Embodiment 1

[0068] refer to figure 1 , shows a schematic flowchart of a specific embodiment of a method for driving an electrophoretic display in an embodiment of the present application. Such as figure 1 As shown, the driving method of the electrophoretic display in the embodiment of the present application includes the following specific steps:

[0069] S101. Refresh the grayscale of the original image to the initial grayscale.

[0070] In the original image, the spatial position distribution of the particles in each pixel is different, which makes each pixel appear different gray scales when the voltage is applied for the same driving time, and the display is driven to a uniform optical limit (black gray scale or white). Grayscale), which is beneficial to eliminate the residual image, and make the particles of each pixel in the same spatial position before the next stage of driving waveform. This stage is called the stage of erasing the original image.

[0071] S102. Acquire a volta...

Embodiment 2

[0087] The experiment adopts microcapsule EPD, and the experimental device is mainly divided into two parts: waveform editing system and data acquisition system. Among them, the work of the waveform editing system is mainly completed by the computer software LabVIEW, and the data acquisition system is composed of a driving power supply, a closed experiment box, a light source, a camera and a temperature controller.

[0088] The data acquisition system mainly collects the brightness value of the EPD display. Since the collection process is easily disturbed by external light, a closed experimental cabinet is required to prevent the interference of external light. The two light sources mainly provide the external light source required by the data acquisition system. In a confined space, the light environment provided by the internal light source is relatively stable, which provides good comparability for the driving effects of different e-paper driving waveforms. The electrophor...

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to but are not limited to the technical field of electrophoretic display, and in particular, relate to a driving method, a driving device and a waveform generator of an electrophoretic display. Background technique [0002] Electrophoretic display (EPD) is a non-self-luminous device based on the electrophoretic phenomenon of charged pigment particles suspended in a solvent. It not only has the advantages of wide viewing angle, rewritable, paper-like display, but also has ultra-low power consumption and strong Light readable features. The grayscale display of the electrophoretic display depends on the distribution of black and white particles, and the distribution of black and white particles depends on the applied voltage timing, that is, the driving waveform. The optimization of the driving waveform directly affects the display effect of the monitor. [0003] During the driving waveform optimization ...
