Description

Can improve the LCD and the drive method thereof of film flicker
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of LCD and drive method thereof, relate in particular to a kind of LCD and drive method thereof that improves film flicker.
Background technology
LCD (liquid crystal display, LCD) have low radiation, volume is little and advantage such as low power consuming, replace traditional cathode-ray tube display (cathode ray tube display gradually, CRT), thereby be widely used in notebook computer, personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), flat-surface television, or on the information products such as mobile phone.The type of drive of conventional liquid crystal is to utilize source electrode drive circuit (source driver) and gate driver circuit (gate driver) to drive pixel on the panel with display image, because the cost of source electrode drive circuit is than the gate driver circuit height, in order to reduce the use amount of source electrode drive circuit, thereby derive half source electrode drive circuit (half source driver, the HSD) type of drive of pixel shared data line structure.In other words,, the data line of source electrode drive circuit is reduced by half, and the gate line of gate driver circuit is doubled, so can reduce production cost at the pixel of similar number.
Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the synoptic diagram of the liquid crystal indicator 100 of an employing HSD drives structure in the prior art.Liquid crystal indicator 100 comprises a sequential control circuit 130, one source pole driving circuit 110, a gate driver circuit 120, many data line DL 1～DL m, many gate lines G L 1～GL n, and a picture element matrix.Picture element matrix comprises a plurality of pixel cell PX LAnd PX R, each pixel cell comprises a thin film transistor (TFT) (thin film transistor, TFT) switching TFT, a liquid crystal capacitance C LCWith a memory capacitance C ST, be respectively coupled to corresponding data line, corresponding gate line, and a common voltage.Sequential control circuit 130 can produce source electrode drive circuit 110 and required control signal YOE, YV1C, input clock pulse signals CK, CKB or the output enable signal OE etc. of gate driver circuit 120 operations.Source electrode drive circuit 110 can produce the data drive signal SD corresponding to display image 1～SD mIf gate driver circuit 120 is an external drive circuit, then can produce the required gate drive signal SG of turn-on transistor switch according to control signal YOE and YV1C 1～SG n(gate on array, technology GOA) is made, and then can produce the required gate drive signal SG of turn-on transistor switch according to input clock pulse signals CK, CKB and output enable signal OE if gate driver circuit 120 utilizations are integrated in liquid crystal panel 1～SG n
When thin film transistor (TFT) TFT closes, pixel electrode is not connected to any voltage source, but be in unsteady (floating) state, this moment pixel electrode around if any variation in voltage arranged, will be coupled to pixel electrode by its stray capacitance, and change its voltage, so can allow be applied to liquid crystal capacitance C LCWith memory capacitance C STOn the original setting value of voltage deviation.The variation in voltage amount that this kind causes because of stray capacitance is called feed-trough voltage (feed-through voltage), and it is worth V FDCan be expressed as:
V FD＝[C GD/(C LC+C ST+C GD)]*ΔV G
＝K*ΔV G
Wherein, C GDRepresent the grid of thin film transistor switch TFT and the stray capacitance between the drain electrode, K represents C GDAccount for the ratio of all electric capacity sum totals, and Δ V GThen represent gate drive signal when closing thin film transistor switch TFT at pressure reduction that its grid caused.Feed-trough voltage V FDCan cause the situation of film flicker (image flicker), because thin film transistor switch TFT can't exist stray capacitance with avoiding, general type of drive can manage to reduce Δ V GValue, compensate by the common voltage Vcom that adjusts common ends more simultaneously, so could reduce film flicker effectively.
Please refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 are the synoptic diagram of the driving method of prior art liquid crystal indicator 100.Fig. 2 has shown when gate driver circuit 120 is external drive circuit, control signal YOE and gate drive signal SG 1～SG 4Waveform; Fig. 3 has shown when gate driver circuit 120 is made with the GOA technology, clock pulse signal CK, CKB, CK and CKB, output enable signal OE, and gate drive signal SG 1～SG 4Waveform.

In driving method shown in Figure 3, clock pulse signal CK and CKB have opposite phase, switch between high electronegative potential with a predetermined period, and this predetermined period then determines gate drive signal SG 1～SG 4In enable the length in cycle.When output enable signal OE had noble potential, gate driver circuit 120 meeting output clock pulse signal CK and CKB were to provide corresponding clock pulse signal O_CK and O_CKB; When output enable signal OE has electronegative potential, gate driver circuit 120 stops output, can carry out electric charge between clock pulse signal O_CK and the O_CKB this moment shares, and then reach the effect of top rake in the waveform drop edge, then provide gate drive signal SG according to clock pulse signal O_CK and O_CKB again 1～SG 4Because having the time span of electronegative potential in each cycle, output enable signal OE is all T, can be to gate drive signal SG 1～SG 4Cause identical top rake amplitude.Therefore, when closing corresponding thin film transistor switch TFT, gate drive signal SG 1～SG 4Be all Δ V at the pressure reduction that its grid caused G'.As previously mentioned, the value of feed-trough voltage is proportional to grid pressure reduction, owing to carry out the Δ V behind the voltage top rake G' Δ V when not carrying out the voltage top rake GTherefore, can reduce the effect of feed-trough voltage.
In the liquid crystal indicator 100 of prior art, the both sides of each bar data line all are provided with pixel, wherein pixel cell PX LThe gate drive signal SG that is located at the data line left side and transmits by odd number bar gate line 1, SG 3..., SG N-1Control, and pixel cell PX RThe gate drive signal SG that is located at the data line right side and transmits by even number bar gate line 2, SG 4..., SG nControl.Two types pixel cell PX LAnd PX RUsually has different designs, its C LC, C ST, C GSOr C GDAlso difference to some extent of value, therefore can produce the feed-trough voltage V of different sizes FDEven two types pixel cell PX LAnd PX RHave same design, also (for example the skew of the first metal layer Metal 1 and the second metal level Metal 2 can cause pixel cell PX because process shifts causes different manifestations easily LAnd PX RDifferent C is arranged GD), still can produce different big or small feed-trough voltage V FD
Reduce the grid cross-pressure at Fig. 2 and prior art driving method shown in Figure 3 with same magnitude, though can reduce the effect of feed-trough voltage, but the feed-trough voltage of each pixel cell is difference to some extent still, therefore can't be effectively by adjusting the situation that common voltage Vcom eliminate film flicker.
