Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, due to the complex circuit structure of the existing analog voltage storage unit, it is difficult to integrate it into the pixel circuit. Therefore, most of the prior art uses integrated 1Bit digital memory as the analog voltage storage unit. Only black and white voltages of LCD pixels can be stored, that is, only black and white display can be realized, which greatly limits the application range of MIP display technology
