The display device may be a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display, TFT-LCD), liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD), organic laser display (Organic Electroluminesence Display, OLED), quantum dot light emitting diode (Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes, QLED) display.
In applications, display devices typically include high definition multimedia interfaces (High Definition Multimedia Interface, HDMI), substrates, motherboards, timing control boards, source drivers, gate drivers, backlight components, and the like. The substrate includes a power management integrated circuit (power management integrated circuit, pmic) for providing an operating voltage for a main board, a timing control board, a data driving board, a scan driving board, etc., and for generating a common voltage. The motherboard comprises a Transition-minimized differential signaling (TMDS) receiver, an analog-to-digital converter, a clock generator, a master control chip (Scaler IC), a microcontroller circuit, an embedded display interface and the like. The microcontroller circuit typically includes a backlight control chip, a display data memory, and the like. The timing control board includes timing controller (TCON, timing Controller), data clock recovery (Clock and Data Recovery, CDR) circuits, and the like. The Source Driver includes a data driving unit, which may be a Source Driver Chip (Source Driver IC) or a thin Film Source Driver Chip (S-COF) for emitting Source signals. The Gate Driver includes a Gate driving unit, which may be a Gate driving Chip (Gate Driver IC) or a thin Film Gate driving Chip (G-COF) for emitting a Gate scan signal.
The backlight source assembly comprises a backlight module, and the backlight module can provide backlight corresponding to the sub-field sequence for the liquid crystal display panel.
It is understood that the manner in which the liquid crystal display device implements color display is classified into a color filtering method and a color field sequential display method. In a liquid crystal display device using a color filtering method, each pixel unit of a display panel is divided into three sub-pixel units, and color filters of corresponding colors are provided for each sub-pixel unit, and light emitted from a backlight source is transmitted to red, green and blue color filters through liquid crystals, thereby forming a color image. In a liquid crystal display device using a color field sequential display method, RGB light sources are arranged in each pixel unit instead of decomposing the pixel unit into three RGB sub-pixel units. And the red, green and blue primary lights emitted by the RGB light source are sequentially emitted through the liquid crystal in a time-sharing mode, and the liquid crystal molecules corresponding to the pixel units are correspondingly controlled to deflect a preset angle in a time-sharing mode, and the gray scales of the corresponding R, G and B primary lights are corresponding, so that the afterimage effect is used for displaying the color image.
In this embodiment, the display panel is driven by a color field sequential display method.
Because the conventional color field sequence display method writes pixel driving data corresponding to the color component diagram into the liquid crystal display panel in the sub-field sequence, after the pixel driving data writing is completed, the liquid crystal in the liquid crystal display panel is driven and moves to the position corresponding to the color component diagram; and then controlling the backlight module to start the backlight with the color corresponding to the sub-field sequence so as to realize the display of the color component diagram in the corresponding field sequence. However, the writing process of the pixel driving data may result in a shorter time for turning on the backlight, which may affect the overall display brightness and color gamut.
Fig. 2 is a timing chart of color field sequential display of a conventional display panel, and as shown in fig. 2, a frame of color display is divided into three sub-field sequences of RGB, and a completed frame of color display is formed by overlapping the three sub-field sequences. Each frame of the sub-field sequence can be divided into three phases: writing data, turning over liquid crystal, and emitting light by backlight; with the current higher and higher requirements of people on display resolution, the data writing amount will become larger and longer, so that the time of writing data becomes longer and longer, which compresses the time of backlight light emission, and the actual duty ratio of display light emission becomes smaller, thereby influencing the realization of high brightness and high color gamut of the display.
The display device of the embodiment can overlap the pixel driving data writing stage of the next subfield sequence and the light emitting stage of the previous subfield sequence, so that the defect of the conventional color field sequence display of fig. 2 can be overcome, the time required by the pixel driving data writing stage is greatly saved, the duty ratio of backlight light emission is improved, and the display brightness of the display panel is improved.
Example two
As shown in fig. 3, the driving method of the display panel provided in the second embodiment of the present application is applied to the display device, where the display panel includes a plurality of pixel units, the pixel units include a storage capacitor and a liquid crystal capacitor, and the time required for displaying each frame of image of the display panel includes a plurality of sub-field sequences, and the sub-field sequences sequentially include a data writing period, a liquid crystal inversion period, and a backlight light emission period;
accordingly, the driving method of the present embodiment includes the following steps S10 to S40:
step S10, determining first display data required by the sub-field sequence i and second display data required by the sub-field sequence i+1, wherein i is a positive integer.
The driving method of the display panel of the present embodiment is performed by a controller of the display device, and the timing controller TCON is taken as an example of the controller of the display device. In this embodiment, one pixel unit corresponds to three sub-field sequences.
In this embodiment, the time required for the display panel to display each frame of image may include at least two sub-field sequences, i.e., sub-field sequence i and sub-field sequence i+1;
for example, when a gate signal is scanned to a thin film transistor in a pixel unit of a display panel during displaying a frame of a picture, a source driver supplies display data (i.e., pixel driving data) to the thin film transistor in the pixel unit, and in a subfield sequence i of the frame of the picture, the pixel driving data required by each pixel unit is called first display data; in the sub-field sequence i+1 of the frame, the pixel driving data required for each pixel unit is referred to as second display data.
Step S20, writing the first display data into the liquid crystal capacitor in the data writing period of the subfield sequence i so as to enable the pixel electrode of the pixel unit of the display panel to keep the gray scale voltage corresponding to the first display data;
in a specific application, as shown in fig. 4, the time required for the display panel to display each frame of image may include a sub-field order R (corresponding to sub-field order i), a sub-field order G (corresponding to sub-field order i+1), and a sub-field order B (corresponding to sub-field order i+2) in order;
in the data writing period of the subfield sequence i, pixel driving data in a liquid crystal capacitor needs to be erased, and the first display data (R pixel driving data) is written into the liquid crystal capacitor; for example: erasing display data required by the sub-field sequence i-1 in the liquid crystal capacitor in the data writing period of the sub-field sequence i; and writing the first display data in the storage capacitor into the liquid crystal capacitor in the data writing period of the subfield sequence i.
And driving the liquid crystal capacitor to turn over corresponding liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal turning-over period of the subfield sequence i, so that the pixel electrode of the pixel unit of the display panel keeps the gray scale voltage corresponding to the R pixel driving data.
Step S30, temporarily storing the second display data to the storage capacitor in the backlight light emitting period of the sub-field sequence i, and providing backlight for the display panel;
it can be understood that the second display data required by the next subfield sequence G is temporarily stored in the storage capacitor in the backlight emission period of the subfield sequence R, so that the pixel driving data writing stage of the next subfield sequence overlaps with the emission stage of the previous subfield sequence.
Step S40, in the data writing period of the subfield sequence i+1, writing the second display data in the storage capacitor into the liquid crystal capacitor, so that the pixel electrode of the pixel unit maintains the gray scale voltage corresponding to the second display data.
In a specific implementation, during the data writing period of the subfield sequence i+1, the first display data in the liquid crystal capacitor is erased.
It can be understood that the data writing period of the sub-field sequence G may entirely erase the R pixel driving data in the liquid crystal capacitor, write the G pixel driving data (second display data) temporarily stored in the storage capacitor into the liquid crystal capacitor, and drive the liquid crystal capacitor to turn over the corresponding liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal turning period of the sub-field sequence G, so that the pixel electrode of the pixel unit of the display panel maintains the gray scale voltage corresponding to the G pixel driving data.
The pixel driving data required by the next sub-field sequence B is temporarily stored in a storage capacitor, and backlight is provided for the display panel; the pixel driving data writing stage of the next sub-field sequence is still overlapped with the light emitting stage of the previous sub-field sequence;
further, the data writing period of the sub-field sequence B is to entirely erase the G pixel driving data in the liquid crystal capacitor, write the B pixel driving data (third display data) temporarily stored in the storage capacitor into the liquid crystal capacitor, and drive the liquid crystal capacitor to turn over corresponding to the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal turning period of the sub-field sequence B, so that the pixel electrode of the pixel unit of the display panel maintains the gray scale voltage corresponding to the B pixel driving data, and the display panel can display a frame of RGB color picture, thereby saving the time required by the pixel driving data writing period, and further improving the duty ratio of backlight light emission, and further improving the display brightness of the display panel.
