Description

1228700 五、發明說明(1) 一、 發明所屬之技術領域 本發明係關於一種平面顯示器之驅動裝置,特別指應用 於液晶顯示器中的背光源之驅動裝置。 二、 先前技術 一般平面顯示器,例如一液晶顯示器(1 i q u i d c r y s t a 1 d i s p 1 ay,LC D),其具有一液晶顯示面板、一背光源 .(b a c k 1 i g h t s 〇 u r c e )及一驅動裝置。驅動裝置係驅動背光源 以使背光源提供光源照亮液晶顯示面板。 請參閱圖一,圖一係習知液晶顯示器之驅動裝置1 0的示儀[ 意圖。驅動裝置1 0係用於驅動包含二冷陰極射線管1 8之背光 源。驅動裝置10包含一共振電路12(resonance circuit)、 二啟動電路1 4及二變壓器16( transformer)。二個變壓器 1 6皆以推挽(p u s h - p u 1 1)方式驅動。每一變壓器1 6皆包含 一 一次側(primary side)與一二次側(secondary side)。共 振電路1 2於每一一次側處提供三組繞組(w i n d i n g s),其分 別為第一繞組2 0、第二繞組2 2及第三繞組2 4。每一啟動電路 1 4於該相對應的二次侧處提供一第四繞組2 6。每一啟動電路 1 4的一端與相對應的冷陰極射線管1 8連接,另一端則接地。 共振電路1 2係用以提供適當且穩定的電流至位於該每--次_> 側的該組繞組(w i n d i n g s)處,經由每一變壓器1 6搞合 (c 〇u p 1 i n g),於該每一二次側之第四繞組2 6分別輸出一啟 動電壓。該啟動電壓用以點亮相對應的冷陰極射線管1 8。驅 動裝置1 0中,兩變壓器1 6的所有繞組形成之極性皆相同。
第5頁 1228700 五、發明說明(2) 請參閱圖二,圖二係圖一之二變壓器1 6二次側的驅動波 形圖。圖二中,L 1及L 2為驅動裝置1 0之兩變壓器1 6在二次側 各自產生的驅動波形,L則為L1及L 2的合成波。由於習知驅 動裝置1 0係由同一共振電路1 2供給電流給位於兩變壓器1 6— 次側的該組繞組,因此兩變壓器1 6二次側將產生兩相同頻 率、相位差及振幅的驅動波L 1、L 2,經合成後,將產生擴大 的合成波L。由於驅動波對於人體健康有害且會對電子訊號 產生干擾,因此相關業者莫不致力於研究減少驅動波形成的 技術。 請參閱圖三,圖三係習知另一驅動裝置2 8的示意圖。美H 國專利第6,5 1 5,4 2 7號提供一種驅動裝置2 8。針對推挽方式 驅動的變壓器,驅動裝置2 8係改變習知驅動裝置1 0之變壓器 1 6—次側的第二繞組2 2所形成的極性,藉由將兩變壓器1 6中 一變壓器1 6的一次侧的第二繞組3 0線圈反繞,以形成相反之 極性。驅動裝置2 8使兩變壓器1 6—次側所產生的兩驅動波之 頻率及振幅相同,但波形達到1 8 0度的相位差。經耦合等倍 數擴大電壓後,該些二次侧所產生的兩驅動波可互相抵銷。 然而,仔細探究驅動裝置2 8,經兩變壓器1 6耦合後,其 相位差將極有可能改變,無法達到1 8 0度,因此經耦合等倍 數擴大電壓後,該兩驅動波將不可能完全互相抵銷,若使用_ 目的是為了減輕晝面上的干擾尚且足夠,然而若是要用來作 為低頻電場輻射抑制對策就不夠精準,而使改良效果大打折 扣。
第6頁 1228700 五、發明說明(3) 三、 發明内容 本發明之一目的係提供一種應用於液晶顯示器之驅動裝 置,用以解決習知技術所產生的問題。 本發明提供一種使用於一平面顯示器之驅動裝置。平面 顯示器包含一顯示面板,以及至少二燈管用來作為顯示面板 之背光源。本發明之驅動裝置包含二變壓器。每一變壓器包 含有--次側與一二次側,該些變壓器之一次側係與一共振 電路相連接,而每一變壓器之二次側則與一相對應之燈管相 連接以用來點亮燈管。該二變壓器中之一次側繞組極性相 同,而該二變壓器中有一變壓器的二次側繞組線圈反繞以形4 成相反之極性。 本發明之驅動裝置係將兩變壓器中一變壓器的二次側繞 組線圈反繞以形成相反之極性,並藉由兩個二次側的繞組線 圈進行驅動波相位控制,使得兩變壓器之二次側所產生之驅 動波,其頻率及振幅相同,而相位差維持於1 8 0度。因此兩 變壓器之二次側所產生之驅動波形將互相抵銷,可抑制低頻 電場之輻射。本發明之驅動裝置並未包含其他電磁遮蔽材 料,仍可大幅降低驅動波干擾的影響。並且本發明之驅動裝 置不限於僅利用一個共振電路,也不限於僅利用推挽方式的 線路架構。 & 關於本發明之優點與精神可以藉由以下的發明詳述及所 附圖式得到進一步的暸解。 四、 實施方式
第7頁 1228700 五、發明說明(5) 壓器1 6中有一變壓器1 6的二次側繞組線圈反繞以形成相反之 極性,並藉該兩個二次侧的繞組線圈進行驅動波相位控制, 使得兩變壓器1 6之二次側所產生之驅動波,其頻率及振幅均 相同,而相位差維持於1 8 0度。 請參閱圖四及圖五,圖五係圖四之驅動裝置4 0之變壓器 1 6二次側的驅動波形圖。本發明驅動裝置4 0之結果如圖五, 其中D 1及D2為驅動裝置5 0之兩變壓器1 6在其二次側各自產生 的驅動波形,而D為D1及D 2的合成波。由圖五可知,藉由本 發明可真正達到兩變壓器1 6之二次側所產生的兩驅動波互相 抵銷的效果。本發明之驅動裝置並未利用其他電磁遮蔽材 # 料,而利用兩頻率相同而相位相反的驅動波形彼此抵銷,來 抑制低頻電場之輪射。 請參閱圖六,圖六係本發明第二具體實施例之驅動裝置 5 0之示意圖。本發明亦可應用於一組共振電路只提供電流給 一個變壓器的一次側的設計。在第二具體實施例中,驅動裝 置5 0包含二共振電路52、二啟動電路14及二變壓器16。二個 變壓器1 6使用同一種驅動方式。第二實施例之驅動裝置5 0與 第一實施例之驅動裝置4 0主要不同之處在於共振電路,其餘 之配置及驅動方式則類似。驅動裝置5 0之每一共振電路5 2係 只對應於兩變壓器1 6的其中一個,此與第一實施例中,驅動 裝置4 0之共振電路4 2直接對應兩變壓器1 6不同。 本發明之驅動裝置中,一個變壓器所相對應之燈管數目 並不限定一根,且燈管種類並不限定於冷陰極射線管◦此 外,在每一啟動電路1 4連接的燈管數量相同的情形下,每一
第9頁 1228700 五、發明說明(6) 啟動電路1 4可並聯連接複數根燈管。本發明的應用並不只限 於推挽方式的線路架構,只要兩變壓器的驅動方式相同即 。 比較習知驅動裝置2 8 (圖三),其中,兩個一次側需由 同一共振電路提供電流,且其僅適用推挽形式的線路架構, 因而習知驅動裝置2 8在應用上有所限制。本發明之驅動裝置 4 0、5 0則不限於僅利用一個共振電路,也不限於僅利用推挽 方式的線路架構。 並且,經實驗得知,習知驅動裝置2 8無法克服經兩變壓 器1 6耦合後所產生的相位差,且其低頻電場之輻射約為 < 1. 5 V/m。相較於習知驅動裝置2 8,本發明之驅動裝置,使得 該兩頻率相同而相位相反的驅動波形彼此抵銷,來抑制低頻 電場之輻射。即使未利用其他電磁遮蔽材料,本發明驅動裝 置中,所測得低頻電場輻射之讀值(reading data)可降低為 0· 8V/m〜0· 3V/m。 本發明之驅動裝置4 0、5 0將兩變壓器1 6中一變壓器1 6的 二次側繞組線圈反繞以形成相反之極性,並藉由該兩二次側 的繞組線圈進行驅動波相位控制,使得兩變壓器1 6之二次側 所產生之驅動波,其頻率及振幅相同,而相位差維持於1 8 0 度。由於兩變壓器1 6之二次側所產生之驅動波形,其頻率相 同而相位相反而互相抵銷,可抑制低頻電場之輻射。本發明 之驅動裝置並未包含其他電磁遮蔽材料,仍可大幅降低驅動 波干擾的影響。 藉由以上較佳具體實施例之詳述,係希望能更加清楚描
第10頁 1228700 五、發明說明(7) 述本發明之特徵與精神,而並非以上述所揭露的較佳具體實 施例來對本發明之範轉加以限制。相反地,其目的是希望能 涵蓋各種改變及具相等性的安排於本發明所欲申請之專利範 圍的範疇内。
