技术领域technical field
本发明涉及一种图像信号传输装置,特别涉及一种整合液晶显示器的图像伽玛值调整电路的数字图像信号传输装置。The invention relates to an image signal transmission device, in particular to a digital image signal transmission device integrating an image gamma value adjustment circuit of a liquid crystal display.
背景技术Background technique
液晶显示器(LCD)在显示图像时,是藉由调整伽玛值(Gamma)来改善图像的显示效果。伽玛值是影响图像中间值的色调或中间层次的灰度。藉由调整显示器的伽玛值可以改变图像特定灰阶的亮度值,以改善显示效果。当在调整显示器的伽玛值,若调高伽玛值,则显示对应灰阶的图像将会变亮,反之,则显示对应灰阶的图像将会变暗,如此一来,即可使显示器的输出图像具有逼真的显示效果。When a liquid crystal display (LCD) displays an image, it improves the display effect of the image by adjusting the gamma value (Gamma). Gamma is the tonal or intermediate level of gray that affects the mid-value of an image. By adjusting the gamma value of the display, the brightness value of a specific gray scale of the image can be changed to improve the display effect. When adjusting the gamma value of the monitor, if the gamma value is increased, the image displayed in the corresponding gray scale will become brighter, otherwise, the image displayed in the corresponding gray scale will become darker. The output image has a realistic display effect.
图1是显示传统液晶显示器的图像信号处理系统。显示内存10是用以储存供液晶显示器显示的数字图像信号。由于一个液晶显示面板的像素位置与分辨率在制造完成后就已经固定,但是影音装置输出的分辨率却是多元的,当液晶显示面板必须接收不同分辨率的影音信号,就要经过缩放处理才能适合一个屏幕的大小,所以信号需要经过缩放控制器进行缩放处理。因此,显示内存10所输出的信号经由缩放控制器(scaler)122根据液晶显示面板18的尺寸而调整数字图像信号的参数,使得所显示的图像对应于液晶显示面板18的图像尺寸。FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an image signal processing system of a conventional liquid crystal display. The display memory 10 is used to store digital image signals for display by the liquid crystal display. Since the pixel position and resolution of a liquid crystal display panel are fixed after the manufacture is completed, but the resolution output by the audio-visual device is multiple, when the liquid crystal display panel must receive audio-visual signals of different resolutions, it must be scaled to achieve It is suitable for the size of a screen, so the signal needs to be scaled by the scaling controller. Therefore, the signal output from the display memory 10 adjusts the parameters of the digital image signal according to the size of the
在此,传统技术设计一图像伽玛值(gamma)调整电路120A以调整数字图像信号所对应的显示数据亮度。美国专利编号5710594揭露一种数字图像伽玛值调整方法与装置。Here, the conventional technology designs an image gamma value (gamma) adjustment circuit 120A to adjust the brightness of the display data corresponding to the digital image signal. US Patent No. 5710594 discloses a method and device for adjusting the gamma value of a digital image.
如图1所示,传统技术的缩放控制器122与图像伽玛值调整电路120A是同时设置于第一电路板12。第一电路板12上更具有屏幕状态显示器124(onscreen display,OSD)以及微控制器126(micro control unit,MCU)。屏幕状态显示器124用以将调节液晶显示器的特定参数时的状态信息显示于液晶显示器,包括调整屏幕显示亮度、对比、以及垂直水平位置的等参数。微控制器126用以执行图像处理的动作,包括处理图像编码或逐行扫描功能(de-interlacer)的指令或者是负责OSD外观及字型转换的协调功能。在此,第一电路板12所设置的电路是用以执行PC主机端与液晶显示面板模块100之间的沟通与协调动作。As shown in FIG. 1 , the conventional zoom controller 122 and the image gamma adjustment circuit 120A are disposed on the first circuit board 12 at the same time. The first circuit board 12 further has an onscreen display 124 (onscreen display, OSD) and a microcontroller 126 (micro control unit, MCU). The screen status display 124 is used to display status information on the LCD when adjusting certain parameters of the LCD, including parameters such as adjusting screen display brightness, contrast, and vertical and horizontal positions. The micro-controller 126 is used to perform image processing actions, including processing image encoding or de-interlacer instructions, or coordination functions responsible for OSD appearance and font conversion. Here, the circuit provided on the first circuit board 12 is used to execute the communication and coordination between the PC host and the liquid crystal display panel module 100 .
接下来,由第一电路板12所输出的图像信号是输入至液晶显示面板模块100。液晶显示面板模块100包括液晶显示面板驱动电路16、液晶显示面板18、以及用以设置时序控制器142的第二电路板14。时序控制器142是用以控制液晶显示面板驱动电路16以决定液晶显示面板18内部显示单元的显示顺序与时机。Next, the image signal output by the first circuit board 12 is input to the LCD panel module 100 . The liquid crystal display panel module 100 includes a liquid crystal display
第二电路板14为液晶显示面板模块100内部的电路板,其耦接于液晶显示面板驱动电路16以及液晶显示面板模块100外的第一电路板12之间,具有一图像伽玛值调整电路120B,以调整第二电路板14所接收的图像信号所对应的显示数据亮度。The second circuit board 14 is a circuit board inside the liquid crystal display panel module 100, which is coupled between the liquid crystal display
液晶显示面板驱动电路16包括液晶极性反转电路162、数字-模拟转换电路164、数据电极驱动器166A与栅极电极驱动器166B。液晶极性反转电路162是用以调整液晶显示面板18内部显示单元中的液晶分子的显示极性。数字-模拟转换电路164是用以将液晶显示面板驱动电路16接收自第二电路板14的数字信号转换为模拟的视频信号,以输出至液晶显示面板18对应的数据电极。另外,液晶显示面板驱动电路16尚具有图像伽玛值调整电路120C,以用供应至液晶显示面板18的信号所对应的显示数据亮度。The liquid crystal display
图2是显示传统液晶显示面板驱动电路16中的数据电极驱动器166A、栅极电极驱动器166B以及图像伽玛值调整电路120C与液晶显示面板18的架构图。液晶显示面板18上是由纵横交错的数据电极(D1、D2、…)以与门极电极(G1、G2、…)交织而成,每一组交错的数据电极(D1、D2、…)和栅极电极(G1、G2、…)可以用来控制一个显示单元(例如150)。各显示单元的等效电路主要包括控制数据进入用的薄膜晶体管(Q11、Q12、Q21、Q22….)以及储存电容(C11、C12、C21、C22、…)。薄膜晶体管的栅极和漏极分别连接栅极电极和数据电极,通过栅极电极上的扫描信号,可以导通或关闭同一列(亦即同一扫描线)上的所有薄膜晶体管,藉以控制数据电极上的视频信号是否可以写入到对应的显示单元中。FIG. 2 is a structural diagram showing the
另外,栅极电极驱动器166B是根据既定的扫描顺序,送出各栅极电极上的扫描信号。当某一栅极电极上载有扫描信号时,会使得同一列上或同一扫描在线所有显示单元内的薄膜晶体管呈导通状态。当某一扫描线被选择时,数据电极驱动器166A根据待显示的图像数据,经由数据电极送出对应的视频信号到该列的显示单元上。当栅极电极驱动器166B完成一次所有n列扫描在线的扫描动作后,即表示完成单一帧(frame)的显示动作。因此,重复扫描各扫描线并且送出视频信号,便可以达到连续显示图像的目的。In addition, the
然而,传统技术分别在设置缩放控制器122的第一电路板12、液晶显示面板模块100中设置时序控制器142的第二电路板14、以及液晶显示面板模块100的驱动电路16或液晶显示面板18中,设置执行图像伽玛值调整的电路。此举不但导致浪费空间以及重复电路所衍生的成本,更因为各图像伽玛值调整电路的调整皆会影响图像伽玛值调整的结果而增加图像伽玛值调整的困难度。However, in the conventional technology, the first circuit board 12 provided with the scaling controller 122, the second circuit board 14 provided with the timing controller 142 in the liquid crystal display panel module 100, and the

第一实施例first embodiment
图3是显示根据本发明第一实施例所述的液晶显示器的图像信号处理系统。显示内存20是用以储存供液晶显示器显示的数字图像信号。由于一个液晶显示面板的像素位置与分辨率在制造完成后就已经固定,但是影音装置输出的分辨率却是多元的,当液晶显示面板必须接收不同分辨率的影音信号,就要经过缩放处理才能适合一个屏幕的大小。因此,显示内存20所输出的信号经由缩放控制器(scaler)222根据液晶显示面板28的尺寸而调整数字图像信号的参数,使得所显示的图像对应于液晶显示面板28的图像尺寸。FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an image signal processing system of a liquid crystal display according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The
图像伽玛值(gamma)调整电路25是用以调整数字图像信号所对应的显示数据亮度,其与缩放控制器222与同时设置于第一电路板22。另外,第一电路板22上更具有屏幕状态显示器224(on screen display,OSD),或视需要设置微控制器226(micro control unit,MCU)。屏幕状态显示器224将调节液晶显示器的特定参数时的状态信息显示于液晶显示器,包括调整屏幕显示亮度、对比、以及垂直水平位置的等参数。微控制器226执行图像处理的动作,包括处理图像编码或逐行扫描功能(de-interlacer)的指令,或者是负责OSD外观及字型转换的协调功能。在此,第一电路板22所设置的电路主要是用以执行主机端与液晶显示面板模块200之间的沟通与协调动作。The image
接下来,由第一电路板22所输出的图像信号是输入至液晶显示面板模块200。液晶显示面板模块200包括液晶显示面板驱动电路26以及液晶显示面板28。Next, the image signal output by the first circuit board 22 is input to the
液晶显示面板驱动电路26包括液晶极性反转电路262、数字-模拟转换电路264、数据电极驱动器266A与栅极电极驱动器266B。液晶极性反转电路262是用以调整液晶显示面板28内部显示单元中的液晶分子的显示极性。数字-模拟转换电路264是用以将液晶显示面板驱动电路26输出至液晶显示面板28对应数据电极的信号转换为模拟视频信号。The liquid crystal display
图4是显示液晶显示面板驱动电路26中的数据电极驱动器266A以与门极电极驱动器266B与液晶显示面板28的架构图。液晶显示面板18上是由纵横交错的数据电极(D1、D2、…)以与门极电极(G1、G2、…)交织而成,每一组交错的数据电极(D1、D2、…)和栅极电极(G1、G2、…)可以用来控制一个显示单元(例如250)。各显示单元的等效电路主要包括控制数据进入用的薄膜晶体管(Q11、Q12、Q21、Q22、…)以及储存电容(C11、C12、C21、C22、…)。薄膜晶体管的栅极和漏极分别连接栅极电极和数据电极,通过栅极电极上的扫描信号,可以导通或关闭同一列(亦即同一扫描线)上的所有薄膜晶体管,藉以控制数据电极上的视频信号是否可以写入到对应的显示单元中。FIG. 4 is a structural diagram showing the
另外,栅极电极驱动器266B是根据既定的扫描顺序,送出各栅极电极上的扫描信号。当某一栅极电极上载有扫描信号时,会使得同一列上或同一扫描在线所有显示单元内的薄膜晶体管呈导通状态。当某一扫描线被选择时,数据电极驱动器266A根据待显示的图像数据,经由数据电极送出对应的视频信号到该列的显示单元上。当栅极电极驱动器266B完成一次所有n列扫描在线的扫描动作后,即表示完成单一帧(frame)的显示动作。因此,重复扫描各扫描线并且送出视频信号,便可以达到连续显示图像的目的。In addition, the
根据本发明第一实施例,使用单一图像伽玛值调整电路25即可用来调整整个液晶显示器的图像信号处理系统图像的伽玛值。由于图像伽玛值调整电路25是位于液晶显示面板模块200外部的第一电路板22,因此可直接动态调整图像伽玛值调整电路25的设定,而液晶显示面板模块200内,无须再另行增加调整图像伽玛值的设计,因此有效改善传统技术因为重复设计图像伽玛值调整电路25而造成成本以及空间浪费的问题,再者,根据本发明第一实施例所述的数字图像信号处理装置,更可简化图像伽玛值调整程序,避免多个图像伽玛值调整电路之间互相影响伽玛值调整结果的缺点。According to the first embodiment of the present invention, a single image gamma

Furthermore, there is a better integration principle for a liquid crystal display panel of a specific size. For example, for a small-sized liquid crystal display panel, due to its relatively low resolution, it is suitable to integrate an image gamma value adjustment circuit, a timing controller, and a digital-to-analog conversion circuit. For medium and large-sized liquid crystal display panels, because of the relatively high resolution required, it is suitable to integrate the timing controller and image gamma value adjustment circuit with the scaling controller outside the liquid crystal display panel module, and the digital -The analog conversion circuit is preferably integrated with the liquid crystal display panel driving circuit of the liquid crystal display panel module.
