Definitions
- the present invention is used for home electric appliances, automobiles, and motorcycle electric components, such as information display panels used in audio devices, instrument panels for automobiles, displays for displaying moving images and still images, and is configured using organic compounds.
- the present invention relates to a driving device and a driving method for an organic EL display. Background art
- organic EL devices have been actively researched and put into practical use. This involves depositing a hole transport material such as triphenyldiamine (TPD) on a transparent electrode (hole injecting electrode) such as tin-doped oxide (ITO) to form a thin film, and then forming an aluminum quinolinol complex (Alq 3).
- TPD triphenyldiamine
- ITO tin-doped oxide
- Alq 3 aluminum quinolinol complex
- This element has a basic structure in which a fluorescent material such as is laminated as a light-emitting layer and a metal electrode (electron injection electrode) with a small work function such as Mg is formed. Due to its extremely high luminance of 100000 O cd / m 2 , it has attracted attention as a display for home appliances, automobiles, and motorcycle electrical components.
- an organic layer such as a light-emitting layer usually has a scanning (common line) electrode serving as an electron injection electrode and a data (segment line) usually serving as a hole injection electrode (transparent electrode). It has a structure sandwiched between electrodes and formed on a transparent (glass) substrate.
- a display formed as a display dots are displayed by scanning electrodes and data electrodes arranged in a matrix, and a matrix display that displays information such as images and characters as an aggregate of these dots (pixels). And exist independently as indicators of predetermined shape and size.
- the display is roughly divided into a segment display for displaying an object.
- a switching element SW for driving (connecting to the ground side) the scanning line, and a resistor R (pull-up) for stabilizing the scanning line at a predetermined (power) potential when the switching element is in a rest state.
- a resistor R for stabilizing the scanning line at a predetermined (power) potential when the switching element is in a rest state. Resistance, switch ON resistance, etc.), a pixel D l, D 2, D 3..., And a capacitor connected in parallel to each pixel D l, D 2, D 3. .., And data lines (electrodes) (not shown) connected to the other ends of the pixels D 1, D 2, D 3. It can be considered that there is.
- each pixel as an organic EL element is equivalent to a diode D 1, D 2, D 3... As shown in the illustrated example, and further includes capacitor components C 1, C 2, C 3. Inherent. Therefore, when this is driven in a time-division manner, for example, when returning from the driving pulse Ton by the switching element as shown in FIG. 6, each of the capacitor components CI, C 2, C 3- The time constant given by R causes the delay time Td. This delay time Td overlaps with the drive pulse Ton of the next scan electrode, and depending on the data line conditions, the light is emitted for this delay time despite the non-selected pixels, and the contrast is increased. The light may worsen or be recognized as abnormal light emission.
- a quiescent period Toff is provided between the driving pulse and the next scan electrode driving pulse, and the lag period Td is absorbed by the quiescent period to prevent a decrease in contrast and abnormal light emission.
- the period Tr is a retrace time from the last scanning line n to the first scanning line 1.
- FIG. 8 there is a display in which a matrix section 31 and a segment section 32 are mixed.
- a display When such a display is driven, it is possible to drive each of them separately, but if a single driving means can drive the matrix section 31 and the segment section 32, a controller, a drive circuit, etc. Only one is required, and both can be driven efficiently with minimum hardware.
- the matrix section 31 and the segment section 32 are mixedly driven in a dynamic manner. In this case, one or more scanning lines are allocated to the segment portion, and each segment is selected by the data line.
- each display unit 32 a corresponding to one line of the segment portion is usually smaller than the total area of each pixel 31 a on one scan line of the matrix 31. Is much larger. This means that the above-mentioned delay time differs greatly between the two. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, when this is simply driven dynamically at an arbitrary position (the second line in the illustrated example), the delay time Td at the time of driving the segment section becomes large, and the next line When driving (in the example shown, the third line), the segment also emits light, which is recognized as an abnormal light emission phenomenon.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an organic EL display that can be driven with a simple configuration without causing a decrease in contrast or a false light emission phenomenon even when driving a display in which a matrix section and a segment section are mixed. It is to provide a driving device.
- the delay time due to the CR component in the drive circuit differs due to the difference in the area between the two. For this reason, if the pause time corresponding to the matrix is set, the delay time of the segment part is too long, and it is not possible to prevent a decrease in contrast or an abnormal light emission phenomenon. On the other hand, if the pause time is set to the delay time of the segment part, the pause time becomes too long, and it becomes practically difficult to dynamically drive the matrix part.
- the driving means for driving such a display usually requires some time for a feedback operation for driving the first drive line from the last drive line. This is a non-selection time during which neither the scanning line nor the data line is driven for a predetermined time as the feedback time. Therefore, by effectively utilizing the non-selection time as the pause time of the segment portion, it is possible to efficiently prevent a decrease in contrast and erroneous light emission.
- Not all driving means have a retrace time. Therefore, for those having no retrace time, one or more pseudo (dummy) scan lines may be set, and the period during which these scan lines are driven may be defined as the retrace period. During this retrace period, the data electrode is in the data off state.
