4.6.8 Seamless Display Refresh Rate Switching Technology
(SDRRST)
This is a mobile only supported power management feature.
When a Local Flat Panel (LFP) supports multiple refresh rates, the Intel
®
Display
Refresh Rate Switching power conservation feature can be enabled. The higher refresh
rate will be used when on plugged in power or when the end user has not
selected/enabled this feature. The graphics software will automatically switch to a
lower refresh rate for maximum battery life when the notebook is on battery power and
when the user has selected/enabled this feature.
There are two distinct implementations of Intel
®
DRRS—static and seamless. The static
Intel
®
DRRS method uses a mode change to assign the new refresh rate. The seamless
Intel
®
DRRS method is able to accomplish the refresh rate assignment without a mode
change and therefore does not experience some of the visual artifacts associated with
the mode change (SetMode) method.
