Description

Light emission control method and device and electronic equipment

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to the field of display technologies, and in particular, to a light emission control method, a light emission control apparatus, and an electronic device.

Background

In the related art, the adjustment method for the light emission of the display panel includes Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) dimming.

As shown in fig. 1, the display panel is generally configured to have 4 light-emitting periods in a time period when one frame of image is displayed, each period includes a light-emitting period and a non-light-emitting period, and the duty ratio of each period is the same. The brightness (also understood as gray scale) of each frame of image displayed by the display panel is related to the sum of the lighting time lengths of all the periods within the time of displaying one frame of image, for example, in each period, the low level corresponds to the lighting period t1, then the sum of the cumulative lighting time lengths of 4 periods is 4t1, and the brightness of the image displayed by the display panel is related to 4t 1.

In the related art, the display panel is mainly controlled to emit light by one circuit, the control signal output by the circuit includes 4 periods, and the duty ratio of each period is the same, because the control signal is output by one light emitting circuit, when the control signal output by the circuit is adjusted, the control signal is limited by the structure of the circuit, so that the duty ratios of the circuits in all periods are synchronously adjusted, and the step size of the duty ratio change in each period is the same, for example, the duty ratio needs to be reduced, as shown in fig. 2, the reduced step size is tx, then t1 in each period is reduced to t1-ntx, n is the number of the reduced step sizes, and the cumulative light emitting time length of 4 periods is adjusted to 4t1-4ntx.

It can be seen that the display panel displays the brightness of the image, and the variation granularity of the display panel is related to 4ntx, and since only two variables, namely n and tx, exist in the granularity, it is difficult to set the granularity to be small, and therefore, it is difficult to adjust the brightness of the display panel to display the image with small force.

Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating a lighting control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method shown in this embodiment may be applied to a display panel, where the display panel includes m circuits, and the display panel may be applied to an electronic device with a display function, where the electronic device includes, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, and a wearable device, and the display panel includes, but is not limited to, a liquid crystal display panel, and an organic light emitting diode display panel.

As shown in fig. 3, the light emission control method may include the steps of:

in step S1, n periods of control signals are output by the m circuits to control the display panel to emit light, where the time for the display panel to display one frame of image includes the n periods, different circuits output control signals in different periods, and the duty ratio of the control signal output by at least one of the m circuits is different from the duty ratio of the control signals output by other circuits, and m is greater than or equal to 2,n is greater than or equal to 2;

in step S2, the duty ratio of each output control signal of the circuit is adjusted according to the gray scale of the displayed image, wherein the step length of adjusting the duty ratio is different for the circuits with different duty ratios of the output control signals.

In the related art, since a control signal including 4 cycles is output by one circuit, when the duty ratio of the control signal needs to be adjusted, the adjustment signal may be input to the circuit, but since the adjustment signal can be input only to one circuit, the step size of the circuit that changes the duty ratio for each cycle based on the adjustment signal is the same.

In one embodiment, when the gray scale of the image displayed by the display panel needs to be adjusted, the duty ratio of the control signal output by each circuit can be adjusted according to the gray scale of the displayed image, so that the control signals output by the m circuits can enable the image displayed by the display panel to reach the required gray scale.

The control signals of n periods are output by setting the m circuits, when the duty ratio of the control signals needs to be adjusted, the adjustment signals can be respectively input into the m circuits, even if the adjustment signals are the same, different circuits in the m circuits can output the control signals with different duty ratios due to different circuit structures, and the step length of changing the duty ratios according to the adjustment signals can also be different, so that the step length of adjusting the duty ratios can be different for the circuits outputting the duty ratios of the control signals, and when the duty ratios of each period are adjusted, the duty ratios can be adjusted according to the periods with different duty ratios (the duration of each period can be equal) according to different step lengths.

For example, taking m =2,n =4 as an example, as shown in fig. 4, 2 circuits a and B output two periods of control signals, and a period of each of the 4 periods is equal, where a duty ratio of the two periods corresponding to the control signals output by the circuit a is x, a period of the corresponding light-emitting phase is t1, a duty ratio of the two periods corresponding to the control signals output by the circuit B is y, and a period of the corresponding light-emitting phase is t2.

According to the present embodiment, the circuit a outputting the control signal with the duty ratio x and the circuit B outputting the control signal with the duty ratio y have different steps for adjusting the duty ratio when adjusting the duty ratio, for example, the circuit a may adjust the duty ratio with tx as a step, and the circuit B may adjust the duty ratio with ty as a step.

Then 4 cycles are added up to the lighting period of 2 (t 1+ t 2) for 4 cycles as shown in fig. 4, the 4 cycles after the adjustment of the duty ratio are adjusted to t1-ntx for two cycles of the duty ratio x and t2-nty for two cycles of the duty ratio y as shown in fig. 5, then 4 cycles are added up to the lighting period of 2 (t 1+ t 2) -2 (ntx + nty), the luminance of the image displayed by the display panel is adjusted with a change granularity related to 2 (ntx + nty), and since tx and ty are different, 3 variables exist in 2 (ntx + nty), which is compared to the luminance change granularity 4ntx of the image displayed in the related art shown in fig. 2, it is possible to take a smaller granularity, which facilitates adjustment of the luminance of the multi-value image displayed accurately for adjustment of the display panel to display with a fine gray scale.

It should be noted that, adjusting the duty ratios for the circuits with different duty ratios of the output control signal may all be increasing the duration of the light-emitting phase, may all be decreasing the duration of the light-emitting phase, and may also be increasing the duration of the light-emitting phase for some circuits, and decreasing the duration of the light-emitting phase for other circuits.

In one embodiment, the circuit outputting the control signal with a relatively small duty ratio outputs the control signal alternately with the circuit outputting the control signal with a relatively large duty ratio, so that a period with a relatively small duty ratio is staggered with a period with a relatively large duty ratio.

For example, for the embodiment shown in fig. 5, where the duty cycle x of the control signal output by circuit a is small relative to the duty cycle y of the control signal output by circuit B, point a and circuit B may be set to alternately output control signals such that the period of duty cycle x is staggered with the period of duty cycle y, rather than the period of duty cycle x being continuous.

Because the period with relatively small duty ratio and the duration of the lighting period are relatively short, if the periods with relatively small duty ratio are continuously arranged, the user can watch the period with relatively low duty ratio and the periods with relatively high duty ratio are staggered, the user can watch the period with relatively low duty ratio and the period with relatively high duty ratio, and then the user can watch the period with relatively short lighting duration in one period and the period with relatively high duty ratio and the period with relatively low duty ratio is staggered, so that the user can watch the period with relatively low luminance as a whole, and the problem is avoided.

Optionally, n =4.

In one embodiment, the number of light emitting periods in the time when the display panel displays one frame of image can be adjusted as required, and can be set to n =4, or n can be set to be equal to other integers greater than 1, and n =4 is set, so as to adapt to the current algorithm of the chip for controlling the light emission of the display panel.

In an embodiment, different duty ratios of the circuit output control signals may be set to be different, so that the duty ratio of each of n periods is different, for example, taking n =4 as an example, m circuits may be set to output control signals of 4 periods, and the duty ratio of the control signal of the first period of the 4 periods is x, the duration of the corresponding lighting phase is t1, the duty ratio of the control signal of the second period is y, the duration of the corresponding lighting phase is t2, the duty ratio of the control signal of the third period is z, the duration of the corresponding lighting phase is t3, the duty ratio of the control signal of the fourth period is w, and the duration of the corresponding lighting phase is t4.

The step size of adjusting the duty cycle is different for 4 control signals, for example, the step size of adjusting the duty cycle may be set to tx for a control signal with a duty cycle x, ty for a control signal with a duty cycle y, tz for a control signal with a duty cycle z, and tw for a control signal with a duty cycle w.

Then before the adjustment the 4 control signals correspond to a 4 period cumulative emission duration of (t 1+ t2+ t3+ t 4), for a control signal with a duty cycle of x the duration of the emission phase is adjusted to t1-ntx, for a control signal with a duty cycle of y the duration of the emission phase is adjusted to t2-nty, for a control signal with a duty cycle of z the duration of the emission phase is adjusted to t3-ntz, for a control signal with a duty cycle of w the duration of the emission phase is adjusted to t4-ntw, then the 4 period cumulative emission duration is (t 1+ t2+ t3+ t 4) - (ntx + 54 zxft 3754 + ntz + 5272 zxft 495272 zxft 3772), the display panel displays the luminance of the image, its variation granularity is correlated to (ntx + nty + ntz + ntw), by tx, ty, tz, tw are different from each other, so there are 5 variables in (ntx + nty + ntz + ntw), the number of values can be maximized relative to the luminance variation granularity 4ntx of the display image in the related art, in order to adjust the luminance of the display image with the minimum granularity, in order to adjust the gray scale of the display image of the display panel accurately.

Fig. 6 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating another lighting control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 6, the method further comprises:

in step S3, the number of cycles of the control signals output by the m circuits is adjusted.

In one embodiment, on the basis of adjusting the duty ratio of the light emitting period, the number of periods of the control signals output by the m circuits may also be adjusted, for example, the number of periods may be increased under the condition that the duration of displaying one frame of image is guaranteed to be unchanged, for example, in 4 periods shown in fig. 4, the control circuit a reduces the period of each control signal and sends out one more control signal, and the control circuit B reduces the period of each control signal and sends out one more control signal, that is, adds one period with the duty ratio x and one period with the duty ratio y, so as to increase the 4 periods to 6 periods, which is equivalent to reducing the duration of each period and increasing the number of periods.

For each period, an electrical signal may be input to a pixel unit in the display panel in a light emitting stage so that the pixel unit emits light, for example, for an organic light emitting diode display panel, an anode and a cathode in the pixel unit may generate a voltage across an organic light emitting material so that the organic light emitting material emits light, and by increasing the number of periods, an electrical signal may be input to the pixel unit in more periods, and the electrical signals input for different periods may be different.

The variation of the input electrical signal is more complicated for 6 periods than for 4 periods, for example, for some periods the electrical signal is input (then the display panel is lit) and for some periods the electrical signal is not input (then the display panel is not lit).

Therefore, within the time of displaying one frame of image, it is convenient to generate more kinds of accumulated luminous time length, which is beneficial to adjusting the brightness of the display image with smaller granularity, so as to accurately adjust the gray scale of the display image of the display panel.

Corresponding to the embodiment of the light emitting control method, the present disclosure also provides an embodiment of a light emitting control apparatus.
