图 2是本发明实施例的有机发光显示器半衰期寿命的延长方法的流程图。 具体实施方式 为了更好地阐述本发明所采取的技术手段及其效果, 以下结合本发明的实 施例及其附图进行详细描述, 其中, 相同的标号始终表示相同的部件。 图 1是本发明实施例的有机发光显示器的示意图。 参阅图 1, ,有机发光显示器 1包括: 开机侦测单元 10、测试画面产生单元 20、 时序控制单元 30、 电流增加单元 40、 电源电路 50、 选择单元 60、 正常画 面信号输入端 100及有机发光显示面板 70, 其中, 电流增加单元 40可包括电 流侦测单元 41和半衰期控制单元 42。本实施例中的选择单元 60是可以接收不 同的控制信号的控制而允许不同的画面信号通过, 时序控制单元 30根据通过 的不同的画面信号来驱动有机发光显示面板 70显示不同的画面, 二者的具体 作用将于以下体现。 详细地说, 开机侦测单元 10侦测到有机发光显示器 1开机时发出侦测开 机信号, 测试画面产生单元 20产生测试画面信号, 侦测开机信号控制选择单 元 60选择测试画面信号通过, 测试画面信号传送至时序控制单元 30, 时序控 制单元 30根据测试画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板 70显示测试画面。在测试 画面显示期间, 电流侦测单元 41侦测电源电路 50向有机发光显示面板 70提 供的实时电流, 并将实时电流与预定电流比较, 当实时电流低于预定电流时, 半衰期控制单元 42产生控制信号来改变电源电路 50产生的电压以增加实时电 流至预定电流, 增加至预定电流的实时电流寄存于半衰期控制单元 42中。 此 后, 测试画面消失, 正常画面信号输入端 100输入正常画面信号, 正常画面信 号控制选择单元 60选择正常画面信号通过, 正常画面信号传送至时序控制单 元 30, 时序控制单元 30根据正常画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板 70的同时, 半衰期控制单元 42将寄存的增加至预定电流的实时电流提供给有机发光显示 面板 70, 使得有机发光显示面板 70显示正常画面。 此处需要说明的是, 测试 画面出现的时间极短, 即由测试画面切换到正常画面的时间间隔极短, 因此测 试画面的出现是不会被用户察觉的。 需要注意地是, 本实施例中的预定电流是使有机发光显示面板 70 的显示 亮度正常时的电流。 当侦测到的实时电流低于预定电流时, 有机发光显示面板 70的显示亮度将会下降。 此外, 在本实施例中, 有机发光显示器 1还可包括计时单元 80, 其作用是 在有机发光显示器 1长时间显示正常画面时显示亮度下降, 即实时电流低于预 定电流时重新校正实时电流。 以下将详细叙述计时单元 80的作用。 当有机发光显示器 1长时间显示正常画面时, 计时单元 80计时至预定时 间时产生时间信号, 该时间信号中断正常画面信号对选择单元 60 的控制, 而 后该时间信号控制选择单元 60选择测试画面信号通过, 测试画面信号传送至 时序控制单元 30, 时序控制单元 30根据测试画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板 70显示测试画面。 在测试画面显示期间, 电流侦测单元 41侦测到电源电路 50 向有机发光显示面板 70提供的实时电流低于预定电流时, 半衰期控制单元 42 产生控制信号来改变电源电路 50产生的电压以增加实时电流至预定电流, 增 加至预定电流的实时电流寄存于半衰期控制单元 42中。 此后, 测试画面消失, 正常画面信号输入端 100输入正常画面信号, 正常画面信号重新控制选择单元 60选择正常画面信号通过, 时序控制单元 30根据正常画面信号驱动有机发光 显示面板 70的同时, 半衰期控制单元 42将寄存的增加至预定电流的实时电流 提供给有机发光显示面板 70, 使得有机发光显示面板 70显示正常画面。 另外,在本实施例中,有机发光显示器 1还可包括外部控制信号输入端 90, 其作用也是校正实时电流。 在有机发光显示器 1显示正常画面时, 有机发光显 示面板 70的亮度下降, 即提供给有机发光显示面板 70的实时电流低于预定电 流, 外部控制信号输入端 90输入外部控制信号, 外部控制信号中断正常画面 信号对选择单元 60的控制, 而后外部控制信号控制选择单元 60选择测试画面 信号通过, 测试画面信号传送至时序控制单元 30, 时序控制单元 30根据测试 画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板 70显示测试画面。 在测试画面显示期间, 电 流侦测单元 41侦测到电源电路 50向有机发光显示面板 70提供的实时电流低 于预定电流时, 半衰期控制单元 42产生控制信号来改变电源电路 50产生的电 压以增加实时电流至预定电流, 增加至预定电流的实时电流寄存于半衰期控制 单元 42中。 此后, 测试画面消失, 正常画面信号输入端 100输入正常画面信 号, 正常画面信号重新控制选择单元 60选择正常画面信号通过, 时序控制单 元 30根据正常画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板 70的同时,半衰期控制单元 42 将寄存的增加至预定电流的实时电流提供给有机发光显示面板 70,使得有机发 光显示面板 70显示正常画面。 相对应地, 还提供了一种有机发光显示器的半衰期寿命的延长方法, 该方 法包括:
S1 : 侦测到有机发光显示器开机时发出侦测开机信号; S2: 产生测试画面信号;
S3: 侦测开机信号控制选择单元选择测试画面信号通过; S4: 根据测试画面信号驱动有机发光显示面板显示测试画面;
S5 :侦测由电源电路提供给有机发光显示面板的实时电流并将侦测到的实 时电流与预定电流比较;
S6: 当实时电流低于预定电流时, 增加实时电流至预定电流并寄存增加至 预定电流的实时电流;
S7: 正常画面信号控制选择单元选择正常画面信号通过, 根据正常画面信 号驱动有机发光显示面板, 同时将寄存的增加至预定电流的实时电流提供给有 机发光显示面板, 使得有机发光显示面板显示正常画面。 此外, 在歩骤 S7中, 当有机发光显示面板显示正常画面时, 可通过有机 发光显示器的计时单元计时至预定时间时产生的时间信号控制选择单元选择 测试画面信号通过, 而后返回歩骤 S4。 同样地, 在歩骤 S7中, 当有机发光显示面板显示正常画面时, 还可通过 有机发光显示器的外部信号输入端输入的外部控制信号控制选择单元选择测 试画面信号通过, 而后返回歩骤 S4。 另外, 开机侦测单元 10、 测试画面产生单元 20、 时序控制单元 30、 电流 增加单元 40、 电源电路 50、 选择单元 60、 正常画面信号输入端 100、 计时单 元 80及外部控制信号输入端 90形成有机发光显示器 1的驱动电路, 该驱动电 路用于驱动有机发光显示面板 70显示画面, 各个单元的功能作用已于上被详 细描述, 在此不再赘述。 综上所述,通过改变有机发光显示器的电源电路产生的电压以增加提供给 有机发光显示面板的实时电流至预定电流, 则可延长该有机发光显示器的半衰 期寿命的时间, 也就是延长了有机发光显示器的寿命。
虽然本发明是参照其示例性的实施例被具体描述和显示的, 但是本领域的 普通技术人员应该理解, 在不脱离由权利要求限定的本发明的精神和范围的情 况下, 可以对其进行形式和细节的各种改变。
