Description

TFT-LCD面板及其驱动方法 技术领域
本发明的实施例一种薄膜晶体管液晶显示器( Thin Film Transistor Liquid
Crystal Display, TFT-LCD ) 面板及其驱动方法。 背景技术
随着 TFT-LCD产业的发展, TFT-LCD产品的竟争日趋激烈, 业界通过 釆用新技术以降低产品的成本, 从而提高其产品在市场上的竟争力。 阵列 基板行驱动 (Gate Driver on Array, GOA)技术就是这些新技术的典型代表。 GOA技术是将栅极驱动单元集成于阵列基板上以形成 GOA单元, 从而可 以省掉外接栅极驱动电路(Gate Driver IC )部分, 从材料成本和工艺步骤 两个方面可以达到降低产品成本的目的。
在研究的过程中, 发明人发现现有 GOA技术中至少存在如下问题: 在面板驱动过程中, 不论是 GOA时钟信号还是数据线上的 (数据)信 号, 都是以方波的形式驱动的, 所以面板的逻辑功耗可以用下面的公式来 表示及计算:
P = ( 1/2 ) fCV2
其中, P表示功耗(power ), f表示时钟脉冲信号的频率, C表示电容 的大小, V表示脉冲信号高电平与低电平的差值。
从上述公式中可以看到, GOA部分的功耗在时钟脉冲信号高电平与低 电平确定的情况下, 与时钟脉冲信号的频率 f存在正比的关系。 例如, 面板 刷新频率由 60Hz驱动变为 120Hz驱动时, GOA部分的功耗将会增加一倍。 对于逻辑功耗有特定要求的面板, 这样的变化有时甚至会导致产品设计的 失败。
GOA技术由于釆用了 TFT工艺,相对于传统的覆晶薄膜( Chip On Film, COF ) 方式中釆用的互补金属氧化物半导体 ( Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, CMOS )工艺,除了面板的逻辑功耗会有一定程度的上升夕卜, GOA信号的延迟比 COF方式要大, 所以当面板的刷新频率要求提高时,无 法满足像素的充电率要求 t 发明内容
本发明的实施例所要解决的技术问题之一在于, 在高刷新频率下不会增 加面板逻辑功耗, 并满足像素充电率的要求。
本发明的一个实施例提供了一种薄膜晶体管液晶显示 ( TFT-LCD )面板, 包括: 由数行栅线和数列数据线交叉定义的数个子像素单元, 每行栅线连接 一个用于提供栅极驱动信号的驱动单元, 每列子像素单元的两侧分别设置有 为该列像素单元提供数据信号的第一数据线和第二数据线; 每列相邻的两个 子像素单元分别与所述第一数据线和第二数据线连接; 每两个驱动单元提供 相同的栅极驱动信号, 且其中一个驱动单元与奇数行栅线连接, 另一个驱动 单元与偶数行栅线连接。
例如,所述提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个驱动单元与相邻的栅线连接。 例如 , 与相邻栅线连接的两个驱动单元分别位于面板的两侧。
例如, 所述驱动单元为 GOA驱动单元。
本发明的另一个实施例提供了一种上述 TFT-LCD面板的驱动方法, 用 于对所述面板上的各子像素单元充电, 包括:
当栅极驱动信号到来时, 提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个驱动单元驱动 和与之相连接的两行栅线同时打开, 设置在每列子像素单元两侧的第一数据 线和第二数据线分别为与之相连接的子像素单元充电, 使得与所述两行栅线 相连接的子像素单元同时充电。
例如,所述提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个驱动单元与相邻的栅线连接。 例如, 所述驱动单元为 GOA驱动单元。
例如, 釆用上述实施例的技术方案后, 每列子像素单元的两侧分别设置 有为该列像素单元提供数据信号的第一数据线和第二数据线, 提供相同的栅 极驱动信号的两个驱动单元(例如 GOA驱动单元)连接两行栅线, 当栅极 驱动信号到来时, 上述两行栅线同时打开, 第一数据线和第二数据线分别为 与之相连接的子像素单元充电。 与只能为一行栅线相连接的子像素单元充电 的情形相比, 该 TFT-LCD面板不仅能够增加像素的充电时间以改善像素的 充电率, 还能够降低面板上时钟脉冲的频率以降低面板的逻辑功耗。 附图说明

如图 2所示, 在一个示例之中, 提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个 GOA 单元 25与相邻的栅线 24连接。与相邻栅线 24连接的两个 GOA单元 25分 别位于面板的两侧, 例如位于面板的显示区域外的周边区域之中。
由于提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个 GOA单元 25连接相邻两行栅线 24, 当栅极驱动信号到来时, 上述相邻两行栅线 24同时打开, 设置在每列 子像素单元两侧的第一数据线 22和第二数据线 23分别为与之相连接的子 像素单元充电, 使得与相邻两行栅线 24相连接的子像素单元同时充电。
例如, 当分辨率为 1440 xRGB χ 900的显示器工作在 120Hz的面板刷新 频率之下时, 对于逐行扫描技术中, 一行最大可用充电时间等于用周期除 以扫描行数, 即 1÷120÷900=9.25 ( μδ ); 相比之下, 本发明实施例提供的 TFT-LCD 面板可以同时驱动两行, 此时的最大可用充电时间为 1÷120÷(900÷2)=18.5 ( s ), 与逐行扫描相比增加了一倍, 面板上脉冲时钟 信号的频率为 1÷18.5=54000 ( Hz ), 与逐行扫描的 1÷9.25=108000 ( Hz )相 比下降了一倍, 因此, 釆用本发明实施例的技术方案, 不仅可以改善像素 的充电率, 还可以降低面板的逻辑功耗。
同时, 在釆用上述设计方案时, 如图 2所示, 每个 GOA单元 25在水平 方向空间不变的情况下, 垂直方向空间从原来的一个子像素单元高度变为 目前的两个子像素单元的高度, 所以上述 GOA单元 25的可用空间可以增 加为原来的 2 倍, 对于周边电路的设计, 比如公共电极、 时钟信号等都有 了更大的余地。
本发明实施例还提供一种 TFT-LCD面板的驱动方法, 用于对所述面板 上的各子像素单元充电, 该方法包括:
步骤 101、 当栅极驱动信号到来时, 提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个
GOA单元驱动与之相连接的两行栅线同时打开, 设置在每列子像素单元两 侧的第一数据线和第二数据线分别为与之相连接的子像素单元充电, 使得 与所述两行栅线相连接的子像素单元同时充电。
所述面板的驱动过程中, 重复上述步骤 101 , 随着逐步扫描的进行, 完 成对所述面板上所有子像素单元行的充电。 具体的过程参照上述实施例, 在此不再赘述。
通过当每一个栅极驱动信号到来时,将与两行栅线相连接的子像素单元 同时充电来改善像素的充电率并且降低面板的逻辑功耗。
进一步的, 在一个示例之中, 提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个 GOA单 元与相邻的栅线连接。
当栅极驱动信号到来时,提供相同的栅极驱动信号的两个 GOA单元 25 连接的相邻两行栅线 24同时打开, 每列子像素单元的两侧分别设置有为该 列像素单元提供数据信号的第一数据线 22和第二数据线 23分别为与之相 连接的子像素单元充电。 与只能为一行栅线相连接的子像素单元充电的情 况相比, 该实施例的 TFT-LCD面板不仅能够增加像素的充电时间以改善像 素的充电率, 还能够降低面板上时钟脉冲的频率以降低面板的逻辑功耗。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的具体实施方式, 但本发明的保护范围并不局 限于此, 任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本发明揭露的技术范围内, 可 轻易想到变化或替换, 都应涵盖在本发明的保护范围之内。 因此, 本发明 的保护范围应所述以权利要求的保护范围为准。
