[0024] Figure 5 is a block diagram of a gamma reference voltage output circuit according to a fourth embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] Figure 1 is a block diagram of a display device according to an embodiment.
[0026] refer to Figure 1The display device may include a panel 1, a data driving device 2, a gate driving device 3, a timing control device 4, and the like.
[0027] The panel 1 may have a plurality of data lines DL and a plurality of gate lines GL arranged thereon, and may have a plurality of sub-pixels in a matrix form. Each sub-pixel may be connected to the data line DL according to a scan signal supplied to the gate line GL. In addition, the brightness of each sub-pixel may be adjusted according to a data voltage supplied to the data line DL.
[0028] Panel 1 may be an LCD (liquid crystal display) panel, an OLED (organic light emitting diode) panel, or other types of panels. In the case where panel 1 is an OLED panel, the OLED may be arranged in each sub-pixel, and a plurality of transistors connected to the OLED may be arranged. The gate line GL and the data line DL may be connected to the transistors arranged in each sub-pixel. If a scan signal indicating conduction is supplied to the gate line GL, one of the plurality of transistors may be turned on, and the data line DL may be connected to the gate of another transistor. In addition, the magnitude of the current flowing through the other transistor may be adjusted according to the magnitude of the data voltage supplied to the data line DL, thereby adjusting the brightness of the OLED.
[0029] The gate driving device 3 may supply a scan signal to the gate line GL, and the data driving device 2 may supply a data voltage to the data line DL. The gate driving device 3 and the data driving device 2 may receive a control signal or a synchronization signal from the timing control device 4, and may determine the driving timing of each sub-pixel according to the control signal or the synchronization signal.
[0030] The timing control device 4 may send the image data RGB indicating the grayscale value of each sub-pixel to the data driving device 2. The timing control device 4 may receive the image data RGB from an external device, may convert the image data RGB into a form that complies with the data driving device 2, and may send the image data RGB. In the case where the panel 1 is an OLED panel, the timing control device 4 may detect a change in the characteristics of each sub-pixel of the OLED panel, may convert the image data RGB to compensate for the characteristic change, and may send it to the data driving device 2.
[0031] The data driving device 2 may extract pixel image data of each sub-pixel from the image data RGB, may generate a data voltage according to the pixel image data, and may supply the generated data voltage to a data line (DL) connected to each sub-pixel.
[0032] If the panel is larger than a certain size, the data driving device 2 may include two or more driving chips. For example, the data driving device 2 may include a first driving chip 10 for supplying a data voltage to a side area of the panel (1) and a second driving chip 20 for supplying a data voltage to an opposite side area of the panel (1). In the case where the data driving device 2 includes the first driving chip 10 and the second driving chip 20, each of the first driving chip 10 and the second driving chip 20 may include a channel circuit and a gamma reference voltage output circuit.
[0033] In other words, the first driver chip 10 may include a first channel circuit 12 and a first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100, and the second driver chip 20 may include a second channel circuit 22 and a second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200. In addition, the first driver chip 10 and the second driver chip 20 may each further include a data processing circuit (not shown) that receives image data from the timing control device 4 and extracts pixel image data (pRGB) from the image data.
[0034] On the other hand, the first channel circuit 12 may include a plurality of channel circuits for outputting data voltages in one side region, and the second channel circuit 22 may include a plurality of channel circuits for outputting data voltages in an opposite side region.
[0035] Here, one channel circuit may include a shift register, a latch, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), an output buffer, and the like.
[0036] The pixel image data (pRGB) extracted by the data processing circuit (not shown) can be temporarily stored in the latch (LT) by the shift register (SR), and then can be converted into an analog data voltage (Vdata) in the DAC. In addition, the data voltage (Vdata) can be output to the data line through the output buffer (BF).
[0037] In an embodiment, the DAC may receive a plurality of gamma voltages from any one of the gamma reference voltage output circuits 100 or 200. In addition, the DAC may generate a data voltage (Vdata) by selecting one of the plurality of gamma voltages according to pixel image data (pRGB).
[0038] The DAC may include a switch array. Here, the switch array may include a plurality of switches, and the plurality of switches may be connected to output lines OL of any one of the gamma reference voltage output circuits 100 or 200. The number of output lines OL may be the same as the number of gamma reference voltages output from any one of the gamma reference voltage output circuits 100 or 200. For example, if the gamma reference voltage includes the first gamma reference voltage to the 1024th gamma reference voltage, the number of output lines OL may be 1024.
[0039] In this case, the switch array may receive the first to 1024th gamma reference voltages through the output line OL, and may select any one of the first to 1024th gamma reference voltages according to the grayscale value of the previously input pixel image data (pRGB), thereby outputting a data voltage.
[0040] In one embodiment, the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 and the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 respectively included in the first driver chip 10 and the second driver chip 20 may share components required to output gamma reference voltages, thereby eliminating output deviations between gamma reference voltages.
[0041] Its detailed description is as follows.
[0042] Figure 2 is a block diagram of a gamma reference voltage output circuit according to the first embodiment.
[0043] refer to Figure 2 According to the first embodiment, the gamma reference voltage output circuit may include: a first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100, which is included in the first driving chip 10; a second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200, which is included in the second driving chip 20; and a buffer voltage relay circuit 310, which is used to electrically connect the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 with the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200. In the first embodiment, the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 may include a one-side power input circuit 112, a one-side gamma buffer circuit 122, and a one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132.
[0044] The one-side power input circuit 112 may output a first one-side gamma reference voltage, an N-th one-side gamma reference voltage, and M one-side divided voltages.
[0045] The one-side power input circuit 112 may include: a first one-side input buffer 112a, for receiving a first input voltage Vin1 and outputting a first one-side gamma reference voltage V1; a first one-side line 112b, one end of which is connected to the output end of the first one-side input buffer 112a; a second one-side input buffer 112c, for receiving a second input voltage Vin2 and outputting an N-th one-side gamma reference voltage (e.g., V1024); a second one-side line 112d, which is connected to the output end of the second one-side input buffer 112c; and a first one-side resistor array 112e, for receiving the first one-side gamma reference voltage V1 from the first one-side line 112b and generating M one-side voltage dividers (e.g., Vd1 to Vd7).
[0046] In an embodiment, although for ease of explanation the description will be based on the situation where the first one side resistor array 112e receives the first one side gamma reference voltage V1, in actual application of this embodiment, the first one side resistor array 112e can receive the Nth one side gamma reference voltage (for example, V1024) from the second one side line 112d, and can generate M one side voltage dividers.
[0047] One end of the first one-side resistor array 112e may be connected to the first one-side wire 112b, and the other end thereof may be connected to the second one-side wire 112d. In addition, nodes may be formed in some of the plurality of resistors constituting the first one-side resistor array 112e, and M one-side voltage divisions may be output through the nodes. Here, the resistors constituting the first one-side resistor array 112e may have substantially the same resistance value.
[0048] The one-sided gamma buffer circuit 122 may receive M one-sided divided voltages generated by the first one-sided resistor array 112e and may buffer the M one-sided divided voltages to output M one-sided buffered voltages. The one-sided gamma buffer circuit 122 may include M one-sided gamma buffers.
[0049] The one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132 may include a plurality of resistors connected in series to each other, and may use the plurality of resistors to separate the first one-side gamma reference voltage from the M one-side buffer voltages, thereby generating the second one-side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th one-side gamma reference voltage. That is, the one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132 may use the first one-side gamma reference voltage and the M one-side buffer voltages to generate the second one-side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th one-side gamma reference voltage.
[0050] Here, one end of the one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132 may be connected to the first one-side line 112 b, and the other end thereof may be connected to the second one-side line 112 d. In addition, the one-side buffer voltage output from the one-side gamma buffer circuit 122 may be input to a node formed in some of the plurality of resistors constituting the one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132.
[0051] The output line OL of the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 can be supplied to multiple switch arrays included in the first channel circuit 12: the second one-side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th one-side gamma reference voltage generated by the one-side gamma reference voltage generation circuit 132, and the first one-side gamma reference voltage and the Nth one-side gamma reference voltage output from the one-side power input circuit 112.
[0052] The second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 may include an opposite-side power input circuit 212 and an opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 .
[0053] The opposite side power input circuit 212 can output the first opposite side gamma reference voltage and the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage in a state electrically isolated from the one side power input circuit 112. Here, the first opposite side gamma reference voltage can correspond to the first one side gamma reference voltage, and the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage can correspond to the Nth one side gamma reference voltage. In other words, the value of the first opposite side gamma reference voltage can be the same as the value of the first one side gamma reference voltage, or the deviation therebetween can be very small. In addition, the value of the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage can also be the same as the value of the Nth one side gamma reference voltage, or the deviation therebetween can be very small.
[0054] The opposite side power input circuit 212 may include: a first opposite side input buffer 212a, for receiving a third input voltage Vin3 and outputting a first opposite side gamma reference voltage V1'; a first opposite side line 212b, one end of which is connected to the output end of the first opposite side input buffer 212a; a second opposite side input buffer 212c, for receiving a fourth input voltage Vin4 and outputting an Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage (e.g., V1024'); and a second opposite side line 212d, which is connected to the output end of the second opposite side input buffer 212c. Here, the other end of the first side line 112b and the other end of the first side line 212b may be electrically isolated from each other, and the other end of the second side line 112d and the other end of the second side line 212d may also be electrically isolated from each other.
[0055] On the other hand, the opposite-side power input circuit 212 may further include a first opposite-side resistor array 212 e including a plurality of resistors connected in series to each other.
[0056] The opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 may include a plurality of resistors connected in series to each other, and may use resistors to separate a first opposite side gamma reference voltage from M one-side buffer voltages input through a buffer voltage relay circuit 310 (which will be described later), thereby generating a second opposite side gamma reference voltage to an N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage.
[0057] Here, one end of the opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 may be connected to the first opposite-side line 212 b , and the other end thereof may be connected to the second opposite-side line 212 d .
[0058] In addition, the one-side buffer voltage input through the buffer voltage relay circuit 310 may be input to nodes formed in some of the plurality of resistors constituting the opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232. The resistance value of each of the plurality of resistors constituting the opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 may be the same as the resistance value of each of the plurality of resistors constituting the one-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132.
[0059] The output line OL of the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 can be supplied to multiple switch arrays included in the second channel circuit 22: the second opposite side gamma reference voltage generated by the opposite side gamma reference voltage generation circuit 232 to the N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage, and the first opposite side gamma reference voltage and the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage output from the opposite side power input circuit 212.
[0060] On the other hand, the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 may further include a contra-side gamma buffer circuit 222 including M contra-side gamma buffers having input terminals distributedly connected to the first contra-side resistor array 212 e .
[0061] If the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 also includes an opposite gamma buffer circuit 222, the output side of the opposite gamma buffer circuit 222 may not be electrically connected to the opposite gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232, or power may not be supplied to the opposite gamma buffer circuit 222 (i.e., M opposite gamma buffers).
[0062] This is because the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 uses the M opposite side buffer voltages input through the buffer voltage relay circuit 310 when generating the second opposite side gamma reference voltage to the N−1th opposite side gamma reference voltage, instead of using the M opposite side buffer voltages buffered in the opposite side gamma buffer circuit 222 .
[0063] In the first embodiment, due to the following reasons, the other end of the first side line 112b and the other end of the first pair of side lines 212b are electrically isolated from each other, the other end of the second side line 112d and the other end of the second pair of side lines 212d are electrically isolated from each other, and the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 uses M one side buffer voltages to generate the second opposite side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage.
[0064] First, even if the M one-side gamma buffers constituting the one-side gamma buffer circuit 122 and the M opposite-side gamma buffers constituting the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 222 are the same product, they may have different manufacturing tolerances, which may generate a deviation between the one-side buffer voltage output from the one-side gamma buffer and the opposite-side buffer voltage output from the opposite-side gamma buffer, thereby causing a deviation between the one-side gamma reference voltage and the opposite-side gamma reference voltage.
[0065] In the first embodiment, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned deviation of the gamma reference voltage, the M one-side buffer voltages output from the one-side gamma buffer circuit 122 are also used in the opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 to generate the opposite-side gamma reference voltage, thereby eliminating the deviation of the gamma reference voltage between the two sides caused by the deviation of the buffer voltage between the two sides.
[0066] On the other hand, since the first side gamma reference voltage and the N-th side gamma reference voltage output from the one side power input circuit 112, the signal having the first side gamma reference voltage, and the signal having the N-th side gamma reference voltage are also used to generate power for M one side voltage dividers and the second side gamma reference voltage to the N-1-th side gamma reference voltage, they have very large current values compared to the M one side buffer voltages output from the one side gamma buffer circuit 122.
[0067] Here, the buffer voltage relay circuit 310 to be described later may include a plurality of lines, and each line may have an internal resistance.
[0068] Therefore, when the buffer voltage relay circuit 310 transmits the first one-side gamma reference voltage to the opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 so that the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 shares the first one-side gamma reference voltage, compared with the M one-side buffer voltages, the voltage change amount increases due to the very large current value and the internal resistance of the line.
[0069] Therefore, the deviation between the first one side gamma reference voltage used in the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 and the first one side gamma reference voltage used in the one side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 132 may also increase. Therefore, the other end of the first one side line 112 b and the other end of the first opposite side line 212 b are electrically isolated from each other, the other end of the second one side line 112 d and the other end of the second opposite side line 212 d are electrically isolated from each other, and the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 232 uses the first opposite side gamma reference voltage.
[0070] Here, the value of the first pair-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the first one-side gamma reference voltage must coincide with each other, and the value of the Nth pair-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the Nth one-side gamma reference voltage must also coincide with each other.

[0083] The second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 may include an opposite-side power input circuit 214 , an opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 224 , and an opposite-side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 234 .
[0084] The opposite side power input circuit 214 may output a first opposite side gamma reference voltage and an Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage in a state electrically isolated from the one side power input circuit 114. Here, the first opposite side gamma reference voltage may correspond to the first one side gamma reference voltage, and the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage may correspond to the Nth one side gamma reference voltage.

[0087] The opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 234 may include a plurality of resistors connected in series to each other, and may use resistors to separate the first opposite side gamma reference voltage output from the opposite side gamma buffer circuit 224 from the M opposite side buffer voltages, thereby generating a second opposite side gamma reference voltage to an N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage.

[0090] The output line OL of the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 can be supplied to multiple switch arrays included in the second channel circuit 22: the second opposite side gamma reference voltage generated by the opposite side gamma reference voltage generation circuit 234 to the N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage, and the first opposite side gamma reference voltage and the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage output from the opposite side power input circuit 214.
[0091] In the second embodiment, the reasons why the other ends of the first side wire 114b and the first pair of side wires 214b are electrically isolated from each other and the other ends of the second side wire 114d and the second pair of side wires 214d are electrically isolated from each other are the same as those described in the first embodiment.
[0092] On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the reason why the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 224 uses M one-side voltage divisions to output M opposite-side buffer voltages is as follows.
[0093] First, in the case where the opposite-side power input circuit 214 includes a resistor array for generating an opposite-side voltage division, the resistors in the first one-side resistor array 114e included in the one-side power input circuit 114 and the resistors included in the resistor array of the opposite-side power input circuit 214 may have different manufacturing tolerances, and this may generate a deviation in the voltage division between the two sides, thereby causing a deviation in the gamma reference voltage between the two sides.
[0094] In the second embodiment, in order to eliminate the deviation of the gamma reference voltage, the M one-side voltage dividers generated by the first one-side resistor array 114e are also used in the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 224 to generate the opposite-side buffer voltage, thereby eliminating the deviation of the gamma reference voltage between the two sides caused by the deviation of the voltage divider between the two sides.
[0095] On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the value of the first pair-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the first one-side gamma reference voltage must agree with each other, and the value of the Nth pair-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the Nth one-side gamma reference voltage must also agree with each other.
[0096] To this end, in the second embodiment, the first input voltage Vin1 input to the first one-side input buffer 114a of the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 and the third input voltage Vin3 input to the first opposite-side input buffer 214a of the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 can be adjusted to be consistent with each other, so that the value of the first opposite-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the first one-side gamma reference voltage are consistent with each other. Similarly, the second input voltage Vin2 input to the second one-side input buffer 114c of the first gamma reference voltage output circuit 100 and the fourth input voltage Vin4 input to the second opposite-side input buffer 214c of the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 can be adjusted to be consistent with each other, so that the value of the Nth opposite-side gamma reference voltage and the value of the Nth one-side gamma reference voltage are consistent with each other.
[0097] In addition, in the second embodiment, the outputs of the first side input buffer 114a and the first opposite side input buffer 214a can be adjusted so that the value of the first opposite side gamma reference voltage is consistent with the value of the first side gamma reference voltage, and the outputs of the second side input buffer 114c and the second opposite side input buffer 214c can be adjusted so that the value of the Nth opposite side gamma reference voltage is consistent with the value of the Nth side gamma reference voltage.
[0098] Here, the control for making the first input voltage consistent with the third input voltage and the control for making the second input voltage consistent with the fourth input voltage may be performed by the timing control device 4 or a separate power controller (not shown).

[0102] like Figure 4 As shown, the gamma reference voltage output circuit according to the third embodiment can selectively use one-side buffer voltage and one-side voltage division in the second gamma reference voltage output circuit 200 by configuring both buffer voltage relay circuits 332, 336 and 334 including switches s / w and voltage divider relay circuits 342, 344 and 336 including switches s / w.
[0103] In other words, if any one of the switches of the voltage-dividing relay circuit 342, 344, or 336 and the switches of the buffer voltage relay circuit 332, 336, or 334 is turned on, the other may remain turned off. Figure 4 In the embodiment, if the switches of the voltage-dividing relay circuits 342, 344 and 336 are turned on, and if the switches of the buffer voltage relay circuits 332, 336 and 334 are turned off, the opposite side gamma buffer circuit 440 can receive M one-side voltage dividers from the voltage-dividing relay circuits 342, 344 and 336, and can output M opposite side buffer voltages, and the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit can use the M opposite side buffer voltages and the first opposite side gamma reference voltage V1' to generate the second opposite side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage.
[0104] On the other hand, if the switches of the buffer voltage relay circuits 332, 336 and 334 are turned on, and if the switches of the voltage divider relay circuits 342, 344 and 336 are turned off, the opposite side gamma reference voltage generating circuit 450 can receive M one-side buffer voltages from the buffer voltage relay circuits 332, 336 and 334, and can use the M one-side buffer voltages and the first opposite side gamma reference voltage V1' to generate the second opposite side gamma reference voltage to the N-1th opposite side gamma reference voltage.
[0105] In the third embodiment having the above-described structure, the opposite-side resistor array 432 included in the opposite-side power input circuit 430 may be electrically isolated from the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 440. Here, a one-side switch may be provided between the one-side resistor array 412 included in the one-side power input circuit 410 and the one-side gamma buffer circuit 420, and an opposite-side switch may be provided between the opposite-side resistor array 432 included in the opposite-side power input circuit 430 and the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 440. In addition, when the data driving device 2 operates, the one-side switch may always be turned on, and the opposite-side switch may always be turned off, so that the opposite-side resistor array 432 and the opposite-side gamma buffer circuit 440 may be electrically isolated from each other.
[0106] In the third embodiment, control for turning on / off switches included in each of the buffer voltage relay circuits 332, 336 and 334 and the voltage dividing relay circuits 342, 344 and 336 may be performed by the timing control device 4 or a separate controller (not shown).
