  LVDS介面電路採用極低的電壓擺幅高速差動傳輸資料,具有低功耗、低誤碼率、低串擾及低輻射等特點,因此廣泛運用於對信號完整性、低抖動及共模特性要求較高的系統中,例如運用於平面顯示器的主板及顯示面板之間的資料傳輸。請參見圖1,其為現有的平面顯示器1的主板11及顯示面板12採用LVDS介面電路2傳輸資料的電路示意圖。LVDS介面電路2包含設於主板11上的輸出介面電路21及設於顯示面板12上的輸入介面電路22,其中,輸出介面電路21包含第一連接器111及差分信號發射器112,而輸入介面電路22包含第二連接器121及差分信號接收器122。LVDS interface circuit uses ultra-low voltage swing high-speed differential transmission data, low power consumption, low bit error rate, low crosstalk and low radiation, so it is widely used for signal integrity, low jitter and common mode requirements. In higher systems, such as data transfer between the motherboard and the display panel used in flat panel displays. Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a circuit diagram of the motherboard 11 and the display panel 12 of the conventional flat panel display 1 using LVDS interface circuit 2 for transmitting data. The LVDS interface circuit 2 includes an output interface circuit 21 disposed on the main board 11, and an input interface circuit 22 disposed on the display panel 12. The output interface circuit 21 includes a first connector 111 and a differential signal transmitter 112, and the input interface The circuit 22 includes a second connector 121 and a differential signal receiver 122.


  在主板11上,微控器與縮放器113接收類比或數位視訊輸入,並經過如類比至數位轉換、視訊解碼或影像縮放等處理後產生RGB影像資料以輸出至差分信號發射器112。差分信號發射器112將RGB影像資料與一些控制信號轉換成差分信號以輸出至第一連接器111,使得主板11從第一連接器111輸出差分信號。在顯示面板12上,從第二連接器121接收差分信號並輸出至差分信號接收器122。差分信號接收器122將差分信號反轉換而重製出RGB影像資料與控制信號以輸出至時序控制與行列驅動器123。時序控制與行列驅動器123根據重製的RGB影像資料與控制信號驅動像素陣列124顯示影像畫面。

On the main board 11, the micro controller and the scaler 113 receive the analog or digital video input, and generate RGB image data for output to the differential signal transmitter 112 after processing such as analog to digital conversion, video decoding or image scaling. The differential signal transmitter 112 converts the RGB image data and some control signals into differential signals for output to the first connector 111 such that the main board 11 outputs a differential signal from the first connector 111. On the display panel 12, a differential signal is received from the second connector 121 and output to the differential signal receiver 122.

  現有的平面顯示器1的主板11及顯示面板12採用的LVDS介面電路2的連接器(即主板11上用於輸出差分信號的第一連接器111及顯示面板12上用於接收差分信號的第二連接器121)有兩種類型,一種是FFC/FPC連接器,另一種是條形(wafer)連接器,其中,FFC是Flexible Flat Cable(軟性排線)的簡稱,FPC是Flexible Printed Circuit(軟性印刷電路板)的簡稱。

The motherboard 11 of the existing flat panel display 1 and the connector of the LVDS interface circuit 2 used by the display panel 12 (ie, the first connector 111 for outputting differential signals on the main board 11 and the second for receiving differential signals on the display panel 12) There are two types of connectors 121), one is an FFC/FPC connector, and the other is a wafer connector.

  非顯示面板生產公司在開發初世代或前幾世代的平面顯示器時,其主板及顯示面板採用的LVDS介面電路的連接器通常是同一類型,故能直接通過現有的連接線電連接以進行資料傳輸。例如,請參見圖2,主板11上的第一連接器111及顯示面板12上的第二連接器121均是FFC連接器,故主板11及顯示面板12能直接通過現有的FFC連接線23電連接。其中,FFC連接線23包含本體231及設於本體231兩端的連接器232和233,本體231即是FFC,且連接器232和233均是FFC連接器而能分別與第一連接器111及第二連接器121連接。

When the non-display panel production company develops the flat panel display of the first generation or the previous generations, the connectors of the LVDS interface circuit used in the main board and the display panel are usually the same type, so that the data can be directly connected through the existing connection line for data transmission. . For example, referring to FIG. 2, the first connector 111 on the main board 11 and the second connector 121 on the display panel 12 are all FFC connectors, so that the main board 11 and the display panel 12 can directly pass through the existing FFC connecting line 23. connection.

  然而,隨著平面顯示器經過多世代開發或在顯示面板緊缺的情況下,其主板及顯示面板採用的LVDS介面電路的連接器常常不是同一類型,故需要重新設計主板的佈線以便改用同一類型的連接器,或開發轉接板以提供主板及顯示面板之間的轉接,因而會增加設計及製造成本且延長開發週期。例如,請參見圖3,主板11上的第一連接器111及顯示面板12上的第二連接器121’分別是FFC連接器及條形連接器,故主板11及顯示面板12需要轉接板24進行轉接。轉接板24上設有彼此電連接的連接器241和242,且連接器241和242分別是FFC連接器及條形連接器。主板11上的第一連接器111通過FFC連接線23與轉接板24上的連接器241連接,且顯示面板12上的第二連接器121’通過雙絞連接線25與轉接板24上的連接器242連接,故主板11及顯示面板12通過轉接板24轉接而電連接。其中,FFC連接線23包含本體231及設於本體231兩端的連接器232和233,本體231即是FFC,且連接器232和233均是FFC連接器而能分別與第一連接器111及連接器241連接。雙絞連接線25包含本體251及設於本體251兩端的連接器252和253,本體251即是雙絞線,且連接器252和253均是條形連接器而能分別與連接器242及第二連接器121’連接。

However, as the flat panel display has been developed for many generations or the display panel is in short supply, the connectors of the LVDS interface circuit used in the main board and the display panel are often not the same type, so the wiring of the main board needs to be redesigned to use the same type. Connectors, or the development of adapter boards to provide switching between the motherboard and the display panel, thereby increasing design and manufacturing costs and extending the development cycle. For example, referring to FIG. 3, the first connector 111 on the main board 11 and the second connector 121' on the display panel 12 are respectively FFC connectors and strip connectors, so the main board 11 and the display panel 12 need an adapter board. 24 transfer.
