Description

Liquid crystal drive system and method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of driving method and drive system of liquid crystal panel, particularly a kind of apply pulse pattern (impulse type) drives the method and system of liquid crystal panel.
Background technology
The main advantage of LCD is to reach easily high display resolution and display slimming, therefore widely be used in mobile computer in, recently along with the lasting exploitation of large size panel, LCD also becomes the main flow of desktop PC display.
Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the parent map of LCD 10.Wherein, liquid crystal panel 12 has a plurality of pixels (pixel) 121, utilizes each pixel 121 liquid crystal molecule is wherein applied a specific driving voltage, can change the anglec of rotation of liquid crystal molecule.Liquid crystal molecule has the function of light valve (lightvalve), utilizes the control liquid crystal molecule anglec of rotation, then the transmissivity of the light that provided of controlling back light source 14.Thus, the light that the backlight 14 of liquid crystal panel 12 belows is provided can be because of different transmissivities in the different pixel 121 of liquid crystal panel 12, and present different gray scales, and then interweave and form " picture " watched for the user.
Generally speaking, in computing machine (as above-mentioned mobile computer and desktop PC), the demonstration of picture is more with the situation of " static state " substantially.So-called " static state " is meant that (or claim frame: current frame) all show identical gray scale with a previous picture (previous frame), wherein, current picture is connected in previous picture to a pixel 121 at a current picture.For example, utilize computing machine to carry out under the situation of documentor, each pixel 121 in the picture is in the majority with the situation of static state, and just the pairing pixel 121 of the literal of being keyed in then belongs to " dynamically ".So-called " dynamically ", be meant that a pixel 121 shows gray scale inequality at current picture and previous picture.For example, the picture of televisor shows that situation is in the majority with " dynamically ", perhaps, when utilizing computing machine to come movie or animation, also is " dynamically " situation in the majority.
The display characteristic of LCD 10 is suitable for the situation of " static state ".The image control of LCD 10 is to utilize the liquid crystal molecule of liquid crystal panel 12 is bestowed specific driving voltage.Typical liquid crystal drive voltage can be with reference to Fig. 2 A, and it is in an image time (frame time), keeps and fixes a magnitude of voltage, and this mode belongs to " continuous-mode (hold type) ".With the LCD 10 that " continuous-mode " drives, normally utilize a storage capacitors to remember the magnitude of voltage of living driving voltage, import this storage capacitors once more until the driving voltage of next picture.
Shown in Fig. 2 A, in an image time, to keep under the situation of same magnitude of voltage, the brightness of human eye perceives is proportional to the integration of brightness to the time.Therefore, the LCD 10 that drives with " continuous-mode " is when showing " dynamically " picture, because therefore the principle that human eye vision persists has the phenomenon generation of smear easily.Human eye when observing next picture, feels that easily the gray scale of a last picture still exists easily.
Please refer to Fig. 2 B, show the driving voltage of pulse mode.With respect to " continuous-mode ", the type of drive that another kind is applied to the image demonstration is " pulse mode (impulse type) "." pulse mode " is common in traditional televisor or cathode ray tube (CRT) display, because the sweep velocity of televisor or CRT monitor electron beam wherein is very fast, therefore in a picture, only utilize pulse once usually, and cooperate the intensity of electron beam to control its display brightness.The brightness that human eye is discovered is the integrated value of brightness to the time, and therefore the brightness integrated value is identical in image time, and then the person of looking that human eye is distinguished is same gray scale.Anticipate promptly, if identical, then the viewed grey scale change situation of human eye will be the same with the brightness integrated value of Fig. 2 B in same image time for Fig. 2 A.
Yet different is that shown in Fig. 2 B, under " pulse mode ", in an image time, owing to the high sweep velocity of electron beam, so brightness is the initial stage that occurs in each image time.Thus, between picture and picture, particularly when showing " dynamically " picture, aforesaid smear phenomenon is difficult for producing.This is that picture and picture can be separated and come because under " pulse mode ", and the brightness of previous picture is difficult for influencing because of persistence of vision the observation of the present picture of human eye.
" pulse mode " is mainly used in televisor or the CRT monitor, liquid crystal display applications " pulse mode " also arranged at present to drive liquid crystal molecule, mainly is to be applied in the LCD TV product." pulse mode " though LCD can improve the shortcoming of face in its in " dynamically " daytime, yet, in the performance of " static state " picture, have the shortcoming of easy flicker, therefore be difficult for being applied in the required display of computing machine.The shortcoming of this flicker also is the common problem of conventional television or CRT monitor.
Comprehensive the above, how to make LCD all can take into account with " static state " two kinds of situations in " dynamically ", promptly when " static state " picture, do not produce flicker, and smear does not appear when " dynamically " picture, and make LCD can be applicable to the display of computing machine and can be applicable to the LCD TV product simultaneously, be the primary developing direction of current techniques.

Embodiment
The present invention is directed to known LCD and can't take into account two kinds of different situations of " dynamically " and " static state " between picture and picture, and intend providing a perfect solution.
Please refer to Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B.Liquid crystal panel 12 can show a plurality of pictures, and for example, liquid crystal panel 12 shows after the previous picture 31, shows a current picture 32, is connected in previous picture 31.It should be noted that previous picture in the literary composition and current picture can be represented any two pictures of adjacency, are not singly to refer in specific picture because means of the present invention are relevant with two pictures of adjacency.
The content of a plurality of pictures that liquid crystal panel 12 is shown depends on a picture signal 21.Picture signal 21 may be from display card or other signal source of VCD player (DVD or VCD), computing machine.Picture signal 21 includes the predetermined grey scale signal (for example label 211 and 212) of above-mentioned a plurality of picture a plurality of pixels wherein.
Shown in Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B, one first predetermined grey scale signal 211 decision pixels 121 are formerly during picture 31, the gray-scale displayed of answering.One second predetermined grey scale signal 212 decision pixels 121 when current picture 32, the gray-scale displayed of answering.
The driving method of giving liquid crystal panel 12 provided by the present invention mainly comprises the following steps:
A) relatively whether the second predetermined grey scale signal 212 is equal to the first predetermined grey scale signal 211.
B-1) if the two identical (i.e. the situation of " static state "), then when current picture 32, (hold type) drives pixel 121 with a continuous-mode;
B-2) if the two difference (i.e. the situation of " dynamically "), then when current picture 32, (impulse type) drives pixel 121 with a pulse mode.
Above-mentioned " pulse mode " is in the image time (frame time) at current picture 32, to utilize a plurality of pulse signals so that pixel 121 liquid crystal molecule wherein rotates constantly, so that the brightness of pixel 121 mainly is distributed in the initial stage of this image time.Above-mentioned " continuous-mode " is in an image time of current picture 32, makes liquid crystal molecule keep a predetermined anglec of rotation, so that the brightness of pixel 121 distributes in this image time fifty-fifty.
Please refer to Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B with further understanding the present invention.Fig. 4 A shows above-mentioned picture signal 21, wherein, and the different gray scale of the different signal value representative of height (for example, above-mentioned the first predetermined grey scale signal 211 be scheduled to grey scale signal 212) with second.Fig. 4 B shows a drive signal 23, and its signal value is also represented different gray scales.Drive signal 23 is in order to drive liquid crystal panel 12 pixel 121 wherein.In driving method provided by the present invention, be according to picture signal 21 to produce drive signal 23, therefore need at first detect for picture signal 21.Utilize the present invention, liquid crystal panel 12 can have the advantage of taking into account " dynamically " and " static state " two kinds of situations.
Main spirit of the present invention is: under the situation of " static state ", use " continuous-mode " to drive, and in the next use of the situation of " dynamically " " pulse mode ".
The situation of " static state " for example the screen D shown in Fig. 4 A to picture E, by picture signal 21, when current picture (Fig. 3 A label 32) when being picture E, because its grey scale signal (i.e. second grey scale signal 212) is identical with the grey scale signal (i.e. first grey scale signal 211) of previous picture (Fig. 3 B label 212, Fig. 4 A screen D).Therefore, when picture E, drive with continuous-mode (hold type).
Shown in Fig. 4 B, in the image time of picture E, 23 suppliers of drive signal are a single signal value, and have continued an image time, are the type of drive of " continuous-mode " shown in Fig. 2 A.What deserves to be mentioned is, though finally offer the magnitude of voltage that should be of liquid crystal molecule, the drive signal 23 of indication is not limited to the form of voltage among the present invention, also can be the current signal in the process.
The situation of " dynamically " for example the picture A shown in Fig. 4 A to picture B, by picture signal 21, when current picture (Fig. 3 A label 32) when being picture B, because grey scale signal (the i.e. first grey scale signal 211) difference of its grey scale signal (i.e. second grey scale signal 212) and previous picture (Fig. 3 B label 212, Fig. 4 A picture A).Therefore, picture B is one " dynamically " picture, drives with pulse mode (impulse type) in the present invention, utilizes a plurality of pulse signals (as Fig. 4 B label 231 and 232), so that pixel 121 presents the effect that pulse mode drives.
Shown in Fig. 4 B, in the image time of picture B, 23 suppliers of drive signal divide into two stages (time interval T1 and T2), have two kinds of different signal values, and it is respectively first pulse signal 231 and second pulse signal 232.Utilize above-mentioned type of drive, then the reaction of liquid crystal molecule is shown in Fig. 4 C, and Fig. 4 C is corresponding to the pixel of Fig. 4 B (Fig. 3 B label 121) brightness change curve.The anglec of rotation of liquid crystal molecule is depended in the brightness of pixel 121, yet the reaction time of liquid crystal molecule has its physical restriction, can change in real time unlike electric signal, therefore in time interval T1 and T2, liquid crystal molecule has little time to react in real time the anglec of rotation that conforms to drive signal 23 to rotate to, but, little by little rotate to the anglec of rotation that conforms to first pulse signal 231 or second pulse signal 232 to present the form of curve.Therefore, when driving with pulse mode, the brightness of pixel 121 presents the variation situation of Fig. 4 C under microcosmic, please refer to picture B or picture F among Fig. 4 C.
The present invention utilizes " pulse mode " under the situation of " dynamically ", utilizes a plurality of pulse signals (as label 231 and 232), and makes brightness concentrate on the initial stage of image time.Thus, the display effect of reality of the present invention then, be in close proximity to " pulse mode " type of drive (as Fig. 2 B) of known conventional television or cathode ray tube (CRT) display, can improve the smear shortcoming of known LCD when " dynamically " picture effectively.
The picture B that please refer to Fig. 4 A to Fig. 4 C is to picture C.As the requirement of the picture signal 21 of Fig. 4 A, picture B and picture C show same gray scale.Shown in Fig. 4 B, after drive signal 23 executes the driving of " pulse mode " at picture C, then drive picture C with " continuous-mode ".Yet what deserves to be mentioned is, shown in Fig. 4 C, because the physical characteristics of liquid crystal molecule at the initial stage of picture C, needs one period reaction time could arrive desired brightness.
Though picture B and picture C one drive with " pulse mode ", another person drives with " continuous-mode ", yet the two all shows identical gray scale (as the requirement of the picture signal 21 of Fig. 4 A), therefore, in Fig. 4 C, the brightness integration of time interval T1 to T2 is equal to the brightness integration of time interval T3 to T4.In other words, for human eye, watching picture B and picture C can be same gray scale.In this case, in the present invention, when being under the situation of same " numerical value " in the aforementioned second predetermined gray scale (it is about current picture), no matter a pixel is to drive with pulse mode or continuous-mode, then the brightness of this pixel is in the image time of current picture, and the brightness integrated value is identical.
Smear shortcoming when utilizing the accessible advantage of the present invention to be to avoid " dynamically " picture, and when the screen D of follow-up " static state " and picture E drives with " continuous-mode " again, then can avoid the flicker problem of " static state " picture.
When carrying out the driving of " pulse mode ", according to the grey scale change situation of previous picture 31, to produce suitable a plurality of pulse signals to current picture 32.For example first pulse signal 231 of Fig. 4 B and second pulse signal 232.The decision of the signal value of pulse signal is operated with various signal value actual pixels 121, and the brightness integration (as Fig. 4 C) of pixel 121 is detected, to ask for optimal signal value.And, implement to go up and can set up a pulse data signal table so that the grey scale change situation of adjacent two pictures of foundation, and inquire the signal value of a plurality of pulse signals that should provide.
