Detailed Description
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the present application, the embodiments and features of the embodiments may be arbitrarily combined with each other without conflict.
The steps illustrated in the flow charts of the figures may be performed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Also, while a logical order is shown in the flow diagrams, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in an order different than here.
Unless defined otherwise, technical or scientific terms used herein shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.
In the drawings, the size of each component, the thickness of layers, or regions may be exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not necessarily limited to the dimensions, and the shapes and sizes of the respective components in the drawings do not reflect a true scale. Further, the drawings schematically show ideal examples, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the shapes or numerical values shown in the drawings.
The ordinal numbers such as "first", "second", "third", etc., in this disclosure are provided to avoid confusion among the constituent elements, and do not indicate any order, number, or importance.
In the present disclosure, for convenience, terms indicating orientation or positional relationship such as "middle", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", and the like are used to explain positional relationship of constituent elements with reference to the drawings, only for convenience of description and simplification of description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be configured in a specific orientation, and be operated, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure. The positional relationship of the components is changed as appropriate in accordance with the direction in which each component is described. Therefore, the words described in the disclosure are not limited thereto, and may be replaced as appropriate.
In this disclosure, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly unless otherwise specifically stated or limited. For example, it may be a fixed connection, or a removable connection, or an integral connection; can be a mechanical connection, or an electrical connection; either directly or indirectly through intervening components, or both may be interconnected. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood in specific instances by those of ordinary skill in the art.
In the present disclosure, "electrically connected" includes a case where constituent elements are connected together by an element having some kind of electrical action. The "element having a certain electric function" is not particularly limited as long as it can transmit and receive an electric signal between connected components. Examples of the "element having some kind of electric function" include not only an electrode and a wiring but also a switching element such as a transistor, a resistor, an inductor, a capacitor, other elements having various functions, and the like.
With the improvement of the resolution, the charging time of the MUX is reduced, and the problem of insufficient charging is easy to occur. The decoding ratio of the MUX determines the MUX switching time (Switch time), the MUX Switch time is 1H time (time)/the MUX number, and 1H time is the display time of one row; for example, in a UHD product of 1:2MUX, MUX Switch Time is 1H Time/MUX number is 4.2/2H Time/2.1 us (microseconds), and the Switch Time is about 1.4us after considering signal Delay Time (Delay Time), so that a MUX Thin Film Transistor (TFT) and an Array substrate Gate Driver on Array (GOA) TFT Size (Size) are increased to meet charging requirements. The MUX TFT Size increases resulting in an increase in panel Logic power (Logic power). The power consumption increase of the panel with high pixel density (Pixels Per inc, PPI) is particularly prominent.
If 1 HTime can be increased, the MUX/GOA TFT size can be reduced to reduce logic power consumption. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the MUX TFT size may be reduced by increasing the charging time. In an exemplary embodiment, a left-right alternating GOA driving scheme is adopted, during odd frames, the GOAs corresponding to the odd rows are operated, and the GOAs corresponding to the even rows are not operated, whereas during even frames, the GOAs corresponding to the even rows are operated, and the GOAs corresponding to the odd rows are not operated. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the original one-frame picture is displayed by using the time of two frames, which is similar to the frequency reduction function, the charging time is increased, the charging rate can be improved, and the sizes of the MUX TFT and the GOA TFT are reduced, so that the logic power consumption is reduced.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a GOA timing sequence in a technical solution. The signals (STV _1 to Source) in fig. 1 are signals of the GOA circuit. VDDO and VDDE are signals for driving the power supply terminals of the GOA circuits in the odd-numbered rows and for driving the even-numbered rows, respectively, and are switched in the gap Time (Blanking Time), in this embodiment, the driving frequency is 60Hz, and the 1-frame Time is 16.67 ms; the display duration is 16.67ms (one-frame duration) -7.2ms (touch duration) is 9.47 ms; for example, when the Full High Definition (FHD) panel line number is 1080 and the UHD panel line number is 2160, the 1H Time of FHD is 8.1us and the 1H Time of UHD is 4.2 us. In the actual calculation, when calculating the 1H time of FHD, the used row number is larger than 1080, and when calculating the 1H time of UHD, the used row number is larger than 2160.
