Embodiment
Some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail as follows.Yet except describing in detail, the present invention can also implement widely in other embodiments, and scope of the present invention do not limit by the following example, and with after claim be as the criterion.
Fig. 3 shows the LCD Organization Chart that meets one embodiment of the invention.As shown in the figure, signal generation device 110, gray scale reference voltages generation device 120, direct-current voltage conversion device 130, liquid crystal panel 140, multi-stage data drive unit and multilevel scanning drive unit 150 have wherein been comprised.
In the present embodiment, gray scale reference voltages generation device 120 is given this multi-stage data drive unit in order to produce gray scale reference voltages equally, adjusts as the GTG tone of image on display.Direct-current voltage conversion device 130 is in order to provide voltage to signal generation device 110, gray scale reference voltages generation device 120, multi-stage data drive unit and multilevel scanning drive unit 150.Signal generation device 110 is in order to clocking, picture output signal and enabling signal.The multi-stage data drive unit, be first order data driven unit 160, second level data driven unit 161, n-1 level data drive unit 162 from left to right in regular turn, up to the most right-hand n level data drive unit 163, mainly in order to the store images data, and output image data to liquid crystal panel 140 shows.Multilevel scanning drive unit 150 is in order to drive liquid crystal panel 140, to accept to come from the view data of data driven unit.Liquid crystal panel 140 is then in order to display image data.
Conventional liquid crystal Organization Chart in Fig. 1, signal generation device 110 inside in the present embodiment have flip flop equipment (not shown), in order to when detecting the negative edge of picture output signal, temporarily stop clock signal and export first order data driven unit 160 to; And when the positive edge of enabling signal is detected, shifts to an earlier date a plurality of clock period and begin to export clock signal to first order data driven unit 160.In the present invention, utilize picture output signal as clock stop signal, and by detecting the output that its negative edge suspends clock signal; And utilize enabling signal as clock enable signal, and begin the output of clock signal by detecting its positive edge, will in after content in be described further.
In addition, framework compared to conventional liquid crystal, first order data driven unit 160, the second level data driven unit 161 of the embodiment of the invention in Fig. 3 up to the most right-hand n level data drive unit 163, is to connect mutually with serial connection (cascade) framework.Therefore, no matter be clock signal, picture output signal and the enabling signal of being exported by signal generation device 110, the voltage that direct-current voltage conversion device 130 is provided, the gray scale reference voltages that gray scale reference voltages generation device 120 is produced, all be to be orderly sent to first order data driven unit 160, second level data driven unit 161 is up to the most right-hand n level data drive unit 163.That is to say, every voltage and signal that first order data driven unit 160 is exported, can input to second level data driven unit 161, and every voltage and signal that second level data driven unit 161 is exported, input to the data driven unit of next stage again, till n level data drive unit 163.Save power consumption relevant for how the present invention avoids the unnecessary operations of data driven units at different levels, will in following content, explain by matching timing figure.
Fig. 4 shows the sequential chart of LCD in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in the figure, clock stop signal, first order clock enable signal, second level clock enable signal, tertiary clock enabling signal, n level clock enable signal, first order clock signal, second level clock signal, tertiary clock signal and n level clock signal have wherein been comprised.
Clock stop signal among the present invention, be picture output signal, mainly be to show in order to control data driven unit while output image data to liquid crystal panel at different levels, in the present invention owing to pass through the negative edge of detected image output signal, with the output of time-out clock signal, so the called after clock stop signal.Clock enable signals at different levels among the present invention, being enabling signal, mainly is to begin the store images data in order to start corresponding a certain level data drive unit, in the present invention because by detecting the positive edge of enabling signal, with the output of beginning clock signal, so the called after clock enable signal.
Explain hereinafter with reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4.At first, the clock stop signal (Fig. 4) that is produced when signal generation device 110 (Fig. 3), its negative edge is when time t1, flip flop equipment by signal generation device 110 inside detects, so clock signal stops first order clock signal (in order to offer first order data driven unit 160) and is maintained at logic-high state after process a plurality of clock period (for example 10 clock period) when time t3.Simultaneously, at time t1 during through the time t2 of (for example 7 clock period) after a plurality of clock period, stop second level clock signal (in order to offer second level data driven unit 161), n-1 level clock signal (in order to offer n-1 level data drive unit 162), up to n level clock signal (in order to offer n level data drive unit 163) and be maintained at logic-high state.
Then, the first order clock enable signal that is produced when signal generation device 110 just t5 is detected because of the time time, first order clock signal can be shifted to an earlier date a plurality of clock period (for example 5 clock period), when time t4, begin the running of recovered clock signal, therefore, first order data driven unit just can receive normal clock signal in time t4, when time t5 owing to receive first order clock enable signal (enabling signal), so can begin the store images data.
As shown in the figure, when time t5, because remaining second level clock signal, n-1 level clock signal, all be maintained at logic high up to n level clock signal, so corresponding second level data driven unit 161, the n-1 level data drive unit 162 that receives these clock signals can both be avoided causing power consumption because of the clock signal unnecessary operations up to n level data drive unit 163.
In like manner, when second level clock enable signal just t7 is detected because of the time time, second level clock signal can be shifted to an earlier date a plurality of clock period (for example 5 clock period), when time t6, begin the running of recovered clock signal, therefore, second level data driven unit just can receive normal clock signal in time t6, when time t7 owing to receive second level clock enable signal (enabling signal), so can begin the store images data.
By above explanation as can be known, data driven unit among the present invention, when some data driven units during in the store images data, remaining data driven unit can't receive normal clock signal, therefore can not cause non-essential clock operation and consumed power, reach the effect of saving power supply.
The above is preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not in order to limit the present invention; All other do not break away from the equivalence of being finished under the disclosed spirit and changes or modification, all should be included in the described claim scope.
