Fig. 1 schematically illustrates a flowchart of a brightness adjustment method of a display device according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 1, in step S110, a first parameter corresponding to a slider for adjusting the overall brightness of the display screen is received.
In an exemplary embodiment, the receiving a first parameter corresponding to a slider for adjusting the overall brightness of the display screen includes: transmitting the first parameter to a bottom layer control program of the display device through a sliding bar for sliding and adjusting the overall brightness of the display screen; the bottom layer control program transmits the first parameter to a driving chip of the display device; the driving chip controls the register through the time schedule controller to realize the brightness adjustment of the display screen.
For example, the user opens "setting" - > "brightness" in the mobile phone, slides the sliding bar dimming bar in the mobile phone for adjusting the overall brightness of the mobile phone, and the level parameter corresponding to the sliding bar is the first parameter.
In step S120, when the gray-scale value of the first parameter is within a preset first interval range, a first brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, the first brightness adjustment mode calculates a corresponding value of a register to adjust the brightness of the display screen according to the gray scale value of the first parameter.
In an exemplary embodiment, wherein the number of gradations of the first parameter is 256 gradations from 0 to 255, the first interval is (10,64 ].
The colors displayed by the display are combined by different gray levels of the three primary RGB sub-pixels, and the variation of the gray level of each sub-pixel is known as "gray level". For a 16.7M-bit color 8-bit panel, the sub-pixels can exhibit a gradation level of 256 (i.e., 8 powers of 2), i.e., 256 gray levels. The three primary color sub-pixels with different gray levels form 16.7M color pixels, and the color pixels form the color picture of the screen.
In step S130, when the gray-scale value of the first parameter is within a preset second interval range, a second brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
The reciprocal of the Frame rate is the Frame period Tf, for example, the Frame rate is 60Hz and the Frame period is 1/60sec, ideally, the whole Frame period Tf can be used to light the display panel, but considering the synchronization or under the scanning application or the circuit limitation, there will be some time that is not available to emit light in the whole Frame period Tf actually, the non-emitting time is defined as Toff, and the emitting time in the Frame period Tf is defined as T, the fixed current I is used in the emitting time T and the percentage of the emitting time to the emitting time is adjusted, the intensity of the emitting light (gray scale) can be adjusted, the general display defines n-bit gray scale, that is, the emitting time T is divided into n-th power gray scale equal parts of 2 or (2^ n-1) gray scales, the time length of each gray scale equal part is T1, T1 is T/(2^ n) or T/(2^ n-1), and determines the intensity of light emission by determining several gray scale equal parts to be emitted according to the value of n-bit gray scale signal (or called brightness data) D [ n-1:0 ].
In the embodiment of the present invention, the intensity of light emission is determined by determining the number of gray scale equal parts to be emitted only by the value of the 8-bit gray scale signal D [7:0], but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the corresponding number of bits can be specifically selected according to the requirements of the system.
For example: the ideal 4-bit gray scale, i.e. n is 4, and T is Tf, the light-emitting time T is divided into 2^4 ^ 16 gray scale equal parts, each gray scale equal part time T1 is 1/16T, the brightness setting value is represented by D [4-1:0] ═ D [3:0], and when D [3:0] ═ 0001, the light is emitted for a time T1, so as to obtain the brightness of 1/16 with the maximum brightness. Similarly, when D [3:0] ═ 0010, light is emitted for two times T1, to obtain 2/16 of maximum brightness, and so on to 15/16 of maximum brightness. Similarly, if the light-emitting time T is divided into 2^4-1 ^ 15 gray-scale equal parts, each gray-scale equal part time T1 ^ 1/15 ^ T, the brightness setting value is represented by D [3:0], when D [3:0] - > 0001, the light is emitted for a time T1 to obtain the brightness of 1/15 of the maximum brightness, and so on to 15/15 of the maximum brightness.
The driving circuit of the display device is used for generating driving current within the luminous time according to the gray scale signal so as to drive the display panel to emit light. Wherein the gray scale signal has n bits, n is a positive integer greater than 1, and the light-emitting time is divided into 2^ n or (2^ n-1) gray scale equally-divided times.
The driving circuit is used for generating a driving current within the luminous time according to the gray scale signal representing the brightness data so as to drive the display panel to emit light. For the application of n-bit gray scale, the gray scale signal is represented by n bits of binary signal, n is a positive integer greater than 1, and the gray scale signal (or called as brightness setting value) is defined as D [ n-1:0] to represent the gray scale (or brightness) of the display panel. The light-emission time T within the frame period Tf is divided into 2^ n gray scale equal parts or (2^ n-1) gray scale equal parts, each of which is T1 ^ T/(2^ n) or T/(2^ n-1). For the case where the light-emission time T is divided into (2^ n-1) gray-scale equal parts and each gray-scale equal part time T1 ^ T/(2^ n-1), the principle is similar, and the difference is only that the light-emission time T is divided into the equal parts less than one (i.e. the difference between 2^ n and (2^ n-1) is only one divided equal part), and the principle of signal setting is approximately the same as the principle.
In an exemplary embodiment, wherein the second range of intervals is (64,128] and (192,255 ].
In an exemplary embodiment, the second brightness adjustment mode is to keep the gray scale value of the first parameter, obtain the corresponding brightness parameter according to the first parameter, and enter the black insertion mode through a control signal of the display device to achieve the brightness parameter. The black insertion refers to that several groups of black pictures are fixedly transmitted in a frame of pictures to improve the low gray level mura phenomenon. mura is a class of bright and dark spots.
In an exemplary embodiment, the reaching of the brightness parameter by a control signal of the display device entering a black insertion mode includes: setting the black insertion quantity of each frame of the control signal in a driving initialization program of the display screen; setting the duty ratio of the control signal to the brightness parameter in a backlight adjustment function of the display screen.
The black insertion technique mainly utilizes the presentation of black pictures to eliminate the integration effect of human eyes.
In the driving initialization program, the sliding dimming bar modifies the level parameter, and the STE is more finely changed in the black insertion adjustment process through an algorithm, so that an adjustment parameter is added, the brightness adjustment and the black insertion of a normal AMOLED (organic light Emitting Diode) or OLED (organic light Emitting Diode) simultaneously affect the brightness of a screen, and a brightness adjustment curve becomes smoother.
For example, through the adjustment of the mobile phone system software, the connection of the brightness adjustment curve with the black insertion function is smoother, and the low-gray-scale jitter disappears. The underlying implementation of both brightness adjustment and black insertion can be implemented in the LCM initial part, where black insertion sets the number of black insertions per frame, and the STE on duty cycle is inserted in the backlight setting function. In order to solve the problems of brightness jitter and non-uniformity, an algorithm is added into the backlight setting function, so that the change curve of the STE is smoother. Where LCM initial is the drive initialization program for the screen. The backlight setting function is a backlight adjusting function, and since android currently has no special program, the screen brightness adjustment of the OLED is directly realized in the original functional part. Because of the association to the upper application layer, direct modification of the bottom layer can be achieved. The specific value of the stem duty cycle is a range, and different driver chips have different requirements. For example, an a-chip may require a 50% duty cycle to achieve a 50nits luminance, but a B-chip may require a 60% duty cycle.
The lcd screen configuration is called LCM at Mtk. LCM _ initial, like its name, is primarily the initialization operation for the screen.
In a hardware driving part of a screen, an algorithm is needed to calculate the optimal matching proportion of the two modes, a large amount of tests are needed, and the debugging can be normally conducted if the debugging is successful.
In an exemplary embodiment, further comprising: and when the gray scale value of the first parameter is in a preset third interval range, calling a third brightness adjusting mode to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, wherein the number of gray levels of the first parameter is 256 gray levels from 0 to 255, the third interval ranges from (128,192).
In an exemplary embodiment, further comprising: and when the gray scale value of the first parameter is in a preset fourth interval range, calling a fourth brightness adjusting mode to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, wherein the number of gray levels of the first parameter is 256 gray levels from 0 to 255, the fourth interval ranges from more than 255 to less than 10.
In an exemplary embodiment, wherein the display device is a self-light emitting device, the control signal is an STE signal in the driving chip that controls brightness of the display screen.
The embodiment of the invention can be applied to all self-luminous devices such as AMOLED and OLED.
OLED display technology differs from conventional LCD display in that it does not require a backlight, and uses a very thin coating of organic material and a glass substrate, which emit light when current flows through them. Moreover, the OLED display screen can be made lighter and thinner, the visual angle is larger, and the electric energy can be obviously saved. OLED displays cannot be changed in brightness by adding or subtracting backlights as conventional LCD liquid crystal displays do. Since each pixel in the OLED screen emits light independently. The advantage of an OLED screen is that it may not be suitable for backlighting the screen, which may significantly improve image quality and increase battery life, but it becomes very difficult to change the screen brightness.
The OLED display screen comprises a main control module, a pixel array and a driving chip used for driving the pixel points to emit light, wherein the driving chip is respectively connected with the pixel array and the driving circuit, the main control module comprises a scanning module and a time adjusting module, the scanning module scans each pixel point to obtain the current and the voltage of each pixel point, the power of each pixel point in the pixel array is calculated according to the scanning result, the time adjusting module controls the driving module to adjust the light emitting time of each pixel point according to the power of each pixel point, and the adjusted light emitting time is in inverse proportion to the power.
The main control module can be realized by a single chip microcomputer, the driving module comprises a row driver and a column driver, the single chip microcomputer is connected with the row driver and the column driver, and the row driver and the column driver are connected with the OLED pixel array. The singlechip sends out a command, and the working voltage of the OLED enters the singlechip for A/D conversion after being selected by an A/D channel. The single chip microcomputer obtains the working voltage of the corresponding OLED pixel point. And finally, the singlechip calculates according to the acquired voltage or current, and adjusts the light-emitting time of each pixel point according to the calculation result.
Fig. 2 schematically illustrates a flowchart of a brightness adjustment method of a display device according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 2, in step S210, a level parameter corresponding to a slider for adjusting the overall brightness of the display screen is received.
The level parameters are divided into different intervals, for example, the division intervals are 192-. When the level parameter varies in different interval ranges, the following processing is performed.
In step S220, it is determined whether the level parameter is greater than 255 or less than 10. If yes, entering the next step; otherwise, the process goes to step S230.
In step S230, the fourth brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth brightness adjustment mode includes:
when level <10, i.e. the user slides the slider to turn the screen brightness down to below 10, the system keeps the screen brightness fixed and at the lowest setting of level-10. Because it is generally not recommended to set the brightness value too low, the user will not be able to easily see the screen to operate the mobile phone;
when the level is 255, because the level is 255, the maximum value of the mobile phone brightness gray scale, if the level is larger than the value due to abnormality, the system keeps the maximum brightness of 255.
In step S240, whether the level parameter is within the range of the (10, 64) interval is judged, if yes, the next step is carried out, otherwise, the step S260 is skipped.
In step S250, the first brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, the first brightness adjustment mode includes:
when the level is lower than 64, the corresponding brightness is already low to a range where the human eye is sensitive, and at this time, if the screen brightness is adjusted by black insertion, the human eye will feel a shaking sensation, so that the brightness adjustment needs to be performed by returning to the normal mode (i.e. the mode that the screen brightness is changed by sliding the sliding bar, which is usually used).
In step S260, whether the level parameter is within the range of (64, 128) or (192,255) is judged, if yes, the next step is carried out, otherwise, the step S280 is skipped.
In step S270, the second brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, the second brightness adjustment mode includes:
when 192< level < ═ 255, the range is the brightest part of the screen, and black insertion is selected to realize brightness adjustment in the part in consideration of the visual difference between black insertion and normal mode brightness adjustment, the method specifically comprises the following steps:
keeping other parameters influencing the brightness unchanged, in particular to a 51 register when the brightness is adjusted in a normal mode; calculating a setting value corresponding to a sliding bar of the current client to obtain a corresponding brightness parameter; entering a black insertion mode, and measuring the pulse width of the STE control signal for black insertion by an instrument to reach the target brightness; the current state is kept unchanged.
The brightness change value caused by black insertion is step-like, and jitter appears in a region sensitive to low gray scales, but cannot be sensed by human eyes at high gray scales. In the normal brightness adjustment mode, the brightness change is linear, and the method is more suitable for low gray scale adjustment.
Similarly, when 64< level < ═ 128, the luminance continues to be adjusted in a black-inserted manner in this luminance range:
keeping other parameters influencing the brightness unchanged, in particular to a 51 register when the brightness is adjusted in a normal mode; calculating the setting value of the current client to obtain a corresponding brightness parameter; entering a black insertion mode, and measuring the STE pulse width of black insertion by an instrument to reach the target brightness; the current state is kept unchanged.
In step S280, whether the level parameter is within the range of (128,192) is judged, if yes, the next step is carried out, otherwise, the step S2100 is skipped.
In step S290, the third brightness adjustment mode is invoked to adjust the brightness of the display screen.
In an exemplary embodiment, the third brightness adjustment mode includes:
when 128< level < ═ 192, to ensure the smoothness of the luminance change curve, the STE pulse width adjustment is not performed in this range: keeping the STE pulse width unchanged in order for STE not to affect the next operation; obtaining a level value, calculating 51 a corresponding value of a register (the same as an LCD mode and a common mode), and adjusting the screen brightness; 51 the register parameter values are unchanged.
In step S2100, the process ends.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a brightness adjustment curve without black insertion.
In the example of 256 gray scales with the luminance of 0-255, the abscissa of fig. 3 is the number of gray scales, and the ordinate is the luminance variation parameter. The relationship between the gray scale number and the brightness change parameter is that the smoother the curve is, the more uniform the brightness change is, and both of them will affect the curve.
Under the condition of no black insertion, the brightness adjustment curve is smooth as shown by Fun-1, and the brightness change is smooth without shaking or jumping feeling when the dimming bar is slid. But this approach cannot avoid some mura phenomenon of AMOLEDs and OLEDs at low gray scales. The mura phenomenon is complicated and is generally seen easily at low gray levels due to process problems. In the embodiment of the present invention, the gray levels are relatively high and low.
Fig. 4A is a timing chart of luminance adjustment when no black frame is inserted.
The display device mainly comprises a display panel, a source electrode driver, a grid electrode driver and a time schedule controller. The timing control signal output by the timing controller mainly comprises STV/STE signals and the like. STV and STE are control signals for AMOLED and OLED. The STV signal is a field sync signal, i.e. a start signal of each frame of image, and each frame of image has a corresponding pulse in the signal. STE is one of control signals for controlling screen brightness inside the driver chip, and can be changed by a register.
Fig. 4B is a timing chart of luminance adjustment during black frame insertion.
To optimize this problem, the STE black frame insertion method is combined with the brightness adjustment of the level parameter, as shown in FIG. 4B. The traditional voltage adjusting mode is an analog mode, is uniformly changed and can realize smooth transition of voltage, but black insertion is actually adjusted in a digital mode and is relatively jumped to change, and brightness is actually changed in a step mode, so when the brightness adjustment is integrated into the black insertion mode, brightness changes at a joint position and a low gray level position are large, the brightness is not uniformly transited but jumped by shaking, and a user can feel that a screen is flickering instead of uniform natural transition. The brightness adjustment curve at this time is Fun-4.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a brightness adjustment curve after black insertion without using the brightness adjustment method of the display device of the present disclosure. Fig. 6 schematically shows a luminance adjustment curve diagram based on the luminance adjustment method of the display device of fig. 2. The adjusted result is Fun-5, for example, and the comparison with Fun-4 shows that the brightness adjustment curve is much smoother.
Fig. 7 schematically illustrates a block diagram of a brightness adjustment system of a display device according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 7, the system includes: the receiving module 710 is configured to receive a first parameter corresponding to a slider for adjusting the overall brightness of the display screen; a first brightness adjusting module 720, configured to adjust the brightness of the display screen by using a first brightness adjusting mode when the gray scale value of the first parameter is within a preset first interval range; the second brightness adjusting module 730 is configured to invoke a second brightness adjusting mode to adjust the brightness of the display screen when the gray scale value of the first parameter is within a preset second interval range.
In an exemplary embodiment, the second brightness adjustment mode is to maintain a gray scale value of the first parameter, obtain a corresponding brightness parameter according to the first parameter, and enter a black insertion mode through a control signal of the display device to achieve the brightness parameter, and the second brightness adjustment module includes: the black insertion quantity setting unit is used for setting the black insertion quantity of each frame of the control signal in a driving initialization program of the display screen; and the duty ratio adjusting unit is used for setting the duty ratio of the control signal in a backlight adjusting function of the display screen to reach the brightness parameter.
