Embodiment
Preferable enforcement profit of the present invention can be described in detail as follows.Yet except the content of describing in detail, the present invention can also be widely implements at other embodiment, and scope of the present invention do not limited, and it is as the criterion with claim of the present invention.
Fig. 2 A is the synoptic diagram of the LCD display system that can be applicable to portable type electronic product of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.Wherein, first random access memory 222 is used for receiving image data, is write earlier in first random access memory 222 by the image data of processor 220 through cpu i/f 221 asynchronous inputs.224 of second random access memory are the image datas that stores previous picture, required former frame image information in the time of can providing over-drive operation.226 of comparison means as above-mentioned clock controller T-con, in order to first image data of storage in synchronous comparison first random access memory 222 and second image data of second random access memory, 224 storages, and comparative result exported a controlling signal, and comparative result is sent to the drive unit 228 of liquid crystal panel.Drive unit 228 is as gate drive circuit, in order to drive panel show image picture.Under the normal running, give the panel liquid crystal born of the same parents and desire the rated voltage that display pixel conforms to; When the desire display pixel meets the condition of overdriving, provide the liquid crystal pixel of big voltage with this pixel correspondence of overdriving.Different with the structure of existing technology, comprised two random access memory 222,224 among the embodiment.Below how the system of key diagram 2A is made over-drive operation.
According to above-mentioned, with reference to figure 2B, the image data 260 of input writes in first random access memory 222 arbitrarily.In an embodiment, store a complete image picture in first random access memory 222, that is the image data of a frame.The output 2208 of first random access memory 222, that is the output of picture (frame) is controlled by internal system clock (not accompanying drawing) at present, and the image data (scanning sequence 2204) that is stored in first random access memory 222 by scanning in regular turn constantly produces.Scanning sequence 2004 and write-in program 2002 and asynchronous.Each scanning sequence 2204 has scanned first random access memory 222, promptly finishes the image scan program of a frame.
Be noted that the write-in program 2202 and the scanning sequence 2204 of first random access memory 222 need have mechanism to avoid the image data of the same pixel of access simultaneously.One implementation method as, with scanning sequence 2204 as yet not the storage address of a plurality of pixels (or multi-strip scanning line) of scanning be set at forbidden data and write, make image data when scanning sequence 2202 has scanned corresponding stored device address, just can write first random access memory 222.The method is simpler, only needs to be controlled in by internal clocking to forbid in the special time that some storage address of access can implement.The relevant mechanism of the mutually same storage address of access simultaneously of avoiding should be well known to those skilled in the art, and is not giving unnecessary details in this.
Different with known liquid crystal display systems structure, the present invention is not that the image data output 2208 of direct acquisition first random access memory 222 is to drive panel, but before exporting liquid crystal panel to, compare one by one pixel at a time with the former frame image data that is stored in second random access memory 224 in advance, with in after carry out over-drive operation.Wherein, scanning sequence 2204 and 2206 is synchronously.The former frame image data that second random access memory 224 stores, in can carrying out at the scanning sequence 2204 of first random access memory 222 or afterwards, be copied to second random access memory 224 (reproducer 2210) by first random access memory 222.For example, the data that the scanning that each scanning sequence 2204 is finished a frame is about to be stored in first random access memory 222 copy to second random access memory 224, as the reference relatively of next picture.
Comparison means 226 compares the image pixel of present frame and former frame in regular turn, thereby determines whether the liquid crystal pixel of an image pixel correspondence will do over-drive operation.Relatively can a pixel, the image data of one scan line or a block goes comparison, the present invention does not limit.228 comparative results according to comparison means 226 of drive unit drive liquid crystal panel, and the liquid crystal pixel of eligible (pixel intensity of present frame is bright than former frame) is promptly made over-drive operation and given big voltage, and other then still drives according to normal mode.
And flow process of the present invention can be with reference to figure 3, and the time with three frames in the accompanying drawing is example, and previous column is first random access memory 222, and the image data of input is temporary in earlier wherein; Next classifies second random access memory 224 as, stores the image data of last picture; And middle row are the output of drive unit 228.
At the beginning, in frame one, what be stored in first random access memory 222 is blank picture.And do not contain the information of former frame in second random access memory 224, so the output of drive unit 228 directly shows blank.As described above, after the image data that has scanned first random access memory, 222 1 pixels, one scan line or a block, system will be copied to second random access memory 224 (step 300) automatically, as the reference relatively of next picture.
In the time interval of frame one and frame two, (for example the English alphabet A of accompanying drawing, its brightness is 128) writes first random access memory 224 to suppose that image data is arranged.When frame two, according to the present invention, the image of the image of systematic comparison (step 310) first random access memory 222 and second random access memory 224 of frame one decides output.With 2 of C, D in the accompanying drawing is example, and the brightness of the pixel that C is ordered when frame two during with former frame is identical, so over-drive operation is not made in the output that C is ordered; And the D point is the pixel of English alphabet A, and the pixel corresponding with preceding frame compared secretly, the D point so output the time is overdrived.Generally speaking, relatively export as the darker English alphabet A of accompanying drawing the back with preceding frame.Similarly, system is copied to second random access memory 224 (step 312) with the image data that first random access memory 222 stores.
And it is identical during with frame two in the image drawing face of frame three, the first random access memory 222 input.Be similarly C, D 2 points, compare (step 312) with former frame and be not inconsistent the condition of overdriving, so drive unit 228 is not done the output of overdriving when frame three, and the image data of first random access memory 222 is copied to second random access memory 224 (step 304) subsequently.
Comprehensively above-mentioned, the invention provides a kind of display driving system that can be applicable to the LCD of small portable electronic product, still kept the structure of asynchronous transmission interface.By the structural design of dual-memory, allow the liquid crystal panel of small portable electronic product also can do over-drive operation.In preferred embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 A, wherein two random access memory 222 and 224, comparison means 226 can be integrated in the identical product (as being integrated into a drive IC) with drive unit 228.As everyone knows, electronic product is assembled by different vendor, multiple product usually, and as mobile phone, its display panel, panel driving IC, processor, motherboard or the like can be made by different vendor.Therefore, the present invention allows IC design manufacturer (or panel manufacturers) can design the drive IC (or liquid crystal panel) that makes new advances alone, do not change whole display system architectures and do not need processor, motherboard to cooperate, can improve liquid crystal response speed as over-drive operation to liquid crystal panel, it has a great advantage in that industry is commercial.
