Module Interconnection Architecture and Methods for Display Systems Using Electroluminescent Devices

A display structure for displaying an image represented by a number of pixels includes: (a) multiple switches; and (b) multiple display modules, with each display module having (i) a network interface which allows the display module to be interconnected by the switches in a programmable network configuration with the other display modules; and (ii) electroluminescent devices (ELDs) of three or more basis colors implementing one or more designated groups of pixels of the image. The display modules are synchronized internally and with each other using a precision timing protocol of the programmable network configuration. Each module may further include control logic circuitry for controlling the ELDs and an associated set of ELD drivers.
