A drive control method and a related device for a display panel that has different display areas are provided. Time-divided drive control is performed on pixel scan circuits corresponding to the different display areas, so that in a scenario in which some display areas do not need to display an image, a pixel scan circuit may be left idle for some time, to reduce power consumption required by the pixel scan circuits for scanning pixels in this time period.

In a liquid crystal display (LCD) device having a touch panel function, power consumption is reduced in the standby state. The display section is divided into blocks each of which is formed of a plurality of display lines. The counter electrode is disposed for each block. A driving circuit selectively supplies, to the counter electrode of each block, the voltage used for the liquid crystal display and the voltage used for the touch panel scanning. The driving circuit has a source amplifier that supplies the video voltages to the video lines. The driving circuit reduces the current in the source amplifier, such that the current is lower than current at the time of a normal operation, to lower the power consumption, and stops the operation of the source amplifier and supplies the GND voltage to the video lines to further lower the power consumption.

Embodiments of this application disclose a method for reducing power consumption and a device, and relate to the field of mobile terminals, to further reduce power consumption of a terminal device when the terminal device enters a doze mode. A specific solution is as follows: After detecting that screen-off duration of the terminal device is greater than first duration, the terminal device sends a transmission control protocol reset packet to an application server of a to-be-controlled application, so that the application server disconnects a TCP connection to the terminal device. Therefore, after the terminal device enters the doze mode, the power consumption of the terminal device is further reduced. The embodiments of this application are used to reduce power consumption of the terminal device.
