Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of display, and specifically relates to a driving module and a display device. Background Art

[0002] A thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) includes an array substrate, an opposing substrate, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the array substrate and the opposing substrate. When the liquid crystal display is displayed, the pixel electrode on one side of the array substrate and the common electrode on one side of the opposing substrate form a liquid crystal capacitor (Clc) to drive the liquid crystal molecules to deflect and control the brightness of each sub-pixel to achieve image display. The pixel electrode and the common electrode on one side of the array substrate form a storage capacitor (Cst) to maintain the voltage of the liquid crystal capacitor.

[0003] If a single-direction electric field is applied to the liquid crystal molecules for a long time, the liquid crystal molecules may be polarized, resulting in a decrease in display quality or even damage to the liquid crystal material.

Polarity reversal methods include frame reversal, row reversal, column reversal, and dot reversal.

[0036] Embodiment 1 See also Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the driving module 10 is used to drive the display panel 20 to display a picture. The driving module 10 includes a source driving chip 100, a polarity partition control module 200, a picture detection module 300 and an inversion mode selection module 400. The display panel 20 includes a plurality of rows of scan lines and a plurality of columns of data lines. The driving module 10 includes a plurality of source driving chips 100 (including Figure 1 In S1-S4, each source driver chip 100 is connected to multiple columns of data lines of the display panel 20, that is, multiple source driver chips 100 form multiple columns. The source driver chips 100 in odd columns are connected to the first signal line 501, and the source driver chips 100 in even columns are connected to the second signal line 502. The total number of source driver chips 100 can be an odd number or an even number.

[0037] The timing controller (TCON) generates a first polarity signal (D0) or a second polarity signal (D1). The first polarity signal can cause a single-point reversal in the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100, that is, the polarity reversal mode is "+-+-"; the second polarity signal can cause the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 to be reversed in the form of n positive polarities and m negative polarities, where one of n and m is an even number, that is, the polarity reversal mode is a continuous even number of equal polarity reversals. For example, n is 2, m is 1, and the polarity reversal mode of the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 is "++-++-". It should be understood that the polarity reversal mode of a row in the current frame is "++-++-", and the polarity reversal mode of the next frame is "--+--+".

[0038] The polarity partition control module 200 is connected to the inversion mode selection module 400 and the second signal line 502, and is used to output a first polarity signal or an inverted second polarity signal. The polarity partition control module 200 outputs a first polarity signal, and the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the odd columns connected to the first signal line 501 and the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the even columns connected to the second signal line 502 have the same polarity inversion mode; the polarity partition control module 200 outputs an inverted second polarity signal, and the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the odd columns connected to the first signal line 501 and the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the even columns connected to the second signal line 502 are symmetrical in polarity.

[0039] The image detection module 300 is connected to the display panel 20, the inversion mode selection module 400 and the polarity partition control module 200, and is used to control the polarity partition control module 200 and the inversion mode selection module 400 to work according to the detected crosstalk degree of the display image to form a normal polarity mode or a polarity symmetric mode.

[0040] In the normal polarity mode, the picture detection module 300 controls the inversion mode selection module 400 to select the output of the first polarity signal, and the first polarity signal is output to the source driver chip 100 of the odd column through the first signal line 501, and the polarity of the first display area 21 controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the odd column in the row direction is "+-+-"; the first polarity signal is output to the source driver chip 100 of the even column through the polarity partition control module 200 and the second signal line 502, and the polarity of the second display area 22 controlled by the source driver chip 100 of the even column in the row direction is "+-+-", such as Figure 2 As for the column direction, when scanning row by row, the polarity of the next row can be the same as that of the previous row, that is, the polarity inversion mode is column inversion, or the polarity of the next row is opposite to that of the previous row, that is, the polarity inversion mode is point inversion, depending on the specific situation.

[0041] It should be understood that if the polarity of the adjacent first display area 21 and the second display area 22 is symmetrical, and the pixel voltage and the common voltage of the first display area 21 and the second display area 22 are coupled in opposite directions, the coupling can be offset and the crosstalk can be improved or eliminated. However, the sub-pixels of the adjacent first display area 21 and the second display area 22 always have the polarity of "++" or "--", which will not change. Under the effect of long-term lighting and aging, this part of the liquid crystal may be affected to a certain extent. In addition, at the boundary between the adjacent first display area 21 and the second display area 22, the polarity of the sub-pixels in the row direction is always the same, while the polarity of the sub-pixels in the same column in other areas alternates between "+-+-", such as Figure 3As shown, the sub-pixel at the boundary position becomes brighter or darker than the surrounding sub-pixels, that is, a bright line or a dark line is formed, which affects the display effect of the display panel 20.

[0042] In order to improve or eliminate the display unevenness caused by bright and dark lines, in the polarity symmetry mode of this embodiment, the picture detection module 300 controls the inversion mode selection module 400 to output the second polarity signal and controls the polarity partition control module 200 to output the inverted second polarity signal. The entire display panel 20 has a row direction with a continuous even number of equal polarity inversions, such as Figure 4 As shown, the difference in pixel polarity between the boundary position and other positions of the display panel 20 is eliminated, thereby avoiding the formation of bright and dark lines at the boundary position.

[0043] In this embodiment, the driving module 10 includes a plurality of source driving chips 100, a polarity partitioning control module 200, a picture detection module 300 and an inversion mode selection module 400. Each source driving chip 100 is connected to a plurality of columns of data lines of the display panel 20. The source driving chips 100 of the odd columns are connected to the first signal line 501, and the source driving chips 100 of the even columns are connected to the second signal line 502. The inversion mode selection module 400 is connected to the timing controller to select the first polarity signal or the second polarity signal generated by the output timing controller. The first polarity signal can enable the display area row controlled by the source driving chip 100 to be The direction is single-point inversion, and the second polarity signal can reverse the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 in the form of n positive polarities and m negative polarities. The polarity partition control module 200 is connected to the inversion mode selection module 400 and the second signal line 502, and is used to output the first polarity signal or the inverted second polarity signal. The picture detection module 300 is connected to the display panel 20, the inversion mode selection module 400 and the polarity partition control module 200, and is used to control the polarity partition control module 200 and the inversion mode selection module 400 to work according to the detected crosstalk degree of the display picture, forming a conventional polarity mode and a polarity symmetric mode. In the polarity symmetric mode, the pixel voltage coupling directions of the display areas controlled by the adjacent source driver chips 100 are opposite, which can offset the coupling, improve or eliminate the crosstalk, and at the same time, the row direction is a continuous even number of equal polarity inversions, which eliminates the polarity difference of the pixels at the boundary position of the display area and other positions, which not only improves or eliminates the crosstalk, but also avoids the formation of bright and dark lines at the boundary position, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel 20.

[0044] In some embodiments, n is 2, and m is 1, that is, the polarity inversion mode of the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 is “++-++-”.

[0045] The row direction is two consecutive equal polarity inversions. The polarity inversion method is closer to point inversion, and the polarity changes between sub-pixels are more dispersed. This dispersed polarity change can effectively reduce flicker and improve display uniformity.

[0046] In some embodiments, during line-by-line scanning, the waveforms of the first polarity signal and the second polarity signal are as follows: Figure 6 The first polarity signal and the second polarity signal output by the image detection module 300 make the polarity inversion mode in the column direction of the display panel 20 the same as the polarity inversion mode in the row direction, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 shown.

[0047] The polarity inversion method in the column direction of the display panel 20 is the same as the polarity inversion method in the row direction, which can further reduce flicker and improve display uniformity.

[0061] In the normal polarity mode, the signal of the first signal line 501 and the signal of the second signal line 502 are both first polarity signals, the two input ends of the XOR gate circuit are both high level or low level, the XOR gate circuit outputs a low level signal to the control end of the second selector 410, the second selector 410 chooses to output the first polarity signal, and the display panel 20 is single-point inversion in the row direction; in the polarity symmetry mode, the signal of the first signal line 501 is the second polarity signal, the signal of the second signal line 502 is the inverted second polarity signal, the phases of the first signal line 501 and the second signal line 502 are different, one input end of the XOR gate circuit is high level and the other input end is low level, the XOR gate circuit outputs a high level signal to the control end of the second selector 410, the second selector 410 chooses to output the second polarity signal, and the display panel 20 is a continuous even number of equal polarity inversions in the row direction.

[0062] In some embodiments, the inversion mode selection module 400 also includes a first transistor 430, which is an N-type field effect transistor. The control end of the first transistor 430 is connected to the output end of the comparison unit 420, the first end of the first transistor 430 is connected to the control power supply 503, and the second end of the first transistor 430 is connected to the control end of the second selector 410.

[0063] The comparison unit 420 controls the first transistor 430 to be turned on or off, and the control power supply 503 controls the second selector 410 to work, so as to avoid the insufficient driving capability of the comparison unit 420 affecting the selection signal of the second selector 410.

[0064] In some embodiments, the image detection module 300 is a timing controller, which includes a waveform recognition unit 310 and a signal processing unit 320. The waveform recognition unit 310 is connected to the common electrode of the display panel 20 and the polarity partition control module 200. When the common electrode voltage Vcom exceeds the preset interval, the waveform recognition unit 310 controls the signal processing unit 320 to output a high-level control signal and a second polarity signal to form a polarity symmetric mode; when the common electrode voltage Vcom does not exceed the preset interval, the waveform recognition unit 310 controls the signal processing unit 320 to output a low-level control signal and a first polarity signal to form a normal polarity mode.

[0065] It should be noted that the picture detection module 300 may be a timing controller, but is not limited thereto. The picture detection module 300 may also be an additional detection module, depending on the specific situation.

[0066] When the pixel voltage is offset during crosstalk, it will cause the common electrode voltage Vcom to fluctuate. In the waveform recognition unit 310, an interval value is set according to the common electrode voltage Vcom, that is, a positive and negative trigger value m1 and m2 are set, such as Fig.11 As shown, when it is identified that the common electrode voltage Vcom exceeds the preset interval (greater than m1 and maintained for t1 time or less than m2 and maintained for t2 time, indicating serious crosstalk and poor picture effect), a high-level control signal is output to the polarity partition control module 200, and the display panel 20 switches to the polarity symmetric mode. The pixel voltage and common voltage coupling directions of the adjacent first display area 21 and second display area 22 are opposite, so that the coupling can be offset and the crosstalk can be improved or eliminated. On the contrary, when the common electrode voltage Vcom does not exceed the preset interval, a low-level control signal is output to the polarity partition control module 200, and the display panel 20 is in the normal polarity mode.

[0067] In some embodiments, the timing controller can detect the display screen and control the display panel 20 to a conventional polarity mode or a polarity symmetric mode according to the display screen. When using the timing controller to detect the display screen, some complex screens may not be detected, and the detection must be performed based on the pixel arrangement structure and number. The existing known crosstalk screens may not be complete. If a new screen has crosstalk later, then the pixel structure of this screen is different from the existing one, and the timing controller cannot detect it. In addition, the crosstalk phenomenon of different liquid crystals is inconsistent, and the unified setting cannot be fully compatible, which requires more debugging time.

[0068] In this embodiment, the waveform recognition unit 310 is connected to the common electrode of the display panel 20. The waveform recognition unit 310 controls the signal processing unit 320 to output a control signal according to the common electrode voltage Vcom, switching the display panel 20 to a conventional polarity mode or a polarity symmetric mode. Compared with the solution of using a timing controller to detect the display screen, it can be generally used to detect different crosstalk phenomena.

[0069] Embodiment 2 See also Fig.12 As shown, the display device in this embodiment includes the driving module 10 and the display panel 20 disclosed in the first embodiment, and the display panel 20 is connected to the source driving chip 100 of the driving module 10 .

[0070] In this embodiment, the display device includes a driving module 10, which includes a plurality of source driving chips 100, a polarity partitioning control module 200, a picture detection module 300, and an inversion mode selection module 400. Each source driving chip 100 is connected to a plurality of columns of data lines of the display panel 20, the source driving chips 100 of the odd columns are connected to the first signal line 501, and the source driving chips 100 of the even columns are connected to the second signal line 502. The inversion mode selection module 400 selects to output the first polarity signal or the second polarity signal. The polarity signal, the second polarity signal can make the row direction of the display area controlled by the source driver chip 100 reverse in the form of n positive polarities and m negative polarities. The polarity partition control module 200 is connected to the reversal mode selection module 400 and the second signal line 502, and is used to output the first polarity signal or the inverted second polarity signal. The picture detection module 300 is used to control the polarity partition control module 200 and the reversal mode selection module 400 to work according to the detected crosstalk degree of the display picture, forming a conventional polarity mode and a polarity symmetric mode. In the polarity symmetric mode, the pixel voltage coupling directions of the display areas controlled by the adjacent source driver chips 100 are opposite, which can offset the coupling, improve or eliminate the crosstalk. At the same time, the row direction is a continuous even number of equal polarity reversals, which eliminates the difference in pixel polarity at the boundary position of the display area and other positions, which not only improves or eliminates the crosstalk, but also avoids the formation of bright and dark lines at the boundary position, thereby improving the display effect of the display panel 20 and the display device.
