A waveform diagram illustration of one of the application scenarios of the level-inversion gate 37 as shown in fig. 4;
here, a waveform diagram in the case where the frequency and the phase of the pulse wave signal Sc transmitted on the inversion control line 2 are the same as those of the pulse wave signal Vcom transmitted on the common electrode is described, and one of the characteristics includes: the signal on the 3 rd connection line 63 adopts the pulse wave signal laB2 transmitted on the 3 rd connection line 63 generated by the application scenario of fig. 3, and the signal on the 4 th connection line 54 adopts the pulse wave signal la2 transmitted on the 4 th connection line 54 generated by the application scenario of fig. 4, wherein: t21, T22 are any two adjacent half cycles of the pulse wave signal Sc transmitted on the inversion control line 2.
When the pulse wave signal Sc transmitted on the inversion control line 2 is at a low level during the time T21, the waveform portion identified by the ellipse 63 in the pulse wave signal laB2 transmitted on the 3 rd connection line 63 is inputted to the 5 th connection line 39 as indicated by the one-way arrow line 61 and forms the waveform portion identified by the ellipse 64 in the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39;
when the pulse wave signal Sc transmitted on the inversion control line 2 is at a high level during the time T22, the waveform portion identified by the ellipse 65 in the pulse wave signal la2 transmitted on the 4 th connection line 54 is inputted to the 5 th connection line 39 as illustrated by the one-way arrow line 62 and forms the waveform portion identified by the ellipse 66 in the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39;
as a result, when the signal Sc is a continuous square wave, the waveform of the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39 is synthesized by alternately cutting out the partial waveform of the pulse wave laB2 transmitted on the 3 rd connection line 63 and the partial waveform of the pulse wave la2 transmitted on the 4 th connection line 54 on the 5 th connection line 39.

here, during the time T14, when the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39 is at the low level, the level portion identified by the ellipse 34 in the fixed high level VH provided on the analog high level line 81 is inputted to the pixel-unit output electrode 44 as illustrated by the one-way arrow line 24 and forms the level portion identified by the ellipse 33 in the pulse wave signal Vpe transmitted on the pixel-unit output electrode 44.
As a result, when the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39 is a continuous square wave, the waveform of the pulse signal Vpe transmitted on the pixel unit output electrode 44 is synthesized by alternately intercepting the fixed low level VL provided on the analog low level line 8 and the fixed high level VH provided on the analog high level line 81 at the pixel unit output electrode 44, wherein the pulse signal Vpe transmitted on the pixel unit output electrode 44 and the pulse wave signal Vcpe transmitted on the 5 th connection line 39 are in an inverse relationship.
Finally, the voltage difference between the electrical signal output on the pixel cell output electrode 44 and the electrical signal applied on the Vcom common electrode will generate an electric field that will be used to control the physical properties of the liquid crystal material filled between the pixel cell output electrode 44 and the Vcom common electrode.
