Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of displays, in particular to a cholesterol liquid crystal display and a driving method thereof.
Background
As is well known, a cholesteric liquid crystal display is generally formed by a passive matrix formed by intersecting a plurality of scanning lines (Row) and a plurality of data lines (Column), wherein each scanning line and each data line intersect to form a Pixel (Pixel), and the Pixel generates different liquid crystal transitions through voltage differences provided by the corresponding scanning line and the data line to generate different gray scales. Conventionally, a driving circuit of a cholesteric liquid crystal display applies a voltage to a scan line and a data line, and drives a pixel through a voltage difference between the scan line and the data line. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the prior art of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the driving circuit (not shown) applies the levels V1 and V2 to the data line and the scan line respectively in the first time section t1, the voltage difference between the two voltages is V1-V2, and applies the levels V3 and V4 to the data line and the scan line respectively in the second time section t2, the voltage difference between the two voltages is V3-V4, and the pixel is driven by the voltage difference between the two voltages. Taking the actual voltage as an example: v1=10v, v2=5v, v3= -10v, v4= -5V.
Since the cholesterol lcd needs to apply a voltage to each scan line row by row during imaging, and when applying a voltage to the current scan line, the pixel of the previous imaged scan line is easily electrically disturbed due to the effects of fast voltage switching and parasitic capacitance, so that a problem of crosstalk (crosstalk) is caused.
Accordingly, a primary object of the present invention is to provide a cholesteric liquid crystal display and a driving method thereof to solve the above-mentioned problems.
Disclosure of Invention

To achieve at least one of the advantages and other advantages, an embodiment of the present invention provides a driving method of a cholesteric liquid crystal display, which is suitable for a cholesteric liquid crystal display, the cholesteric liquid crystal display having scan lines, data lines, and pixels, the driving method comprising: applying a first voltage and a second voltage to the data line and the scanning line respectively in the first time section; applying a third voltage to the data line and/or a fourth voltage to the scan line in the second time section; applying a fifth voltage and a sixth voltage to the data line and the scan line respectively in the third time section; the first voltage and the second voltage are high, the sixth voltage and the fifth voltage are low, the third voltage and the fourth voltage are between the high and the low, and the pixel is driven by the voltage difference applied to the scanning line and the data line.
To achieve at least one of the advantages and other advantages, another embodiment of the invention provides a cholesterol liquid crystal display, which includes a driving circuit, a scanning line, a data line and a pixel. The scanning line and the data line are electrically connected to the driving circuit, and the pixels are electrically connected to the scanning line and the data line. The driving circuit applies a first voltage and a second voltage to the data line and the scanning line respectively in a first time section, applies a third voltage to the data line and/or a fourth voltage to the scanning line respectively in a second time section, applies a fifth voltage and a sixth voltage to the data line and the scanning line respectively in a third time section, the first voltage and the second voltage are at high levels, the sixth voltage and the fifth voltage are at low levels, the levels of the third voltage and the fourth voltage are between the high level and the low level, and the pixel is driven by a voltage difference applied to the scanning line and the data line.
In some embodiments, the third voltage is substantially equal to the fourth voltage.
In some embodiments, the third voltage is substantially different from the fourth voltage.
In some embodiments, the first time period is substantially equivalent to the third time period, and the second time period is no more than 20% of the first time period.
Therefore, by using the third voltage applied to the data line and/or the fourth voltage applied to the scan line, the cholesterol liquid crystal display and the driving method thereof can improve the voltage interference to the pixels of the previous scan line caused by the rapid charge conversion when the scan line is continuously turned on, thereby improving the color cast or crosstalk (cross talk) problem of the traditional cholesterol liquid crystal display.

As shown in fig. 2, the cholesteric liquid crystal display 200 includes a driving circuit 20, a scanning line 21, a data line 22, and a pixel 23. It should be noted that the cholesteric liquid crystal display 200 shown in fig. 2 further includes a plurality of scan lines 21 and data lines 22 and a plurality of pixels 23 formed by intersecting the scan lines and the data lines, and only one pixel is shown in the embodiment.
FIG. 3 is a schematic waveform diagram of scan lines, data lines and pixels according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the driving circuit 20 applies a first voltage V1 and a second voltage V2 to the data line 21 and the scan line 22 respectively in a first time period t1, applies a third voltage V3 and a fourth voltage V4 to the data line 21 and the scan line 22 respectively in a second time period t2, and applies a fifth voltage V5 and a sixth voltage V6 to the data line 21 and the scan line 22 respectively in a third time period t 3. The first voltage V1 and the second voltage V2 are high, the sixth voltage V6 and the fifth voltage V5 are low, the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 are between the high and the low, and the pixel 23 is driven by the voltage difference applied to the data line 21 and the scan line 22. For example, v1=10v, v2=5v, v3=v4=0v, v5= -10V, v6= -5V. In the present embodiment, the driving circuit 20 further applies the seventh voltage V7 and the eighth voltage V8 to the data line 21 and the scan line 22 respectively in a fourth time period t 4.
With reference to fig. 3, when voltages are applied to the data line 21 and the scan line 22 according to the above method, waveforms of the corresponding pixels 23 are shown in the lower part of fig. 3, it can be seen that when the pixels 23 are in the second time period t2, a turning level appears in the middle of the transition from the high level to the low level due to the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 respectively applied to the data line 21 and the scan line 22, and the turning level can generate a buffering effect between the voltage changes, thereby reducing the voltage interference to the pixels in the imaged area. Although the embodiment is described above in detail, it is known by those skilled in the art that at least one of the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 can be applied to the corresponding data line/scan line at the second time, and the corresponding voltage can be applied to the data line/scan line at least one of the time sections t2 and t4 according to the above-mentioned method, so long as the pixel voltage can be turned from the high level to the low level and/or from the low level to the high level, so as to achieve the effect of the present invention.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the third voltage V3 and the fourth voltage V4 may be substantially the same level (e.g. 0V) as shown in fig. 3, but may be substantially different levels in other embodiments, so long as the logic levels of the two voltages are between the high level and the low level. Similarly, the seventh voltage V7 and the eighth voltage V8 may be substantially the same level (e.g., 0V) as shown in fig. 3, but may be substantially different levels in other embodiments, so long as the logic levels thereof are between the high level and the low level.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first time section t1 is substantially equal to the third time section t3, and the second time section t2 is not more than 20% of the first time section t 1. For example, as shown in fig. 3, the first time period t1 and the third time period t3 are each 5 time units, and the second time period t2 is not more than 1 time unit.
FIG. 4 is a flow chart of a method for driving a cholesteric liquid crystal display in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the method for driving a cholesteric liquid crystal display according to an embodiment of the invention includes steps 401-404. The driving method of the cholesterol liquid crystal display according to an embodiment of the invention is suitable for the cholesterol liquid crystal display shown in fig. 2. Step 401: the first voltage and the second voltage are respectively applied to the scanning line and the data line in the first time section.
