a display state register section configured to store a first value indicative of a display state of said display panel, and

a display state monitor section configured to monitor said display state of said display panel based on said first value stored in said display state register section,

wherein when said first value is updated, said display state monitor section requests reading of new setting data corresponding to new display state indicated by said updated first value, and

wherein said memory control circuit reads said new setting data in response to said request.

4 . The display device according to claim 3 , wherein said display control circuit further includes:

a request arbiter circuit configured to judge priority orders of a plurality of requests including said request and read said new setting data based on said priority orders when said display state monitor section outputs said plurality of requests.

5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein said memory is a non-volatile memory.

6 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein said display panel is a liquid crystal display panel.

7 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein said display control circuit reflects said read setting data during said blanking interval.

8 . A display driver circuit comprising:

a control circuit configured to read setting data of a display panel from a memory in synchronization with a front porch which indicates a start timing of a blanking interval, and drive said display panel based on said setting data.

9 . The display driver circuit according to claim 8 , wherein said control circuit further comprising:

a memory control circuit configured to read said setting data from said memory,

a setting register configured to store said read setting data, and

a timing controller,

wherein said timing controller outputs a blanking start signal indicative of said start timing of said blanking interval to said memory control circuit, and

wherein said memory control circuit reads said setting data from said memory in response to said blanking start signal and outputs said setting data to said setting register.

10 . The display driver circuit according to claim 9 , wherein said control circuit further comprising:

a display state register section configured to store a first value indicative of a display state of said display panel; and

a display state monitor section configured to monitor said display state of said display panel based on said first value stored in said display state register section;

wherein when said first value is updated, said display state monitor section requests reading of new setting data corresponding to new display state indicated by said updated first value, and

wherein said memory control circuit reads said new setting data in response to said request.

11 . The display driver circuit according to claim 10 , wherein said control circuit further comprising:

a request arbiter circuit configured to judge priority orders of a plurality of requests including said request and read said new setting data based on said priority orders when said display state monitor section outputs said plurality of requests.

12 . The display driver circuit according to claim 8 , wherein said control circuit drives said display panel after said control circuit reflects said setting data into a setting resistor in synchronization with a back porch of said blanking interval.

13 . An operation method of a display device, comprising:

outputting a blanking start signal indicative of a start timing of a blanking interval;

reading setting data for a display panel from a memory in synchronization with said blanking start signal; and

storing said setting data in a setting register.

14 . The operation method of a display device according to claim 13 , further comprising:

driving said display panel based on said setting data stored in said setting register,

wherein said outputting step includes:

supplying said blanking start signal to a memory control circuit which reads said setting data from said memory, and

wherein said reading step includes:

reading said setting data from said memory in synchronization with said blanking start signal by said memory control circuit, and

supplying said read setting data to said setting register by said memory control circuit.

15 . The operation method of a display device according to claim 13 , further comprising:

detecting a display state of said display panel; and

requesting reading of new setting data corresponding to new display state when said display state is changed,

wherein said outputting step is executed in response to said requesting step.
