Abstract:
A display system comprising:a display comprising a plurality of pixels;a plurality of memory buffers;a decoder receiving frames at a frame rate, each frame including a plurality of brightness codes, each of said brightness codes associated with one of said plurality of pixels, said decoder generating a plurality of refresh commands associated with each said pixel based upon the associated brightness code, where a number of said memory buffers is equal to a number of said refresh commands for each pixel, each of said plurality of refresh commands for each pixel being stored in a different one of said memory buffers, and said decoder generating all said refresh commands for each received frame and storing them in said memory buffers at said frame rate; anda driver sequentially reading said plurality of memory buffers and driving said pixels in said display according to each said memory buffer, wherein said driver reads said refresh commands from each of said buffer memories at a refresh rate equal to said frame rate multiplied by the number of said buffer memories so that said display is driven at said frame rate.
