The display control module 122 and the power control module of the display panel 12 can have connected lines, or as before, the age-old age control group 122 can be connected with the liquid crystal display controller, the zoom controller, and the display device power control. The module is integrated into a display device chip. Therefore, the display display control module 122 can transmit the command from the control module 1〇2 to the _device Wei (four) module, and the 俾健龙 group (10) judges and displays according to the environmental age system information. When the panel m is in the standby state, the power control tilting group is caused to lower or turn off the power of the panel 120, and when the display panel 12G is restored from the standby state to the working state, the power control module is restored to the power of the display panel 12 supply. In the embodiment, the input module 124, the wafer 1〇 and the display display control module 122 can achieve a two-way communication and (4) the display control module 122 can input the input module m. The command 121 is transmitted to the control module 1〇2. When the peripheral output of the computer system 1 is such that the mouse 152 or the keyboard 154 cannot be driven, the control module 102 can hardly set the computer system i and the periphery according to the input command after receiving the input command (2). Carry out (4). For example, the control mode 102 can be used to debug the electric (four) system i according to the age of the input 121 or the shutdown control 12 201214110 system. The control module U) 2 can also pass the power monitoring interface U after receiving the input command 121 to control the shutdown of the computer. On the other hand, in the foregoing, when the display panel 12 or the display panel 161 is not working properly and there is no screen on the display panel 12, the control module 1〇2_input command ΐ2ι can also be made in this way. Controlling the computer system environment information monitoring mode _ taking the phase, the message, and the step-by-step control information is transmitted to the display display control module 122 to display related information on the display panel 120. Therefore, by the design of the two-way communication, the chip 1 can not operate smoothly in the input/output device of the computer system i, and when the display device U is still in normal operation, the input command 121 is obtained by the display device 12-end to the computer system. Take control. Please refer to Figure 3. Figure 3 is a block diagram of a more detailed description of the wafer 1 in another embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, it can be an embedded control (_line controller; EC) wafer. In this embodiment, the basic structure of the chip 10 is similar to that shown in FIG. 2, including the control connection interface 1GG, the control module 1G2, the data transmission interface 2G, the power monitoring interface 22, the error information connection 4 24, and the conventional Peripheral connection interface %, hardware monitoring module 28A, and analog digital converter 282. However, in this embodiment, the wafer 1 further includes a register comparison table 30 and an embedded control interface 32. In this embodiment, the computer system environment information monitoring module can be any of the foregoing functional blocks (interfaces, modules, ...) or a combination thereof. The wafer 1 in the form of an embedded control wafer differs from the wafer 10 in the form of a super input/output control wafer in that the wafer 10 in the form of a super input wheel control wafer has a real circuit block to implement a computer system environmental information monitoring module or other mode. group. In the embodiment, the wafer 1 in the form of an embedded control wafer is a multiplier, an adder, a register, and a general purpose input/output (General Purpose I/O; GPI0) and other modules are controlled to achieve the power of the computer system environment information monitoring module or other model 201214110 group. Therefore, although Figure 3 is shown as a block module, some modules are not as complete as the super input and output control chip, but may be in multipliers, adders, registers, and general purpose. After the input and output are controlled, the same effect is achieved. Therefore, the wafer 10 further includes a register comparison table 3 to control the actions of the registers. The data transmission interface 20 and the conventional peripheral connection interface 26 are also required to communicate via the embedded control interface 32 due to different specifications. However, the effects as described in the previous embodiment can also be realized by the multiplier, the adder, the register, and the general-purpose input and output as described above, and are applied to the computer system 1. In other embodiments, other types of wafers may be used, and are not limited to embedded control wafers or wafers in the form of super input and output control wafers. It should be noted that the computer system i can be formed as a computer (dUn 〇ne; AI0) as shown in Figure i. That is, the wafer 1, the display device 12, and the system such as the basic input/output system 140, the central processing unit 144, the memory 146, and the peripheral hardware can be formed on a single-board. Therefore, the control connection interface (10) between the control module (10) and the display display control module 122 can be formed directly on the circuit board independently of the display interface 161 by designing on the single-circuit board. '• month refers to Figure 4. 4 is a computer system 1 in the other embodiment of the disclosure. In this embodiment, the computer system i is a desktop computer or a notebook computer <, page 5L computer system! The host terminal 4, the chip ι and the system and peripheral hardware are mounted on the host terminal 4, and the display device 12 is independent of the host terminal 4. Therefore, in the case of a desktop computer, the display interface 161 is used to communicate between the display module 160 and the display device 12 by means of a transmission line, and the control connection between the control module 102 and the display module 122. The interface lGG can be integrated with the display interface 161 in the same j line to achieve the purpose of two-way communication and control. ... The advantage of using this (4) valley is that the control system can be controlled according to the computer system environment information by using the monitoring system to monitor the computer secret environment resources 201214110 ^... The operation of the display panel is controlled step by step, and the above purpose is easily achieved. The following is a disclosure of the above, and it is intended to limit the scope of The scope of the disclosure is therefore to be determined by the scope of the appended claims.
