 may determine where memory of the display system 52 is defective through performing electrical or optical testing on the output generated in response to the test data. The timing controller 54 may determine the defective bit-stores 178 in a variety of ways including, but not limited to, receiving an indication from a user input defining which bit-stores 178 are defective, from measuring a quality or brightness of light emitted by the display system 52 while displaying the test data and determining the measured value deviates from an expected value associated with the test data (such as through optical testing involving one or more optical measurements, or optical-based measurements), performing electrical testing to determine which bit-stores 178 are defective, or the like.
Based on the defective bit-stores 178, at block 230, the timing controller 54 may generate a map indicative of the defective bit-stores 178 and subsequent reroutings to decrease or eliminate the impact of the defective bit-stores 178. In some embodiments, the timing controller 54 may work with additional processing circuitry, such as the processing core complex 12, to generate the map. This map may be interpretable by the row driver 60, the timing controller 54, the redundancy control circuitry 200, and/or the column driver 62 to facilitate in the rerouting and correction of the defective bit-stores 178.
To help describe how the map is used in displaying image data,
Referring now to
After receiving the map, at block 254, the timing controller 54 may receive the image data. The timing controller 54 may receive the image data from a variety of sources, including processing circuitry dedicated to retrieving, preparing, and transmitting of individual frames of image data for display. In addition, the timing controller 54 may operate to retrieve the image data itself from a suitable memory location, such as a storage device 14.
After the timing controller 54 receives the image data, at block 256, the timing controller 54 may load the memory circuitry 172 with the image data according to the map. That is, the timing controller 54 may read the map to receive the reroutings that are to occur to correct for defective bit-stores 178. Based on reading the map, the timing controller 54 loads the bit-stores 178 according to the mappings that reroute defective bit-stores to mapped bit-stores with the correct image data. In this way, the defective bit-stores 178 are unused (the exception being when a least significant bit is rerouted intentionally into a defective bit-store 178) and the spare bit-stores 178 are leveraged to lessen the impact one or more defective bit-store 178 has on perceived image quality and perceived gray levels.
The timing controller 54, at block 258, may operate to present the image data according to the loaded memory circuitry 172, after loading the various bit-stores 178 according to the map. As described above, the timing controller 54 operates to present an image through operating the sub-pixel 72 to emit light for a particular duration of time corresponding to the image data loaded into the bit-stores 178 of that sub-pixel 72. Thus, through loading the memory circuitry 172 according to the map indicative of the defective bit-stores 178 and rerouting data to reduce the impact of the defective bit-stores 178, the timing controller 54 is able to continue to operate a display system 52 even while the display system 52 has defective memory in one or more sub-pixels 72.
In some embodiments, these techniques are applied over groups of pixels, such as over one or more rows of pixels. For example, instead of each sub-pixel having a dedicated spare bit-store 178S, four rows of pixels might share one or more of the bit-stores 178. In these embodiments, the display system 52 may support differing data handling schemes, where image data is loaded for emission at different times, permitting the sharing of the bit-stores 178.
In addition, in some embodiments, in generation of the map, the timing controller 54 or other suitable processing circuitry may take into consideration secondary factors to determine which defective bit-store 178 to replace with the spare bit-store 178. For example, the timing controller 54 may determine a location of the pixel on the screen or which sub-pixel the particular defective bit-store 178 is affecting to prioritize the repair. In this way, a defective bit-store 178 that affects a pixel in the middle of a screen may have replacement prioritized over a defective bit-store 178 that affects a pixel on the side of a screen. As another example, certain channels of sub-pixels 72 may be prioritized, such as repairs to affected red sub-pixels 72 may be prioritized over blue sub-pixels 72.
Thus, the technical effects of the present disclosure include improvements to controllers of electronic displays to compensate for non-uniform pixel properties caused by defective memory of a memory-in-pixel display system, for example, through generating a map corresponding to defective memories that shows reroutings from the defective memory to different memory to compensate for the defective memories. These techniques describe rerouting data from defective bit-stores to functional, non-defective bit-stores based on how significant of a bit the defective bit-store is associated with. These techniques describe an improved manner to detect and correct defective bit-stores, enabling the continued use of a memory-in-pixel display system even when defective bit-stores are included in memory circuitry. In addition, memory-in-pixel electronic displays may implement memory cells distributed across pixels of the electronic displays where it may not be feasible or possible to use standard redundancy schemes.
