In view of the above, the
請一併參閱第1圖~第3圖。第3圖為根據本揭示文件一實施例的驅動方法300的流程圖。如第3圖所繪示,驅動方法300適用於顯示裝置100,用以控制流經發光二極體OLED的驅動電流Id。驅動方法300首先執行步驟S310畫素電路130接收由源極驅動電路110輸出的資料電壓Vdata以及由電源供應電路140輸出的參考電壓Vref,並且根據資料電壓Vdata以及參考電壓Vref控制流經發光二極體OLED的驅動電流Id。
Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 together. FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a
請參考第4A圖,第4A圖為根據本揭示文件一實施例的資料電壓Vdata與參考電壓Vref的示意圖。如第4A圖所示,參考電壓Vref具有第一參考電壓位準Vref1,資料電壓Vdata具有第一資料電壓位準Vdata1。於一實施例中,第一參考電壓位準Vref1以及第一資料電壓位準Vdata1可以決定發光二極體OLED顯示一般模式的亮度, 一般亮度模式在此設定為350nits。資料電壓Vdata為正電壓而參考電壓Vref為負電壓。 Please refer to FIG. 4A, which is a schematic diagram of the data voltage Vdata and the reference voltage Vref according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4A, the reference voltage Vref has a first reference voltage level Vref1, and the data voltage Vdata has a first data voltage level Vdata1. In one embodiment, the first reference voltage level Vref1 and the first data voltage level Vdata1 can determine the brightness of the light emitting diode OLED display in the general mode. The general brightness mode is set to 350nits here. The data voltage Vdata is a positive voltage and the reference voltage Vref is a negative voltage.
接著,驅動方法300執行步驟S320於第一時段T1內,電源供應電路140調整參考電壓Vref的電壓位準。於一實施例中,電源供應電路140將參考電壓Vref由第一參考電壓位準Vref1調整為第二參考電壓位準Vref2。由第4A圖所示,電源供應電路140增加參考電壓Vref負電壓,因此調整第二參考電壓位準Vref2會比第一參考電壓位準Vref1小,第二參考電壓位準Vref2與第一參考電壓位準Vref1之間具有參考電壓差異量Vref_diff。舉例而言,第二參考電壓位準Vref2為-10V,第一參考電壓位準Vref1為-5V,在此情況下,參考電壓差異量Vref_diff為-10V-(-5V)=-5V,因此參考電壓差異量Vref_diff為負值。
Next, the
接著,驅動方法300執行步驟S330於第一時段T1中,源極驅動電路110調整資料電壓Vdata的電壓位準。於一實施例中,源極驅動電路110先將資料電壓Vdata由第一資料電壓位準Vdata1調整為第二資料電壓位準Vdata2,再將第二資料電壓位準Vdata2調整為第三資料電壓位準Vdata3。由第4A圖所示,源極驅動電路110增加資料電壓Vdata的正電壓,因此調整第二資料電壓位準Vdata2會比第一資料電壓位準Vdata1大,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3會比第二資料電壓位準Vdata2大,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3與第二資料電壓位準Vdata2具有資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff,第二資料電壓位準Vdata2與第一資料電
壓位準Vdata1之間也具有資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff。
Next, the
舉例而言,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3為15V,第二資料電壓位準Vdata2為10V,第一資料電壓位準Vdata1為5V,在此情況下,資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff為15V-10V=5V,因此資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff為正值。如此一來,參考電壓Vref會持續降低,資料電壓Vata會持續增加,參考電壓Vref與資料電壓Vata之間的電壓差異持續擴大,亮度可以從一般模式漸漸提升至高亮度模式。 For example, the third data voltage level Vdata3 is 15V, the second data voltage level Vdata2 is 10V, and the first data voltage level Vdata1 is 5V. In this case, the data voltage difference Vdata_diff is 15V-10V=5V , Therefore the data voltage difference Vdata_diff is a positive value. As a result, the reference voltage Vref will continue to decrease, the data voltage Vata will continue to increase, and the voltage difference between the reference voltage Vref and the data voltage Vata will continue to expand, and the brightness can be gradually increased from the normal mode to the high brightness mode.
接著,驅動方法300執行步驟S340畫素電路130接收由資料電壓Vdata以及參考電壓Vref,並且用以根據第三資料電壓位準Vdata3以及第二參考電壓位準Vref2控制流經發光二極體OLED的驅動電流Id。如第4A圖所示,高亮度模式在此設定為1000nits,從一般亮度模式的350nits調整到高亮度模式的1000nits可以分成多個時段並且亮度調整大約持續30~80毫秒,而第一時段T1大約為5~15毫秒,因此在亮度調整的期間大概會有5~8個時段。在最後一個時段Tm將資料電壓Vdata調整到最後的資料電壓位準Vdatan以及將參考電壓Vref調整到最後的參考電壓位準Vrefn,以決定發光二極體OLED的驅動電流Id。
Next, the
於一實施例中,請參閱第4B圖,第4B圖為根據本揭示文件一實施例的資料電壓Vdata與參考電壓Vref的示意圖。如第4B圖所示,電源供應電路140將參考電壓Vref由第一參考電壓位準Vref1調整為第二參考電壓位準Vref2,電源供應電路140降低參考電壓Vref負電壓,因此
調整第二參考電壓位準Vref2會比第一參考電壓位準Vref1大,第二參考電壓位準Vref2與第一參考電壓位準Vref1之間具有參考電壓差異量Vref_diff。舉例而言,第二參考電壓位準Vref2為-5V,第一參考電壓位準Vref1為-10V,在此情況下,參考電壓差異量Vref_diff為-5V-(-10V)=5V,因此參考電壓差異量Vref_diff為正值。
In one embodiment, please refer to FIG. 4B. FIG. 4B is a schematic diagram of the data voltage Vdata and the reference voltage Vref according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4B, the
承上述,源極驅動電路110先將資料電壓Vdata由第一資料電壓位準Vdata1調整為第二資料電壓位準Vdata2,再將第二資料電壓位準Vdata2調整為第三資料電壓位準Vdata3。源極驅動電路110降低資料電壓Vdata的正電壓,因此調整第二資料電壓位準Vdata2會比第一資料電壓位準Vdata1小,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3會比第二資料電壓位準Vdata2小,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3與第二資料電壓位準Vdata2具有資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff,第二資料電壓位準Vdata2與第一資料電壓位準Vdata1之間也具有資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff。
In view of the above, the
舉例而言,第三資料電壓位準Vdata3為5V,第二資料電壓位準Vdata2為10V,第一資料電壓位準Vdata1為15V,在此情況下,資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff為5V-10V=-5V,因此資料電壓差異量Vdata_diff為負值。如此一來,參考電壓Vref會持續增加,資料電壓Vata會持續降低,參考電壓Vref與資料電壓Vata之間的電壓差異持續縮小,亮度可以從高亮度模式漸漸降低至一般模式。 For example, the third data voltage level Vdata3 is 5V, the second data voltage level Vdata2 is 10V, and the first data voltage level Vdata1 is 15V. In this case, the data voltage difference Vdata_diff is 5V-10V=- 5V, so the data voltage difference Vdata_diff is a negative value. As a result, the reference voltage Vref will continue to increase, the data voltage Vata will continue to decrease, and the voltage difference between the reference voltage Vref and the data voltage Vata will continue to shrink, and the brightness can gradually decrease from the high-brightness mode to the normal mode.
於另一實施例中,請參考第5圖,第5圖為根據
本揭示文件一實施例的驅動方法500的流程圖。驅動方法500適用於顯示裝置100,驅動方法500執行步驟S510以及步驟S520,畫素電路130接收由源極驅動電路110輸出的資料電壓Vdata以及由電源供應電路140輸出的參考電壓Vref,接著於M個時段內,電源供應電路140將參考電壓Vref調整M次。
In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 5, which is based on
A flowchart of a
承上述,請一併參考第4A圖及第4B圖,由第4A圖所示,高亮度模式在此設定為1000nits,從一般亮度模式的350nits調整到高亮度模式的1000nits可以分成M個時段並且亮度調整大約持續30~80毫秒,而第一時段T1大約為5~15毫秒,因此在亮度調整的期間大概會有5~8個時段。如此一來,參考電壓Vref至少會調整5~8次。 In view of the above, please refer to Figure 4A and Figure 4B together. As shown in Figure 4A, the high-brightness mode is set to 1000nits here. Adjusting from 350nits in the normal brightness mode to 1000nits in the high-brightness mode can be divided into M periods and The brightness adjustment lasts approximately 30 to 80 milliseconds, and the first period T1 is approximately 5 to 15 milliseconds, so there may be 5 to 8 periods during the brightness adjustment. In this way, the reference voltage Vref will be adjusted at least 5 to 8 times.
承上述,驅動方法500執行步驟S530於M個時段的其中一個時段,源極驅動電路110將資料電壓Vdata調整N次。舉例而言,在第4A圖及第4B圖所示的實施例中資料電壓Vdata是調整2次,也可以視情況調整資料電壓Vdata的調整次數,本發明不在此限。
In view of the above, the
承上述,驅動方法500執行步驟S540畫素電路130接收由資料電壓Vdata以及參考電壓Vref,並且根據資料電壓Vdata以及參考電壓Vref控制流經發光二極體OLED的驅動電流Id。步驟S540的操作與步驟S340相同,在此不再贅述。如第4A圖及第4B圖所示,在M個時段內,電源供應電路140會將參考電壓Vref會調整M次,源極驅動電路110將資料電壓Vdata調整M*N次。
In view of the above, the

In another embodiment, please refer to FIG. 6A, FIG. 6B, and FIG. 6C together. FIG. 6A is a flowchart of a
接著,驅動方法600執行步驟S620於時段T1內,電源供應電路140調整參考電壓Vref的電壓位準。如第6B圖所示,電源供應電路140增加參考電壓Vref負電壓,將參考電壓Vref由第一參考電壓位準Vref1調整為第二參考電壓位準Vref2,因此可以將參考電壓Vref與資料電壓Vata之間的電壓差異持續擴大,亮度可以從一般模式漸漸提升至高亮度模式。
Next, the
承上述,如第6C圖所示,電源供應電路140降低參考電壓Vref負電壓,將參考電壓Vref由第一參考電壓位準Vref1調整為第二參考電壓位準Vref2,因此可以將參考電壓Vref與資料電壓Vata之間的電壓差異持續降低,亮度可以從高亮度模式漸漸降低至一般模式。

However, those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field should understand that the same element may be called by different terms. The specification and the scope of the patent application do not use the difference in names as a way of distinguishing elements, but the difference in function of the elements as the basis for distinguishing. The "including" mentioned in the specification and the scope of the patent application is an open term, so it should be interpreted as "including but not limited to". In addition, "coupling" here includes any direct and indirect connection means. Therefore, if it is described that the first element is coupled to the second element, it means that the first element can be directly connected to the second element through electrical connection, wireless transmission, optical transmission, or other signal connection methods, or through other elements or connections. The means is indirectly connected to the second element electrically or signally.
