Description
本發明係有關一種背光驅動之裝置及其方法,特別是有關一種多區域動態背光驅動之裝置及其方法。The present invention relates to a backlight driving device and method thereof, and more particularly to a multi-region dynamic backlight driving device and method thereof.
由於在一液晶顯示裝置中用以成像的液晶顯示面板本身並無法產生光線,必須透過背光模組來提供光源以將影像呈現於顯示面板上,且就習知的技術而言,係可將顯示面板區分為複數個顯示區域並且每一顯示區域係具有相對應之背光源,其用途例如利用分區關閉背光源的方式達成插黑畫面的效果以降低液晶顯示面板在顯示動態影像時可能產生的殘影問題,或是配合各顯示分區畫面調整各分區的背光源亮度,以達到省電的目的。然而,對於相鄰近之背光源之間,係會依據背光源之間的距離及其亮度的不同而具有不同的光場,進而使得對於亮度要求不同的相鄰顯示分區在實際顯示影像時產生相互干擾。Since the liquid crystal display panel used for imaging in a liquid crystal display device itself cannot generate light, the light source must be provided through the backlight module to present the image on the display panel, and in the conventional technology, the display can be performed. The panel is divided into a plurality of display areas, and each display area has a corresponding backlight, and the use thereof is achieved by, for example, using a partition to turn off the backlight to achieve the effect of inserting a black screen to reduce the residual of the liquid crystal display panel when displaying the dynamic image. Shadow problem, or adjust the backlight brightness of each partition with each display partition screen to save power. However, for adjacent backlights, there are different light fields depending on the distance between the backlights and their brightness, so that adjacent display partitions with different brightness requirements generate mutual images when actually displaying images. interference.
習知的顯示裝置其結構係例如第一圖所示,在此一利用背光源分區調光之架構中,係包括有三個背光源與一個顯示面板,上述的三個背光源係分別為第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123,其中背光源121、122或123任一實際上不限指單一點光源或單一線光源,也可以是多個位於同一背光模組分區的點光源或線光源的總稱,且上述的顯示面板則相對應於第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123而分成第一顯示區域101、第二顯示區域102與第三顯示區域103,換言之,第一顯示區域101所需要的光源係主要由第一背光源121來提供,第二顯示區域102所需要的光源係主要由第二背光源122來提供,第三顯示區域103所需要的光源係由主要第三背光源123來提供,而在第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123之間係利用其相對應的顯示區域101、102、103所需要的目標亮度以調整產生之光源的強度,舉例來說,若當第二顯示區域122之目標亮度係為第一顯示區域101之目標亮度的一半且為第三顯示區域103之目標亮度的四分之一時,相對應之第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123的亮度在量化後則應該滿足2:1:4的比例,故,當第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123同時開啟時,雖然每一顯示區域101、102、103所對應之背光源121、122、123係提供不同亮度的光源,但是卻因為第一背光源121、第二背光源122與第三背光源123之間的光場效應影響,即各顯示區域101、102、103可能受到其相鄰顯示區域對應的背光源所干擾,而使得最終到相對應的第一顯示區域101、第二顯示區域102與第三顯示區域103時所顯現出的實際亮度並非原始的目標亮度,因而使得整體畫面的協調性變得較差。The structure of the conventional display device is, for example, shown in the first figure. In the architecture using backlight partitioning, there are three backlights and a display panel, and the three backlights are respectively the first. The backlight 121, the second backlight 122, and the third backlight 123, wherein any one of the backlights 121, 122, or 123 is not limited to a single point source or a single line source, or may be multiple of the same backlight module partition. A general name of a point light source or a line light source, and the display panel is divided into a first display area 101, a second display area 102, and a first backlight 121, a second backlight 122, and a third backlight 123. The third display area 103, in other words, the light source required by the first display area 101 is mainly provided by the first backlight 121, and the light source required by the second display area 102 is mainly provided by the second backlight 122, and the third display The light source required for the area 103 is provided by the main third backlight 123, and the corresponding display areas 101, 102 are utilized between the first backlight 121, the second backlight 122 and the third backlight 123, 103 needs The target brightness is adjusted to adjust the intensity of the generated light source. For example, if the target brightness of the second display area 122 is half of the target brightness of the first display area 101 and is the target brightness of the third display area 103. At one time, the brightness of the corresponding first backlight 121, the second backlight 122, and the third backlight 123 should be 2:1:4 after being quantized, so when the first backlight 121, the second When the backlight 122 and the third backlight 123 are simultaneously turned on, although the backlights 121, 122, and 123 corresponding to each of the display areas 101, 102, and 103 provide light sources of different brightness, the first backlight 121 and the first The effect of the light field effect between the backlight 122 and the third backlight 123 is that each display area 101, 102, 103 may be interfered by the backlight corresponding to its adjacent display area, so that the corresponding first The actual brightness that appears when the display area 101, the second display area 102, and the third display area 103 are displayed is not the original target brightness, thus making the overall picture coordination poor.
也因此,針對分區調光方式所存在的問題,在習知的技術中則發展出另一種結構設計以改善上述的缺失,請參考第二圖所示,其係為習知具有光阻隔結構之多區域背光模組的結構示意圖,在此背光模組中的三個背光源121、122、123之間係加設兩個光阻隔單元141、142,以避免背光源所產生的光線入射至鄰近的子顯示區域而發生相互干擾的情形,換言之,也就是達到降低不同背光源121、122、123之間光場相互影響的目的。然而,在第二圖中的多區域背光模組結構中,介於背光源121、122、123之間的光阻隔單元141、142雖然可降低部分光場影響的問題,實際上卻因為光線係具有散射或是繞射的特性而無法十分有效地解決光場相互影響的問題,另外在實際生產上,光阻隔單元需和顯示面板有準確的對位才能達到良好的光阻隔效果,如此亦增加了生產時的難度。Therefore, in view of the problems existing in the mode dimming mode, another structural design has been developed in the prior art to improve the above-mentioned defects. Please refer to the second figure, which is a conventional light blocking structure. The structure of the multi-region backlight module is such that two light blocking units 141 and 142 are added between the three backlights 121, 122, and 123 in the backlight module to prevent the light generated by the backlight from being incident to the vicinity. The sub-display area is interfered with by each other, in other words, the purpose of reducing the mutual influence of the light fields between the different backlights 121, 122, 123 is achieved. However, in the multi-region backlight module structure in the second figure, the light blocking units 141, 142 interposed between the backlights 121, 122, 123 can reduce the influence of part of the light field, but actually because of the light system. It has the characteristics of scattering or diffraction and can not solve the problem of mutual influence of light field very effectively. In addition, in actual production, the light blocking unit needs to have an accurate alignment with the display panel to achieve a good light blocking effect, thus increasing The difficulty of production.

Similarly, in steps S2 and S3, the first sub-display partition 201 can respectively display the green and blue components in the picture, and is not interfered by the second light source 222 corresponding to the second sub-display partition 202. In addition, the opening time lengths of the red sub-light source 2211, the green sub-light source 2212, and the blue sub-light source 2213 in steps S1, S2, and S3 should be adjusted according to the brightness of each light source, so that the overall light source is in one frame time (Frame Time) is equivalent to a white light source. If the intensity of each sub-light source in step S1 is greater than the intensity of each sub-light source in step S2, and step S1 occurs at a first sub-picture time and step S2 occurs at a second sub-picture time, then the first picture sub-time should be Shorter than the second sub-picture time. That is, the intensity of the sub-light source in each step should be approximately inversely proportional to the length of time implemented in each step, so that each sub-light source is equivalent to a white light source.
同樣的,第二子顯示分區202可在步驟S1~S3依序顯示畫面的綠色、藍色及紅色成份,並不受到光源221及223的干擾,而第三子顯示分區203可依序顯示畫面的藍色、紅色、綠色成分,並不受到光源222的干擾。綜合以上所述,即可達成分區控制背光強度下,減輕使各背光分區之光源相互的干擾的問題。Similarly, the second sub-display partition 202 can sequentially display the green, blue, and red components of the screen in steps S1 to S3, and is not interfered by the light sources 221 and 223, and the third sub-display partition 203 can sequentially display the screen. The blue, red, and green components are not interfered by the light source 222. In summary, as described above, it is possible to achieve the problem of ensuring interference between the light sources of the respective backlight partitions under the control of the backlight intensity of the partition.
以上所述,係以三原色(紅、綠、藍)子光源分別於不同時間開啟為例,但亦可以採取其中兩種顏色子光源同時於一第一時段開啟,而於一第二時段開啟以達到一等效白光源之效果。圖三之裝置與圖五流程圖之以下步驟S1’~S2’為例:在步驟S1’時,開啟第一光源221中的紅色子光源2211和藍色子光源2213、第二光源222中的綠色子光源2222,及第三光源223中的紅色子光源2231和藍色子光源2233;關閉第一光源中的綠色子光源2212,第二光源中非綠色子光源2221、2223,以及第三光源中綠色子光源2232;關閉第一光開關中綠色子光開關2212’,第二光開關中非綠色子光開關2221’、2223’,以及第三光開關中綠色子光開關2232’;在步驟S2’時,開啟第一光源221中的綠色子光源2212、第二光源222中的紅色子光源2221和藍色子光源2223,以及第三光源223中的綠色子光源2232;關閉第一光源中非綠色子光源2211、2213,第二光源中綠色子光源2222,以及第三光源中非綠色子光源2231、2233;關閉第一光開關中非綠色子光開關2211’、2213’,第二光開關中綠色子光開關2222’,第三光開關中非綠色子光開關2231’、2233’。As described above, the three primary colors (red, green, and blue) sub-light sources are respectively turned on at different times, but two color sub-light sources may be simultaneously turned on at a first time period and turned on at a second time period. Achieve the effect of an equivalent white light source. The following steps S1' to S2' of the apparatus of FIG. 3 and the flowchart of FIG. 5 are taken as an example: in step S1', the red sub-light source 2211 and the blue sub-light source 2213 and the second light source 222 in the first light source 221 are turned on. a green sub-light source 2222, and a red sub-light source 2231 and a blue sub-light source 2233 in the third light source 223; a green sub-light source 2212 in the first light source, a non-green sub-light source 2221, 2223 in the second light source, and a third light source a medium green sub-light source 2232; a green sub-optical switch 2212' in the first optical switch, a non-green sub-optical switch 2221', 2223' in the second optical switch, and a green sub-optical switch 2232' in the third optical switch; In S2', the green sub-light source 2212 in the first light source 221, the red sub-light source 2221 and the blue sub-light source 2223 in the second light source 222, and the green sub-light source 2232 in the third light source 223 are turned on; a non-green sub-light source 2211, 2213, a green sub-light source 2222 in the second light source, and a non-green sub-light source 2231, 2233 in the third light source; the non-green sub-optical switches 2211', 2213' in the first optical switch are turned off, the second light Green light switch 2222 in the switch ', the non-green sub-optical switches 2231', 2233' in the third optical switch.
以第一子顯示分區201為例,在步驟S1中,可由第一光源221中的紅色子光源2211及藍色子光源2213提供紅色光和藍色光以顯示畫面中的紅色及藍色成分,而藉由關閉第二子光開關單元2212’(在此實施態樣中為第一子顯示分區的綠色子開關單元),可使第一子顯示分區201不受到第二光源222中綠色子光源2222的干擾,但此時第二光源中非綠色子光源也皆關閉,也就是第一子顯示分區201可不受到第二光源222的干擾。在步驟S2’中,第一子顯示分區201可顯示畫面中的綠色成分,並且因為第一子顯示分區201中的非綠色子光開關2211’、2213’皆已關閉,因此不會受到第二光源中紅色子光源2221及藍色子光源2223的干擾,即不會受到第二子顯示分區202對應的第二光源222的干擾。Taking the first sub-display area 201 as an example, in step S1, red light and blue light may be provided by the red sub-light source 2211 and the blue sub-light source 2213 in the first light source 221 to display red and blue components in the picture. The first sub-display partition 201 can be prevented from being subjected to the green sub-light source 2222 in the second light source 222 by turning off the second sub-optical switch unit 2212' (the green sub-switch unit of the first sub-display partition in this embodiment). The interference, but at this time, the non-green sub-light source in the second light source is also turned off, that is, the first sub-display partition 201 may not be interfered by the second light source 222. In step S2', the first sub-display partition 201 can display the green component in the picture, and since the non-green sub-optical switches 2211', 2213' in the first sub-display section 201 are all closed, they are not subject to the second The interference of the red sub-light source 2221 and the blue sub-light source 2223 in the light source is not interfered by the second light source 222 corresponding to the second sub-display section 202.
同理,第二子顯示分區202及第三子顯示分區203亦可經由S1’~S2’所述的驅動方式,達到分區調整背光強度,但是不致產生相鄰背光源互相干擾的問題。Similarly, the second sub-display partition 202 and the third sub-display partition 203 can also achieve the partition adjustment backlight intensity through the driving manner described in S1'~S2', but the problem that adjacent backlights do not interfere with each other is not caused.
另外,本發明亦可用於單色顯示裝置,例如將圖三的裝置中的各子光源皆採用同一顏色光源,而各子開關單元皆採用可控制上述該顏色光源穿透率的液晶畫素。以此裝置與圖六流程圖之以下步驟S1”~S2”為例:在步驟S1”時,開啟第一光源221及第三光源223;關閉第二光源222;關閉第二光開關單元242;在步驟S2”時,開啟第二光源222;關閉第一光源221及第三光源223;關閉第一光開關單元241及第三光開關單元243。In addition, the present invention can also be applied to a monochrome display device. For example, each of the sub-light sources in the device of FIG. 3 uses the same color light source, and each of the sub-switch units adopts a liquid crystal pixel that can control the transmittance of the color light source. Taking the following steps S1"~S2" of the apparatus and the flowchart of FIG. 6 as an example: in step S1", the first light source 221 and the third light source 223 are turned on; the second light source 222 is turned off; and the second optical switch unit 242 is turned off; In step S2", the second light source 222 is turned on; the first light source 221 and the third light source 223 are turned off; and the first optical switch unit 241 and the third optical switch unit 243 are turned off.
以第一子顯示分區201為例,在步驟S1”中因第二光源222已經關閉,因此不會受到第二光源222的干擾,而在步驟S2”中,因為第一子顯示分區201中的光開關單元241已經關閉,亦不會受到第二光源222的干擾。同理,第二子顯示分區202不會受到第一光源221及第三光源223的干擾,而第三子顯示分區203不會受到第二光源222的干擾。因此即可達成在單色顯示裝置實施分區調整背光強度,又不致使相鄰背光源互相干擾的目的。Taking the first sub-display partition 201 as an example, in step S1", since the second light source 222 has been turned off, it is not interfered by the second light source 222, and in step S2", because the first sub-display partition 201 The optical switch unit 241 has been turned off and is not interfered by the second light source 222. Similarly, the second sub-display partition 202 is not interfered by the first light source 221 and the third light source 223, and the third sub-display partition 203 is not interfered by the second light source 222. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the purpose of adjusting the backlight intensity in the monochrome display device without causing adjacent backlights to interfere with each other.
以上所述雖然以紅光子光源、綠光子光源與藍光子光源為例,然而,除了紅光子光源、綠光子光源與藍光子光源之外,子光源亦可選自於由紅光子光源、綠光子光源與藍光子光源所組合而成的,例如,由紅光與藍光所組成的紫光子光源...等等。原則上只要可經由調整各子光源開時間及光強度而組成一等效白光源即可。Although the red photon source, the green photon source and the blue sub-source are taken as an example, the sub-light source may be selected from the red photon source and the green photon, in addition to the red photon source, the green photon source and the blue sub-source. A combination of a light source and a blue sub-light source, for example, a violet photon source composed of red and blue light, and the like. In principle, an equivalent white light source can be formed by adjusting the opening time and light intensity of each sub-light source.
另外,本發明可應用於彩色液晶顯示裝置或一般液晶顯示裝置,一般液晶顯示裝置為使用一時序控制器搭配顯示驅動電路對液晶顯示面板施加電壓,以控制各個液晶畫素之穿透率,對於背光模組則需要另外一背光驅動電路進行背光源的開關、亮度的控制。在實施本發明所述之多區域背光控制方法時,當一子光開關需被關閉時,則經由顯示驅動電路輸入相對應電壓使該液晶畫素穿透率降低,而當該當子光開關不需被關閉時,顯示驅動電路則根據畫面輸入對應的電壓至該液晶畫素進行影像的顯示。In addition, the present invention can be applied to a color liquid crystal display device or a general liquid crystal display device. Generally, the liquid crystal display device uses a timing controller and a display driving circuit to apply a voltage to the liquid crystal display panel to control the transmittance of each liquid crystal pixel. The backlight module requires another backlight driving circuit for backlight switching and brightness control. When implementing the multi-region backlight control method of the present invention, when a sub-optical switch needs to be turned off, the corresponding voltage is input through the display driving circuit to reduce the liquid crystal pixel transmittance, and when the sub-optical switch is not When it needs to be turned off, the display driving circuit displays the image according to the corresponding voltage input to the liquid crystal pixel.
綜合上述可知,本發明之多區域動態背光驅動之裝置及其方法係可利用光源之開啟與關閉、光開關單元之開啟與關閉的相互配合,以降低多個相鄰近背光光源之間的光場干擾效應,因此,使得來自背光模組中的各組背光光源在經由液晶單元後,可提供相對應之顯示區域以較接近目標亮度、色彩對比度、色彩飽和度的顯示效果進行影像的顯示,以使顯示影像中亮區與暗區的對比更為顯著,影像的立體感與真實度也同時可以獲得提昇。In summary, the multi-region dynamic backlight driving device and the method thereof can utilize the mutual opening and closing of the light source and the opening and closing of the optical switch unit to reduce the light field between the adjacent backlight sources. Interference effect, therefore, each group of backlight sources from the backlight module can provide a corresponding display area to display images with a display effect closer to the target brightness, color contrast, and color saturation after passing through the liquid crystal unit, The contrast between the bright area and the dark area in the displayed image is more prominent, and the stereoscopic and realism of the image can also be improved at the same time.
以上所述係藉由實施例說明本發明之特點,其目的在使熟習該技術者能暸解本發明之內容並據以實施,而非限定本發明之專利範圍,故,凡其他未脫離本發明所揭示之精神所完成之等效修飾或修改,仍應包含在以下所述之申請專利範圍中。The above description of the embodiments of the present invention is intended to be understood by those skilled in the art, and the invention may be practiced without departing from the scope of the invention.
