Please refer to Fig. 4, Fig. 4 shows panel configuration synoptic diagram of the present invention.Panel 400 has an active-matrix zone 401, one scan driver 402, a data driver 403 at least, reaches a circuit controller 404.Panel 400 can be any panel, for example is the LCD panel; Active-matrix zone 401 has a plurality of pixel 401a, and pixel 401a has a plurality of storage capacitors; Scanner driver 402 couples with sweep trace (scan line) SL and circuit controller 404, and scanner driver 402 is in order to activate the pixel in the active-matrix zone 401 in order; Data driver 403, couples with data line (data line) DL and pixel 401a to corresponding pixel 401a in order to outputting data signals; Circuit controller 404 is connected with pixel 401a with control line CL, and circuit controller 404 can decide the activation quantity of the storage capacitors among the pixel 401a according to the transmission frequency of sweep trace SL.
Please also refer to Fig. 5 a, Fig. 5 b and Fig. 6 a~6b, Fig. 5 a is the structure that shows the pixel 401a with multiple storage capacitors shown in Figure 4, and Fig. 5 b is an embodiment who shows pixel structure of the present invention, and Fig. 6 a is the V shown in the displayed map 5b DC2With V LC2Clock pulse graph of a relation under general frequency; Fig. 6 b is the V shown in the displayed map 5b DC2With V LC2Clock pulse graph of a relation under lower frequency.
Please refer to Fig. 5 a, the pixel 401a with multiple storage capacitors includes a display unit 411 and an electric capacity feedway 412a.Wherein, display unit 411 comprises a transistor T 21, a liquid crystal display capacitor C LC-21, an and storage capacitors C ST-21, transistor T 21And between the circuit controller 404 with a control line CL 1Couple.Electric capacity feedway 412a comprises at least one storage capacitors C ST-22To C ST-N, each storage capacitors couples an on-off element, and on-off element for example is a transistor T 22To T N, transistor T 22To T NBetween be one another in series, and respectively via control line CL 2To CL NCouple with circuit controller 404.
Electric capacity feedway 412a can be according to the driving frequency of display unit 411, optionally activating transistor T 22To T N, so that storage capacitors C ST-22To C ST-NBe connected in parallel to the storage capacitors C of display unit 411 ST-21When driving frequency was low more, the on-off element that is activated among the electric capacity feedway 412a was many more, by and storage capacitors also many more, the integral capacitor storage capacity of pixel 401a will be big more.
Be the invention that embodiment is described in detail this case below with the described pixel of Fig. 5 b with multiple storage capacitors.
At first, provide a pixel 401a, pixel 401a includes a display unit 411 and an electric capacity feedway 412b; Wherein, display unit 411 comprises a transistor T 21, a liquid crystal display capacitor C LC-21, an and storage capacitors C ST-21Electric capacity feedway 412b comprises a transistor T 32An and storage capacitors C ST-32Transistor T 21And between the circuit controller 404 with a control line CL 1Couple, and transistor T 32And between circuit controller 404 with a control line CL 2Couple.
Under general driving frequency, for example be 60Hz, when the one scan electrode of scanner driver 402 enters selected state, by control line CL 1The display unit that couples with it 411 can conductings, and just display unit 411 can be applied in an accurate V of data that represent monochrome information DC2And shinny, at this moment, liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Meeting is the accurate position of data V therewith DC2Unanimity, and storage capacitors C ST-21Can be recharged.When the scan electrode of this scanner driver 402 entered nonselection mode, display unit 411 meetings that couple with it were by electrical isolation, and the liquid crystal display capacitor C LC-21Then by the storage capacitors C of previous charging ST-21Supply is with stabilizing liquid crystal display voltage V LC2, and make display unit 411 maintain shinny state.
In general driving frequency following time, circuit controller 404 only makes display unit 411 activate, and electric capacity feedway 412b is activated, and not effect of the electric capacity feedway 412b of this moment can be represented shown in Fig. 7 a.
When display unit 411 during at nonselection mode, though liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Can be by storage capacitors C ST-21Stably keep, but still a little power loss can be arranged because of the cause of pixel itself or peripheral element, so before charging next time, liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Current potential △ V can descend 2
Charge frequency under the general driving frequency is very fast, liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Deduct decline current potential △ V from noble potential 2Get back to V LC2The process of current potential be difficult for being found by the user; Yet under battery saving modes such as holding state, its driving frequency for example is the following low driving frequency of 40Hz, and the time of each charging room is extended, and makes electric weight continue to run off, and causes liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Can suppression ratio decline current potential △ V before charging next time 2More current potential.Liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Current potential descend manyly more, the voltage variety during charging is just big more, then easy more being discovered by the user and feel film flicker.
Situation for fear of film flicker takes place, under the low frequency driving frequency of standby or battery saving mode, when the one scan electrode of scanner driver 402 enters selected state, by control line CL 1The display unit that couples with it 411 can conductings, and can be applied in an accurate V of data that represent monochrome information DC2And shinny, at this moment, liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Meeting is the accurate position of data V therewith DC2Unanimity, and storage capacitors C ST-21Can be recharged; Simultaneously, circuit controller 404 also can be by control line CL 2Make transistor T 32Open, at this moment, electric capacity feedway 412b is activated and make storage capacitors C ST-32Charging.Thus, the electric weight that stores during the charging of pixel 401a will increase to storage capacitors C ST-21And storage capacitors C ST-32Both sum totals.Because display unit 411 and electric capacity feedway 412b are activated simultaneously, therefore can represent shown in Fig. 7 b.
When the scan electrode of this scanner driver 402 entered nonselection mode, display unit 411 meetings that couple with it were by electrical isolation, and the liquid crystal display capacitor C LC-21Then by the storage capacitors C of previous charging ST-21And storage capacitors C ST-32Both stably supply, with stabilizing liquid crystal display voltage V LC2, and make display unit 411 maintain shinny state.
When display unit 411 during at nonselection mode, though liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Can be by storage capacitors C ST-21And storage capacitors C ST-32Both stably keep, but still a little power loss can be arranged because of the cause of pixel itself or peripheral element, so before charging next time, liquid crystal display voltage V LC2Can decline current potential Δ V 2', current potential Δ V 2' with the decline current potential Δ V of general frequency 2Difference is little.
Though under battery saving modes such as holding state, the time of each charging room can be extended and make electric weight continue to run off, because of pixel 401a has storage capacitors C simultaneously ST-21And storage capacitors C ST-32Cause, the total electric weight of storage is increased, make pixel 401a keep higher voltage before the charging in next time, the voltage variety when making charging reduces, thus, the user will be difficult for discovering the potential change of pixel and can not feel film flicker.
