具体实施方式
为了使本公开的目的、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。
参考图1,LCD面板中的每个像素通常包括相对设置的像素电极,公共电极VCOM,以及位于像素电极和公共电极VCOM之间的液晶。且,像素电极和公共电极VCOM还可以形成像素电容。液晶可以在像素电极和公共电极VCOM的压差作用下偏转,从而使得显示面板发光。以及,每个像素通常还包括晶体管TFT。晶体管TFT的栅(gate)极G可以与gate扫描线,即栅线耦接(即,电连接)。晶体管TFT的源(source)极S可以与数据(Data)线耦接。晶体管TFT的漏(drain)极D可以与像素电极耦接。晶体管TFT可以响应于栅线上有效电位的栅极驱动信号开启,且可以响应于栅线上无效电位的栅极驱动信号关断。在晶体管TFT开启时,其源极S耦接的数据线提供的数据信号即可以经晶体管TFT的漏极D传输至像素电极,以为像素电极充电,进而驱动液晶偏转。
因像素电容的存在,在LCD面板显示过程中,难免会存储电荷。若在LCD面板关机一定时长后,还未充分泄放电荷,则易导致显示面板出现残影以及电荷残留长期作用而造成的画闪抖动问题。基于此,结合背景技术中记载可知,可以采用XON功能,以泄放像素电容中存储的电荷。顾名思义,XON功能是指在显示面板关机时,打开显示面板中所有像素包括的晶体管,以将电荷泄放 出来。结合图1和图2,对XON功能介绍如下:
参考图1可以看出,目前的面板驱动电路中包括电平转换器(level shift,L/S),该电平转换器L/S可以分别与电源端VGH和电源端VGL耦接,且还可以用于接收XAO信号。电源端VGH提供的电源信号的电位大于电源端VGL提供的电源信号的电位,即电源端VGH提供的电源信号的电位为高电位,电源端VGL提供的电源信号的电位为低电位。结合背景技术和图1可知,该XAO信号其实是采用分压电阻对供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号分压处理后得到的。相应的,在显示面板关机后,XAO信号的电位会随着供电电源信号的电位下降而下降。基于此,通常会在电平转换器L/S中预先设置一个XAO信号的电压准位,也可以称为设定门槛电压。在栅极驱动信号的有效电位为高电位的场景下,当XAO信号的电位下降至设定门槛电压以下时,可以触发电平转换器L/S基于所耦接的电源端VGH提供的电源信号,将栅极驱动信号(称为gate output)拉高后,再传输至栅线,从而控制所有像素中的TFT同时开启,实现电荷泄放,完成XON功能。泄放电荷其实相当于将像素电极上的电压快速中和至等于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压,确保像素电极和公共电极VCOM之间无压差,不造成直流(direct circuit,DC)偏置。
需要说明的是,因栅线通常是与栅极驱动器耦接,以接收来自栅极驱动器的栅极驱动信号,故电平转换器L/S其实是经栅极驱动器与栅线间接耦接。即,电平转换器L/S是将栅极驱动器向栅线传输的栅极驱动信号拉高。以及,电平转换器L/S通常还与时序控制器耦接,以将时序控制器生成的各类驱动信号进行电平转换后,再传输至对应的驱动电路(如,栅极驱动器)。图1仅示意性的示出一个像素。
但是,在LCD面板关机后,电源端VGH提供的电源信号的电位也会随供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号的电位下降而下降。在VGH提供的电源信号的电位下降至小于Vuvlo时,栅线上的栅极驱动信号即无法确保晶体管TFT开启,此时,XON停止。如此,导致XON的时间较短,无法有效泄放电荷。
例如,参考图2,其设定的预设门槛电压为1.2伏特(V),XON功能仅可以在XAO信号的电位小于1.2V,且VGH提供的电源信号的电位小于Vuvlo之前执行,时间较短。此外,图2还示出了电源端VGL提供的电源信号,时序控制器生成的开启信号STV1、时钟信号CKx和电源信号VGP1,以及经电平转换 器L/S转换后的开启信号STV1、时钟信号CKx和电源信号VGP1等信号的时序。参考图2可以看出,在完成XON后,电平转换器L/S还会基于电源端VGL提供的电源信号,将转换后的开启信号STV1、时钟信号CKx和电源信号VGP1统一拉低。即,图2所示的Follow VGL。同样的,电平转换器L/S可以是基于电源端VGH提供的电源信号,将转换后的开启信号STV1、时钟信号CKx和电源信号VGP1统一拉高。即,图2所示的Follow VGH。
为此,参考图3,目前还会在电源端VGH上并联足够多的电容,以使LCD面板关机后,电源端VGH提供的电源信号的电位可以下降的慢一些,从而间接达到延长XON时间的目的。以105寸LCD面板为例,在并联10颗22微法(μF)的片式多层陶瓷电容器(multi-layer ceramic capacitors,MLCC)后,参考图4,实测LCD面板关机后XON的时间约为230毫秒(ms),这一时长无法满足电荷的有效泄放,会造成LCD面板在多次开机关机后出现严重的画闪问题。参考图5,再继续增加21颗22μF的MLCC(见图3中虚线框所示部分)后,测试得到XON时间可以延长至950ms,可以满足电荷的有效泄放。但是,这就意味着需要在显示装置中增加21颗大容量MLCC,即增加较多电容,成本较大,且摆放位置受限。并且,因还需要确保在开机瞬间,为显示面板供电的电源电路的驱动能力满足所有电容的瞬间抽载,故进一步为生产成本带来了巨大负担。
再者,对于一些特殊显示产品,如采用COG封装技术制造的大尺寸LCD面板而言,因高度集成化,故供电电源端DVDD的供电负载较大,关机后,电位下降的也较快。在此基础上,是无法通过增加电容来保证XON时间足够长,使得电荷有效泄放的。COG封装技术是指:将显示面板中的各类器件直接集成于玻璃基板上的一种封装技术,英文全称为:chip on glass。
例如,对于采用COG封装技术制造的21.45英寸LCD面板而言,供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号的电位通常要达到3.3V。在该LCD面板关机后,XAO信号的电位下降至2.8V(即,预设门槛电压为2.8V)时,即可触发开启XON。在XAO信号的电位再继续下降至2V后,XON即停止。即便在增加电容的基础上,参考图6,也最多将XON时间维持在约8ms左右,实测该LCD面板关机后在该8ms时间内是无法将电荷泄放干净的。
需要说明的是,图4至图6中,STV信号是指LCD显示装置中,时序控制器生成的开启信号,用于驱动LCD显示装置中的栅极驱动器工作。GOUT信号 是指栅极驱动器的输出信号。SOUT是指LCD显示装置中,源极驱动器的输出信号。CLK是指时序控制器输出的时钟信号。VDDIN是指给供电电源端DVDD供电所提供的电源信号。LVDS是指LCD显示装置中,主机端给时序控制器输出的显示输入信号,以供时序控制器控制栅极驱动器和源极驱动器的工作。
为此,本公开实施例提供了一种面板驱动电路,可以应用于显示装置中。该面板驱动电路的设置,可以使得无需额外增加电容,即实现关机后电荷的有效泄放,成本较低,泄放效果较好。尤其适用于无法通过外围增加电容来增加XON时间的显示产品。
参考图7,显示装置10可以包括:显示面板M1和位于显示面板M1上的多个像素P1,像素P1可以包括:晶体管TFT(图7未示出)。像素P1的结构可以参考图1,在此不再赘述。
参考图8,面板驱动电路00可以包括:面板控制电路01和显示驱动电路02。结合图7和图8,面板控制电路01分别与供电电源端DVDD和显示驱动电路02耦接。显示驱动电路02还用于与多个像素P1耦接(图8未示出)。
其中,面板控制电路01用于:若监测到显示面板M1开机,则基于供电电源端DVDD提供的第一电位的供电电源信号,向显示驱动电路02传输第一显示驱动信号。以及,若监测到显示面板M1关机,则在供电电源信号的电位从第一电位掉电至小于电位阈值之前,向显示驱动电路02依序传输下述信号中的至少一种目标信号:第二显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号。依序传输是指:在目标信号包括第二显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号时,先传输第二显示驱动信号,再传输电荷泄放信号。当然,在一些实施例中,也可以仅向显示驱动电路02传输第二显示驱动信号或电荷泄放信号。
显示驱动电路02用于:基于第一显示驱动信号驱动多个像素P1发光,以使显示面板M1显示多帧第一画面。基于第二显示驱动信号驱动多个像素P1发光,以使显示面板M1显示至少一帧第二画面。基于电荷泄放信号控制多个像素P1中的晶体管TFT开启,以泄放多个像素P1中的电荷。
其中,第二画面与第一画面不同。如,第一画面可以为显示面板开机状态下所需显示的正常画面,如彩色画面。第二画面为单色画面。
因显示面板显示画面的颜色通常由像素P1的显示灰阶决定,像素P1的显示灰阶又由数据线提供的数据信号决定,即由向像素电极充电的信号决定。故, 通过在显示面板M1关机后,向显示驱动电路02传输第二显示驱动信号,以使得显示面板M1显示至少一帧单色画面,可以通过灵活设置第二画面的颜色(如设置第二画面的颜色与显示面板的显示模式对应的颜色相同),即灵活设置像素电极上电位的大小,使得在XON之前,像素电极和公共电极VCOM的压差尽可能的接近,换言之,将向像素电极提供的电压快速拉至公共电极VCOM提供的公共电压附近,减小像素电极与公共电极VCOM间的偏置电压,确保残漏电荷较少。之后再进行XON的话,因残留电荷已因显示第二画面最小化,故仅需较短的XON时间即可有效泄放电荷,进而无需增加较多电容来延长XON时间。面板控制电路01和显示驱动电路02相互配合,以控制显示面板M1显示至少一帧第二画面的操作也可以称为:关机插帧(可以称为泄放帧)操作。
相对于相关技术,因本公开实施例是在显示面板M1关机后,供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号掉电至电位阈值(也可以认为是XAO信号的电位小于预设门槛电压)之前,控制多个像素P1中的晶体管TFT开启,泄放多个像素P1中的电荷。故,面板控制电路01和显示驱动电路02相互配合,以在显示面板M1关机后,泄放多个像素P1中的电荷的操作也可以称为提前XON操作。之后,再于XAO信号的电位小于预设门槛电压之后,进入常规XON,则可以确保电荷的有效释放。整个XON的时间等于提前XON时间+常规XON时间。
结合上述实施例记载可知,若面板控制电路01向显示驱动电路02传输的目标信号包括:依序传输的第二显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号。则显示驱动电路02可以在显示面板M1关机后,先执行关机插帧操作,再执行提前XON操作。若面板控制电路01向显示驱动电路02传输的目标信号仅包括第二显示驱动信号,则显示驱动电路02可以在显示面板M1关机后,仅执行关机插帧操作。若面板控制电路-01向显示驱动电路02传输的目标信号仅包括电荷泄放信号,则显示驱动电路02可以在显示面板M1关机后,仅执行提前XON操作。
综上所述,本公开实施例提供了一种面板驱动电路,该面板驱动电路包括面板控制电路和显示驱动电路。面板驱动电路包括面板控制电路和显示驱动电路。在显示面板关机时,面板控制电路能够在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于电位阈值之前,依序向显示驱动电路传输显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号中的至少一种,以使得显示驱动电路依序执行控制显示面板显示单色的第二画面和提前泄放电荷中的至少一种操作。如此,可以在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于 电位阈值进入常规XON之前,实现对电荷的提前泄放,从而确保有效释放像素中的残留电荷。
图9是本公开实施例提供的再一种面板驱动电路的结构示意图。结合图7和图9可以看出,显示面板M1包括的多个像素P1可以阵列排布,即按行列排布。显示驱动电路02可以包括:栅极驱动器021和源极驱动器022。
栅极驱动器021可以通过多条栅线G1与多个像素P1耦接,并用于基于第一显示驱动信号和第二显示驱动信号,向多个像素P1逐行传输栅极驱动信号,即上述实施例记载的GOUT信号。以及栅极驱动器021可以基于电荷泄放信号,向多个像素P1中的晶体管TFT传输开启信号,该开启信号可以认为是有效电位的栅极驱动信号。
源极驱动器022可以通过多条数据线与多个像素P1耦接,并用于基于第一显示驱动信号和第二显示驱动信号,向多个像素P1传输数据信号。即上述实施例记载的SOUT信号。
需要说明的是,源极驱动器022基于第一显示驱动信号向多个像素P1传输的数据信号与基于第二显示驱动信号向多个像素P1传输的数据信号不同,从而确保显示的第一画面和第二画面不同。多个像素P1可以用于响应于栅极驱动信号和数据信号发光,多个像素P1中的晶体管TFT可以用于响应于开启信号开启。
可选的,显示装置一般还可以包括主机端和背光源(Backlight)。主机端可以分别与本公开实施例记载的面板控制电路01和背光源耦接。
其中,主机端可以用于基于待显示画面向面板控制电路01传输显示输入信号(Interface Signal)。如,该显示输入信号可以为图6所示时序图中的低电压差分(low-voltage differential signaling,LVDS)。面板控制电路01可以用于基于该显示输入信号生成第一显示驱动信号,从而控制显示驱动电路02可靠驱动显示面板M1显示第一画面。该第一画面即为基于显示输入信号生成的画面。以及,主机端还可以用于向背光源提供背光信号,以启亮背光或关闭背光。
以高电位指示传输信号,低电位指示停止传输信号为例,结合图10所示时序图可以看出,在显示面板开机处于工作状态时:输入电源(Power Supply)可以向供电电源端DVDD传输供电电源信号,以为供电电源端DVDD充电。主机端可以向面板控制电路01传输显示输入信号,以驱动显示面板M1正常显示画 面。以及,主机端可以向背光源提供背光信号,以启亮背光,使得显示面板M1正常显示。在显示面板关机处于非工作状态时:输入电源可以停止向供电电源端DVDD传输供电电源信号,即停止向供电电源端DVDD供电。主机端可以停止向面板控制电路01传输显示输入信号。以及,主机端可以停止向背光源提供背光信号,以关闭背光。
并且,参考图10还可以看出,在显示面板M1由关机进入开机状态时,输入电源先给供电电源端DVDD充电,在将供电电源端DVDD由0.1V充电至0.9V(见图10所示的t1阶段),显示面板M1开始准备显示。再经t2阶段之后,主机端开始向面板控制电路01传输显示输入信号。再经t5阶段之后,主机端开始向背光源提供背光信号,从而启亮背光。此时,显示面板M1开始正常显示画面。在显示面板由开机进入关机状态时,主机端先停止向背光源提供背光,经t6阶段之后,主机端再停止向面板控制电路01传输显示输入信号。再之后,输入电源才停止向供电电源端DVDD供电。在t3阶段之后,供电电源端DVDD的电位下降至0.9DVDD(即,电位阈值),此时可以开始进入常规XON操作,直至供电电源端DVDD的电位下降至0.1DVDD为止,XON结束。t4阶段为本次关机到下一次开机时,输入电源向供电电源端DVDD的供电情况。换言之,显示面板M1开机时,输入电源先开始为供电电源端DVDD供电。再然后,主机端开始提供输入电源信号。最后,主机端才开始控制背光启亮。显示面板M1关机时,主机端先控制背光关闭。再然后,主机端再停止提供显示输入信号。最后,输入电源才停止为供电电源端DVDD供电。
需要说明的是,即使是异常断电关机,输入电源方面,因印刷电路板(printed circuit board assembly,PCBA)上保持电容的存在,会使得输入电源为供电电源端DVDD提供的电源信号缓慢下降,面板控制电路01还能持续工作一段时间。而背光则会因为电压稍微下降到背光启亮所需电压就马上关闭,远先于面板控制电路停止工作。面板控制电路01至少包括时序控制器(timer control,TCON),这里提到的面板控制电路01均可以是指其包括的时序控制器TCON。
结合图10可知,目前通常是在t3阶段之后再进入XON,称为常规XON。而在本公开实施例中,可以充分利用常规XON之前的时间,提前泄放电荷。如,可以在t3阶段或t6阶段时,即执行关机插帧操作和/或提前XON操作。在t3阶段之后,再进入常规XON,则可以确保对电荷的有效泄放。
可选的,若显示面板M1的显示模式为常黑显示模式,则第二画面可以为黑色画面。若显示面板M1的显示模式为常白显示模式,则第二画面可以为白色画面。其中,常黑显示模式常见于平面方向转换(in-plane-switching,IPS)或高级超维场转换技术(advanced super dimension switch,ADS)类显示面板。常白显示模式常见于扭曲向列型(twisted nematic,TN)类显示面板。
其中,黑色画面对应的数据信号可以为L0,白色画面对应的数据信号可以为L255。示例的,以第二画面为黑色画面为例,图11示出了一种信号时序图。其中示出显示输入信号LVDS,供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号,栅极驱动器021输出的栅极驱动信号GOUT,源极驱动器022输出的源极驱动信号SOUT,以及公共电极VCOM上的公共电压。参考图11可以看出,在常规XON启动之前,且在停止输出显示输入信号LVDS之后,面板控制电路01可以向显示驱动电路02传输第二显示驱动信号,以使显示驱动电路02包括的栅极驱动器021继续传输栅极驱动信号,显示驱动电路02包括的源极驱动器022继续传输数据信号,且传输的数据信号为L0,实现黑色画面的插帧显示。在进入常规XON之前,可以停止关机插帧操作。
可选的,在本公开实施例中,显示驱动电路02可以用于:基于第二显示驱动信号,驱动多个像素P1发光,以使显示面板M1显示偶数帧第二画面。且,每相邻两帧第二画面的极性相反,如此还可以确保极性平衡,确保显示面板M1的显示效果较好。
其中,极性相反可以是指针对每个像素P1,相邻两帧中,该像素P1包括的像素电极和公共电极VCOM的压差相等,但其中一帧像素电极上的电位大于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压(可以称为正极性),另一帧像素电极上的电位小于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压(可以称为负极性)。结合上述实施例记载,因像素P1中的晶体管TFT是将数据线提供的数据信号传输至像素电极,以为像素电极充电,故像素电极上的电位可以等效为数据信号的电位。即,相邻两帧中,每个像素P1耦接的数据线传输的数据信号的电位不同,其中一帧传输的数据信号的电位大于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压,另一帧传输的数据信号的电位大于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压,从而确保显示面板可靠显示第二画面。
例如,显示驱动电路02可以用于基于第二显示驱动信号,驱动多个像素P1发光,以使显示面板M1显示两帧第二画面,该两帧第二画面的极性恰好相反。 图12以插入两帧黑色画面为例,示出了一种关机插帧的仿真图。
结合上述实施例记载可知,在关机插帧后,像素P1中的残留电荷可以被最小化。之后,再进入常规XON,则可以实现对电荷的有效泄放。在此基础上,可以增加较少的电容或是不增加电容来控制常规XON的时间,即可达到充分泄放电荷的目的。示例的,以21.45英寸的ADS显示产品为例,关机插入两帧黑色画面后,即可使得像素中残留电荷被最小化,驱动显示黑色画面的数据信号L0的电位基本接近于地端GND提供的信号的电位。由此可知,关机插帧操作尤其适用于公共电极VCOM上的公共电压在0V附近的场景。
可选的,如上述实施例记载,面板控制电路01还可以用于与主机端耦接,并用于接收主机端传输的控制信号,以及基于控制信号确定显示面板M1的工作状态。其中,控制信号处于第一电位可以用于指示显示面板M1处于开机状态,控制信号处于第二电位可以用于指示显示面板M1处于关机状态,且在显示面板M1关机时,控制信号的电位由第一电位跳变为第二电位可以先于供电电源信号掉电。面板控制电路01还用于若基于控制信号确定显示面板M1关机,则向显示驱动电路02传输目标信号。
即,在本公开实施例中,在供电电源信号的电位小于电位阈值之前,面板控制电路01可以在基于主机端提供的控制信号确定显示面板关机时,即立刻控制显示驱动电路02执行关机插帧操作和/或提前XON操作。
作为一种可选的实现方式:该控制信号可以为主机端向面板控制电路01传输的显示输入信号LVDS。即,结合图10,面板控制电路01无需等待供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号的电位下降,可以直接基于输入信号LVDS的时序触发XON。一旦主机端停止提供显示输入信号,则面板控制电路01立即向显示驱动电路02传输电荷泄放信号,以使显示驱动电路02控制所有像素P1中的晶体管TFT开启,提前泄放电荷。即,参考图10和图13,可以充分利用t3阶段做补充动作,实现电荷的提前泄放。之后,再进入常规XON,即可以进一步泄放电荷,最终确保将像素中存储的电荷充分泄放。
可选的,结合图11和图13,在提前XON之前,还可以先进行关机插帧操作,如结合图11所示的插两帧黑色画面。图13也分别示出了供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号,显示输入信号LVDS,栅极驱动器021传输的栅极驱动信号GOUT,以及源极驱动器022传输的数据信号SOUT。
作为另一种可选的实现方式:控制信号可以为主机端基于监测到的显示面板M1工作状态生成的信号,可以称为Standby信号。即,结合图10,面板控制电路01无需等待供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号的电位下降,可以直接基于Standby信号的时序触发XON。一旦Standby信号掉电,则面板控制电路01立即向显示驱动电路02传输电荷泄放信号,以使显示驱动电路02控制所有像素P1中的晶体管TFT开启,提前泄放电荷。之后,再进入常规XON,可以有效延长XON的总时间,确保有效泄放像素P1中的残留电荷。
例如,参考图14,其示出了21.45英寸的显示装置中,主机端与面板控制电路01包括的时序控制器TCON的连接示意图。从图14可以看出,主机端可以主动生成Standby信号,并通过对应引脚(也可以称为pin脚)传输至时序主控器TCON,以指示显示面板M1是否关机。
图15示出了一种包括Standby信号的信号时序图。结合图11和图15可以看出,Standby信号由高电位跳变为低电位可以先于供电电源端DVDD掉电,即Standby信号可以提前掉电。在基于Standby信号进入提前XON之前,可以先进行关机插帧操作,如结合图11所示的插两帧黑色画面。再然后,可以再进入提前XON,提前XON的时间可以约为32ms。图15也分别示出了供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号,显示输入信号LVDS,栅极驱动器021传输的栅极驱动信号GOUT,以及源极驱动器022传输的数据信号SOUT。以图15为例,图16示出了一种在执行关机插帧和基于Standby信号提前XON的仿真图。
可选的,主机端监测显示面板M1工作状态的方法有多种。如,主机端可以基于接收到的关机指令确定显示面板M1关机,关机指令可以由用户手动触发显示面板生成或者也可以由用户采用语音控制生成,本公开实施例对此不做限定。
作为又一种可选的实现方式,面板控制电路01还可以用于监测背光源的发光状态,并基于背光源的发光状态确定显示面板M1的工作状态。其中,背光源处于发光状态用于指示显示面板M1处于开机状态,背光源处于不发光状态用于指示显示面板M1处于关机状态,且在显示面板M1关机时,背光源由发光状态切换为不发光状态先于供电电源信号掉电。在此基础上,可以确定上述实施例记载的Standby信号或XAO信号可以由面板控制电路01基于背光源的发光状态生成,相应的,主机端即无需向面板控制电路01传输Standby信号。
以及,面板控制电路01还用于若基于背光源的发光状态确定显示面板M1 关机,则向显示驱动电路02传输目标信号。
即,在本公开实施例中,在供电电源信号的电位小于电位阈值之前,面板控制电路01可以在监测到背光源关闭后,立刻控制显示驱动电路02执行关机插帧操作和/或提前XON操作。结合上述实施例记载可知,在显示面板关机后,背光源是最先被关断的,如此,可以进一步确保电荷的有效泄放。
示例的,结合图10和图17,一旦背光源关断,即主机端停止向背光源提供背光信号,Standby信号或XAO信号即立刻由高电位跳变至低电位发生掉电。此时,面板控制电路01可以直接向显示驱动电路02传输目标信号,以使显示驱动电路02执行关机插帧和/或提前XON操作。
可选的,参考图18,面板控制电路01除包括时序控制器TCON之外,还可以包括:发光侦测子电路011,电平转换器L/S和开关子电路012。
其中,发光侦测子电路011可以位于背光源的一侧,且分别与下拉电源端(如,地端GND)和时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1耦接。发光侦测子电路011可以用于若侦测到背光源发光(即,显示面板开机),则控制下拉电源端GND与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1导通。此时,下拉电源端GND提供的下拉电源信号即可以传输至时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1。若侦测到背光源不发光(即,显示面板关机),则控制下拉电源端GND与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1断开耦接。
时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1还可以与供电电源端DVDD耦接,时序控制器TCON的输出接口P2可以与开关子电路012的控制端耦接。时序控制器TCON可以用于基于下拉电源端GND向输入接口P1传输的下拉电源信号,向开关子电路012的控制端传输导通信号,以及基于供电电源端DVDD向输入接口传输的供电电源信号,向开关子电路012的控制端传输关断信号。需要说明的是,在发光侦测子电路011控制下拉电源端GND与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1断开耦接时,供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号即可以可靠传输至时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1。
开关子电路012的输入端可以与供电电源端DVDD耦接,开关子电路012的输出端可以分别与下拉电源端GND和电平转换器L/S耦接。开关子电路012可以用于响应于导通信号,控制供电电源端DVDD与电平转换器L/S导通,此时,供电电源端DVDD提供的供电电源信号即可以传输至电平转换器L/S。以 及开关子电路012可以用于响应于关断信号,控制下拉电源端GND与电平转换器L/S导通。此时,下拉电源端GND提供的下拉电源信号即可以传输至电平转换器L/S。
电平转换器L/S还可以与显示驱动电路02耦接(图中未示出)。电平转换器L/S可以用于基于下拉电源端GND传输的下拉电源信号,向显示驱动电路02传输目标信号,即传输第二显示驱动信号和/或电荷泄放信号,从而实现关机插帧和/或提前泄放电荷的目的。以及电平转换器L/S可以基于供电电源端DVDD传输的供电电源信号,向显示驱动电路02传输第一显示驱动信号,以使得显示驱动电路02基于第一显示驱动信号可靠控制显示面板M1正常显示第一画面。
即,在本公开实施例中,一旦发光侦测子电路011监测到背光源停止发光,则立即向电平转换器L/S传输低电位的Standby信号或XAO信号,以控制电平转换器L/S将栅极驱动器021传输的栅极驱动信号的电位均拉高,使得像素中的所有TFT开启,实现电荷的提前泄放。当然,同上述实施例记载,该低电位的Standby信号或XAO信号也可以控制电平转换器L/S向显示驱动电路02传输第二显示驱动信号,以进入关机插帧操作。
图19示出了另一种面板控制电路的结构示意图。如图19所示,发光侦测子电路011可以为:光电转化二极管ZD1。开关子电路012可以包括:开关晶体管TR1。
其中,光电转化二极管ZD1的输入端可以与下拉电源端GND耦接,光电转化二极管ZD1的输出端可以与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1耦接。在背光开启时,光电转化二极管ZD1可以导通,从而控制下拉电源端GND与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1导通。在背光关闭时,光电转化二极管ZD1可以关断,从而控制下拉电源端GND与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1断开耦接。
时序控制器TCON的输出接口P2可以与开关晶体管TR1的栅极耦接,开关晶体管TR1的第一极可以与供电电源端DVDD耦接,开关晶体管TR1的第二极与下拉电源端GND耦接。即,开关晶体管TR1的栅极可以为开关子电路012的控制端,开关晶体管TR1的第一极可以为开关子电路012的输入端,开关晶体管TR1的第二极可以为开关子电路012的输出端。开关晶体管TR1的第一极和第二极中,一极可以为源极,另一极可以为漏极。
可选的,在本公开实施例中,开关晶体管TR1可以为P型晶体管。对于P 型晶体管而言,导通信号的电位可以为低电位,关断信号的电位可以为高电位。当然,在一些其他实施例中,开关晶体管TR1也可以为N型晶体管。对于N型晶体管而言,导通信号的电位可以为高电位,关断信号的电位可以为低电位。
继续参考图18和图19可以看出,面板控制电路01还可以包括:串联于供电电源端DVDD与时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1之间的第一电阻R1。串联于供电电源端DVDD与时序控制器TCON的输出接口P2之间的第二电阻R2。以及,串联于下拉电源端GND与开关子电路012的输出端之间的第三电阻R3。
时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1一般为上升沿触发有效。在此基础上,结合图19,对面板控制电路01的工作原理介绍如下:
参考图17,因显示面板开机后,在时序上,输入电源Power Supply最先启动,给供电电源端DVDD充电。供电电源端DVDD准备好后(即,所提供供电电源信号的电位达到0.9DVDD时),时序控制器TCON可以完成初始化。此时,时序控制器TCON的输出接口P2可以输出低电位的导通信号,相应的,开关晶体管TR1导通。供电电源端DVDD提供的高电位的供电电源信号经开关晶体管TR1的第一极传输至开关晶体管TR1的第二极。即,此时Standby信号或XAO信号的电位为高电位。电平转换器L/S可以基于该高电位的Standby信号或XAO信号,控制显示驱动电路02开始工作,使得显示面板能够正常开机。
继续参考图17,在t2阶段+t5阶段之后,主机端向背光源提供背光信号,控制背光启亮。此时,光电转化二极管ZD1可以导通,进而使得时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1与下拉电源端GND可靠耦接。相应的,下拉电源端GND提供的低电位的下拉电源信号可以传输至时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1。因时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1为上升沿触发有效,故时序控制器TCON此时不进行任何处理,其输出接口P2依然输出低电位的导通信号,相应的,开关晶体管TR1保持导通状态,Standby信号或XAO信号的电位维持为高电位,显示面板正常显示。
继续参考图17,在显示面板关机时,相对于输入电源Power Supply和显示输入信号LVDS,背光最先关闭。此时,光电转化二极管ZD1关断,进而使得时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1与下拉电源端GND断开耦接。相应的,供电电源端DVDD提供的高电位的供电电源信号会传输至时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1,即将时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1由之前的低电位拉高至高电位。 因时序控制器TCON的输入接口P1为上升沿触发有效,故时序控制器TCON的输出接口P2相应的会输出高电位的关断信号,开关晶体管TR1关断。开关晶体管TR1的第二极会由第三电阻R3下拉至下拉电源端GND,开关晶体管TR1的第二极输出的Standby信号或XAO信号的电位跳变为低电位的下拉电源信号。从而触发电平转换器L/S提前开启XON。
结合上述实施例记载可知,本公开实施例记载的面板控制电路01还可以用于:若监测到显示面板M1关机,则在供电电源信号的电位从第一电位掉电至小于电位阈值,且供电电源信号的电位大于第二电位之前,向显示驱动电路02传输电荷泄放信号。即,在关机插帧和/或提前XON之后,还进入常规XON,确保电荷的有效泄放。
结合上述实施例记载可知,本公开实施例提供了多种控制时序,多种控制时序可以任意组合,以实现电荷的有效泄放。如,参考图11,其示出的是一种关机插帧的时序。参考图13,其示出的是一种基于显示输入信号进行关机插帧和提前XON的时序。参考图15,其示出的是一种基于Standby信号进行关机插帧和提前XON的时序。该Standby信号可以由主机端生成并传输至面板控制电路01,或者也可以由面板控制电路01监测背光工作状态直接生成。本公开实施例记载的方案尤其适用于无法通过增加电容来延长常规XON时间的特殊情况。经测试验证,在21.45英寸的COG封装技术制造的竖屏显示产品中,使用关机插帧和提前XON的方式,可以有效泄放电荷,解决电荷残留带来的画闪问题。
综上所述,本公开实施例提供了一种面板驱动电路,该面板驱动电路包括面板控制电路和显示驱动电路。面板驱动电路包括面板控制电路和显示驱动电路。在显示面板关机时,面板控制电路能够在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于电位阈值之前,依序向显示驱动电路传输显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号中的至少一种,以使得显示驱动电路依序执行控制显示面板显示单色的第二画面和提前泄放电荷中的至少一种操作。如此,可以在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于电位阈值进入常规XON之前,实现对电荷的提前泄放,从而确保有效释放像素中的残留电荷。
图20是本公开实施例提供的一种电荷泄放方法的流程图,该方法可以应用于上述附图所示的面板驱动电路包括的面板控制电路01中。如图20所示,该 方法包括:
步骤2001、监测显示面板是否关机。
步骤2002、若监测到显示面板开机,则基于所耦接的供电电源端提供的第一电位的供电电源信号,向所耦接的显示驱动电路传输第一显示驱动信号。
步骤2003、若监测到显示面板关机,则在供电电源信号的电位从第一电位掉电至小于电位阈值之前,向显示驱动电路依序传输下述信号中的至少一种目标信号:第二显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号。
其中,第一显示驱动信号用于指示显示驱动电路驱动多个像素发光,以使显示面板显示多帧第一画面,第二显示驱动信号用于指示显示驱动电路驱动多个像素发光,以使显示面板显示至少一帧第二画面。电荷泄放信号用于指示显示驱动电路控制多个像素中的晶体管开启,以泄放多个像素中的电荷。第二画面与第一画面不同,且第二画面为单色画面。
综上所述,本公开实施例提供了一种电荷泄放方法。该方法中,在显示面板关机时,面板控制电路能够在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于电位阈值之前,依序向显示驱动电路传输显示驱动信号和电荷泄放信号中的至少一种,以使得显示驱动电路依序执行控制显示面板显示单色的第二画面和提前泄放电荷中的至少一种操作。如此,可以在供电电源信号的电位掉电至小于电位阈值进入常规XON之前,实现对电荷的提前泄放,从而确保有效释放像素中的残留电荷。
需要说明的是,上述步骤2001至步骤2003的具体实现方法可以参考装置侧实施例记载,在此不再赘述。
