TIMING CONTROLLER WITH VIDEO FORMAT CONVERSION, METHOD THEREFOR AND DISPLAY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A display system, having a two-dimensional (2D) display mode and a three-dimensional (3D) display mode, comprising:
- a display control unit, for receiving a video source, generating a digital video signal as an input signal and outputting a control signal, the control signal comprising a first control signal indicating the 2D display mode or the 3D display mode; and
a timing control unit, coupled to the display control unit, for receiving the digital video signal, and outputting a 2D output video signal or a 3D output video signal;
wherein the timing control unit comprises a 3D data format conversion unit, and outputs the 3D output video signal by the 3D data format conversion unit in response to the first control signal indicating the 3D display mode.

Abstract
A method for a timing controller with video format conversion is provided. The method includes steps of: receiving a control signal indicating a two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) display mode, and outputting a 2D or 3D output video signal in response to the control signal by a timing controller coupled between a display panel module and a display control unit. The outputting step includes: outputting the 2D output video signal in response to the control signal indicating the 2D display mode, and outputting the 3D output video signal by a 3D data format conversion unit in response to the control signal indicating the 3D display mode.

7. A timing controller with video format conversion, for use in a display panel having a 2D display mode and a 3D display mode, comprising:
-
an input signal switch unit, having an input terminal, at least one first output terminal and at least one second output terminal, the first output terminal of the input signal switch unit being coupled to an output terminal of the timing controller; and a 3D data format conversion unit, coupled between the at least one second output terminal of the input signal switch unit and the output terminal of the timing controller; wherein the input signal switch unit receives a control signal, the control signal comprises a first control signal indicating a 2D display mode or a 3D display mode;
when the first control signal indicates the 2D display mode, the input signal switch unit outputs an input signal from the first output terminal;
when the first control signal indicates the 3D display mode, the input signal switch unit outputs the input signal from the at least one second output terminal to the 3D data format conversion unit. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
