Abstract

See full text

An apparatus is disclosed for controlling primary color producing sub-pixels of a digitally commanded display to provide mixed colors in which sub-pixels are controlled over a programmable number N of consecutive frames to be either ON or OFF during each of the frames so that a desired time averaged brightness is produced of the primary color associated with each sub-pixel, and so that the combination of the produced time averaged brightnesss results in the color desired for the pixel to which the sub-pixels belong. The apparatus employs a modulo-N adder for programmably controlling each primary color sub-pixel by using a frame rate duty cycle approach.
