This application is based on and claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2018-0109243, filed on Sep. 12, 2018, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
The disclosure relates to a display system, a display apparatus, and a control method thereof, and for example, to a display system which supplies power to a display apparatus, a display apparatus, and a control method thereof.
Various types of display apparatuses have recently been developed and have become prevalent in line with the development of electronic technologies, and demand for large display apparatuses has increased.
Such a large display apparatus requires high power, and thus, a power adapter supplying power and the display apparatus need to be connected by a thick cable, degrading design and user convenience.
Meanwhile, a power adapter having a high output voltage may have a small magnitude of current to reduce a thickness of a cable but require the same isolated voltage with respect to a ground as with a user in terms of stability. Therefore, a switched mode power supply (SMPS) of a large display apparatus must be configured as an isolated power supply. However, an isolation-type circuit configuration increases a volume of the display apparatus and manufacturing cost.
There has been a movement toward providing a high voltage required for driving large display apparatuses and enhancement of stability of users although an adapter and a display apparatus are connected by a relatively thin cable. There also has been demand for reducing the volume and manufacturing cost of the display apparatuses.

The electronic device 100 includes a rectifier 110, converters 120 and 130, a first interface 140, and a second interface 150.
A power supply line of the electronic device 100 may be connected to a power outlet providing commercial power (e.g., 90 to 264 V), and the electronic device 100 may transmit commercial power to the display apparatus 200. The electronic device 100 may be realized as various types of devices that supply power to the display apparatus 200.
The rectifier 110 of the electronic device 100 may include an electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter 110-1 and a power factor correction (PFC) circuit 110-2. The EMI filter 110-1 rectifies and smooths the input commercial power and outputs to DC power having a certain level. A half-wave or full-wave rectification circuit may be used for rectification and a capacitor (not shown) may be connected in parallel to an output terminal of the rectification circuit for smoothing.
The PFC 110-2 circuit may cancel out reactive power to satisfy a PF regulation of an electronic product.
The rectifier 110 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may have the other end connected to a first ground terminal. Therefore, the rectifier 110 may rectify the external AC power to DC power based on a first ground. The first ground may, for example, be a power ground PGND.
The converters 120 and 130 of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may each have one end connected to a second ground terminal. Accordingly, the converters 120 and 130 may convert the rectified DC power from the rectifier 110 to power having a predetermined intensity based on the second ground.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may provide power to the display apparatus 200 via the first interface 140 connected to the second ground. The display apparatus 200 may be connected to the second ground terminal. For example, the first interface 140 of the electronic device 100 and the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the second ground, and the electronic device 100 may transmit commercial power to the display apparatus 200 via the first interface 140. The second ground to which the first interface 140 and the display apparatus 200 are connected may be a ground different from an earth ground (e.g., a frame ground (FGND)).
In addition, the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may receive a signal from an external device via the second interface 150 connected to the earth ground (GND). In addition, the electronic device 100 may provide the signal received from the external device to the display apparatus 200 through the first interface 140.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include a first isolated converter 120 (e.g., first isolated power converter) and a second isolated converter 130 (e.g., second isolated power converter).
The first and second isolated converters 120 and 130 may convert the rectified power from the rectifier 110 to a predetermined intensity.
Converters may include an isolated converter and a non-isolated converter. The isolated converter may refer, for example, to a converter in which a primary side (input part) and a secondary side (output part) are isolated by a transformer. The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include the first and second isolated converters 120, 130 using a transformer. The transformer may refer, for example, to a device in which a primary winding and a secondary winding are wound around a core. When a current change occurs in the primary winding, induced electromotive force is generated in the secondary winding due to a change in magnetic flux passing through the core, and an induced current flows. The other end (e.g., a secondary side) of each of the first and second isolated converters 120 and 130 may be connected to the second ground terminal.
The first isolated converter 120 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may be connected to the rectifier 110 in parallel or in series. The first isolated converter 120 may convert the rectified DC power from the rectifier 110 to a power having predetermined intensity based on the second ground.
The second isolated converter 130 may be connected in parallel with the first isolated converter 120. The second isolated converter 130 may convert the rectified DC power from the rectifier 110 into a power having predetermined intensity based on the second ground.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may supply power to the display apparatus 200. As an example, the converters 120 and 130 of the electronic device 100 may supply power to the display apparatus 200 based on the second ground. The display apparatus 200 may be connected to the same ground as the second ground and may be driven using power supplied from the electronic device 100. The second ground is a ground different from the earth ground.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may supply at least one of driving power required for driving the display apparatus 200 or standby power required for a standby state of the display apparatus 200. For example, the first isolated converter 120 may convert DC power into driving power of the display apparatus 200 based on the second ground, and the second isolated converter 130 may convert DC power into standby power of the display apparatus 200. The second ground may, for example, be a frame ground FGND different from the earth ground. The frame ground may be referred to as a chassis ground or the like, and will referred to as a frame ground hereinafter for convenience.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include the first interface 140. The first interface 140 may be connected to the display apparatus 200 and may transmit, for example, power, signals, data, and the like to the display apparatus 200. For example, the first interface 140 may be implemented as a power source terminal and transmit at least one of the driving power and the standby power to the display apparatus 200. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto, and the electronic device 100 may transmit power and signals to the display apparatus 200 through the first interface 140 in which a power source terminal, a signal terminal, and the like are integrated. In addition, each of the first interface 140 and the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the same second ground.
The display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may receive power from the electronic device 100 and operate using the received power, rather than having a power supply line or the like for connection to a power outlet that provides commercial power.
For example, the display apparatus 200 may convert the driving power, standby power, and the like received from the electronic device 100, and operate using the converted power. For example, an internal component of the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the second ground terminal and may convert power received from the electronic device 100 using non-isolated conversion. Details thereof will be described with reference to
Referring to
The second interface 150 may receive an input signal from a plurality of external devices. The second interface 150 may receive an input signal from a plurality of external devices using at least one of wired/wireless methods. The wired method may, for example, be implemented by an RF cable, an HDMI, a DVI, a component, a wired Ethernet or the like, and the wireless method may be implemented by Wi-fi, an antenna, Bluetooth or the like, but is not limited thereto.
For example, the second interface 150 may be implemented as an input terminal according to an HDMI standard and may be connected to a set-top box to receive an input signal. The second interface 150 may be implemented as a Wi-Fi communication module, receive input signals from various streaming services and be provided with content.
For example, the second interface 150 may be connected to ground. Because the external device connected to the electronic device 100 through the second interface 150 is connected to the earth ground, the second interface 150 may be connected to the earth ground differently from the other components of the electronic device 100. For example, the second interface 150 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may be grounded independently of the other components in the electronic device 100. The earth ground may be referred to as a ground, an earth, or the like, but is hereinafter referred to as an earth ground GND for convenience of explanation.
When an external device is connected through the second interface 150, the second isolated converter 130 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may convert the DC power output from the rectifier 110 into power based on the earth ground and output the converted power to the second interface 150. For example, as the power converted by the second isolated converter 130 is supplied to the second interface 150, the second interface 150 may receive a signal from the connected external device.
The electronic device 100 may transmit an input signal received from an external device through the second interface 150 to the display apparatus 200 through the first interface 140. Accordingly, the display apparatus 200 may be driven using the power received from the electronic device 100 and display the signal received from the electronic device 100.
Referring to
The display 210 may, for example, be a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light emitting diode (OLED), an active-matrix OLED (AMOLED), a plasma display panel (PDP), a quantum dot (QD), a micro LED, or the like.
The driving module 220 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include various driving circuitry that drives the display 210. For example, the driving module 220 may drive each pixel configuring the display 210 by applying a driving voltage to each pixel or causing a driving current to flow in each pixel under the control of the main module 230. The display 210 may be referred to as a display panel and the driving module 220 may be referred to as a panel driving unit. The display 210 and the driving module 220 may be referred to as the display 210 and the driving module 220, respectively.
The main module 230 may include various control circuitry and generally controls the operation of the display apparatus 200.
According to an embodiment, the main module 230 may include various control circuitry, such as, for example, and without limitation, one or more of a central processing unit (CPU), a microcontroller unit (MCU), a micro processing unit (MPU), a controller, an application processor (AP), a communication processor (CP), an ARM processor, or the like, or may be defined by the corresponding term.
The main module 230 may, for example, be realized as a system on chip (SoC), with a built-in processing algorithm, a large scale integration (LSI), or a field programmable gate array (FPGA).
The main module 230 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may display a signal received from the electronic device 100 through the display 210.
The interface 240 may be connected to the electronic device 100 to receive power, signals, data, and the like. In an example, the interface 240 may be realized as a power terminal to receive power from the electronic device 100. However, without being limited thereto, the display apparatus 200 may receive power and signals from the electronic device 100 through the interface 240 in which a power terminal, a signal terminal, and the like are integrated.
The display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may be configured to receive power through the electronic device 100 and operate using the same, without a power supply line or the like for connection to a power outlet providing commercial power.
For example, the interface 240 may be connected to the same ground as the electronic device 100. For example, a ground which is connected to the display apparatus 200 and to which the first interface 140 of the electronic device 100 supplying power to the display apparatus 200 is connected and a ground to which the interface 240 of the display apparatus 200 is connected may be the same.
The interface 240 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may receive at least one of driving power source and standby power from the electronic device 100.
The power receiving module 250 may include various power receiving circuitry and be connected to the interface 240. The power receiving module 250 may supply the power received by the interface 240 from the electronic device 100 to each component of the display apparatus 200. For example, the power receiving module 250 may be connected to the same ground as the electronic device 100. For example, it may be assumed that the first interface 140 of the electronic device 100 is connected to the second ground and the interface 240 and the power receiving module 250 of the display apparatus 200 are connected to the second ground. The second ground may be a ground different from the earth ground GND.
The power receiving module 250 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include various power receiving circuitry, such as, for example, and without limitation, a non-isolated converter (not shown) and a controller (not shown), or the like.
The non-isolated converter may convert the received power to a power having predetermined intensity. For example, the non-isolated converter may convert the driving power received from the electronic device 100 into a power having an intensity suitable for driving the display apparatus 200 and provide the converted power to the display 210, the driving module 220, and the main module 230. In another example, the non-isolated converter may convert standby power received from the electronic device 100 into a power having an intensity required for the standby state of the display apparatus 200 and provide the converted power to the main module 230.
The controller may control an overall operation of the power receiving module 250. According to an embodiment, the controller may include, for example, and without limitation, one or more of a microprocessor, a central processing unit (CPU), a microcontroller unit (MCU), a micro processing unit (MPU), a controller, an application processor (AP), a communication processor (CP), an ARM processor, or the like, or may be defined as a corresponding term. In addition, the controller may be realized as a system on chip (SoC) with a processing algorithm embedded therein, a large scale integration (LSI), or a field programmable gate array (FPGA).
According to an embodiment, the display apparatus 200 may operate in first and second modes. The first mode may, for example, be a normal mode (or a driving mode), and the second mode may, for example, be a standby mode. If the display apparatus 200 is in the first mode, the controller may control the power receiving module 250 to provide driving power to the display apparatus 200. As another example, if the display apparatus 200 is in the second mode, the controller may control the power receiving module 250 to provide standby power to the display apparatus 200.
For example, it may be assumed that driving power and standby power are received from the electronic device 100 through the interface 240. The controller may control the power receiving module 250 to provide either the driving power or the standby power to be provided to the components in the display apparatus 200 according to a mode of the display apparatus 200.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the driving power and the standby power received from the electronic device 100 may be converted powers based on the second ground. For example, because the display apparatus 200 is connected to the second ground terminal, the power received from the electronic device 100 may be converted using a non-isolated converter. Each internal component of the display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may be connected to the same ground as the electronic device 100. For example, it may be assumed that the display apparatus 200 is connected to the first interface 140 of the electronic device 100 and receives power and signals through the first interface 140. When the first interface 140 of the electronic device 100 is connected to the second ground, each internal component of the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the second ground. The second ground is a ground different from the earth ground GND.
As illustrated in
The single cable may include a ground line 310 corresponding to the second ground, a first voltage line 320 for transmitting driving power, and a second voltage line 330 for transmitting standby power.
Referring to
In the related art, the display apparatus 200 is grounded to the ground and is supplied with isolated power from an adapter, an electronic device, or the like based on the earth ground. Accordingly, a connection cable between the display apparatus 200 and the electronic device is very thick because it must include all of a ground line corresponding to the earth ground, a voltage line for power supply, and the like. In addition, in order for the display apparatus 200 to receive power from the electronic device, the display apparatus 200 must have an isolated converter in order to isolate power source against the earth ground.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the single cable 300 between the electronic device 100 and the display apparatus 200 may be realized to be thinner than the related art. For example, the electronic device 100 and the display apparatus 200 are connected to a ground different from the earth ground, and the display apparatus 200 is not required to isolate power supplied from the electronic device 100 with respect to the earth ground. Therefore, because the single cable 300 does not need to have a ground line corresponding to the earth ground, the single cable 300 may be realized to be thinner than the related art.
Further, because the display apparatus 200 may be connected to a separate independent ground terminal instead of the earth ground, the display apparatus 200 does not need an isolated converter for isolating the driving power and the standby power received from the electronic device 100 with respect to the earth ground.
Referring to
For example, in the second isolated converter 130, an output terminal connected to the first interface 140 may be connected to a second ground terminal and an output terminal connected to the second interface 150 may be connected to the earth ground (or ground).
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the second isolated converter 130 may be connected in parallel with the rectifier 110 and receive the DC power output from the rectifier 110. An input terminal provided in the second isolated converter 130 may be connected to the same first ground terminal as the first isolated converter 120. One of the output terminals may be connected to the second ground terminal and the other may be connected to earth ground (GND). For example, the output terminal connected to the earth ground GND may be connected to the second interface 150. The second interface 150 may be connected to an antenna, a set-top box (using an HDMI or the like), a USB, or the like and the external device is in a state of being grounded.
According to an embodiment, the second isolated converter 130 may convert the DC power into standby power based on the second ground and output the converted power to the first interface 140 and convert the DC power into power based on the earth ground and output the converted power to the second interface 150.
The first isolated converter 120 may convert the DC power into driving power based on the second ground and output the converted power to the first interface 140.
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may further include a feedback circuit 160, a controller 170, and a protective circuit 180.
The feedback circuit 160 may identify a size of a load of an external device connected to the second interface 150.
The controller 170 may include various control or processing circuitry and controls an overall operation of the electronic device 100.
According to an embodiment, the controller may include, for example, and without limitation, one or more of a central processing unit (CPU), a microcontroller unit (MCU), a micro processing unit (MPU), a controller, an application processor (AP), a communication processor (CP), an ARM processor, or the like, or may be defined as a corresponding term. In addition, the controller 170 may be realized as a system on chip (SoC) with a processing algorithm embedded therein, a large scale integration (LSI), or a field programmable gate array (FPGA).
For example, the controller 170 may control the second isolated converter 140. In an example, the controller 170 may control intensity of the power output through the second isolated converter 140 based on a magnitude of a load identified by the feedback circuit 160. For example, the controller 170 may control the intensity of the power output through the second isolated converter 140 and power proportional to the magnitude of the load may be supplied to the second interface 150.
The protective circuit 180 may identify whether the power provided to the display apparatus 200 exceeds a predetermined threshold value. For example, the protective circuit 180 may identify whether at least one of the driving power and the standby power exceeds over voltage protection (OVP). The predetermined threshold value, which is power as high as to cause damage to a circuit in the display apparatus 200, may be related to a breakdown voltage (rated voltage) of a capacitor. In an example, the predetermined threshold value may be determined as the breakdown voltage of the capacitor provided in the protective circuit 180, and the breakdown voltage of the capacitor may, for example, be about 1.5 times (about 400 V) an upper limit of a commercial voltage range (e.g., 90 to 264 V). However, the threshold value is not limited thereto and may be set to vary according to purposes of manufacturers.
The protective circuit 180 according to an embodiment may interrupt supply of power if the power provided to the display apparatus 200 exceeds the predetermined threshold value.
Referring to
The electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include a CM filter 190 for canceling common noise.
In an example, as illustrated in
According to an embodiment, the CM noise may spread with a large loop even for a small noise current, and noise between systems may adversely affect the circuit. Therefore, noise may be canceled through the CM filter 190.
Referring to
The wireless communication interface 150-1 may perform communication with an external device through a communication method such as, for example, and without limitation, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, wireless local area network (WLAN), wide area network (WAN), Ethernet, or the like.
For example, the wireless communication interface 150-1 may transmit a signal received from the external device to the display apparatus 200 through the second interface 150.
The display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include a wireless communication interface (e.g., including wireless communication circuitry) 260.
The wireless communication interface 260 may perform communication with an external device through a communication method such as, for example, and without limitation, Wi-Fi, WLAN, Bluetooth, Zigbee, WAN, Ethernet, or the like. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto and the wireless communication interface 260 may receive content from the external server or the like in a streaming or downloading manner.
For example, the wireless communication interface 260 may receive a signal from the electronic device 100. The main module 230 may display the signal received via the wireless communication interface 260 through the display 210.
According to another embodiment, even without an optical cable in the single cable 300, the display apparatus 200 may receive and display a signal from the electronic device 100 via the wireless communication interface 260 and display the received signal.
Referring to
According to various embodiments, the driving power and the standby power may be isolated based on the second ground (e.g., FGND) and the third ground (e.g., FGND2), respectively, in consideration of, for example, EMI, a leakage current, CM noise, or the like.
When the driving power and the standby power are isolated based on different grounds as illustrated in
The power receiving module 250 of the display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include a non-isolated converter 250-1 and a controller 250-2.
According to an embodiment, an internal component or circuit of the display apparatus 200 may be connected to an independent ground terminal, rather than being grounded to a ground. For example, an internal component of the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the second ground terminal. When power isolated based on the second ground (e.g., FGND) is received from the electronic device 100, the display apparatus 200 may convert the received power using only the non-isolated converter 250-1, rather than using the isolated converter, and may be driven using the converted power.
Further, when the driving power and the standby power are received from the electronic device 100, the display apparatus 200 may convert the driving power or the standby power using the non-isolated converter 250-1 based on a mode of the display apparatus 200 and provide the converted power to an internal component thereof. The mode of the display apparatus 200 may be a driving mode or a standby mode. When the display apparatus 200 is in the driving mode, the display apparatus 200 may convert the driving power received from the electronic device 100 using the non-isolated converter 250-1, and when the display apparatus 200 is in the standby mode, the display apparatus 200 may convert the standby power using the non-isolated converter 250-1.
According to an embodiment, the display apparatus 200 may be connected to the electronic device 100 through the single cable 300. The single cable 300 may include a ground line, a first voltage line transmitting driving power, and a second voltage line transmitting standby power. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto and the single cable 300 may include only the ground line and the first voltage line transmitting driving power. That is, the single cable 300 may include a ground line corresponding to the independent ground terminal (e.g., FGND) to which the electronic device 100 and the display apparatus 200 are connected in the same manner, rather than a ground line corresponding to an earth ground.
The controller 250-2 included in the power receiving module 250 may control the driving power and/or the standby power received through the interface 240 to be provided to the components of the display apparatus 200.
For example, the display apparatus 200 may include a first mode corresponding to a normal mode and a second mode corresponding to a standby mode. When the display apparatus 200 is in the first mode, the controller 250-2 may convert the driving power, among the driving power and the standby power, received through the interface 240 by the non-isolated converter 250-1 and provide the converted power to the driving module 220 and the main module 230. If the display apparatus 200 is in the second mode, the controller 250-2 may convert the standby power through the non-isolated converter 250-1 and provide the converted power to the main module 230.
The first and second modes are examples and are not limited to the case that the controller 250-2 selects and provides any one of the driving power and the standby power according to a specific mode of the display apparatus 200 like the normal mode and the standby mode. For example, when a PS_ON signal indicating driving of the display apparatus 200 is received, the controller 250-2 may convert the driving power through the non-isolated converter 250-1 and provide the converted power to the driving module 220 and the main module 230. In addition, if the PS_ON signal is not received, the controller 250-2 may convert the standby power through the non-isolated converter 250-1 and provide the converted power to the main module 230.
For example, it may be assumed that a standby power larger than the driving power is received from the electronic device 100 due to an abnormal operation. The related art display apparatus needs to be designed such that an internal circuit receiving standby power has a high power rating in preparation of such an abnormal operation. The display apparatus 200 according to an embodiment of the disclosure may provide either the driving power source or the standby power source to an internal module of the display apparatus 200 by the controller 250-2 based, for example, on a mode, a signal, or the like.
Referring to
For example, if the PS_ON signal is absent, the controller 250-2 may provide the standby power to the main module 230 and control the non-isolated converter 250-1 not to convert the driving power.
Referring to
For example, when the PS_ON signal is received, the controller 250-2 may turn off the standby power and control the non-isolated converter 250-1 to convert the driving power. Accordingly, the driving power may be supplied to the driving module 220 and the main module 230, and the display apparatus 200 may operate. In addition, the display apparatus 200 may output a signal received from the electronic device 100 through the display 210. The power receiving module 250 may also be referred to as a power selector or the like. In the disclosure, the power receiving module 250 is used for the purposes of description.

The DC power is converted into a power based on the second ground and output to the display apparatus through the first interface connected to the second ground (S1220).
A signal received from the external device through the second interface connected to an earth ground is provided to the display apparatus through the first interface (S1230). A ground of the display apparatus may be the same as the second ground, and the second ground is a ground different from the earth ground.
Further, the electronic device may include first and second isolated converters, and operation S1220 of converting the DC power to a power based on the second ground and outputting the converted power to the display apparatus may include converting the DC power to a driving power based on the second ground through the first isolated converter and outputting the converted driving power to the display apparatus and converting the DC power to a standby power based on the second ground through the second isolated converter and outputting the converted standby power to the display apparatus. In addition, the display apparatus may include a non-isolated converter, and the control method according to an embodiment may include converting either the driving power or the standby power through the non-isolated converter based on a mode of the display apparatus.
The method according to an embodiment may include converting the DC power into power based on the earth ground through the second isolated converter and outputting the converted power to the second interface. The method according to an embodiment may include identifying a size of a load of an external device connected to the second interface and controlling an intensity of the power output through the second isolated converter based on the size of the load.
