Hereinafter with reference to relevant drawings, a kind of display device according to present pre-ferred embodiments and image control method thereof are described, wherein identical element is illustrated with identical reference marks.
Please refer to shown in Fig. 2, it is the function block schematic diagram of a kind of display device 1 of present pre-ferred embodiments.
Display device 1 of the present invention is an autoluminescence (self-luminous) display device.In this, be for active matrix organic light-emitting display device (AM-OLED).Certainly, display device 1 also can be other self-emission display apparatus.Wherein, display device 1 comprises display panel 11 and a driver module 12.
Display panel 11 has at least one pixel, and driver module 12 drives display panel 11 by least one sweep trace and at least one data line.In the present embodiment, display device 1 has multiple pixel (Fig. 2 does not show), multi-strip scanning line S mand a plurality of data lines D nfor example.Wherein, described these sweep traces S mand described these data lines D nform these pel arrays described in being crisscross arranged.And display panel 11 is by described these sweep traces S mand described these data lines D nbe electrically connected with driver module 12.
Driver module 12 comprises an image-processing circuit 121, data drive circuit 122 and scan driving circuit 123.Wherein, scan drive circuit 123 is by described these sweep traces S mbe electrically connected with display panel 11, and data drive circuit 121 is by described these data lines D nbe electrically connected with display panel 11.Sweep trace S can be made respectively when scan drive circuit 123 exports one scan drive singal mconducting, and data drive circuit 121 can by a data drive signal of every for correspondence one-row pixels by described these data lines D nbe sent to these pixels described, to make display panel 11 show image.In addition, driver module 12 more can comprise a sequential control (T-con) circuit (Fig. 2 does not show) respectively with data drive circuit 121 and scan drive circuit 123.Wherein, image-processing circuit 121 can be included in sequential control circuit, to save circuit cost.Certainly, image-processing circuit 121 also can be an independently integrated circuit, in this, is not limited.
Image-processing circuit 121 can receive one first signal of video signal S1 of a picture frame time (frametime), and calculates an average gray-scale value of the first signal of video signal S1.Wherein, a picture frame time is exactly the time that display device 1 shows needed for a picture, therefore the first signal of video signal S1 has in a display frame, drives whole grey decision-making of all pixels of display panel 11.In other words, image-processing circuit 121 first calculates the average gray-scale value of all pixels of a display frame, and when this average gray-scale value is more than or equal to one first setting grey decision-making (first setting GTG value≤average gray-scale value), image-processing circuit 121 can reduce the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 according to one first ratio and become one second signal of video signal S2.In this, display panel 11 can according to the first setting grey decision-making and luminous, and display panel 11 sets the drive current of grey decision-making according to first, be can between display panel drive whole pixel light current 10% to 30% between.
In the present embodiment, for the grey decision-making of 8 bits, the scope of the grey decision-making of display panel 11 is between 0 ~ 255, therefore, for the first setting grey decision-making for 145, grey decision-making 145 drives the electric current of display panel 11, approximates 30% of the drive current all pixels of display panel 11 lighted with most high gray value (255).In addition, the value of the first ratio can between 0.9 ~ 0.75, and first ratio of the present embodiment is for 0.8.Therefore, when the average gray-scale value of all pixels of display frame is more than or equal to 145, image-processing circuit 121 can obtain the second signal of video signal S2 after each grey decision-making of first signal of video signal S1 can being multiplied by 0.8 respectively.Such as the grey decision-making of a certain pixel of the first signal of video signal S1 is 200, and supposes that the mean value of all grey decision-making in picture is higher than 145, so the grey decision-making of pixel will reduce to 200 × 0.8=160, this will be the new grey decision-making of this pixel of the second signal of video signal S2.Other pixel by that analogy.
In addition, in the present embodiment, when the average gray-scale value calculated is more than or equal to the first setting grey decision-making, and when being less than one second setting grey decision-making, that is during first setting GTG value≤flat equal GTG value≤the second setting grey decision-making, then image-processing circuit 121 still reduces the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 according to the first ratio and becomes the second signal of video signal S2.In addition, when the average gray-scale value calculated is more than or equal to the second setting grey decision-making, that is second sets GTG value≤average gray-scale value, then image-processing circuit 121 can reduce the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 according to one second ratio and become one the 3rd signal of video signal (Fig. 2 does not show).Wherein, the first ratio can be identical or not identical with the numerical value of the second ratio, and the second setting grey decision-making can be greater than the first setting grey decision-making.Wherein, display panel 11 according to second setting grey decision-making drive current, be can between display panel 11 drive whole pixel light current 65% to 75% between.The value of the second ratio can between 0.74 ~ 0.55, and in the present embodiment, the second ratio is 0.72, and the second setting grey decision-making is such as 215.Grey decision-making 215 drives the electric current of display panel 11, and be equal to that display panel 11 drives whole pixel light current 70%.
Hold, image-processing circuit 121 of the present invention first calculates the average gray-scale value of all pixels in a display frame, and when 0≤average gray-scale value < first sets grey decision-making (such as 145), the first signal of video signal S1 does not change; When first setting grey decision-making (such as 145)≤average gray-scale value < second sets grey decision-making (such as 215), each grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 is multiplied by the first ratio (such as 0.8) and becomes the second signal of video signal S2; When the second setting grey decision-making (such as 215)≤flat equal GTG value≤most high gray value (such as 255), then each grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 is multiplied by the second ratio (such as 0.72) and becomes the 3rd signal of video signal.In this, first setting grey decision-making be the 145, second setting grey decision-making to be the 215, first ratio be 0.8 and second ratio be 0.72 just citing, user can use the first different setting grey decision-making, the second setting grey decision-making, the first ratio and the second ratio according to its demand certainly.
In addition, have the existence of the second setting grey decision-making and the second ratio in the present embodiment, but, in other embodiments, user also can not use the second setting grey decision-making and the second ratio, and only uses the first setting grey decision-making and the first ratio.In other words, in other embodiment, when the first setting GTG Zhi≤Ping equal GTG Zhi≤most high gray value (such as 255), each grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1 can be multiplied by a ratio by image-processing circuit 121 respectively, to obtain the second signal of video signal S2.In addition, user also according to different display device setting more setting grey decision-making and ratio thereof, such as, can set the 3rd setting grey decision-making, the 4th setting grey decision-making, the 3rd ratio and the 4th ratio etc. certainly.Such as can set one the 3rd setting grey decision-making between the first setting grey decision-making and the second setting grey decision-making, and when average gray-scale value is more than or equal to the first setting grey decision-making, and when being less than one the 3rd setting grey decision-making, image-processing circuit 121 can reduce the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal according to one the 3rd ratio and become one the 4th signal of video signal, or be other setting means, in this, do not limited.
When image-processing circuit 121 produces the second signal of video signal S2 or the 3rd signal of video signal or the 4th signal of video signal, data drive circuit 122 can receive, and drives display panel 11 show image according to the second signal of video signal S2 or the 3rd signal of video signal or the 4th signal of video signal.In this, data drive circuit 122 can export a data drive signal according to the signal of video signal correspondence received and drive display panel 11 show image.In other words, when data drive circuit 122 receives the signal of video signal of image-processing circuit 121 output, data drive circuit 122 can export data drive signal according to this signal of video signal correspondence, and these pixels described that data drive signal can control display panel 11 respectively send corresponding light, with show image picture.
In the present embodiment, each pixel of display panel 11 can have a driving transistors and a light-emitting component (Organic Light Emitting Diode) respectively, and wherein, driving transistors can control light-emitting component luminescence.And the data drive signal that data drive circuit 122 exports is by data line D ninput the grid of the driving transistors of each pixel, the luminosity of the light-emitting component of each pixel can be controlled by this.Due to when the average gray-scale value of display frame is more than or equal to the first setting grey decision-making, image-processing circuit 121 has reduced the grey decision-making that signal of video signal exports, therefore all gray scale voltages of the data drive signal of data drive circuit 122 output also reduce, therefore the luminosity of the light-emitting component of all pixels also reduces, make to drive the electric current of display panel 11 also to reduce, therefore the power consumption of display device 1 also can reduce.
It should be noted that when the average gray-scale value of display frame is lower, the ratio being lit pixel representing display device 1 display frame is less, therefore the present invention does not turn down the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1, so contributes to beholder and sees show image clearly.But, when the average gray-scale value of display frame is higher, the ratio being lit pixel represented in the display frame of display device 1 is higher, can emit beam owing to there being more pixel in show image, therefore the present invention turns down the grey decision-making of the first signal of video signal S1, and then the overall brightness of display device 1 display frame is reduced, but for beholder, although the overall brightness of display frame reduces, but can emit beam owing to there being more pixel in picture, therefore beholder be not easy to find, do not affect its rating quality yet.
In addition, shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, wherein, Fig. 3 is the schematic flow sheet of the image control method of a kind of display device of present pre-ferred embodiments.
As shown in Figure 2, display device 1 comprises display panel 11 and a driver module 12.Driver module 12 comprises an image-processing circuit 121, data drive circuit 122 and scan driving circuit 123.Wherein, the technical characteristic of display device 1 can refer to above-mentioned, repeats no more in this.
In addition, as shown in Figure 3, the image control method of display device of the present invention can comprise step S01 to step S04.
