Description

Background
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) devices have many advantages such as low power consumption, light weight, and low radiation, and thus have been used to replace conventional Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) displays. Liquid crystal display devices are widely used in electronic devices such as high-definition digital televisions, desktop computers, notebook computers, tablet computers, mobile phones, digital cameras, and the like.
The liquid crystal display devices must be subjected to a lighting test before they are shipped from a factory. The lighting test is to input a timing signal of the liquid crystal display device, and gray scale voltages and data signals of red, green and blue pixels into the liquid crystal display device to check whether the liquid crystal display device can normally operate. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a lighting test system of a display device in the prior art, which mainly includes a micro-control module 110, a clock module 120, a processing module 130, a bridge conversion module 140, and a display device 150.

The clock module 120 uses a cdce706 chip, and the cdce706 chip can generate a clock signal with a certain frequency. The processing module 130 is, for example, a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The processing module 130 converts the received signal and sends the converted signal to the bridge conversion module 140. The Bridge conversion module 140 converts the received signal into a Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) signal or an Embedded Display Port (EDP) signal recognizable by the Display device 150, and sends the converted signal to the Display device 150 to complete the lighting test of the Display device 150, where the Bridge conversion module 140 may use a Bridge chip (Bridge IC).
However, in the lighting test system 100 of the display device of the related art, when the frequency of the clock signal required for lighting the display device 150 exceeds the upper frequency limit of the cdce706 chip, the display device 150 cannot be lit or the display device 150 exhibits abnormal screen, and the display device 150 cannot be effectively detected. The traditional solution is to replace the chip of the clock module 120 with a high-level chip with a higher upper frequency limit or replace the FPGA in the processing module 130 with a higher-level FPGA chip, which not only causes a large increase in cost and a waste of hardware resources, but also can only test the display device with specific specification parameters because the processing module 130 generates clock signals by itself and cannot realize dynamic adjustment, and the application range is narrow and the compatibility is poor.
