Abstract
Micro-LED technology offers numerous advantages, including high brightness, low power consumption, and superior color performance. However, driving micro LED displays requires complex control algorithms and high-speed data processing. To address these challenges, this paper presents the development of a real-time FPGA-based control system for a 68-inch 4K/60Hz micro-LED display. The objective of this project was to create a high-performance control system capable of driving the micro-LED display with precise color accuracy, supporting 10-bit color depth for enhanced color rendition. One crucial aspect of the system is color calibration, which ensures accurate color reproduction across the display, maintaining consistent and vibrant colors. By incorporating advanced color calibration techniques, the system achieves excellent color consistency and fidelity, providing a visually stunning viewing experience. Moreover, the system incorporates hot plug functionality, allowing for seamless reconnection of the display after Ethernet disconnection. This feature ensures uninterrupted operation and enhances user experience. In FPGA design, the proposed system demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of real-time control in driving micro-LED displays, offering improved color performance and reliable operation in various applications.
微型 LED 技术具有许多优点,包括高亮度、低功耗和卓越的色彩表现。然而,驱动微型 LED 显示屏需要复杂的控制算法和高速数据处理。为了应对这些挑战,本文介绍了为 68 英寸 4K/60Hz micro-LED 显示屏开发基于 FPGA 的实时控制系统的情况。该项目的目标是创建一个高性能控制系统,能够以精确的色彩精度驱动微型 LED 显示器,支持 10 位色深以增强色彩表现力。该系统的一个重要方面是色彩校准,它能确保整个显示屏的色彩还原准确,保持一致和鲜艳的色彩。通过采用先进的色彩校准技术,该系统实现了出色的色彩一致性和保真度,提供了视觉震撼的观看体验。此外,该系统还集成了热插拔功能,可在以太网断开后无缝重新连接显示器。这一功能可确保不间断运行,增强用户体验。在 FPGA 设计中,所提出的系统证明了实时控制在驱动微型 LED 显示器方面的可行性和有效性,可在各种应用中提供更好的色彩性能和可靠的操作。
