Gate drivers 109 is controlled by time schedule controller 107, uses each row pixel (not illustrating) of opening one by one in the display panels 101.Source electrode driver 111 also is controlled by time schedule controller 107, and using provides the pairing data voltage of image data VD ' via image data processing device 105 compensation image frame later (or meaning pixel voltage) that is received corresponding to time schedule controller 107 to give the row pixel of being opened by gate drivers 109 in the display panels 101.So, finish the data voltage during to last row pixel in the display panels 101 that provides corresponding when source electrode driver 111, the area source that module 103 backlight is supplied will cause display panels 101 show image pictures.
And the spirit in order to want to illustrate more clearly that institute of the present invention desire is set forth supposes that in this module 103 backlight is single side-light type module backlight (single edge lighting type), but is not restricted to this.By in the content that prior art disclosed as can be known, when the light source of module 103 backlight (light emitting diode for example, CCFL etc.) be placed on the single side (downside for example of whole module backlight 103, but also can be, a left side or right side) time, the area source intensity of its display panels that is supplied to 101 can be decremented to its upside by its downside, to such an extent as to single side-light type module 103 backlight is supplied to the area source meeting inhomogeneous (that is can be decremented to its upside from the downside of display panels 101) of display panels 101, and then the image frame degradation that causes LCD 100 to be presented.
Yet, why present embodiment can generally not be printed with under the condition of reflection graphic patterns in the light guide plate of module 103 backlight in employing, can also reach and allow the brightness uniformity of the shown image frame of LCD 100, its topmost pass technology is the effect that is the image data processing device 105 of present embodiment.Therefore, will the arrange in pairs or groups inside calcspar of image data processing device 105 of following content is done one and is explained and consider and examine for those skilled in the relevant art of the present invention.
Fig. 2 illustrates the inside calcspar into the image data processing device 105 of one embodiment of the invention.Please merge with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, image data processing device 105 comprises first converting unit 201, subregion compensating unit 203, reproducing unit 205, second converting unit 207, and look-up table 209.First converting unit 201 is in order to receive and to change the image data VD that is shown in the image frame on the display panels 101, GTG-penetrance corresponding relation of using the image data VD that causes described image frame is a linear relationship, and with field of the present invention have know usually the knowledgeable as can be known the effect of first converting unit 201 be the action of the image data VD of image frame being made linear gamma (de-gamma).
Subregion compensating unit 203 couples first converting unit 201, look-up table 209 and reproducing unit 205, in order to according to the Luminance Distribution state of module 103 actual provision backlight, and earlier described image frame is divided into multi-region sub-image picture A0 to the required area source of display panels 101 -An, an offset that is provided by 209 correspondences of look-up table is provided the image data of then again each being distinguished sub-image picture A0-An.In present embodiment, because module 103 actual provision backlight to the Luminance Distribution state of the required area source of display panels 101 can be decremented to its upside from the downside of display panels 101, so what well imagine is, the brightness L0 of sub-image picture A0 can be the brightest, and the brightness L1 of sub-image picture A1 can be time bright, the rest may be inferred to the brightness Ln of sub-image picture An can be the darkest.
The base this, the brightness L0-Ln that present embodiment can be distinguished each sub-image picture A0-An is embedded in the look-up table 209 with respect to a plurality of ratios between the brightness Ln of the sub-image picture An that has minimum brightness, and these ratios promptly out of the ordinary for each distinguish sub-image picture A0-An image data the offset that is multiplied by of correspondence.Clearer, look-up table 209 can record Ln/L0, Ln/L1, Ln/L2 ..., a plurality of ratios such as Ln/L (n-1) and Ln/Ln are in it, wherein the ratio of Ln/L0 the offset that is multiplied by by the image data of sub-image picture A0 of correspondence, the ratio of Ln/L1 the offset that is multiplied by by the image data of sub-image picture A1 of correspondence, by that analogy to the ratio of Ln/L (n-1) the offset that is multiplied by by the image data of sub-image picture A (n-1) of correspondence, and the ratio of Ln/Ln (that is 1) the offset that is multiplied by by the image data of sub-image picture An of correspondence.
So as can be known according to foregoing, present embodiment is that the brightness Ln with sub-image picture An is the brightness L0-L (n-1) that a benchmark is adjusted all the other sub-image picture A0-A (n-1), use making that the brightness L0-Ln of sub-image picture A0-An is all consistent, so the brightness of the shown image frame of display panels 101 will homogenising.
What deserves to be mentioned is earlier in this, might have radix point owing to be multiplied by the image data of each the district sub-image picture A0-An behind the described offset, so in order to keep the expressive ability (being generally 8 GTG numerical value) of the original image data of each district sub-image picture A0-An, reproducing unit 205 can be handled the image data that is multiplied by each the district sub-image picture A0-An behind the described offset, uses and reappears the image data with radix point numerical value.
In present embodiment, the radix point numerical value figure place that reproducing unit 205 reappears the image data with radix point numerical value can be determined with respect to the ratio between the brightness L0 of the sub-image picture A0 that has maximum brightness by the brightness Ln of the sub-image picture An that has minimum brightness.In simple terms, be exactly the ratio of L0/Ln.Wherein, when the ratio of L0/Ln less than 2 the time, the radix point numerical value figure place that reproducing unit 205 reappears the image data with radix point numerical value is 1; When the ratio of L0/Ln greater than 2 less than 4 the time, the radix point numerical value figure place that reproducing unit 205 reappears the image data with radix point numerical value is 2; When the ratio of L0/Ln greater than 4 less than 8 the time, the radix point numerical value figure place that reproducing unit 205 reappears the image data with radix point numerical value is 3, please by that analogy it, so repeat no more.
In addition, reproducing unit 205 can add up at every M radix point numerical value that has been multiplied by the image data behind the described offset, use when carry, the integer numerical value that causes M to be multiplied by the image data behind the described offset adds 1, otherwise the radix point numerical value that then described M has been multiplied by the image data behind the described offset is cast out, and wherein M is a positive integer.
For instance, suppose that described M is 3, and the 1st row pixel of display panels 101 has 6 pixels (but neither be limited to this), wherein to be multiplied by the image data behind the described offset distinctly be 26.1 GTGs, 52.3 GTGs, 62.8 GTGs, 15.3 GTGs, 52.3 GTGs and 102.3 GTGs to these 6 pixels, and the numerical value of M must be according to the ability of the size of pixel and human eye discrimination and decided.
So according under this assumed condition, reproducing unit 205 can be earlier adds up at preceding 3 the radix point numerical value that have been multiplied by the image data behind the described offset, also being about to 0.1 GTG, 0.3 GTG and 0.8 GTG adds up, clearly can carry in this, so reproducing unit 205 can cause preceding 3 image datas that have been multiplied by behind the described offset to become 26 GTGs, 52 GTGs and 63 GTGs.Also also because of so, become and carry out behind 26 GTGs, 52 GTGs and 63 GTGs spacing color mixedly again if will preceding 3 be multiplied by image data behind the described offset, can cause image data reproduction with radix point numerical value.
And then, reproducing unit 205 can be again adds up at back 3 the radix point numerical value that have been multiplied by the image data behind the described offset, also being about to 0.3 GTG, 0.3 GTG and 0.3 GTG adds up, clearly can't carry in this, so reproducing unit 205 can cause back 3 image datas that have been multiplied by behind the described offset to become 15 GTGs, 52 GTGs and 102 GTGs.Afterwards, reproducing unit 205 can be handled at all the other row pixels of display panels 101 again, and the mode of handling with above-mentioned exemplify similar, so also no longer given unnecessary details it at this.
Moreover, in order not allow display panels 101 when showing some static image picture, produce fixedly striped, so present embodiment is (N is a positive integer) during 2N picture of display panels 101, reproducing unit 205 can not handled the image data of the 1st pixel of all even column pixels of display panels 101, and during (2N+1) individual picture of display panels 101, reproducing unit 205 can not handled the image data of the 1st pixel of all odd column pixels of display panels 101, overcomes the fixedly striped that display panels 101 is produced when showing some static image picture by this.
Please continue with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, second converting unit 207 couples reproducing unit 205, in order to receive and to change the image data of handling each district sub-image picture A0-An later via reproducing unit 205, GTG-penetrance corresponding relation of using the image data that causes each district sub-image picture A0-An is the gamma relation, and with field of the present invention have know usually the knowledgeable as can be known the effect of second converting unit 207 be the action of the image data of each district sub-image picture A0-An being made back non-linear gamma (gamma), offer time schedule controller 107 with the image data VD ' of the image frame after will compensating.
In view of the above because the image data processing device 105 of present embodiment can allow the brightness L0-Ln of each sub-image picture A0-An all consistent, so undoubtedly as can be known be the brightness meeting homogenising of the image frame that display panels 101 is shown.In addition, upright even if module backlight 103 has been organized, image data processing device 105 also can compensate the image data VD of image frame, so its design applicability is quite high.
Yet,, be not restricted to the embodiment of the foregoing description according to spirit of the present invention.That is to say that module 103 backlight also can utilize bilateral light formula module backlight to realize.And with this understanding, it is that the brightness that benchmark is adjusted all the other sub-image pictures get final product that image data processing device 105 still only needs with the brightness that has the sub-image picture of minimum brightness among all sub-image picture A0-An, the brightness uniformity that also can allow the shown image frame of LCD 100 like this.
Moreover, subregion compensating unit 203 more can be according to the Luminance Distribution state of module 103 actual provision backlight to the required area source of display panels 101, and described image frame is divided into the multi-region sub-image picture A (0 of two dimensional form, 0)-A (n, m), and as long as record has all sub-image picture A (0 in look-up table 209,0)-A (n, m) under the condition of pairing offset, module 103 backlight just can be realized it by many side-light types module backlight, so image data processing device 105 still only needs with all sub-image picture A (0,0)-A (n, m) brightness that has the sub-image picture of minimum brightness in is that the brightness that benchmark is adjusted all the other sub-image pictures gets final product, and so also can allow the brightness uniformity of the shown image frame of LCD 100.
