Accordingly, directional terminology is used to describe and understand the invention and is not intended to be limiting.

Thus, a feature defining "a first", "a second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more such feature.
Due to the effects of the FreeSync principle, there are differences in brightness of the display panel at different frequencies. As shown in fig. 1, fig. 1 is a graph of the refresh frequency versus brightness of a display panel under the same driving voltage signal. For the display panel with the refresh frequency interval of 48 Hz-165 Hz, the brightness of the display panel increases along with the rise of the refresh frequency under the same gray-scale picture, when the frequency is 48Hz, the brightness is alpha, and when the frequency is 165Hz, the brightness is alpha+beta. The brightness of the display panel is related to the driving voltage signal of the display panel at the same time, and the brightness increases with the increase of the driving voltage signal at the same frequency.
Therefore, the invention provides a driving method of a display panel, so as to relieve the problem of picture flickering caused by overlarge brightness change of the display panel of the existing Freesync technology. As shown in fig. 2, the driving method of the display panel provided in the embodiment of the invention includes:
s201, determining a target refresh frequency of a display panel according to image data to be displayed;
s202, accessing a driving voltage database, judging a frequency interval in which a target refresh frequency is located, and extracting driving voltage data corresponding to the frequency interval; the driving voltage database comprises at least two sub-frequency intervals and driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency intervals, wherein the driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency intervals with larger frequency is smaller than the driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency intervals with smaller frequency;
s203, outputting a driving voltage signal corresponding to the driving voltage data to the display panel for display.
The embodiment provides a driving method of a display panel, which keeps the brightness difference of the display panel in each sub-frequency interval at a smaller value and the brightness between different sub-frequency intervals is similar, so that the brightness difference of the whole display panel is reduced, and the problem of picture flickering caused by overlarge brightness change is relieved.
The method for driving the display panel provided by the invention will be described in detail below by taking a display panel with a frequency range of 48 Hz-165 Hz as an example.
In one embodiment, after determining the refresh frequency of the display panel according to the image data to be displayed in step S201, the driving method of the display panel provided by the present invention further includes:
judging whether the target refresh frequency is the same as the current refresh frequency of the display panel;
if the judgment result is the same, the step S202 is not needed to access the driving voltage database, the frequency interval where the target refresh frequency is located is judged, and driving voltage data corresponding to the frequency interval is extracted; directly outputting a driving voltage signal corresponding to the current refresh frequency to the display panel;
if the judgment result is different, step S202 is executed to access the driving voltage database, judge the frequency interval where the target refresh frequency is located, and extract the driving voltage data corresponding to the frequency interval.
In another embodiment, step S201 directly performs step S202 to access the driving voltage database, determine the frequency interval in which the target refresh frequency is located, and extract the driving voltage data corresponding to the frequency interval after determining the refresh frequency of the display panel according to the image data to be displayed, regardless of whether the target refresh frequency of the display panel is the same as the current refresh frequency of the display panel.
In one embodiment, step S202 accesses a driving voltage database, determines a frequency interval in which the target refresh frequency is located, and extracts driving voltage data corresponding to the frequency interval, where the step includes:
accessing a driving voltage database;
matching the target refreshing frequency with a sub-frequency interval in a driving voltage database to obtain a target sub-frequency interval;
and extracting driving voltage data corresponding to the target sub-frequency interval to serve as driving voltage data corresponding to the target refresh frequency.
In one embodiment, the sub-frequency bins are all the same size.
In another embodiment, there are at least two sub-frequency bins of different sizes.
In one embodiment, the driving method of a display panel provided by the present invention further includes pre-building a driving voltage database, as shown in fig. 3, where the step of pre-building the driving voltage database includes:
s301, acquiring a refresh frequency interval of a display panel;
s302, dividing a refreshing frequency interval to obtain at least two sub-frequency intervals;
s303, driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency interval is obtained;
s304, matching the sub-frequency interval with the driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency interval to obtain a driving voltage database.
In step S301, the refresh frequency interval obtained according to the application occasion of the display panel, such as a notebook, is 48 Hz-165 Hz, wherein when the refresh frequency is reduced to 48Hz, the power consumption of the display panel can be reduced, and the service life of the notebook battery can be prolonged; when the refresh frequency is increased to 165Hz, the display effect of the display panel can be improved. In the embodiment of the invention, the refresh frequency interval of the display panel is exemplified by 48 Hz-165 Hz.
In step S302, since the difference in the refresh frequency of the display panel is larger at the same driving voltage signal, the luminance difference of the display panel is larger. Therefore, the size of the sub-frequency interval determines the brightness difference of the display panel in the sub-frequency interval, and the larger the sub-frequency interval is, the larger the brightness difference of the display panel in the sub-frequency interval is; the size of the sub-frequency interval refers to the difference between the maximum frequency and the minimum frequency in the sub-frequency interval.
According to the principle, the size of the sub-frequency interval can be set according to specific panel brightness difference requirements. For example, for the display panel in the embodiment of the present invention, it is necessary to control the brightness difference of the display panel to be β/2 or less, and then it is necessary to control the size of the sub-frequency interval not to exceed 58.5Hz.
Then, the refresh frequency interval is divided according to the size of the sub-frequency interval.
In one embodiment, the refresh frequency interval is equally divided, and the equal division of the division can be set according to the need, the more the equal division is, the more the number of sub-frequency intervals is, and the smaller the single sub-frequency interval is. As shown in fig. 4, the refresh frequency interval is equally divided into halves, the sub-frequency interval includes a first sub-frequency interval of 48Hz to 106.5Hz and a second sub-frequency interval of 106.5Hz to 165Hz, and the sub-frequency intervals are 58.5Hz. As shown in fig. 5, the refresh frequency interval is equally divided into three equal divisions, and the sub-frequency intervals include a third sub-frequency interval of 48Hz to 87Hz, a fourth sub-frequency interval of 87Hz to 126Hz, and a fifth sub-frequency interval of 126Hz to 165Hz, and the sub-frequency intervals are 39Hz in size.
In another embodiment, the refresh frequency interval is divided unevenly, i.e. there are at least two sub-frequency intervals of different sizes. As shown in fig. 5, the refresh frequency interval is unevenly divided, and the sub-frequency interval includes a sixth sub-frequency interval of 48Hz to 106.5Hz, a seventh sub-frequency interval of 106.5Hz to 135.75Hz, and an eighth sub-frequency interval of 135.75Hz to 165Hz, the sixth sub-frequency interval being 58.5Hz in size, and the seventh sub-frequency interval and the eighth sub-frequency interval each being 29.25Hz in size.
It should be noted that the larger the number of sub-frequency intervals, the larger the corresponding driving voltage data amount, which is a program file stored in the driving IC (Integrated Circuit ), and the larger the driving voltage data amount, the larger the memory requirement for the driving IC. According to the invention, the refresh frequency of the display panel is divided into a plurality of sub-frequency intervals, one sub-frequency interval corresponds to one driving voltage data, so that the requirement on the driving IC memory is effectively reduced, and the production cost is reduced.
In step S303, the step of acquiring driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency interval includes:
taking a display brightness of the display panel as standard brightness;
and testing to obtain the driving voltage data corresponding to the display panel when the standard brightness is displayed at the preset frequency in the sub-frequency interval, and taking the driving voltage data as the driving voltage data corresponding to the sub-frequency interval.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the standard luminance is α and the predetermined frequency is the minimum frequency. Testing driving voltage data a corresponding to the display panel when displaying standard brightness alpha at a first minimum frequency of 48Hz, and taking the driving voltage data a as driving voltage data corresponding to a first sub-frequency interval of 48 Hz-106.5 Hz; and (3) testing the driving voltage data b corresponding to the display panel when the standard brightness alpha is displayed at the second minimum frequency of 106.5Hz, and taking the driving voltage data b as the driving voltage data corresponding to the first sub-frequency interval of 48 Hz-106.5 Hz.
In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the standard luminance is α+β/2 and the predetermined frequency is an intermediate frequency. The driving voltage data c corresponding to standard brightness alpha+beta/2 is displayed on the test display panel at the third intermediate frequency of 67.5Hz, and the driving voltage data c is used as the driving voltage data corresponding to the third sub-frequency interval of 48 Hz-87 Hz; the driving voltage data d corresponding to the standard brightness alpha+beta/2 is displayed on the test display panel at the fourth intermediate frequency of 106.5Hz, and the driving voltage data d is used as the driving voltage data corresponding to the fourth sub-frequency interval of 87 Hz-126 Hz; and displaying driving voltage data e corresponding to standard brightness alpha+beta/2 by the test display panel at a fifth intermediate frequency of 145.5Hz, and taking the driving voltage data e as driving voltage data corresponding to a fifth sub-frequency interval of 126 Hz-165 Hz.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the standard luminance is α+β, and the predetermined frequency is the maximum frequency. Testing driving voltage data f corresponding to the display panel when displaying standard brightness beta at a sixth maximum frequency of 106.5Hz, and taking the driving voltage data f as driving voltage data corresponding to a sixth sub-frequency interval of 48 Hz-106.5 Hz; testing driving voltage data g corresponding to the display panel when displaying standard brightness beta at a seventh maximum frequency 135.75Hz, and taking the driving voltage data g as driving voltage data corresponding to a seventh sub-frequency interval 106.5 Hz-135.75 Hz; and displaying driving voltage data h corresponding to standard brightness alpha+beta by the test display panel at the eighth maximum frequency 135.75Hz, and taking the driving voltage data h as driving voltage data corresponding to the eighth sub-frequency interval 135.75 Hz-165 Hz.
