Display system and control method for display device
View Patent ↗In a display system, a display device includes a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of source lines and a plurality of common electrodes used for both image display and touch detection. A first acquirer acquires a specific frequency to be avoided. A second acquirer acquires a frequency of a control signal used to control the display device. When the specific frequency and the frequency of the control signal satisfy a changing condition, a changing unit changes the frequency of the control signal.
1. A display system, comprising:
a display device comprising a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of source lines, and a plurality of common electrodes used for both image display and touch detection; and
a control device that controls the display device, the control device comprising a CPU that:
acquires a specific frequency to be avoided;
acquires a frequency of a control signal used to control the display device; and
changes the frequency of the control signal when the specific frequency and the frequency of the control signal satisfy a changing condition, wherein
the control signal is a gate signal supplied to the plurality of gate lines,
the CPU acquires a frequency of the gate signal,
the CPU changes the frequency of the gate signal when the specific frequency is an integral multiple of the frequency of the gate signal,
the CPU changes the frequency of the gate signal while a period of one frame, within which the gate signal for one screen of a display image is supplied to the plurality of gate lines, is kept unchanged,
the period of one frame is divided into a plurality of sub-frame periods,
each sub-frame period includes a display period for which the gate signal is supplied to the plurality of gate lines, and a touch detection period for which a touch drive signal is supplied to the plurality of common electrodes, and
the CPU changes proportions of the display period and the touch detection period while keeping the sub-frame period unchanged, and changes the frequency of the gate signal.

4. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein
the CPU controls a function circuit that performs a predetermined function and radiates an electromagnetic wave, and
the CPU acquires, as the specific frequency, a frequency of the electromagnetic wave.
5. A control method for a display device comprising a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of source lines, and a plurality of common electrodes used for both image display and touch detection, the control method comprising:
first acquiring a specific frequency to be avoided;
second acquiring a frequency of a control signal used to control the display device; and
changing the frequency of the control signal when the specific frequency and the frequency of the control signal satisfy a changing condition, wherein
the control signal is a gate signal supplied to the plurality of gate lines,
a frequency of the gate signal is acquired in the second acquiring,
the frequency of the gate signal is changed in the changing when the specific frequency is an integral multiple of the frequency of the gate signal,
the frequency of the gate signal is changed in the changing while a period of one frame, within which the gate signal for one screen of a display image is supplied to the plurality of gate lines, is kept unchanged,
the period of one frame is divided into a plurality of sub-frame periods,
each sub-frame period includes a display period for which the gate signal is supplied to the plurality of gate lines, and a touch detection period for which a touch drive signal is supplied to the plurality of common electrodes, and
the frequency of the gate signal is changed in the changing by changing proportions of the display period and the touch detection period while keeping the sub-frame period unchanged.
