Above-mentioned video data decision circuitry 211 electrically connects with the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption, source/drain sequential control circuit 213 and low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 respectively.The source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption electrically connects with described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223 respectively.Source/drain sequential control circuit 213 electrically connects with described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223 respectively.Low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 electrically connects with the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption, described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223 respectively.
In addition, the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of the reducing power consumption of aforesaid time schedule controller 21 is suitable for controlling described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223 start makes the number of channel that writes the data number of times and/or be less than the gate line number of liquid crystal panel 24 of their number of data lines by being less than liquid crystal panel 24 drive this liquid crystal panel 24.On the other hand, data decision circuitry 211 receives a video data (not shown), and from then on the video data (not shown) analyzes an effective resolution parameter value, starts the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption again according to this effective resolution parameter value.As for detailed start-up course, after will being described in.
Fig. 4 shows the start process flow diagram of preferred embodiment of the present invention, and relevant its explanation please be in the lump with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.At first, video data decision circuitry 211 receives the video data and the synchronizing signal (step S405) of outside input.Then, whether 211 pairs of video datas of video data decision circuitry are judged, be full frame video data (step S410) to judge video data.
In present embodiment, video data decision circuitry 211 is that the video data (R, G, B) in data valid period (Data Enable) to a sliver carries out pointwise and judges, if the video data value of this line is 0 (value of R, G, B every bit is 0), represent that then the image frame that this line is sent is the black picture.Whereby, video data decision circuitry 211 just can (for example: the DVD film be judged some video data by above-mentioned means, it is all the black picture in two ends up and down, middle be image frame) several black pictures are arranged in the whole image frame (Frame) sent, and judge sliver be the black picture position institute wherein.In addition, in this way, video data decision circuitry 211 can be learnt in the present whole image frame, at a vertical synchronizing signal (V Sync) time in the valid data line number sent, that is video data decision circuitry 211 can be found out valid data line number in a whole image frame.
If this video data is judged as the full frame video data, then video data decision circuitry 211 starts source/drain sequential control circuit 213, make source/drain sequential control circuit 213 control described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221 carry out normal operation (step S415).
If this video data is judged as non-full frame video data, then video data decision circuitry 211 analyzes the effective resolution parameter value of video data by video data, for example: valid data line number/columns (step S420).Whether in addition, video data decision circuitry 211 also can continue video data is analyzed, till a default value, fixing with the effective resolution parameter value of confirming video data.
For example: whether video data decision circuitry 211 is carried out the pointwise judgement to each bar line, be valid data to judge this line.If sliver is the black picture, then represent this line may be non-valid data.If this sliver is not all to be the black picture, then represent this line may be valid data.In addition, video data decision circuitry 211 more can write down the non-valid data line number that it is judged by thread count 2111.For example: for the image frame of this class of DVD, video data decision circuitry 211 is by the line number of the non-valid data in upper end black picture and the lower end black picture in the thread count 2111 recording image pictures, then video data decision circuitry 211 is handled by comparer 2112, to obtain the valid data line number in a whole image frame.If through behind a plurality of image frames, the number of the valid data line of described image frame is all identical, the effective resolution parameter value of then representing the DVD film to be sent is fixing, and the quantity of wherein said image frame equals this default value.
Then, video data decision circuitry 211 judges that effective resolution is whether less than the resolution (step S425) of liquid crystal panel 24.If the effective resolution in the video data is less than the resolution of liquid crystal panel 24, then video data decision circuitry 211 starts the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption, make the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption control described grid drive chip 231,232,233 reduce its conducting number of times with described source driving chip 221,222,223, with the power dissipation of reduction driving circuit, and also can reduce clock/data output number of times (step S430) of delivering to driving circuit.
For example: effective resolution is during less than the resolution of liquid crystal panel 24, video data decision circuitry 211 is sent the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of effective resolution parameter value to reducing power consumption, make the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption produce non-full frame drive control signal/data and a new data time sequence according to this effective resolution parameter value, for described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223 operate according to these non-full frame drive control signal/data and new data time sequence.
If the effective resolution parameter value that video data decision circuitry 211 is provided is 640 * 480, and the resolution of liquid crystal panel 24 is 1024 * 768, then the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption is sent N+480 grid control signal to described grid drive chip 231,232,233, and the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption is sent M * 3+640 * 3 source control signal, wherein N is the start line number of effective viewing area, and M counts the initial of effective viewing area.
If the effective resolution in the video data is greater than the resolution of liquid crystal panel 24, then video data decision circuitry 211 starts source/drain time schedule controller 213, to control described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221 carries out normal operation (step S435).
Because the liquid crystal molecule in the liquid crystal panel 24 can't bear DC voltage for a long time, so after video data decision circuitry 211 starts the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption, liquid crystal molecule in the non-display area of liquid crystal panel 24 must carry out voltage to be upgraded, to avoid deterioration.Therefore, the present invention also provides a low frequency full frame driving mechanism, with the liquid crystal molecule deterioration in the non-display area of avoiding liquid crystal panel 24.
Fig. 5 shows the process flow diagram of low frequency full frame driving mechanism, and relevant its explanation please be in the lump with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.After video data decision circuitry 211 starts the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption, 214 runnings of video data decision circuitry 211 control low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit.At first, the timer 2141 of low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 pick up counting (step S505).Then, low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 is judged timer 2141, and whether timing is to a Preset Time (step S510), if timing is not to Preset Time as yet for timer 2141, then video data decision circuitry 211 continues the running (step S515) of the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of control reducing power consumption.If timer 2141 timing are to Preset Time, then low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 begins to send full frame drive control signal/data to described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223, keep liquid crystal molecule charge/discharge (step S520) to carry out low-frequency voltage renewal work.
Certainly, before low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 is sent full frame drive control signal/data, polarity decision circuitry 2142 must be judged the polarity of non-full frame drive control signal/data that the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption is provided earlier, when avoiding source/drain sequential control circuit 212 by reducing power consumption to switch to low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214, transmit the full frame drive control signal/data with wrong polarity produce the image flicker to liquid crystal molecule situation.Therefore, the polarity decision circuitry 2142 of low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 is judged the polarity of non-full frame drive control signal/data that the source/drain sequential control circuit 212 of reducing power consumption provided earlier, then low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 is exported full frame drive control signal/data again to described grid drive chip 231,232,233 and described source driving chip 221,222,223.
Low frequency full frame Drive and Control Circuit 214 is sent after full frame drive control signal/data, and timer 2141 is made zero, and lays equal stress on the New count time (step S530).
In order further to understand not existing together of the present invention and known technology, please be with reference to Fig. 6 A~Fig. 9, wherein Fig. 6 A, Fig. 6 B show the operating clock synoptic diagram of known source driving chip, Fig. 7 A, Fig. 7 B show the operating clock synoptic diagram of the source driving chip of preferred embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 8 shows the operating clock synoptic diagram of known grid drive chip, and Fig. 9 shows the operating clock synoptic diagram of the grid drive chip of preferred embodiment of the present invention.
In Fig. 6 A, if the resolution of liquid crystal panel is 1024 * 768, then no matter the effective resolution of video data is why, the initial pulse of known source driving chip always just begins to send at the 1st point of liquid crystal panel, and known source driving chip begins input by the 1st point and writes data (R, G, B), just export up to the 1024th point and to write data, to convert corresponding current potential to.Shown in Fig. 6 B, concerning whole image frame, need output to write data 768 times.
Relatively, in Fig. 7 A, if the resolution of liquid crystal panel is 1024 * 768, and the effective resolution of video data is 640 * 480 o'clock, then the initial pulse wave of the source driving chip that present embodiment provided up to the starting point of effective viewing area of liquid crystal panel (for example: the 193rd point) just begin to send, and begin input by the 193rd and write data (R, G, B), just export up to the 832nd and write data, to convert corresponding current potential to.And shown in Fig. 7 B, concerning whole image frame, only need export and write data 480 times.Therefore, in fact source driving chip lacks than 1024 * 3 channel (Channel) number that liquid crystal panel drove, that is known source driving chip is 1024 * 3 to channel (Channel) number that liquid crystal panel drove, and the source driving chip of present embodiment in fact to channel (Channel) number that liquid crystal panel drove less than 1024 * 3.
Similarly, in Fig. 8, if the resolution of liquid crystal panel is 1024 * 768, then no matter the effective resolution of video data is why, known grid drive chip is still sent grid control signal (GateClock) by article one line, therefore need send 768 grid control signals (Gate Clock), that is grid drive chip needs conducting (Turn On) 768 times.In addition, for known grid drive chip, (Output Enable OE) is electronegative potential to output enable signal forever.
Relatively, in Fig. 9, if the resolution of liquid crystal panel is 1024 * 768, and when the effective resolution of video data is 640 * 480, then the output enable signal of the grid drive chip that present embodiment provided is the effective resolution variation with video data, for example: only when 624 lines of the 145th line to the, its accurate position just is an electronegative potential to output enable signal.Therefore, for grid drive chip, only need to send grid control signal at the 145th~624 line.So in fact grid drive chip is lacked than 768 channel (Channel) number that liquid crystal panel drove.Because the conducting number of times of the gate/source chip for driving that present embodiment provided lacks than known gate/source chip for driving, therefore can reduce the power dissipation of driving circuit really, and also can reduce clock/data output number of times of delivering to driving circuit.
By above explanation as can be known, the time sequence controller grid utmost point/source driving chip provided by the present invention is only sent the necessary control signal to effective viewing area, and does not need whole image output control signal, to reach the power dissipation that significantly reduces driving circuit.
In addition, the time sequence controller grid utmost point/source driving chip provided by the present invention is only sent the necessary control signal to effective viewing area, and do not need whole image output control signal, significantly to reduce clock/data output number of times of delivering to source driving chip and grid drive chip.
The foregoing description only is to give an example for convenience of description, and the interest field that the present invention advocated should be as the criterion so that claim is described certainly, but not only limits to the foregoing description.
