本發明相關於一種顯示器及相關驅動方法,尤指一種可主動調整驅動電壓之顯示器及相關驅動方法。The invention relates to a display and related driving method, in particular to a display capable of actively adjusting a driving voltage and a related driving method.
由於液晶顯示器(liquid crystal display)具有低輻射、體積小及低耗能等優點,已逐漸取代傳統的陰極射線管顯示器(cathode ray tube display),因而被廣泛地應用在筆記型電腦、個人數位助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、平面電視,或行動電話等資訊產品上。傳統液晶顯示器之方式是利用外部驅動晶片來驅動面板上的畫素以顯示影像,但為了減少元件數目並降低製造成本,近年來逐漸發展成將驅動電路結構直接製作於顯示面板上,例如將閘級驅動電路(gate driver)整合於液晶面板(Gate on Array,GOA)之技術。Liquid crystal display has been widely used in notebook computers and personal digital assistants because it has the advantages of low radiation, small size and low energy consumption. It has gradually replaced the traditional cathode ray tube display. (personal digital assistant, PDA), flat-screen TV, or mobile phone and other information products. The conventional liquid crystal display adopts an external driving chip to drive pixels on the panel to display images, but in order to reduce the number of components and reduce the manufacturing cost, in recent years, the driving circuit structure has been developed directly on the display panel, for example, the gate is The level driver is integrated into the technology of a liquid crystal panel (Gate on Array, GOA).
請參考第1圖,第1圖為先前技術中一液晶顯示器100之示意圖。如第1圖所示,液晶顯示器100包含一液晶顯示面板110,一源極驅動電路120,以及一閘極驅動電路130。液晶顯示器100之液晶顯示面板110上設有複數個呈陣列狀排列的畫素PX、複數條資料線D1 ~Dm ,以及複數條閘極線G1 ~Gn 。源極驅動電路120用來驅動資料線D1 ~Dm ,而閘極驅動電路130可提供輸出電壓V1 ~Vn 以分別驅動閘極線G1 ~Gn 。Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a liquid crystal display 100 in the prior art. As shown in FIG. 1, the liquid crystal display 100 includes a liquid crystal display panel 110, a source driving circuit 120, and a gate driving circuit 130. The liquid crystal display panel 110 of the liquid crystal display 100 is provided with a plurality of pixels PX arranged in an array, a plurality of data lines D 1 to D m , and a plurality of gate lines G 1 to G n . The source driving circuit 120 is used to drive the data lines D 1 -D m , and the gate driving circuit 130 can provide the output voltages V 1 VV n to drive the gate lines G 1 -G n , respectively .
請參考第2圖。第2圖為描述液晶顯示器操作特性之示意圖。在第2圖中,縱軸代表閘極驅動電路可正常操作面板的最小輸出電壓(伏特),橫軸代表使用時間(小時),液晶顯示器之操作溫度為攝氏85度,曲線A代表正閘極電壓Vgh=11V且負閘極電壓Vgl=-11V時的特性曲線,曲線B代表正閘極電壓Vgh=20V且負閘極電壓Vgl=-11V時的特性曲線。由於正常操作閘極驅動電路之最小輸出電壓會隨操作時間增加而逐漸變大,參見第2圖之曲線A,在正閘極電壓Vgh=11V的操作條件下,液晶顯示器在使用超過約250小時後,能夠正常操作閘極驅動電路之最小輸出電壓會超出此條件的理想閘極電壓(Vgh=11V),容易造成操作異常;如第2圖之曲線B所示,在正閘極電壓Vgh=20V的操作條件下,液晶顯示器即使在使用約800小時後,最小輸出電壓仍然維持在理想的電壓範圍內。因此,提高正閘極電壓Vgh能夠有效地拉長面板的使用時間。Please refer to Figure 2. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram showing the operational characteristics of a liquid crystal display. In Fig. 2, the vertical axis represents the minimum output voltage (volts) of the gate drive circuit that can operate the panel normally, the horizontal axis represents the usage time (hours), the operating temperature of the liquid crystal display is 85 degrees Celsius, and the curve A represents the positive gate. A characteristic curve when the voltage Vgh=11V and the negative gate voltage Vgl=-11V, and the curve B represents a characteristic curve when the positive gate voltage Vgh=20V and the negative gate voltage Vgl=-11V. Since the minimum output voltage of the normal operation gate drive circuit will gradually increase with the increase of the operation time, see curve A of Fig. 2, under the operating condition of the positive gate voltage Vgh=11V, the liquid crystal display is used for more than about 250 hours. After that, the minimum output voltage of the gate drive circuit can be operated normally beyond the ideal gate voltage (Vgh=11V) of this condition, which is easy to cause abnormal operation; as shown by curve B in Fig. 2, at the positive gate voltage Vgh= Under the operating conditions of 20V, the minimum output voltage of the liquid crystal display remains within the ideal voltage range even after about 800 hours of use. Therefore, increasing the positive gate voltage Vgh can effectively lengthen the use time of the panel.
請參考下列圖表一,圖表一說明了液晶顯示器在不同操作條件下之功率消耗。在圖表一中,T_stress代表施加偏壓的時間長短,unstress代表尚未施加偏壓。Vgh和Vgl分別代表正閘極電壓與負閘極電壓(V),Ih和Il分別代表施加 正閘極電壓Vgh和施加負閘極電壓Vg時之電流(mA),Ph和Pl分別代表施加正閘極電壓Vgh和施加負閘極電壓Vg時之功率消耗(mW),而P_sum代表總功率消耗(mW)。在T_stress相同的條件下比較總功率消耗P_sum,亦即比較條件一和條件二或比較條件三和條件四,可得知總功率消耗P_sum和正閘極電壓Vgh成正比。因此,提高正閘極電壓Vgh雖然能拉長使用時間,卻同時增加面板的功率消耗。Please refer to the following chart 1, which shows the power consumption of the liquid crystal display under different operating conditions. In Figure 1, T_stress represents the length of time the bias is applied, and unstress represents that no bias has been applied. Vgh and Vgl represent the positive gate voltage and the negative gate voltage (V), respectively, and Ih and Il represent the application, respectively. The positive gate voltage Vgh and the current (mA) when the negative gate voltage Vg is applied, Ph and Pl represent the power consumption (mW) when the positive gate voltage Vgh is applied and the negative gate voltage Vg is applied, respectively, and P_sum represents the total power. Consumption (mW). Comparing the total power consumption P_sum under the same conditions of T_stress, that is, comparing condition 1 and condition 2 or comparing condition 3 and condition 4, it can be known that the total power consumption P_sum is proportional to the positive gate voltage Vgh. Therefore, increasing the positive gate voltage Vgh can increase the use time while increasing the power consumption of the panel.

請再次參考圖表一,在偏壓相同的條件下比較總功率消耗P_sum,亦即比較條件一和條件三或比較條件二和條件四,可得知總功率消耗P_sum和施加偏壓的時間T_stress成反比。當T_stress超過一個特定值(例如500小時)後,在相同偏壓的條件下,總功率消耗P_sum約降為unstress時之一半(例如從115mV降至46.2mV或從202.9mV降至111.7mV)。本發明即利用此面板特性,在起始時以較低正閘極電壓Vgh來驅動面板,以節省功率消耗;當使用時間超過一預定值時,再以較高正閘極電壓Vgh來驅動面板,提升面板的使用壽命,同時亦不會大幅增加功率消耗。Referring again to the first chart, the total power consumption P_sum is compared under the same bias voltage, that is, the comparison condition 1 and the condition 3 or the comparison condition 2 and the condition 4, the total power consumption P_sum and the time T_stress applied are known. Inverse ratio. When T_stress exceeds a certain value (for example, 500 hours), the total power consumption P_sum is reduced to one-half of unstress (for example, from 115 mV to 46.2 mV or from 202.9 mV to 111.7 mV) under the same bias conditions. The invention utilizes the panel characteristic to drive the panel with a low positive gate voltage Vgh at the beginning to save power consumption; when the usage time exceeds a predetermined value, the panel is driven with a higher positive gate voltage Vgh. Increases the life of the panel without significantly increasing power consumption.
由於饋通穿透效應(feed-through)的作用,顯示面板的共同電壓(common voltage)Vcom亦會隨著正閘極電壓Vgh之值而改變。請參考下列圖表二,圖表二說明了共同電壓、正閘極電壓Vgh和施加偏壓的時間T_stress之間的關係。如圖表二所示,Vcom代表當unstress時之共同電壓, 共同電壓Vcom和正閘極電壓Vgh成反比;Vcom’代表當T_stress大於一個特定值(例如500小時)時之共同電壓,共同電壓Vcom’和正閘極電壓Vgh亦成反比。同時,當T_stress超過一個特定值(例如500小時)時,正閘極電壓Vgh需大於一個特定值(例如15V)才能正常地操作顯示面板。在正閘極電壓Vgh相同的條件下比較共同電壓之值,亦即比較Vcom和Vcom’,可得知Vcom和Vcom’之間差異不大。換而言之,施加偏壓的時間T_stress對共同電壓影響並不大,因此本發明僅需考慮正閘極電壓Vgh對共同電壓的影響:在起始時以較低正閘極電壓Vgh和較高共同電壓Vcom來驅動面板,以節省功率消耗;當使用時間超過一個預定值時,再以較高正閘極電壓Vgh和較低共同電壓Vcom來驅動面板,提升面板的使用壽命,同時亦不會大幅增加功率消耗,或是改變顯示面板的特性。Due to the feedthrough effect, the common voltage Vcom of the display panel also changes with the value of the positive gate voltage Vgh. Please refer to the following chart 2, which shows the relationship between the common voltage, the positive gate voltage Vgh and the time T_stress applied. As shown in Figure 2, Vcom represents the common voltage when unstressed. The common voltage Vcom is inversely proportional to the positive gate voltage Vgh; Vcom' represents a common voltage when T_stress is greater than a specific value (e.g., 500 hours), and the common voltage Vcom' and the positive gate voltage Vgh are also inversely proportional. Meanwhile, when T_stress exceeds a certain value (for example, 500 hours), the positive gate voltage Vgh needs to be larger than a specific value (for example, 15 V) to operate the display panel normally. Comparing the values of the common voltage under the condition that the positive gate voltage Vgh is the same, that is, comparing Vcom and Vcom', it can be known that there is little difference between Vcom and Vcom'. In other words, the time T_stress applied is not significant to the common voltage, so the present invention only needs to consider the effect of the positive gate voltage Vgh on the common voltage: at the beginning with a lower positive gate voltage Vgh and The high common voltage Vcom is used to drive the panel to save power consumption; when the usage time exceeds a predetermined value, the panel is driven by the higher positive gate voltage Vgh and the lower common voltage Vcom, thereby improving the service life of the panel without Will greatly increase the power consumption, or change the characteristics of the display panel.
請參考第3圖,第3圖為本發明中液晶顯示器500之示意圖。液晶顯示器500包含液晶顯示面板510,源極驅動電路520,閘極驅動電路530,以及閘極補償電路540。液晶顯示面板510上設有複數個呈陣列狀排列的畫素PX、複數條資料線D1 ~Dm ,以及複數條閘極線G1 ~Gn 。液晶顯示器500之源極驅動電路520。閘極驅動電路530係依據閘極輸入訊號Si來運作,閘極輸入訊號Si包含電壓訊號Vss、起始脈衝(start pulse)訊號Vst、時脈訊號Vck,以及反向時脈訊號Vxck等。依據閘極輸入訊號Si,閘極驅動電路530能以相對應之正閘極電壓Vgh和負閘極電壓Vgl來驅動閘極線G1 ~Gn ,此時閘極驅動電路530之輸出電壓分別由V1 ~Vn 來表示。閘極補償電路540可提供閘極輸入訊號Si給閘極驅動電路530以及提供閘極共同電壓Vcom至液晶顯示面板510,並依據閘極驅動電路530之輸出電壓來修正閘極輸入訊號Si和共同電壓Vcom之值,因此能以最佳偏壓來驅動液晶顯示面板510。Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic diagram of the liquid crystal display 500 of the present invention. The liquid crystal display 500 includes a liquid crystal display panel 510, a source driving circuit 520, a gate driving circuit 530, and a gate compensation circuit 540. The liquid crystal display panel 510 is provided with a plurality of pixels PX arranged in an array, a plurality of data lines D 1 to D m , and a plurality of gate lines G 1 to G n . The source driving circuit 520 of the liquid crystal display 500. The gate driving circuit 530 operates according to the gate input signal Si. The gate input signal Si includes a voltage signal Vss, a start pulse signal Vst, a clock signal Vck, and a reverse clock signal Vxck. The gate input signal based on Si, the gate driving circuit 530 can be a positive gate voltage Vgh and Vgl negative gate voltage to the corresponding gate driving electrode line 1 ~ G n G, the output voltage at this time the gate driving circuit 530, respectively, of It is represented by V 1 ~V n . The gate compensation circuit 540 can provide a gate input signal Si to the gate driving circuit 530 and a gate common voltage Vcom to the liquid crystal display panel 510, and correct the gate input signal Si and the common voltage according to the output voltage of the gate driving circuit 530. The value of the voltage Vcom can thus drive the liquid crystal display panel 510 with an optimum bias voltage.
當液晶顯示器500剛開始運作時,閘極驅動電路530係以預定正閘極電壓Vgh1和預定負閘極電壓Vg1來驅動閘極線G1~Gn。由於閘極驅動電路530之第n級輸出位於訊號傳遞路徑的末端,其輸出電壓通常最早開始不符合操作條件,因此本發明可依據閘極驅動電路530之第n級輸出電壓 Vn 來判斷液晶顯示器500在此種偏壓條件下是否能正常運作。舉例來說,若液晶顯示器500正常運作的條件下,閘極驅動電路530之每一級輸出電壓皆需大於參考電壓Vref ,本發明之閘極補償電路540會判斷第n級輸出電壓Vn 是否大於參考電壓Vref :若第n級輸出電壓Vn 大於參考電壓Vref ,在絕大部分的情況下閘極驅動電路530之其它級之輸出電壓也會大於參考電壓Vref ,此時會以預定偏壓條件下之正閘極電壓Vgh1、負閘極電壓Vgl和共同電壓Vcom1來驅動液晶顯示面板510。當液晶顯示器500使用超過一定時間後,其特性可能會衰退,此時若繼續以預定偏壓條件來驅動液晶顯示面板510,則可能無法達到預定的顯示品質。因此,若第n級輸出電壓Vn 不大於參考電壓Vref ,閘極補償電路540會提供相對應閘極輸入訊號Si,如此才能以較佳偏壓條件下之正閘極電壓Vgh2、負閘極電壓Vgl和共同電壓Vcom2來驅動液晶顯示面板510。換而言之,閘極補償電路540能夠依據閘極驅動電路530之輸出電壓來主動補償閘極輸入電壓Si,如此閘極驅動電路530能以相對應之正閘極電壓Vgh來驅動閘極線G1~Gn,以及提供相對應之共同電壓Vcom至液晶顯示面板510。When the liquid crystal display 500 is just starting to operate, the gate driving circuit 530 drives the gate lines G1 to Gn with a predetermined positive gate voltage Vgh1 and a predetermined negative gate voltage Vg1. Since the output of the nth stage of the gate driving circuit 530 is at the end of the signal transmission path, the output voltage of the gate driving circuit 530 usually does not meet the operating conditions at the earliest. Therefore, the present invention can determine the liquid crystal according to the nth output voltage V n of the gate driving circuit 530. Whether the display 500 is functioning properly under such bias conditions. For example, if the output voltage of each stage of the gate driving circuit 530 needs to be greater than the reference voltage V ref under the condition that the liquid crystal display 500 is normally operated, the gate compensation circuit 540 of the present invention determines whether the output voltage V n of the nth stage is Greater than the reference voltage V ref : if the nth stage output voltage V n is greater than the reference voltage V ref , in most cases the output voltage of the other stages of the gate drive circuit 530 will be greater than the reference voltage V ref , The positive gate voltage Vgh1, the negative gate voltage Vgl, and the common voltage Vcom1 under predetermined bias conditions drive the liquid crystal display panel 510. When the liquid crystal display 500 is used for more than a certain period of time, its characteristics may be degraded, and if the liquid crystal display panel 510 is continuously driven under a predetermined bias condition, the predetermined display quality may not be achieved. Therefore, if the nth stage output voltage Vn is not greater than the reference voltage Vref , the gate compensation circuit 540 provides a corresponding gate input signal Si, so that the positive gate voltage Vgh2 and the negative gate can be under a favorable bias condition. The pole voltage Vgl and the common voltage Vcom2 drive the liquid crystal display panel 510. In other words, the gate compensation circuit 540 can actively compensate the gate input voltage Si according to the output voltage of the gate driving circuit 530, so that the gate driving circuit 530 can drive the gate line with the corresponding positive gate voltage Vgh. G1~Gn, and providing a corresponding common voltage Vcom to the liquid crystal display panel 510.
如圖表一、圖表二和第2圖所示,前述實施例中Vgh2>Vgh1而Vcom2<Vcom1。亦即當液晶顯示器500的顯示品質達不到預定標準時,本發明以較高正閘極電壓Vgh和 較低共同電壓Vcom來驅動面板以提升面板的使用壽命,同時亦不會大幅增加功率消耗。As shown in the first table, the second diagram and the second diagram, in the foregoing embodiment, Vgh2>Vgh1 and Vcom2<Vcom1. That is, when the display quality of the liquid crystal display 500 does not reach a predetermined standard, the present invention has a high positive gate voltage Vgh and The lower common voltage Vcom drives the panel to increase the life of the panel without significantly increasing power consumption.

FIG. 5 is a functional block diagram of the voltage selector 50 in the first embodiment of the present invention. The voltage selector 50 of the first embodiment includes a comparator 58, an analog to digital converter (ADC) 60, a counter 62, and a voltage output circuit 64. The comparator 58 is coupled to the gate driving circuit 530 for comparing the potential of the reference voltage V ref and the output voltage V n : if the output voltage V n is greater than the reference voltage V ref , the comparator 58 outputs a high potential analog signal Va; If the output voltage V n is not greater than the reference voltage V ref, the comparator 58 outputs a low level analog signal V a. The analog-to-digital converter 60 is coupled to the comparator 58 to convert the analog signal V a into a digital signal V d : if the high-potential analog signal V a is received, the analog-to-digital converter 60 outputs a digital signal V having a logic 1 potential. d ; if the low potential analog signal Va is received, the analog digital converter 60 outputs a digital signal V d having a logic zero potential.

The multiplexer MUX1 and MUX2 can output the corresponding positive gate voltage and output common voltage according to the control signal Vt. For example, if the output count value Co is greater than the reference count value Ct, the multiplexer MUX1 outputs a positive gate voltage Vgh1 (eg, 11V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and outputs a common voltage Vcom1 (eg, 3.89V) to the liquid crystal. The display panel 510; if the output count value Co is not greater than the reference count value Ct, the multiplexer MUX1 outputs a positive gate voltage Vgh2 (eg, 20V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and outputs a common voltage Vcom2 (eg, 3.29V) to The liquid crystal display panel 510.
請參考第6圖,第6圖為本發明第一實施例之電壓選擇器50在運作時之時序圖。第6圖顯示了輸出電壓Vn 、數位訊號Vd 、正閘極電壓Vgh和共同電壓Vcom之波形。當輸 出電壓Vn 之值大於參考電壓Vref 時,計數器62開始計數,直到輸出電壓Vn 之值低於參考電壓Vref 為止,計算出之輸出計數值分別由Co1 、Co2 、Co3 ,...等來表示。在第6圖的實施例中,前三筆輸出電壓Vn1 ~Vn3 高於參考電壓Vref 之時間分別對應於輸出計數值Co1 ~Co3 ,其中輸出計數值Co1 和Co3 大於參考計數值Ct,而輸出計數值Co2 小於參考計數值Ct。由於Co1 >Ct,此時仍會以對應於輸出電壓Vn1 之正閘極電壓Vgh1和共同電壓Vcom1來驅動液晶顯示器。之後,輸出電壓Vn2 之波形偏離理想值,使得Co2 <Ct,此時本發明會選擇較佳之正閘極電壓Vgh2和共同電壓Vcom2來驅動液晶顯示器。在使用較佳驅動電壓後,輸出電壓Vn3 之波形回復正常,因此Co3 >Ct,此時本發明會繼續使用正閘極電壓Vgh2和共同電壓Vcom2來驅動液晶顯示器。Please refer to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a timing chart of the voltage selector 50 of the first embodiment of the present invention in operation. Figure 6 shows the waveforms of the output voltage V n , the digital signal V d , the positive gate voltage Vgh and the common voltage Vcom. When the value of the output voltage V n is greater than the reference voltage V ref , the counter 62 starts counting until the value of the output voltage V n is lower than the reference voltage V ref , and the calculated output count values are respectively C o1 , C o2 , C o3 . ,...etc. In the embodiment of FIG. 6, the times when the first three output voltages V n1 VV n3 are higher than the reference voltage V ref correspond to the output count values C o1 to C o3 , respectively, wherein the output count values C o1 and C o3 are greater than the reference. The value Ct is counted, and the output count value C o2 is smaller than the reference count value Ct. Since C o1 >Ct, the liquid crystal display is still driven at the positive gate voltage Vgh1 and the common voltage Vcom1 corresponding to the output voltage V n1 at this time. Thereafter, the waveform of the output voltage V n2 deviates from the ideal value such that C o2 < Ct, and the present invention selects the preferred positive gate voltage Vgh2 and the common voltage Vcom2 to drive the liquid crystal display. In the preferred use of the driving voltage waveform of the output voltage V n3 of the back to normal, so C o3> Ct, the present invention will continue to use this time a positive gate voltage and the common voltage Vcom2 Vgh2 to drive a liquid crystal display.
請參考第7圖,第7圖為本發明第二實施例中電壓選擇器50之功能方塊圖。第二實施例和第一實施例類似,不同之處在於第5圖中之第一實施例能提供Vgh1/Vgl/Vcom1和Vgh2/Vgl/Vcom2兩組不同偏壓條件,而第7圖中之第二實施例則能提供Vgh1/Vgl/Vcom1~Vghn/Vgl/Vcomn等n組不同偏壓條件。在第二實施例中,電壓輸出電路64之控制電路66同樣將輸出計數值Co和參考計數值Ct做比較,並輸出相對應之控制訊號Vt,多工器MUX1和MUX2則可依據控制訊號Vt輸出相對應之正閘極電壓和輸出共同電壓。舉 例來說,若輸出計數值Co大於參考計數值Ct,多工器MUX1會輸出正閘極電壓Vgh1(例如11V)至電壓準位轉移器56,以及輸出共同電壓Vcom1(例如3.89V)至液晶顯示面板510;在輸出計數值Co開始不大於參考計數值Ct時,多工器MUX1首先會輸出正閘極電壓Vgh2(例如13V)至電壓準位轉移器56,而多工器MUX2首先會輸出共同電壓Vcom2(例如3.72V)至液晶顯示面板510,再判斷此驅動條件是否已經足夠。若以正閘極電壓Vgh2和輸出共同電壓Vcom2來驅動仍無法讓輸出電壓Vn 大於參考電壓Vref ,輸出計數值Co依舊不大於參考計數值Ct時,此時多工器MUX1會輸出正閘極電壓Vgh3(例如15V)至電壓準位轉移器56,而多工器MUX2會輸出共同電壓Vcom3(例如3.53V)至液晶顯示面板510;若以正閘極電壓Vgh2和輸出共同電壓Vcom2來驅動時輸出電壓Vn 大於參考電壓Vref ,此時電壓選擇器50會繼續提供此偏壓條件,並定期執行前述判斷步驟。在以正閘極電壓Vgh3和輸出共同電壓Vcom3來驅動的情形下,若輸出電壓Vn 再度低於參考電壓Vref ,此時會再次變更偏壓條件,多工器MUX1輸出正閘極電壓Vgh4(例如20V)至電壓準位轉移器56,而多工器MUX2輸出共同電壓Vcom4(例如3.29V)至液晶顯示面板510。換而言之,本發明第二實施例可依據輸出電壓Vn 之值逐步改變偏壓之值,而非一次大幅改變偏壓值。Please refer to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram of the voltage selector 50 in the second embodiment of the present invention. The second embodiment is similar to the first embodiment except that the first embodiment in FIG. 5 can provide different bias conditions for Vgh1/Vgl/Vcom1 and Vgh2/Vgl/Vcom2, and FIG. 7 The second embodiment can provide n sets of different bias conditions such as Vgh1/Vgl/Vcom1~Vghn/Vgl/Vcomn. In the second embodiment, the control circuit 66 of the voltage output circuit 64 also compares the output count value Co with the reference count value Ct, and outputs a corresponding control signal Vt. The multiplexers MUX1 and MUX2 can be based on the control signal Vt. The output corresponds to the positive gate voltage and the output common voltage. For example, if the output count value Co is greater than the reference count value Ct, the multiplexer MUX1 outputs a positive gate voltage Vgh1 (eg, 11V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and outputs a common voltage Vcom1 (eg, 3.89V) to the liquid crystal. The display panel 510; when the output count value Co starts to be not greater than the reference count value Ct, the multiplexer MUX1 first outputs a positive gate voltage Vgh2 (for example, 13V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and the multiplexer MUX2 first outputs The common voltage Vcom2 (for example, 3.72V) is applied to the liquid crystal display panel 510, and it is judged whether or not the driving condition is sufficient. If the output voltage V n is greater than the reference voltage V ref by the positive gate voltage Vgh2 and the output common voltage Vcom2, and the output count value Co is still not greater than the reference count value Ct, the multiplexer MUX1 outputs a positive gate. The pole voltage Vgh3 (for example, 15V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and the multiplexer MUX2 outputs a common voltage Vcom3 (for example, 3.53V) to the liquid crystal display panel 510; if the positive gate voltage Vgh2 and the output common voltage Vcom2 are driven When the output voltage Vn is greater than the reference voltage Vref , the voltage selector 50 continues to provide the bias condition and periodically performs the aforementioned determining step. In the case of driving with the positive gate voltage Vgh3 and the output common voltage Vcom3, if the output voltage Vn is again lower than the reference voltage Vref , the bias condition is changed again, and the multiplexer MUX1 outputs the positive gate voltage Vgh4. (for example, 20V) to the voltage level shifter 56, and the multiplexer MUX2 outputs a common voltage Vcom4 (for example, 3.29V) to the liquid crystal display panel 510. In other words, the second embodiment of the present invention can gradually change the value of the bias voltage depending on the value of the output voltage V n instead of changing the bias voltage value a large amount.
請參考第8圖,第8圖為本發明第二實施例之電壓選擇器50在運作時之時序圖。第8圖顯示了輸出電壓Vn 、數位訊號Vd 、正閘極電壓Vgh和共同電壓Vcom之波形。當輸出電壓Vn 之值大於參考電壓Vref 時,計數器62開始計數,直到輸出電壓Vn 之值低於參考電壓Vref 為止,計算出之輸出計數值分別由Co1 、Co2 、Co3 、Co4 ,...等來表示。在第8圖的實施例中,前四筆輸出電壓Vn1 ~Vn4 高於參考電壓Vref 之時間分別對應於輸出計數值Co1 ~Co4 ,其中輸出計數值Co1 和Co4 大於參考計數值Ct,而輸出計數值Co2 和Co3 小於參考計數值Ct。由於Co1 >Ct,此時仍會以對應於輸出電壓Vn1 之正閘極電壓Vgh1和共同電壓Vcom1來驅動液晶顯示器。之後,輸出電壓Vn2 之波形偏離理想值,使得Co2 <Ct,此時本發明會選擇較佳之正閘極電壓Vgh2和共同電壓Vcom2來驅動液晶顯示器。在使用正閘極電壓Vgh2和共同電壓Vcom2後,輸出電壓Vn3 之波形仍偏離理想值,因此Co3 <Ct,此時本發明會再次選擇較佳之正閘極電壓Vgh3和共同電壓Vcom3來驅動液晶顯示器。在使用正閘極電壓Vgh3和共同電壓Vcom3後,輸出電壓Vn4 之波形回復正常,因此Co4 >Ct,此時本發明會繼續使用正閘極電壓Vgh3和共同電壓Vcom3來驅動液晶顯示器。Please refer to FIG. 8. FIG. 8 is a timing chart of the voltage selector 50 in operation of the second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 shows the waveforms of the output voltage V n , the digital signal V d , the positive gate voltage Vgh and the common voltage Vcom. When the value of the output voltage V n is greater than the reference voltage V ref , the counter 62 starts counting until the value of the output voltage V n is lower than the reference voltage V ref , and the calculated output count values are respectively C o1 , C o2 , C o3 . , C o4 , ..., etc. to represent. In the embodiment of FIG. 8, the times when the first four output voltages V n1 VV n4 are higher than the reference voltage V ref correspond to the output count values C o1 to C o4 , respectively, wherein the output count values C o1 and C o4 are greater than the reference. The value Ct is counted, and the output count values C o2 and C o3 are smaller than the reference count value Ct. Since C o1 >Ct, the liquid crystal display is still driven at the positive gate voltage Vgh1 and the common voltage Vcom1 corresponding to the output voltage V n1 at this time. Thereafter, the waveform of the output voltage V n2 deviates from the ideal value such that C o2 < Ct, and the present invention selects the preferred positive gate voltage Vgh2 and the common voltage Vcom2 to drive the liquid crystal display. After using a positive gate voltage and the common voltage Vcom2 Vgh2, the waveform of the output voltage V n3 still deviates from the ideal value, C o3 <Ct, the present invention will select the preferred case of a positive gate voltage and the common voltage Vgh3 again driven Vcom3 LCD Monitor. After using a positive gate voltage and the common voltage Vcom3 Vgh3, the waveform of the output voltage V n4 back to normal, so C o4> Ct, the present invention will continue to use this time a positive gate voltage and the common voltage Vcom3 Vgh3 to drive a liquid crystal display.

The gate driving circuits 531 and 532 operate according to the gate input signal Si, and the output voltages thereof are represented by Vl1 to Vln and Vr1 to Vrn, respectively. The liquid crystal display 550 of the present invention simultaneously judges whether or not it can operate normally under a predetermined bias condition in accordance with the nth-order output voltages Vln and Vrn of the gate driving circuits 531 and 532. For example, if one of the nth output voltages Vln and Vrn is not greater than the reference voltage V ref , the gate compensation circuit 540 provides a corresponding gate input signal Si to simultaneously change the driving conditions of the gate driving circuits 531 and 532 . .
