Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without inventive step, are within the scope of the present disclosure.
In the description of the present application, it is noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
A GOA (Gate Driver on array) type display panel usually includes a timing control unit and a GDL (Gate Driver less) unit. The GDL units are arranged on two sides of the display panel, and the time sequence control unit is used for outputting driving signals to the GDL units, so that the GDL units can start scanning lines in the display panel line by line, and the display panel is driven to display.
As shown in fig. 1, the driving signals output by the timing control unit include a Start Vertical (STV) signal, clock signals CK1 to CKN, a low frequency signal LC1, a low frequency signal LC2, and the like, and during the debugging process of the display panel, an engineer needs to check whether the waveform of the debugged signal meets the debugging requirement. In the prior art, an oscilloscope is usually adopted to display the waveform of a driving signal, and then an engineer determines whether the waveform of the driving signal meets requirements through eye observation, namely, whether characteristic values such as the period, duty ratio, phase and the like of the driving signal meet the requirements is checked, so that the checking method is time-consuming, labor-consuming and low in efficiency.
Referring to fig. 2-3 together, the problem of time and labor consuming and low efficiency of the conventional driving signal waveform detection method is solved. The embodiment of the application provides a driving signal detection device 10. The driving signal detecting device 10 is used for detecting whether the characteristic value of the signal meets the requirement, for example, the driving signal output by the timing control unit 20 can be detected.

Specifically, the analog-to-digital conversion unit 120 includes a crystal oscillator module SJT and an analog-to-digital converter 121. The crystal oscillator module SJT is configured to generate a pulse signal CLK and output the pulse signal CLK to the analog-to-digital converter 121, where a sampling frequency of the analog-to-digital converter 121 is a frequency of the pulse signal CLK, and in order to ensure accuracy of a detection result of a driving signal characteristic value, a frequency of the pulse signal CLK is preferably more than 10 times a frequency of a signal to be detected, for example, frequencies of the clock signals CK1 to CKN. The digital driving signals are binary sequences arranged according to time sequence.
The processing unit 200 is electrically connected to the plurality of signal conversion units 100 and the human-computer interaction unit 300, and the processing unit 200 is configured to receive a target characteristic value corresponding to each driving signal output by the human-computer interaction unit 300 and a digital driving signal output by the plurality of signal conversion units 100, detect a characteristic value of each digital driving signal to obtain a corresponding measured characteristic value, compare the measured characteristic value of the digital driving signal with the corresponding target characteristic value, and output a corresponding comparison result to the human-computer interaction unit 300 to indicate a difference between the measured characteristic value and the corresponding target characteristic value. The measured characteristic value of each digital driving signal comprises at least one of a measured period, a measured duty ratio and a measured phase, and the target characteristic value of each digital driving signal correspondingly comprises at least one of a target period, a target duty ratio and a target phase.
The human-computer interaction unit 300 includes an input unit and an output unit. The output unit is configured to receive a target characteristic value (e.g., a target period, a target duty cycle, and a target phase of each clock signal) corresponding to each driving signal input by a user and output the target characteristic value to the processing unit 200. The output unit is configured to receive the comparison result output by the processing unit 200, so as to show the difference between the actual measurement characteristic value of each driving signal and the corresponding target characteristic value to a user.

Wherein the m-bit cycle data segment includes m-bit binary data arranged in series in the digital type driving signal. Wherein m has a starting value of 2. If it is determined that there is an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, where the number of cycles reaches a preset number (e.g., 100), step 642 is executed, otherwise step 643 is executed. For example, taking the driving signal as the clock signal Ck1 in fig. 1 as an example, assuming that the voltage value of the high level VDD in the high/low level signals is 1, the voltage value of the low level VGND is 0, and the digital driving signal corresponding to the clock signal Ck1 is 00000001111100000 … 1111100000 … 1111100000 …, the cycle data segment is 1111100000, that is, m =10.
And 642, determining the actually measured period of the digital driving signal according to the bit number m of the m-bit cyclic data segment. Specifically, the actual measurement period of the digital type driving signal may be determined according to the sampling period of the analog-to-digital converter and the number m of bits of the cyclic data segment, for example, assuming that the sampling period of the analog-to-digital converter is 1ms, the actual measurement period T1=10 × 1ms =10ms.
In step 643, m = m +1 is taken, and the process returns to step 641, and it is determined again whether there is an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, where the cycle number reaches the preset number. It is understood that in the embodiment of the present application, 2 is used as the starting value of m, that is, whether there are a 2-bit cycle data segment, a 3-bit cycle data segment, and a 4-bit cycle data segment … … in the digital driving signal in sequence is determined, and until it is determined that there is an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, the step 643 is not executed.

Wherein the preset period error threshold is determined according to the detection precision of the driving signal detection device 10.

Optionally, the second indication signal may further include a measured period value of the driving signal, so that an engineer adjusts the period of the driving signal accordingly according to the measured period value.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a second detailed flowchart of steps 640 and 650 in fig. 4. Wherein, step 641, step 643 and step 644 in fig. 6 are the detailed flows of step 640 in fig. 4, and step 654 to step 656 in fig. 6 are the detailed flows of step 650 in fig. 4.
Step 641, determining whether there exists an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, where the cycle number reaches a preset number. Wherein the m-bit cycle data segment includes m-bit binary data arranged in series in the digital type driving signal. Wherein m has a starting value of 2. If it is determined that there is an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, where the number of cycles reaches a preset number, step 642 is executed, otherwise step 643 is executed.
And 644, dividing the accumulated digit with the value of 1 in the m-digit cyclic data segment by the digit m to obtain the actually measured duty ratio of the digital driving signal. For example, taking the driving signal as the clock signal Ck1 in fig. 1 as an example, assuming that the voltage value of the high level VDD in the high/low level signal is 1, the voltage value of the low level VGND is 0, the sampling period of the analog-to-digital converter is 1ms, and the digital driving signal corresponding to the clock signal Ck1 is 00000001111100000 … 1111100000 … 1111100000 …, then the cyclic data segment is 1111100000, i.e., m =10, the measured period T1=10 × 1ms =10ms of the clock signal Ck1, and the number of bits with a value of 1 in the cyclic data segment 1111100000 is 5, i.e., d1=10 × 1ms =10ms, so that the measured duty ratio of the clock signal Ck1 is =50%.
In step 643, m = m +1 is taken, and the process returns to step 641, and it is determined again whether there is an m-bit cycle data segment in the digital driving signal, where the cycle number reaches the preset number.
And step 654, judging whether the difference value between the actually measured duty ratio of the digital driving signal and the corresponding target duty ratio is less than or equal to a preset duty ratio error threshold value. If the difference value between the actually measured duty ratio of the digital driving signal and the corresponding target duty ratio is determined to be less than or equal to the preset duty ratio error threshold value, executing step 655, otherwise, executing step 656. Wherein the preset duty error threshold is determined according to the detection precision of the driving signal detection device 10.

Optionally, the fourth indication signal may further include a measured duty cycle value of the driving signal, so that an engineer adjusts the duty cycle of the driving signal accordingly according to the measured duty cycle value.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a third flowchart of the steps 640 and 650 in fig. 4. Wherein, steps 645 to 646 in fig. 7 are the refinement flow of step 640 in fig. 4, and steps 657 to 659 in fig. 7 are the refinement flow of step 650 in fig. 4. In this embodiment, the driving signals include a frame start signal and N clock signals.
Step 645, determining a time corresponding to a first data bit with a value of 1 in the digital frame start signal corresponding to the frame start signal as a start time.
In step 646, the time length from the starting time to the time corresponding to the first data bit with the value of 1 in the digital clock signals corresponding to each clock signal is determined as the measured phase of each clock signal. As shown in fig. 1, the measured phase of the clock signal Ck1 is a1.
Step 657, for each clock signal, determining whether a difference between a measured phase of the clock signal and a corresponding target phase is less than or equal to a preset phase error threshold. If the difference between the measured phase of the clock signal and the corresponding target phase is determined to be less than or equal to the preset phase error threshold, step 658 is executed, otherwise step 659 is executed.
At step 658, a fifth indication signal is output. Wherein the fifth indication signal is used to indicate that the measured phase of the driving signal meets the requirement.
Step 659, a sixth indication signal is output. Wherein the sixth indication signal is used to indicate that the measured phase of the drive signal is unsatisfactory. Optionally, the sixth indication signal may further include a measured phase value of the driving signal, so that an engineer adjusts the phase of the driving signal accordingly according to the measured phase value.
It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the driving signal detection method provided in the present application may simultaneously detect and compare two or three characteristic values of a Start Vertical (STV), clock signals CK1 to CKN, and a period, a duty ratio, and a phase of the low frequency signal LC1 and the low frequency signal LC2, so that all driving signals of the display panel can be detected at one time, and the detection efficiency is higher.
