[0004] However, liquid crystal molecules have such a characteristic that when the direction of the electric field applied to both sides of the liquid crystal molecules remains unchanged for a long time, the physical properties of the liquid crystal molecules are destroyed, that is, the corresponding changes in the electric field can no longer be made accordingly. Turn. Therefore, the industry generally applies an inversion driving method to a liquid crystal display, that is, changing the direction and direction of an electric field applied to both sides of the liquid crystal layer at regular intervals, so that liquid crystal molecules are alternately deflected in opposite directions to prevent physical properties thereof. been destroyed. Currently, liquid crystal display inversion driving methods include Frame Inversion, Line/Row Inversion, Column Inversion, and Dot Inversion.

During the vacant period, the scan driving circuit 11 can apply the same scan voltage signal to the plurality of scan lines 13, wherein the scan voltage signal can be a continuous square wave composed of a plurality of high voltage pulses; the data driving circuit 12 can be repeated. Applying a grayscale voltage signal of the first frame to the complex data line 14, the grayscale voltage signal may also be a continuous pulse square wave; the common voltage generating circuit 18 outputs a common voltage signal whose polarity does not change to The plurality of common electrodes 152. Specifically, the common voltage signal is fixed during the vacant period, and may be a DC voltage signal, and the preferred range is that the common voltage signal is in a display period (ie, one frame time, such as the first frame time) 098144346 Form No. A0101 Page 9 of 22 0982075804-0 [(8) 19] The negative amplitude and positive amplitude of 201123154, such as a 3 V to 3 V. Preferably, the DC voltage signal is equal to the middle value of the positive amplitude value and the negative amplitude value, that is, the DC voltage signal preferably has a value of 0 V and is a ground voltage. [0020] The vacant period of the liquid crystal display 1 according to the specific structure of the circuit and the components of the liquid crystal display 1, the frame time is generally 16.6ms, the vacant for a liquid crystal display of 240*320 resolution The time period can be between 3 and 4 ms. [0021] When the data driving circuit 12 has finished preparing to display the next frame picture, the liquid crystal display 1 will enter the next frame time and continuously repeat all the actions and steps of the previous frame time and the previous vacant time period. As shown in FIG. 2, the liquid crystal display 1 enters a second frame time, and in the second frame time, each part of the liquid crystal display 1 repeats all the actions and steps in the first frame time to complete the first After the second frame is displayed, the liquid crystal display 1 enters a vacant time period and repeats all the actions and steps in the previous vacant time period, and details are not described herein. [0022] Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a comparison diagram of the noise test results of the liquid crystal display 1 shown in FIG. 1 and the prior art liquid crystal display. The environmental requirements of the noise test are as follows: when the frequency of the sound in the environment (ie, the noise in the environment) is below 1 kHz, the intensity of the sound in the environment is not higher than 10 dB; when the frequency of the sound in the environment is above 1 kHz, The intensity of the sound in this environment is not higher than 5 dB. In Fig. 3, the abscissa indicates the frequency of the sound, the unit is kHz; the ordinate indicates the frequency of the sound, the unit is dB; the circle point represents the noise test result of the prior art liquid crystal display; the square point represents the noise test of the liquid crystal display 1 of the present invention. result. 098144346 Form No. A0101 Page 10 / Total 22 Page 0992075804-0 201123154 [0023] [0025] [0026] By observing FIG. 3, it can be seen that the sound intensity of the prior art liquid crystal display at 1 kHz is about 8 dB. The liquid crystal display of the invention! The sound intensity of the frequency is only 6dB when the heart is at the heart; the sound intensity of the prior art liquid crystal display frequency is about UdB at 3kHz, and the sound intensity of the liquid crystal display 1 of the present invention is about 10dB at 3kHz; the prior art liquid crystal display The sound intensity at a frequency of 5 kHz is approximately i 〇 dB, and the sound intensity of the liquid crystal display 1 of the present invention at 5 kHz is only 4 dB.

Since the vacant period is shorter than the frame time of one frame, that is, the display period is shorter, the human eye has no way of perceiving the change of the screen of the liquid crystal display 1 during the vacant period, 098144346 Form No. A0101 Page 11 of 22 Page 0982075804-0 201123154 Therefore, regardless of the change of the scanning voltage signal and the gray scale voltage signal during the vacant period, the screen display effect of the liquid crystal display 1 is not actually affected. Please refer to FIG. 4, which is a waveform diagram of a common voltage signal of a modified embodiment of the liquid crystal display of the present invention. The main difference between the modified embodiment and the liquid crystal display 1 of the preferred embodiment is that the polarity of the common voltage is constant during the vacant period, and is positive (or negative), but the common voltage can be changed. Preferably, it varies within a range of 0V and a positive amplitude of the common voltage signal of the display period (or within a range of negative amplitude values). [0028] In the variant embodiment, the polarity of the common voltage is 'unchanged, and the resonance phenomenon of the polarity reversal of the common voltage signal may be broken to some extent, thereby effectively improving the noise generated by the common voltage. 5 is a waveform diagram of a common voltage signal of another modified embodiment of the liquid crystal display of the present invention. The main difference between the modified embodiment and the liquid crystal display 1 of the preferred embodiment is that the polarity of the common voltage changes during the vacant period, but the frequency is lower than the common voltage signal of the display period, for example:
