Description

Flat display apparatus and control circuit thereof and control method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of flat display apparatus, control circuit and control method thereof, and be particularly related to a kind of flat display apparatus, control circuit and control method thereof of utilizing unlike signal to drive horizontal scanning line.
Background technology
Flat-panel screens (as display panels) is a kind of display device of extensive employing.Along with the extension of demand, flat-panel screens develops toward the medium size display screen of desktop computer and the large scale display screen of family's video display gradually from originally being used for the miniature dimensions display device of portable computer.When display size increases, how to keep the homogeneity on whole the demonstration just to become an important problem.
Along with the size of display increases, the quantity of unit (being commonly referred to as pixel (Pixel)) of show image of being used for that is comprised in the display also can and then roll up.Even do not increase the speed that image upgrades, only because the increase of pixel quantity will make the voltage level change of sweep signal must could satisfy the demand on showing more and more sooner.Yet, the homogeneity that the quick variation of voltage level can make panel show all suffers from a challenge on level and vertical direction, the problem that stored voltage changes in (feed-through) pixel that phenomenon caused is worn in the feedback that must solve the capacitance coupling effect generation that makes electric capacity because of the quick variation of voltage level exactly.
Please refer to Fig. 1, it is the circuit block diagram of traditional LCD.LCD 10 mainly comprises control circuit 100, data-driven module 110, grid electrode drive module 120 and display panel 130.Required control data when control circuit 100 receives video datas and various demonstration.Video data and part control data can Be Controlled circuit 100 be converted to the required signal of data-driven module 110 and transfer to data-driven module 110; The control data of another part then is converted into the required signal of grid electrode drive module 120 and transfers to grid electrode drive module 120.Data-driven module 110 is come driving data lines 112 and 114 according to received signal, and grid electrode drive module 120 comes driven sweep line 122 and 124 according to received signal.In display panel, near pixel of getting up with frame of broken lines of each self-forming confluce of each data line 112,114 and each sweep trace 122,124 is as pixel 132.
Please refer to Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B, wherein Fig. 2 A is the equivalent circuit diagram of a pixel in the LCD shown in Figure 1, and Fig. 2 B then is used for the used signal waveforms of driven sweep line 122 for the grid electrode drive module 120 among Fig. 1.Pixel 132 has comprised a thin film transistor (TFT) 200, liquid crystal capacitance C LC, storage capacitors C SAnd stray capacitance C GDThe grid 200c of thin film transistor (TFT) 200 is electrically coupled to sweep trace 122, and its source electrode 200a is electrically coupled to data line 114, and its drain electrode 200b is electrically coupled to liquid crystal capacitance C LC, storage capacitors C SAnd stray capacitance C GDAn end.Liquid crystal capacitance C LCWith storage capacitors C SThe other end be electrically coupled to common voltage V COM, stray capacitance C GDThe other end then be electrically coupled to sweep trace 122.When the signal as Fig. 2 B is applied on the sweep trace 122, after grid low-voltage Vgl arrives grid high voltage Vgh through rising edge RE, because grid 200c has been applied in grid high voltage Vgh, so thin film transistor (TFT) 200 meeting conductings; Otherwise, from grid high voltage Vgh through falling edge FE and after changing into grid low-voltage Vgl, because the voltage of grid 200c descends, so therefore thin film transistor (TFT) 200 will end.Yet, the stray capacitance C between grid 200c that the quick voltage variation of rising edge RE and falling edge FE can make at thin film transistor (TFT) 200 and the drain electrode 200b GDProduce capacitance coupling effect, and therefore changed the voltage of preserving in drain electrode 200b place originally, make liquid crystal capacitance C LCThe potential difference (PD) at two ends is different with the potential difference (PD) of estimating storage originally, and the gap between the potential difference (PD) that the potential difference (PD) of this physical holding of the stock and script are estimated to store is called feedback and wears voltage (feed-throughvoltage) V f
If voltage V is worn in the feedback in whole viewing area 130 fAll identical, so such problem ratio is easier to solve, but voltage V is worn in the feedback that each pixel faced in the in fact whole viewing area 130 fBut more or less exist some gaps.In the horizontal direction, voltage V is worn in feedback fUnevenness mainly from the signal delay on the sweep trace because this make on same the sweep trace thin film transistor (TFT) by the time performance inconsistent; Difference on the vertical direction is then mainly from pressure drop that electric current and resistance caused.Because grid high voltage Vgh on the sweep trace and grid low-voltage Vgl be when being applied to panel, can be because use various different conductors to produce pressure drop as resistance that cabling produced, these leads may be plain conductor or film wire etc.In any case when carrying out the signal transmission through above-mentioned lead, grid pressure reduction (Vgh-Vgl) can reduce gradually along with the downward transmission of voltage signal.Voltage V is worn in feedback fCan obtain by following formula:
V f = ( V gh - V gl ) C GD C S + C LC + C GC , ON
C wherein GD, ONStray capacitance C when being thin film transistor (TFT) 200 conductings GDSize.This shows that if grid pressure reduction changes in vertical direction to some extent, then voltage V is worn in feedback fUnavoidable ground can be changed.
In order to address the above problem, prior art provides many corresponding solutions.These solutions all are that to wear demonstration that phenomenon causes at the feedback on the horizontal scanning line inhomogeneous and propose, and have reached the effect of improving to a certain degree really.For example United States Patent (USP) the 6th, 359, and No. 607, the 6th, 867, No. 760, the 7th, 027, No. 024 and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2006/0077163 etc. have all proposed corresponding solution.Yet process experiment showed, that these solutions can only solve the uneven problem of demonstration on the horizontal direction, and can not solve the uneven problem of demonstration of vertical direction.As following table one show 40 inches panels use during drive signal, at the grid pressure reduction of each regional gained (supposing display panel is divided into 4 * 4 block):
Table one

6.00 6.27 6.31 6.25
6.00 6.26 6.31 6.24
6.02 6.28 6.33 6.28
After having used the technology that for example United States Patent (USP) is provided for the 6th, 359, No. 607, same panel at the grid pressure reduction of each regional gained then shown in following table two:
Table two
6.23 6.29 6.35 6.31

6.26 6.32 6.37 6.33
6.27 6.33 6.37 6.37
As from the foregoing, using United States Patent (USP) the 6th, 359, after the technology that No. 607 are provided, grid pressure reduction on the horizontal direction or to a certain degree improvement is arranged, but in vertical direction, the variation of grid pressure reduction does not then not only improve, and the variation of the grid pressure reduction the when variation of the grid pressure reduction of some part is also than the former present technique of use on the contrary comes greatlyyer.In other words, after use this technology, the show uniformity of vertical direction is variation on the contrary.

Embodiment
About aforementioned and other technology contents, characteristics and effect of the present invention, in the DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED of following cooperation reference diagram, can clearly present.
Please refer to Fig. 3, it is a circuit block diagram according to an embodiment of the invention.In the present embodiment, flat display apparatus 30 has comprised display panel 300, data-driven module 31 and control circuit 32.In display panel 300, be provided with many data lines 340,342 and 344, multi-strip scanning line 350,352 and 354, and be positioned at each data line and near the pixel cell 360,362 and 364 of each sweep trace intersection.Data-driven module 31 has comprised a plurality of data-drivens unit 310,312 and 314, and control circuit 32 has comprised a plurality of drive element of the grid 320,322 and 324 and signal generator module 330.Each pixel cell 360,362 and 364 equivalent circuit diagram are as described above shown in Fig. 2 A, do not repeat them here, the quantity of above-mentioned data line, sweep trace, pixel cell, data-driven unit, drive element of the grid and signal generator module is in order to convenient explanation embodiment, but the quantity when not limiting practical application with this.
As shown in the figure, each data line 340,342 and 344 extends in parallel on display panel 300 along specific direction (claiming " first direction " later on), and each sweep trace 350,352 and 354 then extends in parallel on display panel 300 along another specific direction (claiming " second direction " later on).Data line 340,342 and 344 used image data when transmitting show image respectively, 350,352 and 354 of sweep traces are used for transmitting the sweep signal that whether starts pixel cell 360,362 and 364 respectively.
When using sweep trace 350,352 and 354 to transmit the signal that starts pixel cell 360,362 and 364, drive element of the grid 320,322 and 324 must provide corresponding grid high level voltage signal to sweep trace 350,352 and 354.In the present embodiment, the grid high level voltage signal that these are provided by drive element of the grid 320,322 and 324, and be used for controlling these drive element of the grid 320,322 and 324 enable signals that when move, generate by signal generator module 330.Enable signal is by in regular turn from drive element of the grid 320 toward drive element of the grid 322 and 324 direction transmission, after a drive element of the grid (for example drive element of the grid 322) is activated because of enable signal, that drive element of the grid will make received grid high level voltage signal be able to by and be passed on the corresponding sweep trace (for example sweep trace 352).In addition, in order to wear phenomenon in response to feedback in various degree, signal generator module 330 will produce two kinds of different grid high level voltage signals at least to offer drive element of the grid 320,322 and 324.
Please merge with reference to Fig. 4, it is the oscillogram of two kinds of different grid high level voltage signals according to an embodiment of the invention.Grid high level voltage signal 400 shown in Fig. 4 is identical with 410 work period, and the falling edge 400a with pitch angle is also identical with the slope of 410a, but this duration with the falling edge 400a at pitch angle and 410a is inequality.In the present embodiment, the duration of falling edge 400a is t 1, the duration of falling edge 410a then is t 2, and t 1>t 2Because voltage V is worn in the feedback that each pixel cell faced in display panel 300 fMore or less exist some gaps.Especially, difference in vertical direction is mainly from pressure drop that conductor resistance caused, because grid high voltage Vgh on the sweep trace and grid low-voltage Vgl are when injecting panel, can experience the resistance that metal routing or film wire (on glass substrate) are caused, so grid pressure reduction (Vgh-Vgl) can reduce gradually along with the downward transmission of voltage signal.Voltage V is worn in feedback fCan obtain by following formula:
V f = ( V gh - V gl ) C GD C S + C LC + C GC , ON
C GD, ONStray capacitance C when being thin film transistor (TFT) 200 conductings shown in Fig. 2 A GDSize.Therefore, from signal generator module 330 drive element of the grid (as in Fig. 3, drive element of the grid 322 is compared just farther from signal generator module with drive element of the grid 320) far away, because its grid pressure reduction diminishes, so voltage V is worn in feedback fAlso can and then diminish.Be conceived to this, possess grid high level voltage signal 400 (claiming first grid high level voltage signal later on) than the long duration falling edge and can be provided to from the nearer drive element of the grid of signal generator module 330, the grid high level voltage signal 410 (claiming second grid high level voltage signal later on) that possesses shorter duration falling edge then is provided to from signal generator module 330 drive element of the grid far away.
Below will illustrate and how produce the aforementioned grid high level voltage signal 400 that possesses the falling edge of various durations.Please refer to Fig. 5, it is for producing the process flow diagram of the grid high level voltage signal of the falling edge that possesses various durations according to an embodiment of the invention.
In step S500, produced an original grid high level voltage that uses as benchmark earlier.Next, in step S510, then produced a plurality of top rake control signals, and each top rake control signal has the different work periods.After original grid high level voltage and top rake control signal are generated, flow process just can enter step S520, make original grid high level voltage respectively with reference to each top rake signal, make the corresponding top rake signal of an original grid high level voltage whereby, and make this original grid high level voltage in the work period of pairing top rake signal, progressively reduce voltage, form a corresponding grid high level voltage signal.
Please refer to Fig. 6, it is for producing the waveform relationship synoptic diagram of the grid high level voltage signal of the falling edge that possesses various durations according to an embodiment of the invention.The original grid high level voltage that is produced in step S500 i.e. any in as shown in Figure 6 the original grid high level voltage 600,610 or 620, and its amplitude shakes between voltage Vgh and Vgl.The top rake control signal of being mentioned among the step S510 specifically then can be as shown in Figure 6 top rake control signal 600a, 610a and 620a, it has different work period t respectively 3, t 4With t 5As shown in Figure 6, original grid high level voltage 600 in the present embodiment corresponds to top rake control signal 600a, original grid high level voltage 610 corresponds to top rake control signal 610a, and original grid high level voltage 620 then corresponds to top rake control signal 620a.The magnitude of voltage of original grid high level voltage 600 is at the work period t of top rake control signal 600a 3Within descend gradually with a fixing slope, finally formed grid high level voltage signal 600b with falling edge 601.Similarly, the magnitude of voltage of original grid high level voltage 610 is at the work period t of top rake control signal 610a 4Within descend gradually with same slope, finally formed grid high level voltage signal 610b with falling edge 611; The magnitude of voltage of original grid high level voltage 620 is at the work period t of top rake control signal 620a 5Within descend gradually with same slope, finally formed grid high level voltage signal 620b with falling edge 621.
Though utilized a plurality of original grid high level voltages to produce corresponding grid high level voltage signal in the embodiment shown in fig. 6, but in fact also can only produce an original grid high level voltage as shown in Figure 7, again this original grid high level voltage is sent simultaneously to a plurality of circuit carrying out alignment processing with aforesaid each top rake control signal respectively, thereby produce different grid high level voltage signals.
Please refer to Fig. 7, it is the circuit block diagram of signal generator module according to an embodiment of the invention.Top rake control signal generating unit 700 produces a plurality of different top rake control signal YC1, YC2 to YCn, and these top rake control signals YC1, YC2 are provided to grid high level voltage signal generation unit 710 to YCn.Grid high level voltage signal generation unit 710 can utilize original signal generation unit 712 to produce an original grid high level voltage as shown in Figure 6 in inside earlier, and utilize this original grid high level voltage, in a plurality of treatment circuits 714~718, received top rake control signal YC1, YC2 are handled to YCn, thereby obtain corresponding grid high level voltage signal VG1, VG2 to VGn.Certainly, grid high level voltage signal generation unit 710 used original grid high level voltages also can be earlier generate from other circuit of flat display apparatus and offer grid high level voltage signal generation unit 710 again and use, and the circuit diagram shown in this embodiment does not limit the invention in the circuit design mode when implementing.
Except circuit and method that above-described embodiment provided, on execution details of the present invention, also have many parts that can trickle adjustment.For instance, please refer to Fig. 8, it is the circuit block diagram of control circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention.In the present embodiment, signal generator module 830 provides different grid high level voltage signal to drive element of the grid 820,822 and 824 equally.Drive element of the grid 320,322 among Fig. 3 and 324 uses same electrical path to be electrically coupled to signal generator module 330, so each grid high level voltage signal that signal generator module 300 is provided can all be received by these drive element of the grid; Compare with Fig. 3, drive element of the grid 820,822 and 824 in the control circuit 82 shown in Figure 8 is to use different electrical paths to be electrically coupled to signal generator module 830, so each grid high level voltage signal can be delivered in the corresponding drive element of the grid independently respectively.
In addition, for example can make a plurality of drive element of the grid consist of one group of drive element of the grid, and make this group drive element of the grid use same grid high level voltage signal; Or the top rake control signal generating unit 700 among Fig. 7 can utilize mode in proper order to export each top rake control signal YC1, YC2 one by one to YCn, but not uses the parallel way of output as shown in Figure 7; Or the circuit design position etc. of signal generator module for example, can be adjusted being enough to reach under the prerequisite of technological core of the present invention.
