In addition, import enabling signal STHs with LSI91 to gate drivers 50 and drain driver 60 from the panel driving of additional circuit substrate 90.Corresponding therewith, produce sampled signal successively, according to each sampled signal, sampling transistor SP1, SP2 ... SPn is conducting successively, and sampling also provides data image signal D.Sig to each drain signal line 61.
Here, illustrate that having applied first row is the signal line 51 of signal G1.At first, by signal G1, each pixel selection TFT72 of each pixel electrode that links to each other with signal line 51 is in the horizontal scan period conducting.Note first row, the first row pixel electrode, by sampled signal SP1, the data image signal S11 that arrives to drain signal line 61 input samples.Then, select pixel selection TFT72 to become conducting state by signal, just to holding circuit 110 supplied with digital signal D.Sig, and by 2 phase inverters maintenances.
The signal that is kept by this phase inverter is input in the signal selecting circuit 120, selects signal A or signal B in this signal selecting circuit 120, is applied in the pixel electrode 17 signals selected, and this voltage is applied in the liquid crystal 21.
Then, by the signal line since first row is scanned till delegation's signal line to the end, 1 picture (1 field interval) scanning is that whole spot scans finish, and just shows a width of cloth picture.
Here, when showing a width of cloth picture, stop to gate drivers 50 and drain driver 60 and add panel driving providing voltage, thereby stop its driving with LSI91.In holding circuit 110, provide driving voltage VDD, VSS to drive usually, provide reverse electrode voltage to reverse electrode 32, give and select circuit 120 that signal A and B are provided.
Promptly, in holding circuit 110, drive driving voltage VDD, the VSS that this holding circuit is used, apply reverse electrode voltage VCOM to reverse electrode, display panels 100 is in the situation of conventional power (NW), signal A is applied AC drive voltage with reverse electrode voltage same potential, signal B is applied alternating voltage (for example 60Hz) so that drive liquid crystal.Thus, can keep a width of cloth picture and be shown as still frame.In addition, other gate drivers 50, drain driver 60 and add and become the state that does not apply voltage among the LSI91.
At this moment, in drain signal line 61, import in the situation of H (height) signals to holding circuit 110 by data image signal, because input " L " causes a TFT121 to become ending in a TFT121 in signal selecting circuit 120, on the other hand, to 2TFT122 input " H " 2TFT122 being become ends.Thus, select signal B, apply the voltage of signal B to liquid crystal.That is, apply the alternating voltage of signal B, owing to raise by the electromotive force of electric field generation liquid crystal, the demonstration that can observe the NW display panel becomes black the demonstration.
In drain signal line 61, by data image signal when the holding circuit 110 input L, because signal selecting circuit 120 is imported " H " and caused a TFT121 to become conducting in a TFT121, on the other hand, to 2TFT122 input " L " 2TFT122 is become and end.Thus, select signal A, apply the voltage of signal A to liquid crystal.That is, owing to apply and reverse electrode 32 identical voltages, do not produce electric field, the electromotive force of liquid crystal does not raise, and the demonstration that can observe the NW display panel becomes white demonstration.
Thus, by writing a secondary picture and it being kept showing rest image, in this case,, can reduce corresponding therewith consumed power owing to stop the driving of each driver 50,60 and LSI91.
For the foregoing description, holding circuit 110 only keeps 1 bit, certainly, if holding circuit is compared specialization more, then can carry out the gray scale demonstration by enough memory modes, if with the storer of holding circuit as the storage analogue value, then also the available memory operator scheme is carried out panchromatic demonstration.
As mentioned above, according to embodiments of the invention, use 1 display panels 100 can carry out corresponding so-called two kinds of demonstrations: panchromatic moving image shows (situation of simulation display mode), and the low consumpting power digital gray scale shows (situation of digital display mode).
Secondly, the layout of the embodiment of the invention is described with Fig. 2.Fig. 2 shows the synoptic diagram of the layout of current embodiment.The loop that is connected in series selects the P P-channel circuit of circuit to select the N raceway groove pixel selection TFT71 of TFT41, pixel selection circuit, loop to select the P P-channel circuit of circuit to select TFT44, and is connected with auxiliary capacitor 85 when being connected to pixel electrode 17 by contact point 16.Connecting the N raceway groove by contact point 16 in pixel electrode 17 selects TFT circuit 42, N raceway groove pixel selection TFT72, holding circuit 110 and loop to select the N channel TFT 45 of circuit.Said structure all is an overlay configuration on pixel electrode 17.
The circuit structure that disposes in each pixel is because roughly the same in each pixel, and therefore showing greatly between the mutual pixel in the circuit arrangement between the adjacent pixels on the column direction is that axle becomes a line symmetry.That is, for figure the last the 1st pixel that lists, the pixel upper end disposes signal line 51, and pixel the latter half disposes holding circuit 110.For last the 2nd row pixel of figure, the pixel lower end disposes signal line 51, and pixel the first half disposes holding circuit 110.Similarly, have and the identical configuration of the 1st row for the 3rd row that do not illustrate on the figure: signal line 51 is in the upper end, and holding circuit 110 is configured in the latter half.
As mentioned above, holding circuit 110 is SRAM.In holding circuit 110, be connected with 2 kinds of height 2 kinds of driving power supply lines (LVDD, LVSS), height with reference to power lead (signal A, signal B) 4 power leads altogether.These power leads extend on line direction, and are identical with signal line 51, auxiliary capacitance line 87, all shared these power leads of each pixel of this row.It more than is the common ground during image element circuit is arranged.For current embodiment, the layout difference of each image element circuit.The layout of each image element circuit is being the layout of line symmetry each other between neighbor on the column direction.It is shared that 110,4 power leads of holding circuit that disposing adjacent pixels on column direction close to each other with 4 power leads of clamping become 110 of both sides' holding circuits.That is, dispose each bar power lead, and the whole holding circuits corresponding with 2 row pixels link to each other with 1 ratio of configuration in 2 row pixels.Therefore, compare and to reduce the quantity of half with the power lead that on line direction, extends of configuration in each row.Have the active matrix type display of holding circuit 110 because the circuit that is provided with is many in each pixel, therefore reduce the circuit structure element, just can cause dwindling elemental area.Therefore, can make the display device high precision int that has holding circuit.
For example, because signal line 51 is necessary to make its conducting with different timings in each row, therefore can not in different rows, cross-over connection share.In contrast, Gong You 4 power leads provide the line of holding circuit 110 driving voltages and reference voltage in the present embodiment, regardless of being pixel selection, not selecting and pixel displaying contents (white, black), all providing the common voltage that applies continuously in the pixel holding circuit 110.Thus, can be in a plurality of row cross-over connection shared.Based on same reason, active matrix type display can carry out colour and show that neighbor each other can the common source line.That is, the present invention not only can arrange with a kind of color bar line on column direction, but also can implement the data ordering that RGB differentially disposes respectively mutually equally.
Secondly, the relation on above-mentioned 4 power leads and pixel electrode 17 layouts is described.Fig. 3 shows the schematic layout pattern of the boundary member of neighbor GS1, GS2 on Fig. 2 column direction.As shown in the figure, the power lead of being shared by 2 pixel GS1, GS2 19 (being the power lead LVDD to the SRAM of holding circuit 110 power supply in the drawings) is in side's pixel for example on the pixel GS2 during overlap extension, respectively to pixel GS1, GS2 direction upper bifurcation, source electrode 110S, the 110S with the thin film transistor (TFT) TFT that constitutes each SRAM contacts by contact point 18,18 in the way.
In such layout, between the pixel electrode 17 of pixel GS2 and power lead 19, form stray capacitance by dielectric film.Because it is very big that this stray capacitance is compared with the stray capacitance that forms between the pixel electrode 17 of pixel GS and power lead 19, therefore the influence for the pixel electrode 17,17 of stray capacitance just becomes imbalance.For this reason, produce the influence of stray capacitance in each pixel, striped anyhow occurs on picture, display quality reduces.
Therefore, power lead 19 not with the pixel GS1 of the overlapping side of pixel electrode 17 in, power lead 19 by the design bifurcated is expanded the overlapping region 20 that forms on pixel electrode 17, increase the stray capacitance between pixel electrode 17 and the power lead 19, the stray capacitance balance that itself and neighbor GS2 are had is eliminated the influence of stray capacitance.Here, preferably pass through the expansion overlapping region 20 of designing power supply line 19, so that for neighbor GS1, GS2, the parasitic capacitance value that forms equates between pixel electrode 17 and power lead 19.
Power lead 19 is not limited to the high voltage one end driving power supply line (LVDD) of holding circuit 110, can also be with reference to low-voltage one end of power lead (signal A, signal B), holding circuit 110 driving power supply line (LVSS), transmit signal B with reference to one in the power lead.
For above-mentioned layout,, there is no need to overlap on the pixel electrode 17 though power lead 19 can directly carry out capacitive coupling by overlapping on the pixel electrode 17.For example, in the situation about linking to each other between the source electrode that makes TFT by intermediate electrode layer and pixel electrode 17, power lead 19 by the target interlayer indirectly and pixel electrode 17 capacitive coupling.But, on pixel electrode 17, expand the overlapping region 20 that constitutes for said power 19, there is no need to overlap on the pixel electrode 17, overlappingly on intermediate electrode layer as mentioned above also can reach identical effect.
But the LCD of present embodiment is a reflection type LCD.Figure 4 illustrates Fig. 2 A-A ' cross-sectional view of the reflection type LCD of present embodiment.On a side dielectric substrate 10, be arranged with the island semiconductor layer 11 that forms by polycrystal silicon, cover on it and disposed gate insulating film 12.As the top of semiconductor layer 11, on gate insulator 12, disposed grid 13, the lower floor's semiconductor layer 11 in the both sides that are arranged in this grid 13 is formed with source electrode and drain electrode.On source electrode 13 and gate insulating film 12, its covering is formed interlayer insulating film 14.Then, with drain electrode and source electrode correspondence position on form contact point, by this contact point, drain electrode links to each other with pixel selection TFT71, source electrode passes through contact point 16 and links to each other with pixel electrode 17.Each pixel electrode 17 that forms on smooth insulation film 15 is to be made of aluminium reflecting materials such as (Al).On each pixel electrode 17 and smooth insulation film 15, form the alignment films of forming by with the polyimide of liquid crystal 21 orientations 20.
On other dielectric substrate 30, reverse electrode 32 that order formation red by presenting (R), green (G), blue versicolor colored filters 31 such as (B), ITO transparent and electrically conductive films such as (Indium Tin Oxide) are formed and the alignment films 33 that liquid crystal 21 is orientated.Certainly, in not preparing to carry out colored situation about showing, do not need colored filter 31.
Paste so periphery of a pair of insulativity substrate 10,30 of formation, filling liquid crystal 21 between the slit that forms thus by the adhibit quality encapsulant.
For reflection type LCD, shown in the figure dotted line,, and, can observe its demonstration to the ejaculation of observer's 1 one sides by the exterior light of pixel electrode 17 reflections from the 30 1 side incidents of insulativity substrate.
Therefore which kind of element reflection type LCD disposes because light can not see through pixel electrode 17 below pixel electrode 17, can the logarithm value aperture not influential.Therefore, by needing larger area holding circuit 110, can obtain and the common identical pixel separation of LCD in 17 times configurations of pixel electrode.As current embodiment, need below pixel electrode, not dispose complete structure, can be between pixel electrode the configuration section structure.
Secondly, with reference to description of drawings the present invention the 2nd embodiment.Fig. 5 shows the synoptic diagram of current embodiment plane figure.Current embodiment is the striped arrangement of RGB shades of colour pixel adjusting to a line configuration, in each pixel electrode 17, arranges corresponding to any colored filter of RGB, illustrates as 17R, 17G, 17B in the drawings.Each pixel of RGB has the circuit identical with Fig. 2, so that in each pixel, keep the data of each pixel in holding circuit 110.
Current embodiment is characterised in that the circuit layout in the layout, holding circuit, selection circuit, auxiliary capacitor of pixel electrode 71 is inconsistent.To describe this difference in detail below.Concerned pixel electrode 17R at first.Arrange pixel electrode 17R in accompanying drawing left side, it is long rectangular-shaped for presenting on above-below direction.The contact point that comes remarked pixel electrode 17R to link to each other with 16R with this circuit.Then, the circuit that is connected in series is selected TFT41R, 44R, pixel selection TFT71R, and wherein a part extends to the pixel electrode 17G as neighbor.Similarly, auxiliary capacitor 85R, holding circuit 110R also extend to pixel electrode 17G.Pixel electrode 17G links to each other with related circuit by contact point 16G, circuit selection TFT41G, pixel selection TFT71G, auxiliary capacitor 85G, holding circuit 110G overlapping arrangement on as the pixel electrode 17R of neighbor.
The circuit corresponding with pixel electrode 17R, 17G shared signal line 51, and a bit be that the mutual point symmetry in center disposes on the signal line.Below similarly, corresponding with pixel electrode 17B circuit extends to the adjacent illustrated pixel electrode that do not have.If this pixel is pixel electrode 17R ', the circuit corresponding with pixel electrode 17R ' overlaps on the pixel electrode 17B conversely.
The following describes the advantage of configuration like this.For example, as a color pixel, when this pixel was used for the cardinal principle square, each pixel of RGB became vertical rectangle of 3: 1 with RGB3.Each pixel of RGB of general striped arrangement becomes rectangle long on the direction.Below the pixel electrode 17 of like this elongated rectangular, thereby when adjusting layout and arranging holding circuit 110, can cause the difficulty of circuit design.In contrast, according to the present invention, because the layout of pixel electrode 17 is different with circuit layout, circuitous just the becoming of unnecessary wiring there is no need, and therefore improved space efficiency, can reduce the required area of holding circuit.In the situation for the LCD that has holding circuit,, therefore, dwindle holding circuit and can directly cause the height of LCD to become more meticulous owing to mainly be that the shared area of holding circuit is overriding in the minimum area of 1 pixel.
Secondly, the following describes the clamping grid signal wire advantage of configuration circuit symmetrically.Between neighbor in the situation of shared region owing to must adjust circuit layout in each pixel, if therefore neighbor to each other point symmetry dispose, design an image element circuit, can this circuit of reflective design, thereby the raising circuit layout efficiency.But, be necessary to adjust with figure in the line of 4 power leads shown in the pixel upper and lower side.And circuit layout is not a point symmetry, and parallel when mobile when making progress, neighbor signal line each other is necessary to be separated from each other arrangement, is necessary 2 signal lines of every row configuration.In contrast, for current embodiment, because the symmetric offset spread circuit, so 1 of the every row of signal line get final product, do not have necessity of increase.
Current embodiment is identical with first embodiment, dispose holding circuit 110 in pixel upper end and lower end, in the holding circuit between the neighbor 110 on the column direction by clamping power lead (VDD, VSS, signal A, signal B) mode neighbor configuration, and shared these 4 power leads.Therefore, identical with first embodiment, and compare when the every row configuration power lead, power lead can be subdued and be half.
For above-mentioned first, second embodiment, though neighbor can shared 4 power leads, there is no need must shared whole power leads.Closely during 4 power leads of disposed adjacent, in order to link to each other, begin to the wiring of column direction upper bifurcation to produce stray capacitance owing to intersect with whole other 3 power leads from each power lead with holding circuit 110.And, between the holding circuit 110 of the layout of for example current embodiment and auxiliary capacitor 85, during 1 power lead of configuration, can estimate that comp comprehensive layout's effect is better.For this situation, preferably can shared 4 power leads in any power lead.
For above-mentioned first, second embodiment, share the result of power lead, complete line symmetry of circuit arrangement rather than point symmetry exist the stray capacitance that forms between each power lead and the pixel electrode 17 in the different each other situation of pixel.Like this, in pixel signal delay difference to each other, the worry that has display quality to descend.Thus,, 2n (n is a natural number) bar is arranged,, the 2n+1 bar is arranged,, preferably dispose 1 power lead between pixel then at each pixel overlay configuration n bar if share power lead then at each pixel overlay configuration n bar if share power lead in order to make the stray capacitance unanimity.
In above-mentioned first, second embodiment, article 4, power lead (VDD, VSS, signal A, signal B) extends on line direction, although understand the situation that neighbor is shared to each other on column direction, and still, shown in Fig. 1 circuit diagram, also can on column direction, extend configuration.For this situation, with between the row serve as axle to make each pixel circuit configuration be the line symmetry, shared power lead can obtain the identical effect with the 1st, the 2nd embodiment.But, especially for as the sort of situation of the 2nd embodiment layout arrangement, the surplus of layout of extending wiring on column direction is few.Therefore, the layout method that extends on line direction of power lead is relatively good.
In the above-described embodiments, though use reflection type LCD to be illustrated,, can also be applicable to transparent type LCD, can be with transparent pixel electrode and holding circuit overlay configuration.Yet, for transparent type LCD, because the local shading of having disposed metal line can not avoid numerical aperture to reduce.And, in transparent LCD, when below pixel electrode, having disposed holding circuit, may make the transistor maloperation of holding circuit and selection circuit owing to the light that sees through, therefore, be necessary on the grid of all crystals pipe, to add photomask.Therefore, for transparent type LCD, improve numerical aperture and have any problem.
In contrast, can not influence its numerical aperture even what circuit reflection type LCD disposes below pixel electrode.In addition, such for the transparent liquid crystal display device, owing to there is no need to use so-called back of the body irradiation, therefore do not need to light the power of back of the body irradiation observer and opposite side.The initial purpose that has the LCD of holding circuit is in order to reduce consumed power, as display device of the present invention, is applicable to that the reflection type LCD of the low consumpting power that need not carry on the back irradiation is relatively good.
Though the foregoing description uses liquid crystal indicator to be illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, can also be applicable to various display device such as organic EL display, LED display device.
The invention effect
As mentioned above, active matrix type display of the present invention is such display unit: have correspondence In the active matrix type display of the holding circuit of pixel electrode, be connected in the power line example of holding circuit Such as upper extension the in the row direction, and by sharing in holding circuit corresponding to the pixel electrode of arranging with line direction, And shared by the holding circuit corresponding with pixel electrode adjacent on column direction simultaneously, therefore with join at each row Put the situation of power line and compare, the number of power line can be subdued half, owing to can dwindle pixel size, Therefore can become the active matrix type display with the high accuracy holding circuit.
Especially, because total power line provides identical voltage for whole holding circuits, therefore, can be whole Share these power lines on individual line direction and the column direction.
Especially, near between the pixel adjacent on the other direction of ranks, dispose shared power line, be expert at The configuration of the holding circuit of neighbor on the other direction of row is owing to be other direction neighbor with ranks Between be axle or center, share power line by clamping and come balanced configuration, therefore from share power line to the guarantor Hold the continuous wiring of circuit and just shorten, can improve positioning efficiency.
