Description

LCD with regulatable gradation coefficient curve
Technical field
The present invention relates to Liquid Crystal Display And Method For Driving, more particularly, relate to the control gamma curves adapting to the LCD of input gray level level data, thereby show the screen picture of high-contrast and do not lose any gray-scale data.
Background technology
Generally, under the situation of LCD, needed grayscale voltage quantity is directly proportional with the quantity of data bit (bit).For example, 3 Bit datas are corresponding to 8 grayscale voltages.Recently proposed 6 bits or 8 Bit datas are used for display application, therefore, the quantity of needed gray-scale data will increase a lot.
And, make that in independent mode all this quantitative increases of grayscale voltage are very difficult.Therefore, the drive integrated circult that is used for LCD only receives 8 or 9 grayscale voltages from the external world, and the electric resistance partial pressure method generates middle grayscale voltage.
For example, from 10 grayscale voltage V0 to V9 of external world's input, and intermediate voltage value generates in drive integrated circult inside according to predetermined rule.Make the grayscale voltage value sequence tend to form a curve.Because liquid crystal carries out light transmission with nonlinear way, so should proofread and correct to obtain consistent light-transfer characteristic.This is called " gamma correction ", and will be used for the curve that gamma proofreaies and correct and be called " gamma curves ".
Figure 1A to 1C is the figure of this gamma curves of explanation, and wherein brightness range is expressed as the function of gray-scale data scope.Shown in Figure 1A, TFT LCD module commonly used has the gamma curves of γ=2.2.
But this have some shortcomings about the fixing gamma curves of input gray level level data.
Under the situation of brighter relatively screen picture, such as longshore landscape, most input gray level level data are high brightness, and therefore at whole screen area, contrast descends.That is to say that shown in Figure 1B, brightness range diminishes, the result causes contrast to descend.
Shown in Fig. 1 C, under the situation of darker relatively screen picture, such as the forest landscape, most input gray level level data are low-light level, therefore also descend in whole screen area contrast.
For this reason, in most LCD monitors or graphics card, be set to user oneself and can directly select and use suitable gamma curves.
Mainly use the user under the situation of bright screen curtain, the gamma constant is set to greater than 2.2.On the contrary, mainly use the user under the situation of dark screen, the gamma constant is set to less than 2.2.Like this, brightness range broadens, thus enhancing contrast ratio.
But there are the following problems for the technology of aforesaid control gamma curves.
Because gamma curves is to fixedly install or manually operated, so the control of gamma curves should one by one be carried out respectively under different display screen states.Under the situation of γ>2.2, show slinkingly and show that screen will become darker, and contrast descends.On the contrary, under the situation of γ<2.2, it is brighter that the bright screen curtain will become, and contrast descends.
In addition, under the situation of γ>2.2, gray-scale data will be extracted predetermined total amount, thereby in the color zones data degradation near black.On the contrary, under the situation of γ<2.2, gray-scale data will be increased predetermined total amount, thereby in the color zones data degradation near white.The gray-scale data that this makes impossible all expectations of expression.
For example, when showing zero (0), may change gray-scale data by removing or increase by four (4) individual gray-scale data to 63 (63) individual gray-scale data.In this case, lose and approach 0 to the 3rd complete black gray-scale data or approach complete the 66th to the 63rd white gray-scale data.
Along with gamma curves control is carried out with big more grade, the data total amount increase irrelevant with the gray shade scale expression of expectation is big more.
