Under the different situation of the value of these two pixels, when showing the previous row display pixel, there is potential difference (PD) 91,92 of 2 lead-out terminals, can think between these two terminals, to have capacity load LT1.Under this situation, the inconsistent comparative result of value of these 2 pixels of the 1st comparator circuit output expression.On the contrary, under the identical situation of the value of these two pixels, can think between these 2 lead-out terminals, not have capacity load, even because short circuit between terminal, electric charge does not move between these 2 lead-out terminals yet, can not tell on so can judge short circuit.Under this situation, the comparative result of the value unanimity of these 2 pixels of the 1st comparator circuit output expression.
The 2nd comparator circuit relatively belongs to the value (being stored in respectively in memory element 31 and the memory element 21) of the pixel D21 and the pixel D11 of same row.(combination G21) is all corresponding with lead-out terminal 91 for these 2 pixels.When the value difference of these 2 pixels meaned the conversion display line, the current potential of lead-out terminal 91 changed.The comparative result whether value of these 2 pixels of the 2nd comparator circuit output expression is consistent.
The logical and circuit is obtained the logical and of the comparative result of the 1st and the 2nd comparator circuit.Promptly, comparative result at the 1st comparator circuit shows inconsistent, and the comparative result of the 2nd comparator circuit shows that (it is different with the value of pixel D22 promptly to detect pixel D21 under the inconsistent situation, and under the pixel D21 situation different) with the value of pixel D11, the logical and circuit judges is for to set up short circuit at lead-out terminal 91 and 92 of lead-out terminals, and signal is judged in output, so that make control signal SD12, SE12 effectively carry out short circuit control.So, carry out short circuit control, promptly open output switch 71A, 71B, and close the control of short circuiting switch 81.Under this situation, between lead-out terminal 91 and lead-out terminal 92 with the current potential equalization.
Do not detect at the 2nd comparator circuit under the situation of difference, because before and after the conversion of display line, the pixel value of same row CA does not change, so even the 1st comparator circuit detects difference, also there is no need to carry out between terminal short circuit control, power consumption is less when not carrying out short circuit control thus.Even the 2nd comparator circuit detects difference, do not detect at the 1st comparator circuit under the situation of difference, because do not have potential difference (PD) between 2 lead-out terminals, so also do not have effect even carry out short circuit control between terminal, power consumption is less when not carrying out short circuit control thus.
Like this, do not detect under the situation of difference at the 1st or the 2nd comparator circuit, signal is judged in the output of logical and circuit, so that make control signal SD12, SE12 invalid.That is, former state is closed output switch 71A, 71B, former state is opened short circuiting switch 81.
Timing adjusting circuit 51 is exported the judgement signal that logical circuit 41 generates as adjusting control signal SD12, SE12 regularly.Under the situation of carrying out short circuit control between terminal, timing adjusting circuit 51 at first input scan pulse signal P1 is determined the judgement of logical circuit 41, make control signal SD12 effectively open output switch 71A, 71B then, make control signal SE12 effectively close short circuiting switch 81 then.
Reach equilibrium state through after the official hour, that is, the current potential of lead-out terminal 91,92 becomes roughly the same current potential.Therefore, be right after before beginning on the display panel to show, timing adjusting circuit 51 makes control signal SE12 invalid and open short circuiting switch 81, makes control signal SD12 invalid and close output switch 71A, 71B then.
Output switch 71A, 71B and short circuiting switch 81 become common state, thereby lead-out terminal 91,92 is exported respectively and the corresponding voltage of pixel value of memory element 21,22.Regularly different by the control that makes control signal SD12, SE12 as mentioned above, and output can not enter any abnormality, thus between lead-out terminal, carry out short circuit control safely.
The electric power of additive decrementation is about the control electric power size that is used for switch control during short circuit control.After short circuit between lead-out terminal, when showing next line, the current potential of lead-out terminal 91,92 towards and lead-out terminal between the equidirectional that changes during short circuit further change.Therefore, by making the current potential equalization of lead-out terminal like this, can obtain with pre-charge or the identical effect of discharging in advance.Required 1/2 because of realizing that the potential change that needs with the corresponding current potential of value of pixel D11 is about under the common situation, so the heat that drives needed electric power of display panel and generation can be suppressed to about 1/2.
Next lead-out terminal 92,93 is carried out same control.Later also carry out same control for other 2 adjacent lead-out terminals.In addition, in each scanning impulse, carry out same operation repeatedly.Drive the electric power that display panel consumed by reducing as mentioned above.
Like this, by the display drive apparatus 100 of Fig. 1, according to 3 pixels, promptly 2 pixels in the previous row display pixel and with these 2 pixels in any one belong to 1 pixel of same row, can judge effectively whether the short circuit between lead-out terminal effective.Need between pixel, not be worth regular property.
Under the situation of Fig. 3 (b), the 2nd comparator circuit of logical circuit 41 relatively belongs to the value (being stored in respectively in memory element 32 and the memory element 22) of the pixel D22 and the pixel D12 of same row, and exports its comparative result.(combination G22) is all corresponding with lead-out terminal 92 for these 2 pixels.Others are identical with the situation of Fig. 3 (a).
In addition, also can not wait for load judgment circuit 40 between terminal logical circuit 41,42 ... judge, behind input scan signal P1, open at once all output switch 71A, 71B, 72A ...Under this situation, if judgements such as logical circuit 41 should be carried out short circuit between a pair of corresponding lead-out terminal, then close corresponding short circuiting switch 81 etc., between terminal, to set up short circuit, and, then close corresponding output switch 71A etc. for being judged as pair of output that need not to set up short circuit.
In view of the above, because during between terminal, judging in the load judgment circuit 40, output switch concurrent working, longer during with the current potential equalization so can guarantee in short circuit between lead-out terminal.
In addition, for example also can be by the output switch 71B, the 72A that replace being connected to according to the logic of obtaining control signal SD12 and control signal SD23 and the output switch that carries out work on the same lead-out terminal 92.
In addition, in the situation of Fig. 3 (a), Fig. 3 (b), the 1st comparator circuit of logical circuit 41 also can not compare the value of pixel D21 and the value of pixel D22, and the value of the value of compared pixels D11 and pixel D12.

Fig. 9 (a) is the synoptic diagram that the 7th example of the combination of pixels that load judgment circuit 40 adopts in judgement between the terminal of Fig. 1 is shown.Fig. 9 (b) is the synoptic diagram that the variation of Fig. 9 (a) is shown.The 1st comparator circuit of logical circuit 41 relatively belongs to the value (the combination G11 of Fig. 9 (a)) of the pixel D21 and the pixel D22 of same display line.The comparative result whether value of these 2 pixels of the 1st comparator circuit output expression is consistent.For the 2nd and the 3rd comparator circuit, since identical with the situation of Fig. 8 (a), so omitted explanation.Represent inconsistent at the comparative result of the 1st comparator circuit, and the comparative result of the 2nd and the 3rd comparator circuit is represented under the consistent situation, the logical and circuit judges is for to set up short circuit at lead-out terminal 91 and 92 of lead-out terminals, and output judges that signal is to carry out short circuit control.
Under the situation of Fig. 9 (b), the 1st comparator circuit of logical circuit 41 relatively belongs to the value of the pixel D11 and the pixel D12 of same display line, exports its comparative result (combination G12).Others are identical with the situation of Fig. 9 (a).
Under the situation of Fig. 4 (a)~Fig. 9 (b), logical circuit 42 grades are also carried out the judgement identical with logical circuit 41 to other lead-out terminal, export according to its result and judge that signal is to carry out short circuit control.
In addition, with 2 pixels in the previous row display pixel and with 4 pixels or 3 pixels that these 2 pixels belong to respectively in 2 pixels of next line of same row be object, can adopt among Fig. 3 (a)~Fig. 9 (b) does not have illustrated combination yet.
In addition, in view of simple circuit configuration and effective circuit area, the row CA, the CB that describe in Fig. 3 (a)~Fig. 9 (b) are adjacent row.But row CA, CB also can be non-conterminous row.That is, 2 row CA, CB are so long as no matter different row are that the row how to select can.Under this situation, and corresponding 2 lead-out terminals of 2 row selected between have short circuiting switch, control this short circuiting switch and be connected to output switch on these two lead-out terminals according to judged result.
In addition, carrying out 1 row pixel data when handling, load judgment circuit 40 can repeatedly not select 2 to classify as and judge with row at every turn between terminal, can repeatedly select 2 to classify as and judge with row at every turn yet.Under the situation that does not repeat to select,, between lead-out terminal, carry out short circuit control for per 2 lead-out terminals.Under the situation that repeats to select, load judgment circuit 40 not only adopts the pixel of row CA, CB to judge between terminal, also adopts other row (if being row CC) and the pixel of row CB to judge.Under this situation,,, and carry out short circuit control 91,92 and 93 of 3 lead-out terminals so just not only 92 of lead-out terminal 91 and lead-out terminals if for example row CA, CB, CC is corresponding with the lead-out terminal 91,92,93 of Fig. 2 respectively.Perhaps, load judgment circuit 40 also can carry out short circuit control between terminal between more lead-out terminal.
Figure 10 is the mode chart of object lesson that the short circuiting switch work of Fig. 2 is shown.Figure 10 illustrates N and the capable pixel of N-1 and short circuiting switch 81~89,180~184.The pixel that the capable pixel of N will show after being, the capable pixel of N-1 are the previous row display pixels that has shown.White circle expression illumination (corresponding lead-out terminal output high level " H " signal), black this pixel of circle expression does not have illumination (corresponding lead-out terminal output low level " L " signal).
In Fig. 2, repeat to comprise same circuit.Short circuiting switch 84~89,180~184 is included between lead-out terminal in the on-off circuit 60, and is present in the below of the short circuiting switch 81~83 of Fig. 2.Here, load judgment circuit 40 adopts the combination of pixels shown in Fig. 3 (a) between terminal in judgement.
For example, for the left side the 1st row of Figure 10 and 4 pixels of the 2nd row, because the value difference of capable 2 pixels of N-1, and the value difference of 2 pixels of the 1st row, so logical circuit 41 output control signals, so that carry out short circuit control.Thereby short circuiting switch 81 is connected.For the 2nd row of Figure 10 and 4 pixels of the 3rd row, because the value difference of capable 2 pixels of N-1, and the value difference of 2 pixels of the 2nd row, so logical circuit 42 output control signals, so that carry out short circuit control.Equally because short circuiting switch 83 also connects, so and the corresponding lead-out terminal of the 1st~the 4th row pixel between with the current potential equalization.
Figure 11 is the block diagram of structure that the display drive apparatus variation of Fig. 1 is shown.The display drive apparatus of Figure 11 replaces between terminal on-off circuit 60 between load judgment circuit 40 and lead-out terminal, has between terminal on-off circuit 260 between load judgment circuit 240 and lead-out terminal, and this point is different with the display drive apparatus of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
Between terminal load judgment circuit 240 comprise logical circuit 241,242,243 ... with timing adjusting circuit 251,252,253 ...On-off circuit 260 is except having between lead-out terminal the element in the on-off circuit 60 between lead-out terminal, also have bridging line 8 be connected with bridging line switch 81C, 82C, 83C ...
Bridging line connect switch 81C, 82C, 83C ... respectively with lead-out terminal 91,92,93 ... corresponding, between the lead-out terminal of correspondence and bridging line 8, connect.For example can adopt transistor as bridging line connect switch 81C, 82C, 83C ...Power circuit on bridging line 8, apply with " H " and " L " on a rough average voltage (power supply power vd D about 1/2nd voltage).
Logical circuit 241 and logical circuit 41 roughly the same ground structures, but different on this point below.If it is invalid (promptly that logical circuit 241 detects control signal SE12, do not close short circuiting switch 81) and with the lead-out terminal 91 corresponding row of pixel in the value of pixel change (promptly the value of the pixel D21 of row CA and pixel D11 is different in Fig. 3 (a) etc.), signal is judged in logical circuit 241 outputs, so that control signal SF12 is become effectively.Under the effective situation of control signal SF12, bridging line connection switch 81C sets up the short circuit between lead-out terminal 91 and the bridging line 8.Logical circuit 242,243 ... and timing adjusting circuit 252,253 ... also be except relevant control signal difference, work in the same manner.
In addition, power circuit also can apply voltage for bridging line 8.Under this situation, in the lead-out terminal chien shih current potential equalization that is connected on the bridging line 8.In addition, also can on the large value capacitor of the voltage of keeping supply voltage VDD about 1/2nd, connect bridging line 8.
Figure 12 is the timing waveform of the control signal of output from 2 timing adjusting circuits 251,252 of Figure 11.Timing adjusting circuit 251 is exported the judgement signal that logical circuit 241 generates as adjusting control signal SD12, SE12 regularly, SF12 (switch controlling signal SD).Be judged as 91,92 of lead-out terminals at logical circuit 241 and carry out under the situation of short circuit control, timing adjusting circuit 251 at first input scan pulse signal P1 is determined the judgement of logical circuit 241, makes control signal SD12 effectively (" L ") and open output switch 71A, 71B then.Timing adjusting circuit 251 makes control signal SE12 effective (" H ") and closes short circuiting switch 81 then.Because control signal SF12 in statu quo invalid (" L ") opens so bridging line connects switch 81C former state.
Through behind the official hour, timing adjusting circuit 251 makes control signal SE12 invalid (" L ") and opens short circuiting switch 81, makes control signal SD12 invalid (" H ") then and closes output switch 71A, 71B.
Timing adjusting circuit 252 is exported the judgement signal that logical circuit 242 generates as adjusting control signal SD23, SE23 regularly, SF23 (switch controlling signal SD).Be judged as not 92,93 of lead-out terminals at logical circuit 242 and carry out short circuit control (do not make control signal SE23 effective) and detecting under the situation that the value of pixel in the lead-out terminal 92 corresponding row with pixel changes, timing adjusting circuit 252 makes control signal SF23 effectively (" H ") after the timing that the level of the signal of control short circuiting switches such as control signal SE12, SE23 changes.So, close bridging line and connect switch 82C.Because control signal SE23 former state invalid (" L ") is so short circuiting switch 82 former states are closed.
Then, the current potential of lead-out terminal 92 becomes the current potential that is substantially equal to bridging line 8.Before the timing that the level of the signal of control such as control signal SE12, SE23 short circuiting switch changes, timing adjusting circuit 252 makes control signal SF23 invalid (" L ") and opens bridging line connection switch 82C.So just make control that bridging line connects switch 81C, 82C etc. regularly different with short circuiting switch 81,82 etc.
Figure 13 is the mode chart that the 1st concrete example of the short circuiting switch of Figure 11 and the work that bridging line connects switch is shown.Figure 13 illustrates the capable pixel of N and N-1, short circuiting switch 81~89,180~184 and be connected switch 81C~89C, 180C~184C with bridging line.In Figure 11, repeat to comprise same circuit.Bridging line connects switch 84C~89C, 180C~184C and is included between lead-out terminal in the on-off circuit 260, and the bridging line that is present in Figure 11 connects the below of switch 81C~83C.In Figure 13~Figure 15, load judgment circuit 240 adopts the combination of pixels shown in Fig. 6 (a) between terminal in judgement.
Under the situation of Figure 13, though for any 2 row neighbors, all not short circuits between the terminal of correspondence for the capable pixel of the N-1 row different with the value of the capable pixel of N, are closed corresponding bridging line and are connected switch.That is, bridging line connects switch 84C, 85C, 86C, 180C, 181C, 182C connection.Thereby, in pixel arrangement as shown in Figure 13, though the display drive apparatus of Fig. 2 can not make the current potential equalization of lead-out terminal, by the display drive apparatus of Figure 11, the current potential of the lead-out terminal that current potential changed when next line was shown is roughly VDD/2.
Figure 14 is the mode chart that the 2nd concrete example of the short circuiting switch of Figure 11 and the work that bridging line connects switch is shown.Voxel model is different with Figure 13 in Figure 14.Under this situation,, connect switch 81C, 82C etc. but also close bridging line, so can make the current potential of more lead-out terminal be roughly VDD/2 because not only close short circuiting switch 83,86,89,182.
Figure 15 is the mode chart that the 3rd concrete example of the short circuiting switch of Figure 11 and the work that bridging line connects switch is shown.Under this situation, not only close short circuiting switch 81,82 etc., also close bridging line and connect switch 84C, 180C.
Figure 16 is the mode chart that the 4th concrete example of the short circuiting switch of Figure 11 and the work that bridging line connects switch is shown.Here, load judgment circuit 240 adopts the combination of pixels shown in Fig. 3 (a) between short circuit when judging.Under this situation, not only close short circuiting switch 86,182, also close bridging line and connect switch 84C, 85C etc.Like this, by the display drive apparatus of Figure 11, contiguous pixels has under the situation of identical value in 1 row, especially produces effect.
In the display drive apparatus of Figure 11,, can carry out switch control by fairly simple circuit because connect switch according to 2 row controls of pixel corresponding short circuiting switch and bridging line.But, should also can not close for example bridging line connection switch 84C of Figure 14, because if only close short circuiting switch 83, the current potential between terminal has just averaged out.Equally, also there is no need to close the bridging line that bridging line connects switch 87C, 180C, 183C and Figure 15 and be connected switch 84C, 180C.Now the device of not closing the bridging line connection switch that need not to close is described.
Figure 17 is the block diagram of structure that the display drive apparatus variation of Figure 11 is shown.The display drive apparatus of Figure 17 except the element of the display drive apparatus that is included in Figure 11, also comprise AND gate 52D, 53D ..., each bridging line connects switch and is controlled by the output of the AND gate of correspondence.In Figure 17, omitted components identical with Figure 11.
Be that " L " and control signal SF23 are under the situation of " H " at control signal SE12 only, AND gate 52D makes control signal SG23 export for " H ".Bridging line connects switch 82C and only closes when control signal SG23 is " H ".That is, can only under the situation of not closing short circuiting switch 81, close bridging line and connect switch 82C.AND gate 53D ... also according to the control signal of correspondence similarly control bridging line connect switch 82C ...So, do not close the bridging line connection switch 84C of Figure 14 and the bridging line of Figure 15 and be connected switch 84C etc., can carry out better control.
Figure 18 is the block diagram of structure of other variation that the display drive apparatus of Fig. 1 is shown.The display drive apparatus of Figure 18 also comprises data timing adjusting circuit 202 and control timing adjusting circuit 204 except the element of the display drive apparatus 100 that comprises Fig. 1.
Data timing adjusting circuit 202 is adjusted timing from the pixel data D1 of the 1st memory circuit 20 outputs adjusted pixel data is outputed to on-off circuit 60 between lead-out terminal.Control timing adjusting circuit 204 is adjusted timing from the switch controlling signal SD of 40 outputs of load judgment circuit between terminal adjusted signal is outputed to on-off circuit 60 between lead-out terminal.
Here, in order to be applied between lead-out terminal on the on-off circuit 60 at switch controlling signal SD after, pixel data D1 is applied between terminal on the on-off circuit 60, data timing adjusting circuit 202 and control timing adjusting circuit 204 are adjusted regularly.In view of the above, can just before the display line conversion, between lead-out terminal, carry out short circuit control really.
In addition, display drive apparatus also can only comprise one of them of data timing adjusting circuit 202 and control timing adjusting circuit 204.
