Description
本發明涉及一種顯示裝置及其驅動方法,尤其涉及電子紙顯示裝置及其驅動方法。The present invention relates to a display device and a driving method thereof, and more particularly to an electronic paper display device and a driving method thereof.
顯示裝置,如電子紙顯示裝置,由於具有可彎曲、較低功耗、以及對比度較高等優點,其現已越來越受大眾歡迎而逐漸成為供大眾閱讀信息的主流電子產品。電子紙顯示裝置通常包括記憶體單元、控制單元、驅動單元、以及電子紙顯示面板等組件。該控制單元電連接至該記憶體單元及該驅動單元。該驅動單元進一步電連接至該電子紙顯示面板。Display devices, such as electronic paper display devices, have become more and more popular and become mainstream electronic products for the public to read information due to their advantages of flexibility, low power consumption, and high contrast. Electronic paper display devices typically include components such as a memory unit, a control unit, a drive unit, and an electronic paper display panel. The control unit is electrically connected to the memory unit and the drive unit. The drive unit is further electrically connected to the electronic paper display panel.
當所述電子紙顯示裝置的畫面需要更新時,該控制單元直接比較舊的畫面與新的畫面,並根據比較之結果查詢存在於該記憶體單元內的輸出波形表,以控制該驅動單元輸出所需波形至該電子紙顯示面板來獲得所需的新的畫面。When the picture of the electronic paper display device needs to be updated, the control unit directly compares the old picture with the new picture, and queries the output waveform table existing in the memory unit according to the comparison result to control the output of the driving unit. The desired waveform is applied to the electronic paper display panel to obtain the desired new picture.
假設以16灰階系統為例,因為舊畫面的灰階有16種可能,新畫面的灰階也有16種可能,故,從舊畫面變成新畫面就會有16×16=256種可能的變化組合,亦即需要256種驅動波形。相應地,當該電子紙顯示裝置進行畫面更新時,該電子紙顯示面板內的顏色粒子需要經過數個畫面的驅動才能從當前位置遷移至目標灰階所對應的位置。可見,採用上述驅動方式的電子紙顯示裝置進行畫面更新所需的時間較長。Assume that the 16 grayscale system is taken as an example. Since there are 16 possibilities for the grayscale of the old screen, there are 16 possibilities for the grayscale of the new screen. Therefore, there will be 16×16=256 possible changes from the old screen to the new screen. Combination, that is, 256 drive waveforms are required. Correspondingly, when the electronic paper display device performs screen update, the color particles in the electronic paper display panel need to be driven by several screens to migrate from the current position to the position corresponding to the target gray scale. It can be seen that the electronic paper display device using the above driving method takes a long time to update the screen.
有鑒於此,有必要提供一種畫面更新速度較快的顯示裝置。In view of this, it is necessary to provide a display device with a fast picture update speed.

第三,該棋盤格過渡畫面35與該棋盤格過渡畫面34的驅動方式基本相同,二者主要區別在於:該資料驅動電路16施加至同一顯示單元20上的第二資料電壓D2不同,且其中一第二資料電壓D2與該第一公共電壓V1所形成的電場為正,另一第二資料電壓D2與該第一公共電壓V1所形成的電場為負。換句話說,該棋盤格過渡畫面35上的每一顯示單元20所顯示的畫面顏色與該棋盤格過渡畫面34上與的同一顯示單元20所顯示的畫面顏色不同,例如,該棋盤格過渡畫面35上的一顯示單元20所顯示的畫面顏色為白色,該棋盤格過渡畫面34上的同一顯示單元20所顯示的畫面顏色為黑色。此處不再贅述該棋盤格過渡畫面35的驅動方式。Third, the checkerboard transition screen 35 is substantially the same as the masterboard transition screen 34, and the main difference is that the second data voltage D2 applied to the same display unit 20 by the data driving circuit 16 is different, and wherein The electric field formed by the second data voltage D2 and the first common voltage V1 is positive, and the electric field formed by the second data voltage D2 and the first common voltage V1 is negative. In other words, the screen color displayed by each display unit 20 on the checkerboard transition screen 35 is different from the screen color displayed by the same display unit 20 on the checkerboard transition screen 34, for example, the checkerboard transition screen. The screen color displayed by a display unit 20 on the screen 35 is white, and the screen color displayed by the same display unit 20 on the checkerboard transition screen 34 is black. The driving manner of the checkerboard transition screen 35 will not be described here.
第四,該全白過渡畫面36與該全黑過渡畫面33的驅動方式基本相同,二者主要區別在於:首先,對於該二顏色不同之單一顏色的黑白過渡畫面33、36,該公共電壓產生電路18對應分別施加至該公共電極110的第二公共電壓V2不同。在本實施例中,該公共電壓產生電路18施加二不同之第二公共電壓V2至該公共電極110,以對應驅動該電子紙顯示面板10顯示所述黑白顏色不同之單一顏色的過渡畫面33、36。其中,該二不同之第二公共電壓V2中之一第二公共電壓V2與該第一公共電壓V1之差值大於0,另一第二公共電壓V2與該第一公共電壓V1之差值小於0。Fourth, the all-white transition picture 36 is substantially the same as the driving mode of the all-black transition picture 33. The main difference between the two is: first, for the black-and-white transition pictures 33, 36 of the single color of the two colors, the common voltage is generated. The circuit 18 is different in correspondence with the second common voltage V2 applied to the common electrode 110, respectively. In this embodiment, the common voltage generating circuit 18 applies two different second common voltages V2 to the common electrode 110 to correspondingly drive the electronic paper display panel 10 to display a transition screen 33 of a single color different in color and color. 36. The difference between the second common voltage V2 of the two different second common voltages V2 and the first common voltage V1 is greater than 0, and the difference between the other second common voltage V2 and the first common voltage V1 is less than 0.
進一步地,對於該二顏色不同之單一顏色的黑白過渡畫面33、36,該資料驅動電路16施加至該多個畫素電極108的第二資料電壓D2均不同。此處對該全白過渡畫面36的驅動方式亦不再贅述。Further, for the black and white transition pictures 33 and 36 of the single color of the two colors different, the second data voltage D2 applied to the plurality of pixel electrodes 108 by the data driving circuit 16 is different. The manner of driving the all-white transition screen 36 will not be described here.
第五,當上述四過渡畫面全部顯示完畢之後,該時序控制電路12開始輸出對應該影像畫面32之第一資料訊號至該資料驅動電路16、輸出該第一掃描控制訊號至該掃描驅動電路14、以及輸出該第一電壓控制訊號至該公共電壓產生電路18。該掃描驅動電路14根據該第一掃描控制訊號對應依次施加掃描訊號至該電子紙顯示面板10上的各列顯示單元20。該資料驅動電路16根據該第一資料訊號對應產生第一資料電壓D1並輸出該第一資料電壓D1至該多個畫素電極108。該公共電壓產生電路18根據該第一電壓控制訊號對應提供該第一公共電壓V1至該公共電極110。從而,該電子紙顯示面板10顯示一對應影像資料之影像畫面。Fifth, after all the four transition screens are displayed, the timing control circuit 12 starts outputting the first data signal corresponding to the image frame 32 to the data driving circuit 16, and outputs the first scan control signal to the scan driving circuit 14. And outputting the first voltage control signal to the common voltage generating circuit 18. The scan driving circuit 14 sequentially applies scan signals to the column display units 20 on the electronic paper display panel 10 according to the first scan control signals. The data driving circuit 16 generates a first data voltage D1 according to the first data signal and outputs the first data voltage D1 to the plurality of pixel electrodes 108. The common voltage generating circuit 18 provides the first common voltage V1 to the common electrode 110 according to the first voltage control signal. Therefore, the electronic paper display panel 10 displays an image screen corresponding to the image data.
由上述內容可知,該電子紙顯示裝置1提供該第二公共電壓V2給該公共電極110,該第二公共電壓V2與該第二資料電壓D2之差的絕對值大於該第一公共電壓V1與該第二資料電壓D2之差的絕對值,以使該電子紙顯示裝置1顯示預定灰階之過渡畫面。由於在使該電子紙顯示裝置1顯示預定灰階之過渡畫面時,該公共電極110與每一畫素電極108之夾壓較大,故使得該多個第一電泳粒子112b與該多個第二電泳粒子112c的移動速度較快,從而減少抹除前一影像畫面的時間。It can be seen from the above that the electronic paper display device 1 provides the second common voltage V2 to the common electrode 110, and the absolute value of the difference between the second common voltage V2 and the second data voltage D2 is greater than the first common voltage V1. The absolute value of the difference between the second data voltages D2 is such that the electronic paper display device 1 displays a transition screen of a predetermined gray scale. Since the nip between the common electrode 110 and each of the pixel electrodes 108 is large when the electronic paper display device 1 displays the transition screen of the predetermined gray scale, the plurality of first electrophoretic particles 112b and the plurality of The two electrophoretic particles 112c move faster, thereby reducing the time for erasing the previous image frame.
其次,當該電子紙顯示一包括二種不同顏色的過渡畫面時,該掃描驅動電路14選擇先同時激活該第一顯示群組201與第二顯示群組203中一顯示群組中的各顯示單元20,該資料驅動電路16對應所輸出之第二資料電壓D2同時施加至先被同時激活的各顯示單元20的畫素電極108上,且對於同一行的顯示單元20所施加的第二資料電壓D2相同。該掃描驅動電路14然後再同時激活另一顯示群組中的各顯示單元20,該資料驅動電路16接下來所輸出之第二資料電壓D2再同時施加至後被同時激活的各顯示單元20的畫素電極108上,且對於同一行的顯示單元20所施加的第二資料電壓D2相同,而對於該第一顯示群組201與第二顯示群組203中的同一行顯示單元20所施加的第二資料電壓D2不同,且與該第一公共電壓V1所形成之二差值之一大於0,另一差值小於0。可見,相較於先前電子紙顯示裝置顯示棋盤格過渡畫面所採用依次施加掃描訊號至各列顯示單元的驅動方式,本發明的電子紙顯示裝置1所顯示的棋盤格過渡畫面34與35的時間更短,從而進一步減少抹除影像畫面31的時間。Next, when the electronic paper displays a transition screen including two different colors, the scan driving circuit 14 selects to simultaneously activate each display in a display group of the first display group 201 and the second display group 203. The unit 20, the data driving circuit 16 simultaneously applies the output second data voltage D2 to the pixel electrodes 108 of each display unit 20 that are simultaneously activated, and the second data applied to the display unit 20 of the same row. The voltage D2 is the same. The scan driving circuit 14 then simultaneously activates each display unit 20 in another display group, and the second data voltage D2 outputted by the data driving circuit 16 is simultaneously applied to each display unit 20 that is simultaneously activated. The second data voltage D2 applied to the display unit 20 of the same row on the pixel electrode 108 is the same, and is applied to the same display unit 20 of the first display group 201 and the second display group 203. The second data voltage D2 is different, and one of the two differences formed by the first common voltage V1 is greater than 0, and the other difference is less than zero. It can be seen that the time of the checkerboard transition screens 34 and 35 displayed by the electronic paper display device 1 of the present invention is compared with the driving mode in which the scanning signal is sequentially applied to the display units of the columns in the previous electronic paper display device. It is shorter, thereby further reducing the time for erasing the image frame 31.
