具体实施方式
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
为了便于理解本公开实施例,下面先简单介绍显示装置的结构。
图1是相关技术中的一种显示装置的示意图。如图1所示,显示装置包括灯板11和显示驱动系统12。灯板11包括第一基板110和位于第一基板110的第一表面的多个发光单元111。
显示驱动系统12包括多个驱动IC121,多个驱动IC121位于第一基板110的第二表面。这里,第一表面和第二表面为第一基板110的相反的两个表面。在一些示例中,多个驱动IC121直接与第一基板的第二表面相连。在另一些示例中,多个驱动IC121阵列布置在第二基板上(该集成有驱动IC的第二基板可以被称为驱动板),通过第二基板与灯板11连接。
图2是图1所示显示装置的部分区域的俯视结构示意图。如图2所示,多个发光单元111阵列布置,形成发光单元阵列。每个发光单元111包括用于发出不同颜色光的发光器件1111。例如,每个发光单元111包括第一发光器件、第二发光器件和第三发光器件。其中,第一发光器件用于发蓝光,第二发光器件用于发红光,第三发光器件用于发绿光。
在本公开实施例中,发光器件1111为电流驱动器件。例如,发光器件1111为LED(Light Emitting Diode,发光二极管)芯片,例如迷你(mini)LED芯片或者微(micro)LED芯片。第一基板110为PCB(Printed Circuit Board,印刷电路板)或者其他类型的能够布信号线的基板,例如玻璃基板。显示装置为LED显示装置。
发光单元阵列被分为多个发光单元子阵列,图2中的虚线框表示其中一个 发光单元子阵列。该发光单元子阵列包括8行5列发光单元111。这里,发光单元子阵列是对发光单元阵列的一种虚拟划分。每个驱动IC与一个发光单元子阵列中的所有发光单元连接,用于驱动所连接的发光单元子阵列中的发光单元发光。
除了驱动IC之外,该显示驱动系统还包括与驱动IC连接的信号线,信号线用于向驱动IC提供相应的信号,进而控制灯板发光。
当显示驱动系统故障时,例如信号线故障和/或驱动IC故障时,至少部分发光单元将无法正常发光,导致显示装置显示异常。为此,本公开实施例提供了一种显示驱动系统,该显示驱动系统包括多个驱动单元。多个驱动单元均可以独立驱动灯板发光。并且,多个驱动单元中的至少两个驱动单元可以共同驱动灯板发光。这样,在显示阶段,当正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元中一部分(例如一个)驱动单元工作状态异常(工作状态异常的驱动单元可以被称为第一驱动单元)时,可以通过多个驱动单元中除了第一驱动单元之外的至少一个驱动单元驱动灯板(可以被称为第二驱动单元)发光,从而提高了显示装置工作的可靠性。
在本公开实施例中,多个驱动单元是指至少两个驱动单元。为了便于说明,下文中将以显示驱动系统包括两个驱动单元为例对本公开实施例进行说明。
下面结合附图对该显示驱动系统的结构和功能进行详细说明。如图3所示,该显示驱动系统300包括两个驱动单元310和控制单元320。其中,两个驱动单元310均与灯板连接,两个驱动单元310中的至少一个驱动单元310用于在显示阶段驱动灯板发光。在本公开实施例中,两个驱动单元310可以同时驱动灯板发光或者单独驱动灯板发光。控制单元320分别与两个驱动单元310连接,用于检测正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元310的工作状态。控制单元还用于在检测到第一驱动单元存在异常时,通过第二驱动单元驱动灯板发光,其中,第一驱动单元为正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元310中的一个驱动单元310,第二驱动单元为两个驱动单元310中除了第一驱动单元的另一个驱动单元310。
由于本公开实施例的显示驱动系统具有可以独立驱动灯板发光的两个驱动单元,所以当控制单元检测到正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元中的一个驱动单元存在异常时,可以通过不存在异常的另一个驱动单元驱动灯板发光,提高了显示驱动系统的可靠性。
在一种可能的实施方式中,两个驱动单元310同时驱动灯板发光,以使灯板显示目标画面。当两个驱动单元310同时驱动灯板发光时,两个驱动单元被配置为向目标画面对应的各个发光单元中的发光器件输出第一驱动电流,以驱动灯板的各个发光器件发光。
这种情况下,可以将各个发光单元的发光器件所需的电流按照设定比例分配给两个驱动单元310,两个驱动单元310按照各自对应的比例向各个发光器件输出第一驱动电流。
在一些示例中,该设定比例为1:1,即两个驱动单元310向目标发光器件输出的第一驱动电流的大小相同。这样,两个驱动单元310输出至目标发光器件的第一驱动电流为该目标发光器件所需电流的一半。
这另一些示例中,该设定比例也可以为1:1以外的其他比例,即两个驱动单元310向目标发光器件输出的第一驱动电流的大小不同。例如,该设定比例为3:7或者2:3等等。当设定比例为3:7时,一个驱动单元向目标发光器件输出的第一驱动电流为该目标发光器件所需电流的30%,另一个驱动单元向目标发光器件输出的第一驱动电流为该目标发光器件所需电流的70%。
这里,目标发光器件为灯板上的任一发光器件。
第二驱动单元被配置为在第一驱动单元的工作状态为异常状态时,向目标发光器件输出第二驱动电流,以驱动灯板显示该目标画面。其中,对于同一发光器件,第二驱动单元输出的第二驱动电流等于两个驱动单元输出的第一驱动电流之和。
需要说明的是,当驱动显示系统包括超过2个驱动单元时,第二驱动单元可以是一个或者多个,第二驱动单元可以包括正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元和未驱动灯板发光的驱动单元中的至少一种。
在显示驱动系统正常工作时,通过两个驱动单元共同驱动灯板发光。这样,当其中一个驱动单元的工作状态异常时,只需要将该异常的驱动单元停止工作,并将工作状态正常的另一个驱动单元输出的驱动电流增大,这样,灯板仍然可以按照两个驱动单元工作状态均正常时的状态发光。由于在将第一驱动单元切换到第二驱动单元的过程中,第二驱动单元始终驱动灯板发光,因此灯板的显示画面不会出现中断,有利于实现显示效果的无缝切换,进一步保证显示效果。
在一些示例中,两个驱动单元201中的至少一个还被配置为对输出至目标 发光器件的驱动电流进行调节,以对灯板的显示效果进行微调。例如,在保持一个驱动单元向目标发光器件输出的驱动电流大小不变的情况下,将一个驱动单元向目标发光器件输出的驱动电流增大或减小设定值。在每个驱动IC对应的电流调节粒度(即每次调节所能采用的最小调节量,例如,每个驱动IC对应的最大驱动电流的5%等)一定以及目标发光器件所需的电流最大值一定的情况下,两个驱动单元分别向目标发光器件输出驱动电流,可以增加目标发光器件的亮度的可调节等级,从而更加精细地调节灯板的显示效果。
在另一种可能的实施方式中,正在驱动灯板发光的驱动单元仅包括一个驱动单元310。也即是,在同一时刻,只有一个驱动单元310驱动灯板发光。此时,该驱动单元310被配置为向目标画面对应的各个发光单元中的发光器件输出第一驱动电流,以驱动灯板显示目标画面。第二驱动单元被配置为在第一驱动单元(即该正在工作的驱动单元)的工作状态为异常状态时,向目标画面对应的各个发光单元中的发光器件输出第二驱动电流,向同一发光器件输出的第二驱动电流等于第一驱动电流。
在该实施方式中,在第一驱动单元存在异常时,通过第二驱动单元驱动灯板发光,这样,能够使得灯板快速恢复显示,无需等到对第一驱动单元进行维修之后才能正常发光。
下面结合图4对本公开实施例提供的显示驱动系统的结构进行说明。每个驱动单元310包括多个驱动IC311,每个驱动IC311用于驱动一个发光单元子阵列中的发光单元111发光。对于任一发光单元子阵列,每个驱动单元310中均存在一个对应的驱动IC311,也即是每个发光单元阵列与分别属于不同的驱动单元310的两个驱动IC311连接。
在本公开实施例中,每个驱动单元310均包括多个驱动IC组,每个驱动IC组包括沿第一方向x排列的多个驱动IC311,两个驱动单元的驱动IC组在第二方向y上交替布置。这样,可以将驱动同一个发光单元子阵列的两个驱动IC311布置在对应的发光单元子阵列附近,方便布线。
例如,如图4所示,一个驱动单元包括驱动IC1~驱动IC30;另一个驱动单元包括驱动IC1’~驱动IC30’。其中,驱动IC1~驱动IC5、驱动IC6~驱动IC10、驱动IC11~驱动IC15、驱动IC16~驱动IC20、驱动IC21~驱动IC25以及驱动IC26~驱动IC30分别为一个驱动IC组;同样的,驱动IC1’~驱动IC5’、驱动IC6’~驱 动IC10’、驱动IC11’~驱动IC15’、驱动IC16’~驱动IC20’、驱动IC21’~驱动IC25’以及驱动IC26’~驱动IC30’分别为一个驱动IC组。同一个驱动IC组中的5个驱动IC沿左右方向排列,两个驱动单元的所有驱动IC组在上下方向上交替布置。
驱动单元还包括多根信号线,每个驱动IC与至少一根信号线连接。这多根信号线包括控制线、数据线和电源线中的至少一种。其中,控制线包括但不限于时钟(DCLK)信号线、时钟数据锁存(LE)信号线和换行(ROW)信号线等。每种信号线的数量根据实际需要布置,本公开对此不做限制,可以设置为一根或者多根。
在一些示例中,可以将基板的第二表面划分为沿第二方向排列的至少两个区域,每个区域内设置有两组信号线和多个驱动IC,每组信号线与属于一个驱动单元的多个驱动IC连接。例如,如图4所示,将基板的第二表面划分为沿第二方向划分排列的两个区域,驱动单元A的驱动IC1~驱动IC15以及驱动单元B的驱动IC1’~驱动IC15’位于一个区域;驱动单元A的驱动IC16~驱动IC30以及驱动单元B的驱动IC16’~驱动IC30’位于另一个区域。其中,驱动IC1~驱动IC15、驱动IC1’~驱动IC15’、驱动IC16~驱动IC30以及驱动IC16’~驱动IC30’分别与一组信号线连接。
随着显示装置的显示面积的增大,每个驱动单元所包含的驱动IC的数量也会随之增大,如果通过一组信号线与一个驱动单元中的所有驱动IC连接,受到传输距离的限制,信号在对应的信号线中的传输将无法满足性能需求,进而影响显示效果。因此,在本公开实施例中,通过将每个区域中属于同一个驱动单元的的多个驱动IC与一组信号线连接,可以缩短信号线的长度,使得信号在对应的信号线中能够正常传输。
再次参考图4,由于每组信号线连接多个驱动IC组中的驱动IC,且每组信号线连接多个驱动IC组沿第二方向间隔布置,为了方便信号线的布线,信号线呈Z字形走线。例如,如图4中箭头所示方向,驱动IC1~驱动IC15对应的信号线先从左向右延伸,然后向下延伸一段后再从右向左延伸,然后向下延伸一段后再从左向延伸。
如前所述,每个驱动IC与对应的发光单元子阵列中的各个发光单元连接。下面对每个驱动IC与对应的发光单元的连接方式进行介绍。
图5是本公开实施例提供的驱动IC与信号线以及发光单元的连接关系示意 图。图5中以发光单元为LED灯珠为例进行了说明。一个发光单元包括3个发光器件,每行发光单元的发光器件的第一极(例如阳极)均灯板上的开关电路连接。该开关电路用于控制发光单元阵列的按照行扫描的方式工作。该开关电路包括多个开关器件,每个开关器件与一行发光单元的各个发光器件的第一极连接。当开关器件导通时,该行发光器件可以被点亮。示例性地,该开关器件为晶体管。晶体管的控制极与扫描信号线连接,晶体管的第一极与电源信号线连接,晶体管的第二极与一行发光单元中的发光器件连接。
如图5所示,每个驱动IC311具有多个输入引脚和多个输出引脚。其中,每个输入引脚对应连接一根信号线。每个驱动IC311分别与多根控制线连接,并且,多个驱动IC通过一根数据线串接。数据线用于传输串行数据,驱动IC根据配置信息获取串行数据中对应位置的数据,从而得到该驱动IC对应的图像数据。
由于一个发光单元包括3个发光器件,因此,图5中,驱动IC的3个输出引脚与一个发光单元连接。每个输出引脚用于与一个发光器件的第一极(例如阴极)连接。驱动IC311用于根据信号线输入的信号,从目标输出引脚输出驱动电流,以驱动该目标输出引脚所连接的发光器件发光。
示例性地,假设一个发光单元包括三个不同颜色的发光器件,每个驱动IC包括16个输出引脚,则每个发光单元可以与同一行发光单元中的相邻的5个发光单元中的发光器件(即15个发光器件)连接,剩下1个输出引脚可以空置。当显示驱动系统通过分区扫描的方式驱动灯板发光时,假设每个驱动IC对应8次扫描,则每个驱动IC可以同时与8行发光单元中对应的5个发光单元中的发光器件连接,这样,每个驱动IC可以用于驱动一个8行5列的发光单元子阵列发光。
在本公开实施例中,控制单元320与至少一根信号线连接,例如与所有信号线连接,用于根据每根信号线上的信号的状态信息确定正在工作的驱动单元的工作状态。示例性地,信号的状态信息用于指示该信号线上的信号是否存在异常。如果信号线上的信号存在异常,则表示对应的驱动单元的工作状态为异常状态。如果信号线上的信号不存在异常,则表示对应的驱动单元的工作状态为正常状态。
示例性地,控制单元320可以采用以下方式中的至少一种确定信号线上的 信号是否存在异常:
方式一、信号的电平状态无变化的时长是否超过第一设定时长;如果信号的电平状态无变化的时长超过第一设定时长,则表示信号存在异常;如果信号的电平状态无变化的时长未超过第一设定时长,则表示信号不存在异常。
方式二、信号线上未传输电平信号的时长超过第二设定时长;如果未传输电平信号的时长超过第一设定时长,则表示信号存在异常;如果未传输电平信号的时长未超过第一设定时长,则表示信号不存在异常。
方式三、信号线传输的信号的跳变幅值超过跳变幅值阈值;如果信号的跳变幅值超过跳变幅值阈值,则表示信号存在异常;如果信号的跳变幅值未超过跳变幅值阈值,则表示信号不存在异常。
方式四、信号线传输的信号幅值超过幅值阈值;如果信号的幅值超过幅值阈值,则表示信号存在异常;如果信号的幅值未超过幅值阈值,则表示信号不存在异常
其中,第一设定时长和第二设定时长可以根据实际需要设置,本公开对此不做限制。
在本公开实施例中,驱动单元310、控制单元320、信号线330均位于同一基板上。示例性地,控制单元320可以采用单片机、MCU(Microcontroller Unit,微控制器)、CPLD(Complex Programmable Logic Device,复杂可编程逻辑器件)或者FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array,现场可编程门阵列)等实现,本公开对此不做限制。
图6为本公开实施例提供的另一种驱动显示系统的结构示意图。如图6所示,该显示驱动系统还包括两个直流-直流(DC-DC)转换模块340,分别用于为对应的一个驱动单元310供电。DC-DC转换模块340的控制端(又称使能端)与控制单元320连接。在显示阶段,控制单元320控制两个DC-DC转换模块工作,使得两个驱动单元310均驱动灯板发光。当控制单元320检测到第一驱动单元的工作状态为异常状态时,控制第一驱动单元对应的DC-DC转换模块340停止工作,从而使得第一驱动单元停止工作。同时保持另一个DC-DC转换模块340为第二驱动单元供电。并且,控制单元320将故障信息反馈给系统控制器件(例如系统控制板卡),使得系统控制器件调整发送给第二驱动单元的数据信号,使得第二驱动单元中的驱动IC能够向目标发光器件增大驱动电流。这样, 完成从两个驱动单元共同驱动灯板发光到由第二驱动单元驱动灯板发光的切换。
其中,故障信息包括但不限于故障时间、故障内容和故障位置。其中故障时间用于指示检测到故障的时间,故障内容可以用于指示信号线上信号的异常类型(例如信号电平无变化的时长超过第一设定时长、无信号时长超过第二设定时长等),故障位置用于指示故障的驱动单元。
在一些示例中,显示驱动系统还包括缓冲逻辑单元350,该缓冲逻辑单元350、驱动单元310和控制单元320也位于同一基板上。该缓冲逻辑单元310一方面与系统控制器件连接,另一方面通过信号线330与控制单元320和驱动单元310连接,从而能够在系统控制器件与控制单元310和驱动单元320之间起到信号电平转换和/或数据缓冲等作用。
在本公开实施例中,该显示驱动系统还可以用于在故障检测阶段驱动灯板进行显示,以便在显示驱动系统存在故障时对故障进行定位。
在一种可能的实现方式中,两个驱动单元中的一个驱动单元被配置为在故障检测阶段,驱动多个发光单元中第一颜色对应的发光器件发光;两个驱动单元中的另一个驱动单元被配置为在该故障检测阶段,驱动所述多个发光单元中第二颜色对应的发光器件发光。其中,第一颜色和第二颜色不同。
这里,每个发光单元中,第一颜色对应的发光器件可以为一个;每个发光单元中第二颜色对应的发光器件也为一个。例如,第一颜色为红色,第二颜色为蓝色;又例如,第一颜色为蓝色,第二颜色为绿色。
在故障检测阶段,两个驱动单元分别驱动灯板的每个发光单元中不同颜色对应的发光器件发光,这样,每个发光单元均发出由第一颜色和第二颜色的光混合而成的光。根据灯板上各个发光单元发出的颜色,可以确定出显示驱动系统是否故障,以及在故障时的故障信息。该故障信息用于指示故障位置,故障位置包括但不限于故障的驱动单元和故障的驱动IC。
例如,如果每个发光单元均发出第一颜色和第二颜色的光混合而成的光,则表示显示驱动系统无故障。又例如,如果部分发光单元仅发出第一颜色的光,则表示这部分发光单元对应的用于驱动发光单元发出第二颜色的光的驱动IC故障。再例如,如果部分发光单元仅发出第二颜色的光,则表示这部分发光单元 对应的用于驱动发光单元发出第一颜色的光的驱动IC故障。
通过两个驱动单元在故障检测阶段同时驱动灯板发光,故障检测的效率较高。
在另一种可能的实施方式中,所述多个驱动单元中的一个驱动单元被配置为在故障检测阶段的第一时间段,驱动所述多个发光单元中第三颜色对应的发光器件发光,以及所述故障检测阶段的第二时间段,停止驱动所述多个发光单元中第三颜色对应的发光器件发光;所述多个驱动单元中的另一个驱动单元被配置为在所述第二时间段,驱动所述多个发光单元中第四颜色对应的发光器件发光。其中,第二时间段为第一时间段之后的一个时间段。
可选地,第三颜色和第四颜色可以相同或者不同。在一些示例中,第三颜色可以与单个发光器件发出的光的颜色相同,例如,红色、蓝色或者绿色;在另一些示例中,第三颜色可以与同一发光单元中的多个发光器件混合发出的光的颜色相同;例如第三颜色可以为紫色,可以由发红光的发光器件和发蓝光的发光器件发光混合得到。
实现时,系统控制板卡可以通过I2C总线(例如图5中的SCL线和SDA线)与控制单元320连接,通过I2C总线向控制单元320发送故障检测指令,该故障检测指令用于指示控制单元320进入故障检测阶段。当控制单元320接收到故障检测指令后,进入故障检测阶段。在故障检测阶段中,系统控制板卡通过发送卡和接收卡将需要显示的颜色对应的电压数据发送给驱动单元中的各个驱动IC,驱动IC根据该电压数据控制对应的发光器件发光。
需要说明的是,系统控制板卡也可以通过其他方式与控制单元连接,例如通过SPI(serial peripheral interface,同步串行接口)或者RS232与控制单元连接。
需要说民的是,对于显示驱动系统包括超过两个的驱动单元的情况,可以参照包括两个驱动单元的情况,本公开对此将不再详细描述。

示例性地,显示装置包括但不限于显示器以及手机、平板电脑、笔记本电 脑等具有显示功能的终端设备。
