Description of the Invention: [Technical Field to Which the Invention Is Ascribed] The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and a method of driving the same. [Prior Art] Generally, each of the three colors of R, G, and B of the liquid crystal display device can display 8 bits, i.e., 28 = 256 gray scales, and the liquid crystal display device can display 28 χ 28 χ 28 = 16,777,216 colors. However, since the 8-bit data driving circuit is expensive, in order to reduce the cost, the driving circuit 10 of the current liquid crystal display device adopts a frame rate control circuit (FRC) 12 and a 6-bit data driver circuit (Source Driver) 14 . The function of the 8-bit data driving circuit is realized, as shown in Figure 1. The frame rate control circuit 12 converts the frame displaying the 256-level gray scale into a frame displaying the 64-level gray scale, and the data driving circuit 14 drives the liquid crystal display device to display the screen. The working principle of the frame rate control circuit 12 is as shown in FIG. 2. Let the 256-level grayscale be 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 254, 255, respectively, then the luminance of the 64-level grayscale corresponds to the 0th, 4th, 8th, ..., 248th of the 256 grayscale respectively. The brightness of the 252 gray scale. A frame displaying a 256-level gray scale is converted by the frame rate control circuit 12, and can be replaced by a four-frame that displays a 64-level gray scale, and the four frames are sequentially the first frame and the second frame. Frame, third frame and fourth frame. It can be seen from the figure that if the gray levels of the first, second, third and fourth frames are all the fourth level gray scale, the average brightness of the four frames perceived by the human eye is the 200830252 $4 gray. The luminance of the order; if the gray levels of the first, second, and third frames are the gray level of the fourth level, and the gray level of the fourth frame is the gray level of the eighth level, due to the vision of the human eye The persistence characteristic, the average luminance of the four frames perceived by the human eye is the luminance of the fifth-order grayscale; if the grayscales of the second and fourth frames are the fourth-order grayscale, the first The gray level of the third frame is the gray level of the eighth level, and the average brightness of the four frames perceived by the human eye is the brightness of the sixth level gray level due to the visual persistence characteristic of the human eye; The gray level of a frame is the gray level of the fourth level, and the gray levels of the second, third and fourth frames are all the gray level of the eighth level, and the human eye feels due to the persistence characteristic of the human eye. The average luminance of the four frames is the luminance of the seventh grayscale; if the grayscales of the first, second, third, and fourth frames are the eighth grayscale, the human eye feels The average glow of the four frames The degree is the luminance of the gray level of the eighth level. According to the same principle, by the frame rate control circuit 12, the luminance of the 256-level gray scale can be realized by the luminance of the 64-level gray scale. However, the four frames showing the 64-level gray scale will have a flashing phenomenon when the gray scale changes, and the visible surface of the liquid helium display device will appear as shown in Fig. 3. Let the period of the _ frame be T, and if the gray level of the four frames is the fourth level gray level or the eighth level gray level, the liquid crystal display device displays the blinking period of the pupil surface as τ; The gray scales of the first and third frames are both the gray level of the eighth level, and the gray levels of the second and fourth frames are the gray level of the fourth level, and the liquid crystal display device displays the flash of the surface The period is 2Τ, and the gray level of the right frame of the brothers, the brothers and the brothers is the gray level of the fourth level, and the gray level of the fourth frame is the gray level of the eighth level, biting the first figure. The gray level of the frame is the gray level of the fourth level, and the gray levels of the second, third and fourth frames are all the gray level of the eighth level, and the liquid crystal display device displays the 200830252 blinking period of the front surface as 4T. • Generally, the refresh rate of the liquid crystal display device is 60 ΗΖ, that is, the frame frequency is 60 ΗΖ, and the flashing frequency of the SUb liquid crystal display device is 6 〇ηζ, 3〇ηζ, and 15 HZ. However, since the flickering of the surface of 30 HZ and 15 HZ is easily perceived by the human eye, the liquid crystal display device has a clear flickering phenomenon, and the user feels uncomfortable when viewing the liquid crystal display device to display the kneading surface, which is disadvantageous. For the visual health of the user. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a liquid crystal display which can improve the flashing of the face. It is necessary to provide a driving method for a liquid crystal display device which can improve the flickering of the face. a liquid crystal display device comprising a data driving circuit, a frame: a second control circuit, a poor material distributor and a frame buffer, the frame speed circuit comprising a complex gray scale lookup table, wherein The frame buffer is electrically connected to the data distributor by a crying frame f rate control circuit, and the data distribution data line is electrically connected to the data driving circuit, and the frame buffer is converted into a frame corresponding to the @讯遗a plurality of sub-frames to raise the frame frequency of the == frequency signal, and increase the frame frequency after the connection ^ (4) the frame rate control circuit 'the frame rate control circuit 矣 ^ frame buffer read The video signal 'converts through the gray scale of the complex gray-scale frequency-checking signal, and the data distributor receives the p-white converted money video signal' and transmits the video signal to the 200830252 poor-cause driving circuit.

Changing, the frame rate control circuit outputs the frame frequency of the video signal converted by the gray scale conversion of the first and second gray scales to be 12 〇Ήζ, that is, the frame frequency of the liquid crystal display device is changed. It is 120ΗΖ. And the frame rate control is performed: a frame displaying 256-level gray scale is realized by using two sub-frames of 64-level gray scale, and therefore, the blinking frequency of the display of the liquid crystal display device becomes 12〇ΗΖ and 60ΗΖ. Since the flickering of 120ΗΖ and 60ΗΖ is not easily perceived by the human eye, the problem of flickering of the liquid crystal display device is effectively overcome, and the user does not feel uncomfortable when viewing the liquid crystal display device, and does not Affect the visual health of the user.
