Description

背光驱动控制方法和系统
技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域，尤其涉及一种背光驱动控制方法和系统。
背景技术
目前，愈来愈多的LCD（Liquid Crystal Display，液晶显示器）彩电使用LED（Light Emitting Diode，发光二极管）的背光技术，使用LED背光技术的LCD彩电的优点是寿命长、省电节能、驱动方便。LED背光方案有两种：一种是直下式，由若干灯直接放在屏的下面；另一种是侧入式，若干灯分布在屏的周边，通过导光板将光均匀的导向LCD屏。上述两种LED背光方案都应用得很普遍，其中直下式有更多的优点，最主要的优点是可以实现Local Dimming（局部背光调节)功能。所谓Local Dimming，就是将屏后面的灯分成若干组，如32组、64组、128组，每组由若干灯组成串联方式，通常组数越多，分得越细，调光效果越好，每组灯的亮度由画面的亮度来决定，使得显示的效果更好，更节能省电。
普通的Local Dimming一般采用同时调节PWM（Pulse Width Modulation，脉冲宽度调制）和LED的基准电流的方式来做亮度调节，这就要求每一个驱动IC（Integrated Circuit，集成电路）的通道都必须能够同时调节基准电流和占空比，这样的话，每一个驱动IC的通道都要有数模转换器，因此导致驱动IC的制作成本很高。因此，现有的控制亮度的方式是用一个固定的最大电流，然后根据这个电流来调节PWM，但是，在使用这种方法的时候，在LED的电流增大时，相应的电压也会增大，那么LED灯的光效就会降低，不利于节能和增加显示画面对比度。

具体实施方式
应当理解，此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用以解释本发明，并不用于限定本发明。
本发明提供一种背光驱动控制方法。
参照图1，图1为本发明背光驱动控制方法第一实施例的流程示意图。
所述背光驱动控制方法应用于一具有液晶显示屏的显示终端中，所述显示终端包括微控制单元MCU及背光源，所述背光源中包括由LED灯形成的多个灯条和多个驱动IC，MCU与驱动IC电性连接，MCU用于将电信号发送给驱动IC，每个驱动IC控制一个或多个灯条。参照图8，图8为本发明实施例中Local Dimming驱动板的结构示意图。由所述图8可知，在所述Local Dimming驱动板中，由所述MCU（Micro Control Unit，微控制单元，又称单片微型计算机或者单片机）通过SPI（Serial Peripheral Interface，串行外设接口）总线接收机芯板发送的图像信号，当所述MCU接收到所述图像信息时，对所述图像信号进行解码，获取所述LED背光亮暗配置，通过所述驱动IC控制每个通道中每个所述LED灯的状态。在本发明中，所述MCU为LPC1113，但是所述MCU包括但不限于所述LPC1113；所述驱动IC为16通道的，图8中的CH1-CH16，表示所述驱动IC的第一通道至第十六通道。参照图9和图10，图9为本发明实施例中正向电压与正向电流的关系示意图，图10为本发明实施例中正向电流与LED灯的亮度值的关系示意图。由图9和图10可知，在发明中，经过所述Local Dimming驱动板中的正向电流随着正向电压的增大而增大，所述Local Dimming驱动板中LED灯的亮度值随着正向电流的增大而增大。
在本实施例中，所述背光驱动控制方法包括：
步骤S10，当所述MCU接收到各个LED灯的电信号时，解调各个所述LED灯的电信号，得到各个所述LED灯的亮度值；
目前的电视几乎都是使用液晶显示屏，在所述液晶显示屏的背光源中含有由LED灯组成的灯条和多个驱动IC，每个驱动IC中含有多个LED灯。进一步地，一根灯条或者多根灯条共用一个驱动IC。在所述液晶显示屏中，包含了负责解调机芯板Local Dimming的MCU和若干个驱动IC。基于MCU的Local Dimming主要由三部分组成，分别是FPGA（Field Programmable Gate Array，现场可编程逻辑门阵列）或SOC（System On Chip，芯片级系统）和LED驱动IC。当所述FPGA或所述SOC采集到显示画面的电信号时，通过SPI（Serial Peripheral Interface，串行外设接口）发送给所述MCU，其中，所述电信号为LED背光源中各个LED灯的PWM信号。当所述MCU接收到所述显示画面的各个LED灯的电信号时，解调各个所述LED灯的电信号，即解调所述PWM信号，对应得到各个所述LED灯的PWM占空比，根据各个所述LED灯的PWM占空比对应得到LED背光源中各个LED灯的基准电流值，即得到LED背光源中各个LED灯的亮度值。所述LED背光源中同一根灯条上的LED灯共用一个LED灯驱动IC，同一根灯条上的LED灯共阳极连接。所述LED灯的驱动IC一般是8通道或者是16通道的，每个通道对应着一个LED灯，所述8通道或者16通道的LED灯放置在一起。
步骤S20，将每个所述驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值；
所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到LED背光源中，每个所述驱动IC中LED灯亮度的最大值。如当所述LED背光源中一共有192个LED灯时，每8个LED灯共用一根灯条，一根灯条上的8个LED灯共阳极连接。当所述驱动IC是8通道时，一根灯条用一个驱动IC，一共需要24个驱动IC。所述MCU对比每一个驱动IC中的8个LED灯的亮度值的大小，将同一个驱动IC中亮度值最大的LED灯的亮度值作为这个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，从而得到24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值。
步骤S30，将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为若干亮度区间，并根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定各个亮度区间所对应的电流值，根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。
当所述MCU得到LED背光源中，每个所述驱动IC 中LED灯的亮度最大值时，将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值从小到大排列。所述MCU根据每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的大小情况将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为若干亮度区间。如当每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的比较紧凑时，所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为3个亮度区间，当每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的比较松散时，所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为5个亮度区间。所述MCU根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定各个亮度区间所对应的电流值，其中，所述预设电流值为所述MCU预先存储的不同亮度区间所对应的电流值。所述电流值和所述亮度区间的亮度值成正比例关系，即所述亮度区间中的亮度值越大，所述电流值也就越大。所述MCU根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度，即所述MCU根据不同亮度区间的电流值控制不同的驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。如所述MCU得到24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，将24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值按照从小到大排列，根据排列结果将所述24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值划分成3个亮度区间，即在24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值中选取最小的、中间的和最大的驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值作为所述亮度区间的分界值，得到第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度区间，所述第一亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值小于所述第二亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值，所述第二亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值小于所述第三亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值。所述MCU根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定所述第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度对应的电流值，所述第一亮度区间的电流值小于所述第二亮度区间的电流值，所述第二亮度区间的电流值小于所述第三亮度区间的电流值。所述MCU根据所述第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度的电流值控制24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。
所述Local Dimming驱动板中由数百个LED组成背光源，所述背光源代替CCFL（Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp，冷阴极荧光灯管）背光灯，背光的LED灯可根据图像的明暗进行调节，使显示画面中高亮的部分的亮度可以达到最大，而同时显示画面中黑暗的部分可以降低亮度，甚至关闭，以达到显示画面的最佳的对比，同时，暗区亮度的降低就降低了背光的功耗。
本实施例通过根据接收到各个LED灯的电信号得到各个LED灯的亮度值，根据每个驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值，得到每个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值划分成亮度区间，确定所述亮度区间所对应的电流值，根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。相对比现有的Local Dimming采用同时调节PWM占空比和LED基准电流的方式来进行亮度调节，本发明通过调节PWM占空比来调节LED基准电流的方式来进行亮度调节，实现了在不增加成本的条件下，提高了Local Dimming驱动节能效果和画面显示的对比度。
参照图2，图2为本发明实施例中所述将每个所述驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到每个所述驱动IC 中LED灯的亮度最大值的一种流程示意图。
在本实施例中，所述步骤S20包括：
步骤S21，将同一灯条上的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到同一灯条上的LED灯的亮度最大值；

本发明进一步提供一种背光驱动控制系统。
参照图4，图4为本发明背光驱动控制系统第一实施例的功能模块示意图。
所述背光驱动控制系统应用于一具有液晶显示屏的显示终端中，所述显示终端包括微控制单元MCU及背光源，所述背光源中包括由LED灯形成的多个灯条和多个驱动IC，MCU与驱动IC电性连接，MCU用于将电信号发送给驱动IC，每个驱动IC控制一个或多个灯条。参照图8，图8为本发明实施例中Local Dimming驱动板的结构示意图。由所述图8可知，在所述Local Dimming驱动板中，由所述MCU（Micro Control Unit，微控制单元，又称单片微型计算机或者单片机）通过SPI（Serial Peripheral Interface，串行外设接口）总线接收机芯板发送的图像信号，当所述MCU接收到所述图像信息时，对所述图像信号进行解码，获取所述LED背光亮暗配置，通过所述驱动IC控制每个通道中每个所述LED灯的状态。在本发明中，所述MCU为LPC1113，但是所述MCU包括但不限于所述LPC1113；所述驱动IC为16通道的，图8中的CH1-CH16，表示所述驱动IC的第一通道至第十六通道。参照图9和图10，图9为本发明实施例中正向电压与正向电流的关系示意图，图10为本发明实施例中正向电流与LED灯的亮度值的关系示意图。由图9和图10可知，在发明中，经过所述Local Dimming驱动板中的正向电流随着正向电压的增大而增大，所述Local Dimming驱动板中LED灯的亮度值随着正向电流的增大而增大。
在本实施例中，所述背光驱动控制系统包括：
解调模块10，用于当接收到各个LED灯的电信号时，解调各个所述LED灯的电信号，得到各个所述LED灯的亮度值；
目前的电视几乎都是使用液晶显示屏，在所述液晶显示屏的背光源中含有由LED灯组成的灯条和多个驱动IC，每个驱动IC中含有多个LED灯。进一步地，一根灯条或者多根灯条共用一个驱动IC。在所述液晶显示屏中，包含了负责解调机芯板Local Dimming的MCU和若干个驱动IC。基于MCU的Local Dimming主要由三部分组成，分别是FPGA（Field Programmable Gate Array，现场可编程逻辑门阵列）或SOC（System On Chip，芯片级系统）和LED驱动IC。当所述FPGA或所述SOC采集到显示画面的电信号时，通过SPI（Serial Peripheral Interface，串行外设接口）发送给所述MCU，其中，所述电信号为LED背光源中各个LED灯的PWM信号。当所述MCU接收到所述显示画面的各个LED灯的电信号时，解调各个所述LED灯的电信号，即解调所述PWM信号，对应得到各个所述LED灯的PWM占空比，根据各个所述LED灯的PWM占空比对应得到LED背光源中各个LED灯的基准电流值，即得到LED背光源中各个LED灯的亮度值。所述LED背光源中同一根灯条上的LED灯共用一个LED灯驱动IC，同一根灯条上的LED灯共阳极连接。所述LED灯的驱动IC一般是8通道或者是16通道的，每个通道对应着一个LED灯，所述8通道或者16通道的LED灯放置在一起。
对比模块20，用于将每个所述驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值；
所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值进行对比，得到LED背光源中，每个所述驱动IC中LED灯亮度的最大值。如当所述LED背光源中一共有192个LED灯时，每8个LED灯共用一根灯条，一根灯条上的8个LED灯共阳极连接。当所述驱动IC是8通道时，一根灯条用一个驱动IC，一共需要24个驱动IC。所述MCU对比每一个驱动IC中的8个LED灯的亮度值的大小，将同一个驱动IC中亮度值最大的LED灯的亮度值作为这个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，从而得到24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值。
控制模块30，用于将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为若干亮度区间，并根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定各个亮度区间所对应的电流值，根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。
当所述MCU得到LED背光源中，每个所述驱动IC 中LED灯的亮度最大值时，将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值从小到大排列。所述MCU根据每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的大小情况将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为若干亮度区间。如当每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的比较紧凑时，所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为3个亮度区间，当每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值排列的比较松散时，所述MCU将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值分为5个亮度区间。所述MCU根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定各个亮度区间所对应的电流值，其中，所述预设电流值为所述MCU预先存储的不同亮度区间所对应的电流值。所述电流值和所述亮度区间的亮度值成正比例关系，即所述亮度区间中的亮度值越大，所述电流值也就越大。所述MCU根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度，即所述MCU根据不同亮度区间的电流值控制不同的驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。如所述MCU得到24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，将24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值按照从小到大排列，根据排列结果将所述24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值划分成3个亮度区间，即在24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值中选取最小的、中间的和最大的驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值作为所述亮度区间的分界值，得到第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度区间，所述第一亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值小于所述第二亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值，所述第二亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值小于所述第三亮度区间的LED灯的亮度值。所述MCU根据各个亮度区间与预设电流值之间的映射关系确定所述第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度对应的电流值，所述第一亮度区间的电流值小于所述第二亮度区间的电流值，所述第二亮度区间的电流值小于所述第三亮度区间的电流值。所述MCU根据所述第一亮度区间、第二亮度区间和第三亮度的电流值控制24个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。
所述Local Dimming驱动板中由数百个LED组成背光源，所述背光源代替CCFL（Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp，冷阴极荧光灯管）背光灯，背光的LED灯可根据图像的明暗进行调节，使显示画面中高亮的部分的亮度可以达到最大，而同时显示画面中黑暗的部分可以降低亮度，甚至关闭，以达到显示画面的最佳的对比，同时，暗区亮度的降低就降低了背光的功耗。
本实施例通过根据接收到各个LED灯的电信号得到各个LED灯的亮度值，根据每个驱动IC中的各个LED灯的亮度值，得到每个驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，将每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值划分成亮度区间，确定所述亮度区间所对应的电流值，根据所述电流值控制所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度。相对比现有的Local Dimming采用同时调节PWM占空比和LED基准电流的方式来进行亮度调节，本发明通过调节PWM占空比来调节LED基准电流的方式来进行亮度调节，实现了在不增加成本的条件下，提高了Local Dimming驱动节能效果和画面显示的对比度。

当所述MCU得到同一灯条上的LED灯的最大值的时，将一个驱动IC上的两根灯条上的LED灯的亮度最大值进行对比，将共用驱动IC的两根灯条中的亮度最大值大的作为所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值，以得到每个所述驱动IC中LED灯的亮度最大值。具体地，参照图7，图7为本发明中LED背光源中LED灯的一种排列方式的示意图，在所述图7中，所述LED背光源中一共有192个LED灯，将每8个LED灯共用一根灯条，一根灯条上的8个LED灯共阳极连接，一排用2根灯条，一排有16个LED灯，整个LED背光源有12排的灯条，每两根灯条共用一个驱动IC，可以是上下两根灯条共用一个驱动IC，也可以是左右两根灯条共用一个驱动IC。所述LED背光源中LED灯的排列方式并不限制于图7所示的排列方式。
