Abstract: A touch detection method for a touch and display driving circuit includes transmitting a first touch pulse signal of a first frame and transmitting a first touch pulse signal of a second frame. A start timing of the first touch pulse signal of the first frame with respect to the first frame is different from a start timing of the first touch pulse signal of the second frame with respect to the second frame.

Abstract: A gate on array circuit for a display device using dual-gate architecture is disclosed. The GOA circuit comprises circuitry configured to, for a first display line of the display device, generate a first gate driving signal and a second gate driving signal for driving a first gate line and a second gate line of the first display line respectively. A first time period when the first gate driving signal is in an activation state for activating the first gate line of the first display line does not overlap with a first time period when the second gate driving signal is in the activation state for activating the second gate line of the first display line.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a driving method for a source driver, for driving a source line of a display panel. The driving method includes the steps of: driving the source line with a first voltage or a second voltage smaller than the first voltage in a first driving cycle; driving the source line with the first voltage in a second driving cycle next to the first driving cycle when the source line is driven with the first voltage in the first driving cycle; and driving the source line with an overdrive voltage in the second driving cycle when the source line is driven with the second voltage in the first driving cycle. The first voltage is a normal high voltage of the display panel, and the overdrive voltage is greater than the normal high voltage.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a driving apparatus including a reordering circuit and a source driving circuit. The reordering circuit can be configured to reorder a plurality of sub-pixel data of an input data string to generate a reordered data string so as to reduce a color switching number associated with a target data line. The source driving circuit can be coupled to the reordering circuit to receive the reordered data string. The source driving circuit can be configured to drive the target data line of a display panel according to the reordered data string.

Abstract: A method of controlling a display panel includes steps of: detecting a plurality of lines of display data to generate a detection result; determining whether to apply a general timing or a compensation timing to each of the lines of display data according to the detection result; allocating a first display line period for a first line of display data determined to be applied with the general timing; outputting at least one control signal to the display panel in the first display line period according to a length of the first display line period; allocating a second display line period for a second line of display data determined to be applied with the compensation timing; and outputting the at least one control signal to the display panel in the second display line period according to a length of the second display line period different from the first display line period.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for driving an OLED touch-and-display device, a driving circuit, and an OLED touch-and-display device. The method includes: dividing each display frame into at least one display period and at least one touch detection period which are alternated; during each display period, generating sequentially-shifted gate driving signals and sequentially-shifted light-emission control signals, and sequentially applying the sequentially-shifted gate driving signals to at least a part of gate driving lines, and sequentially applying the sequentially-shifted light-emission control signals to at least a part of light-emission control lines; during each touch detection period, suspending generation of sequentially-shifted gate driving signals without suspending generation of sequentially-shifted light-emission control signals; and during a period when a gate driving signal for each row of pixels is of active level, maintaining a light-emission control signal for the row of pixels at inactive level.
