以下结合本说明书的附图,对本申请的较佳实施方式予以进一步地详尽阐述。
实施例一
参阅图1和图2所示,本申请提供一种控制电路,控制电路包括采样模块1、切换模块2和工作电源3。工作电源3连接采样模块1和切换模块2,工作电源3为采样模块1和切换模块2供电。工作电源3为直流电源VCC,通过工作电源3的供电,保证采样模块1和切换模块2中的各种电子元件能够运转、正常工作,工作电源3的电压可以是5伏,也可以是12伏。采样模块1用于采集与脉冲宽度调制信号对应的电平信号,脉冲宽度调制信号也简称为PWM信号。切换模块2的一端连接采样模块1,另一端连接至少一组信号反馈端4,信号反馈端4包括至少两个反馈点。
这里需要说明的是,信号反馈端4可以有多个,不限于一个,比如两个或者三个等。并且,每组信号反馈端4中反馈点的数量也不限于两个,可以是三个以上。反馈点用于与发光单元5连接。一般来说,发光单元5一端连接反馈点,另一端连接背光 连接器负极6。通过切换模块2的接通,可以实现发光单元5的点亮或者关闭。发光单元5可以为LED(light-emitting diode,发光二极管),还可以是OLED(Organic Light-Emitting Diode,有机发光二极管),或者是AMOLED(Active-matrix organic light-emitting diode,有源矩阵有机发光二极管)等。
另外,本实施例中连接反馈点的发光单元5不限于一个,可以是多个发光单元5组成的灯串。切换模块2能够基于电平信号与预设阈值之间的关系在第一模式和第二模式之间切换;在第一模式下,切换模块2能够控制信号反馈端4内的各反馈点相互独立;各反馈点相互独立是指彼此之间的电流或者电压是分开的,各自拥有独立的流通线路。在第二模式下,切换模块2能够控制信号反馈端4内的各反馈点相互关联。相互关联可以理解为将各个反馈点连接在一起,公用一个流通线路。预设阈值可以理解为是对电平信号中电平的高低进行判断的依据。预设阈值的大小可以调整,一般预设阈值的范围在0.1%-10%之间。并且预设阈值可以是其中的具体值,也可以是范围值。例如预设阈值为5%时,以5%为界限,判断切换模块2是切换到第一模式还是第二模式。除此之外,预设阈值还可以是0.1%、0.3%、0.5%、1%、2%、3%、4%、6%、7%、8%、9%、10%等。
本实施例的技术方案中,工作电源3为采样模块1和切换模块2的运转提供电力,采样模块1将采集到的电平信号发送给切换模块2,其中,所述电平信号和脉冲宽度调制信号相对应。切换模块2能够依据驱动电平信号在第一模式和第二模式之间切换。在第一模式下,各个反馈点是相互独立的,此时连接每个反馈点的电流也是通过不同线路独立供给的。在第二模式下,两个反馈点会相互关联,此时,该两个反馈点连接在同一线路下。在低电平信号时,切换模块2切换到第二模式,相当于将两个低电流的线路合并到了一起,由此,增加了该线路中的电流量。通过电流的增加,电压的相对波动减小,发光二极管的亮度趋于稳定,亮度不会出现高低变化。由此本技术方案能够有效减少发光二极管的亮度闪烁。
参阅图3所示,为了有效完成切换模块2的切换工作。切换模块2包括至少一组恒流源子模块21和至少一组控制开关子模块22,恒流源子模块21、控制开关子模块22及信号反馈端4一一对应设置;其中,控制开关子模块22包括第一开关K1和第二开关K2;
恒流源子模块21包括至少两个恒流源,恒流源具有电源端、输入端和输出端,恒流源的输入端通过一条输入线路与采样模块1连接,恒流源的电源端通过一条电源 线路与工作电源3连接,恒流源的输出端通过一条反馈线路与信号反馈端4的一个反馈点连接;恒流源提供稳定的直流电流,通过稳定的直流电流发光单元5能够持续的被点亮,不会出现关闭、点亮到再关闭、再点亮的一个过程。在显示屏幕上,也就不会出现闪烁的条纹,从而能够更好的显示画面。恒流源的电源端包括电源正极和电源负极,电源正极连接工作电源3,电源负极接地。
在多条电源线路中:存在一条电源线路未设置第一开关K1,剩余其他电源线路设置第一开关K1;在信号反馈端4中,与各反馈点连接的各反馈线路通过第二开关连接;第二开关K2可以设置有一个,也可以设置有多个。在第二开关K2设置有多个时,多个第二开关K2连通各反馈线路。在没有设置第一开关K1的电源线路连接的恒流源中,工作电源3始终保持与其连接。这样在剩余其他电源线路中的第一开关K1断开的情况下,第二开关K2闭合,如此,恒流源子模块21中的恒流源均通过一条线路连通工作源。
具体地,切换模块2在工作过程中,第一模式下,第一开关K1闭合,第二开关K2断开,如果设置有多个第一开关K1和多个第二开关K2,则第一开关K1均处于闭合状态,第二开关K2均处于断开;第二模式中,第一开关K1断开,第二开关K2闭合。同样可知,如果设置有多个第一开关K1和多个第二开关K2,则第一开关K1均处于断开状态,第二开关K2均处于闭合状态。
在其中一个方面,恒流源子模块21设置有多个,多个恒流源子模块21之间并联设置,每一恒流源子模块21连接一组信号反馈端4。由此可知信号反馈端4设置有多个。并且控制开关子模块22也设置有多个,每一组恒流源连接一组控制开关子模块22。各组控制开关子模块22控制每组信号反馈端4和恒流源子模块21之间的连接状态。如图3所示,恒流源子模块21可以设置两个,但不限于此,也可设置更多个。
在其中一个方面,切换模块2还包括控制单元23,控制单元23连接控制开关子模块22,控制单元23用于控制第一开关K1的闭合或断开、以及第二开关K2的闭合或断开。控制单元23可以理解为MCU(Microcontroller Unit,微控制单元),MCU中设置有存储器,预设阈值可以保存在存储器中。MCU还包括处理器,在切换模块2工作时,处理器调取存储器中保存的预设阈值,处理器将接收到的PWM信号中的占空比(Duty Ratio)和存储器中的预设阈值进行对比,依据两者之间的大小对比结果进行后续控制作业。该PWM信号中的占空比和采样模块1采集到的电平信号是相对 应的。其中,占空比是在一个脉冲信号周期内通电时间和总时间的比值。可以知道的是,占空比越低,通电的时间越短。采样模块1采集到的电平信号是占空比转化而来。占空比低时,电平信号就是低电平,占空比高时,电平信号就是高电平。
在其中一个方面,恒流源包括第一运算放大器U1、第一场效应管Q1和第一电阻R1,第一运算放大器U1的电源正极连接工作电源3,第一运算放大器U1的电源负极接地,第一运算放大器U1的信号输入正极连接采样模块1,第一运算放大器U1的信号输入负极连接第一电阻R1,第一电阻R1的另一端接地,第一运算放大器U1的信号输出端连接第一场效应管Q1,第一场效应管Q1的一端连接第一电阻R1,第一场效应管Q1的另一端连接一个反馈点。
举例说明,比如说,恒流源子模块21设置有两个,其中一个恒流源子模块21包括有两个恒流源,一个恒流源中包括第一运算放大器U1和第一场效应管Q1,第一运算放大器U1和第一场效应管Q1的一端均连接第一电阻R1。另一个恒流源中包括第三运算放大器U3和第三场效应管Q3,第三运算放大器U3和第三场效应管Q3的一端均连接第四电阻R4。在第一开关K1闭合,第二开关K2打开时,这两个恒流源是并联的。另外一个恒流源子模块21也包括有两个恒流源,一个恒流源中包括第四运算放大器U4和第四场效应管Q4,第四运算放大器U4和第四场效应管Q4的一端均连接第五电阻R5。另一个恒流源中包括第五运算放大器U5和第五场效应管Q5,第五运算放大器U5和第五场效应管Q5的一端均连接第六电阻R6。一般情况下,第一电阻R1、第四电阻R4、第五电阻R5和第六电阻R6的阻值大小相等。另外,恒流源子模块21还并联一个第七电阻R7,第七电阻R7的阻值也可以等于第一电阻R1的阻值。其中场效应管可以理解为MOS管,是MOSFET的缩写。MOSFE金属-氧化物半导体场效应晶体管,简称金氧半场效晶体管(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,MOSFET)。一般是金属(metal)-氧化物(oxide)-半导体(semiconductor)场效应晶体管,或者称是金属-绝缘体(insulator)-半导体。G:gate栅极;S:source源极;D:drain漏极。MOS管的source(源极)和drain(漏极)是可以对调的。
在其中一个方面,采样模块1包括第二运算放大器U2、第一采样点A和第二采样点B,第一采样点A连接第二运算放大器U2的信号输入正极,第二采样点B连接第二运算放大器U2的信号输入负极,第二运算放大器U2的信号输入负极和第二采样点B之间设置第二场效应管Q2。场效应管在本实施例中相当于一个开关,在低电 平时,第二场效应管Q2是断开的,在高电平时,第二场效应管Q2是导通的。由此可知,在低电平时,第二场效应管Q2是断开。进一步地,采样模块1还包括第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3,第二场效应管Q2的一端连接第二电阻R2,第二电阻R2的另一端接地;第三电阻R3的一端连接第二运算放大器U2的信号输入负极,第三电阻R3的另一端接地,第二场效应管Q2和第二电阻R2组成的线路与第三电阻R3并联。低电平时,第二场效应管Q2断开,电流流经第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3,第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3串联电阻变大,可知流向第二运算放大器U2的电流变小。在高电平时,第二场效应管Q2闭合,电流流经第二场效应管Q2,此时,第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3并联,电阻变小。可知流向第二运算放大器U2的电流变大。其中,运算放大器的信号输入正极可以理解为正相输入端,运算放大器的信号输入负极也可以理解为反相输入端。
进一步地,为了保证第二场效应管Q2和第二电阻R2组成的线路与第三电阻R3的线路的电流相同,第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3的阻值可以相等,第二电阻R2和第三电阻R3的阻值为60.4kΩ。另外,在采样模块1中还包括第六场效应管Q6和第七场效应管Q7,第六场效应管Q6和第七场效应管Q7均连接于工作电源3,第六场效应管Q6和第七场效应管Q7并联。第六场效应管Q6和第七场效应管Q7另一端连接第八场效应管Q8。第八场效应管Q8连接第二运算放大器U2的输出端。再者,需要说明的是,第一采样点A和第二采样点B为同一处采样点,同一点延伸出的两条线路。
实施例二
本申请还提供一种控制方法,控制方法包括:
步骤S10,控制采样模块采集与脉冲宽度调制信号对应的电平信号,并将电平信号传输给切换模块,其中,切换模块的一端连接采样模块,另一端连接至少一组信号反馈端,信号反馈端包括至少两个反馈点,反馈点用于与发光单元连接,切换模块和采样模块均连接工作电源;工作电源为直流电源,通过工作电源的供电,保证采样模块和切换模块中的各种电子元件能够运转、正常工作,工作电源的电压可以是5伏,也可以是12伏。采样模块用于采集与脉冲宽度调制信号对应的电平信号,脉冲宽度调制信号也简称为PWM信号。
步骤S20,控制切换模块接收电平信号,基于电平信号与预设阈值之间的关系, 控制切换模块在第一模式和第二模式之间切换,其中,在第一模式下,切换模块能够控制信号反馈端内的各反馈点相互独立,在第二模式下,切换模块能够控制信号反馈端内的各反馈点相互关联。相互关联可以理解为将各个反馈点连接在一起,公用一个流通线路。预设阈值可以理解为是对电平信号中电平的高低进行判断的依据。预设阈值的大小可以调整,一般预设阈值的范围在0.1%-10%之间。并且预设阈值可以是其中的具体值,也可以是范围值。例如预设阈值为5%时,以5%为界限,判断切换模块是切换到第一模式还是第二模式。除此之外,预设阈值还可以是0.1%、0.3%、0.5%、1%、2%、3%、4%、6%、7%、8%、9%、10%等。
具体地,在其中一个方面,基于电平信号与预设阈值之间的关系,控制切换模块在第一模式和第二模式之间切换的步骤,包括:
步骤S210,从脉冲宽度调制信号获取代表电平信号的占空比;占空比是在一个脉冲信号周期内通电时间和总时间的比值。可以知道的是,占空比越低,通电的时间越短。采样模块采集到的电平信号是占空比转化而来。占空比低时,电平信号就是低电平,占空比高时,电平信号就是高电平。
步骤S220,将占空比和预设阈值进行对比;对比两者的大小,经过两者的对比结果输出切换指令。
步骤S230,在占空比小于预设阈值时,输出第一切换指令,依据第一切换指令,控制切换模块切换至第一模式;在第一模式下,切换模块能够控制信号反馈端内的各反馈点相互独立;各反馈点相互独立是指彼此之间的电流或者电压是分开的,各自拥有独立的流通线路。
步骤S240,在占空比大于或等于预设阈值时,输出第二切换指令,依据第二切换指令,控制切换模块切换至第二模式。在第二模式下,切换模块能够控制信号反馈端内的各反馈点相互关联。相互关联可以理解为将各个反馈点连接在一起,公用一个流通线路。
在第一模式下,各个反馈点是相互独立的,此时连接每个反馈点的电流也是独立的。在第二模式下,两个反馈点会相互关联,此时,该两个反馈点连接在同一线路下。在低电平信号时,切换模块切换到第二模式,相当于将两个低电流的线路合并到了一起,由此,增加了该线路中的电流量。通过电流的增加,电压的相对波动减小,发光二极管的亮度趋于稳定,亮度不会出现高低变化。由此本技术方案能够有效减少发光 二极管的亮度闪烁。
实施例三

本申请的显示装置的实施例包括上述控制电路全部实施例的全部技术方案,且所达到的技术效果也完全相同,在此不再赘述。
虽然已参照几个典型实施方式描述了本申请,但应当理解,所用的术语是说明和示例性、而非限制性的术语。由于本申请能够以多种形式具体实施而不脱离申请的精神或实质,所以应当理解,上述实施方式不限于任何前述的细节,而应在随附权利要求所限定的精神和范围内广泛地解释,因此落入权利要求或其等效范围内的全部变化和改型都应为随附权利要求所涵盖。
