Abstract

A display device including: a display driver configured to output a scan signal during a frame period, the frame period including at least one data writing period; and a sensor driver configured to control a duty cycle of a driving signal during the data writing period based on the scan signal.

Claims (28)

1 . A display device comprising:

a display driver configured to output a scan signal during a frame period, the frame period including at least one data writing period; and

a sensor driver configured to control a duty cycle of a driving signal during the data writing period based on the scan signal.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the data writing period is a period in which the scan signal is set to a turn-on level.

3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the data writing period is a period in which the scan signal is set to a turn-on level.

4 . The display device according to claim 3 , wherein the polarity of the driving signal is a first polarity when a final edge of the driving signal is a first edge during the data writing period, and

is a second polarity when the final edge of the driving signal is a second edge during the data writing period.

5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame period includes a first data writing period followed by a second data writing period, and

a polarity of the driving signal during the first data writing period is different from the polarity of the driving signal during the second data writing period.

6 . The display device according to claim 5 , wherein when the polarity of the driving signal is a first polarity during the first data writing period, the polarity of the driving signal is a second polarity during the second data writing period.

7 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor driver comprises:

a time point calculator configured to calculate a length of the data writing period and calculate a next edge time point; and

a signal generator configured to control the duty cycle of the driving signal so that a polarity of the driving signal alternates during each data writing period based on the next edge time point.

8 . The display device according to claim 7 , wherein during a first data writing period of the frame period, the time point calculator calculates the length of the data writing period from a detected first edge time point of the scan signal and a detected second edge time point of the scan signal.

9 . The display device according to claim 8 , wherein during a second data writing period after the first data writing period, the time point calculator calculates the next edge time point based on the detected first edge time point of the scan signal in the second data writing period and the length of the second data writing period.

10 . The display device according to claim 9 , wherein the detected first edge time point is a rising edge time point, and the detected second edge time point and the next edge time point are falling edge time points.

11 . The display device according to claim 7 , wherein the signal generator adjusts the duty cycle of the driving signal so that a final edge of the driving signal becomes a second edge before the next edge time point, when the final edge of the driving signal of a previous data writing period is a first edge.

12 . An electronic device, comprising:

a processor to provide input image data; and

a display device to display an image based on the input image data,

the display device comprising:

a display driver configured to output a scan signal during a frame period, the frame period including at least one data writing period; and

a sensor driver configured to control a duty cycle of a driving signal during the data writing period based on the scan signal.

13 . The electronic device according to claim 12 , wherein the data writing period is a period in which the scan signal is set to a turn-on level.

14 . The electronic device according to claim 12 , wherein a polarity of the driving signal is a first polarity when a final edge of the driving signal is a first edge during the data writing period, and

is a second polarity when the final edge of the driving signal is a second edge during the data writing period.

15 . The electronic device according to claim 12 , wherein the frame period includes a first data writing period followed by a second data writing period, and

a polarity of the driving signal during the first data writing period is different from the polarity of the driving signal during the second data writing period.
