TRIPLE MODE LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY
First Claim
1. A multi-mode display system comprising:
- a multi-mode liquid crystal display comprising a plurality of pixels, a first pixel in the plurality of pixels comprising a first transmissive part and a first reflective part;
a latched pixel driving circuit comprising;
a transmissive latching section comprising a first transmissive data input coupled to the first transmissive part of the first pixel, wherein the transmissive latching section is configured to drive a first transmissive data value from the first transmissive data input and to set the first transmissive part to a first transmissive display state based on the first transmissive data value from the first transmissive data input;
wherein the first transmissive data value is from a plurality of transmissive data values and the transmissive display state is from a plurality of transmissive display states;
a reflective latching section comprising a first reflective data input coupled to the first reflective part of the first pixel, wherein the reflective latching section is configured to drive a first reflective data value from the first reflective data input and to set the first reflective part to a first reflective display state based on the first reflective data value from the first reflective data input;
wherein the first reflective data value is from a plurality of reflective data values and the reflective display state is from a plurality of reflective display states;
wherein the first transmissive data input is independent of the first reflective data input.

Abstract
In an embodiment, a system comprises an LCD comprising a plurality of pixels each comprising a transmissive part; a reflective part; and a latched driving circuit. The driving circuit comprises a transmissive section comprising a transmissive data input coupled to the transmissive part of the pixel, and is configured to drive a transmissive data value from the transmissive data input and to set the transmissive part to a transmissive display state based on the transmissive data value; a reflective section comprising a reflective data input (independent of the transmissive data input) coupled to the reflective part of the pixel, and is configured to drive a reflective data value from the reflective data input and to set the reflective part to a reflective display state based on the reflective data value.
