Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid crystal writing technology, and in particular to a liquid crystal writing device and method with voltage switching control function. Background Technology
[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] Currently, liquid crystal writing devices include a conductive layer, a bistable liquid crystal layer, and a substrate layer arranged sequentially from top to bottom; several pixel units are arranged in an array on the substrate layer, and each pixel unit is provided with a pixel electrode and a thin film field-effect transistor (TFT) connected to the pixel electrode.
[0004] The voltage control process of the liquid crystal writing device during erasure includes applying a conduction voltage to the TFT gate, applying an input voltage to the TFT source, thereby inputting a set voltage to the corresponding pixel electrode, and then applying a voltage to the conductive layer to form a voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode, thereby forming an erasure electric field at the position where the pixel electrode and the conductive layer overlap in space to achieve erasure.
[0005] Alternatively, when the liquid crystal writing device performs partial erasure by illumination, a set control voltage and input voltage are applied to the gate and source of the TFT respectively, so that the TFT is in a critical cutoff state. The light of a set intensity is applied to the erasure area, thereby applying voltage to the corresponding pixel electrode and applying voltage to the conductive layer, so as to form a voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode to achieve partial erasure. When the erasure is completed, the applied voltage is removed to complete the discharge.
[0006] It can be seen that voltage selection is required for both the voltage control during erasure and / or the voltage control after erasure to ensure that the voltage of the pixel electrode and the voltage difference between the conductive layers meet the erasure conditions.

[0032] Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a liquid crystal writing device with voltage switching control function. The liquid crystal writing device includes: a conductive layer, a bistable liquid crystal layer and a substrate layer arranged sequentially from top to bottom; wherein, the conductive layer may not be segmented, and a plurality of pixel units are arranged in an array on the substrate layer. Each pixel unit is provided with a pixel electrode and a TFT connected to the pixel electrode. The conduction of the TFT can provide voltage to the pixel electrode connected to it.
[0035] The liquid crystal writing device further includes a processor and a switching switch connected to the processor. The processor receives communication signals and controls the switching switch to switch the voltage of the TFT and the conductive layer according to the communication signals, so as to realize erasure and / or discharge.
[0036] As an alternative implementation, a conduction voltage V is applied to the TFT gate. GON An input voltage is applied to the TFT source electrode, thereby inputting a set voltage to the corresponding pixel electrode. Then, a voltage is applied to the conductive layer to form a voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode. An erasing electric field is formed at the position where the pixel electrode and the conductive layer overlap in space, thereby achieving erasure.
[0037] The voltage control for this erasure process is specifically as follows:
[0038] (1) When the processor does not receive the communication signal of the erase instruction, i.e. the initial state, the voltage difference between each pixel unit of the conductive layer and the base layer is zero.
[0039] (2) When the processor receives the erase command, in the one-key erase state, the voltage switching is used to apply the turn-on voltage to the TFT gate and apply the corresponding voltage to the TFT source and the conductive layer respectively, so as to form a voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode.
[0040] Specifically, during the first half-cycle of voltage application, a turn-on voltage V is applied to the TFT gate of the pixel cell on the substrate. GON A voltage of 0V is applied to the TFT source, and a voltage of V is applied to the conductive layer. SON This creates a voltage difference V between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode. SON .
[0041] During the latter half of the voltage application cycle, a turn-on voltage V is applied to the TFT gate in the pixel cell on the substrate. GON Apply voltage V to the TFT source SON Applying a voltage of 0V to the conductive layer creates a voltage difference V between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode. SON .
[0042] Therefore, when switching between the two erasure states, the voltage of the TFT source and the conductive layer needs to be selected. Thus, in this embodiment, a switching switch is used to switch the voltage of the TFT source and the conductive layer to meet the current erasure state.
[0043] The voltage switching control described above is applied in the one-key erase state. As another optional implementation method, it can also be applied to partial erasure. The voltage control during the erasure process is specifically as follows:
[0044] (1) When the processor does not receive the communication signal of the erase instruction, the voltage difference between each pixel unit of the conductive layer and the base layer is zero.
[0045] (2) When the processor receives the erase command, a conduction voltage V is applied to the TFT source of the local erase area by voltage switching. GON Appropriate voltages are applied to the TFT source electrode and the conductive layer respectively, so that a voltage difference is formed between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode in the locally erased area, while the voltage difference in the remaining areas remains zero. This voltage switching process is consistent with the above, applying voltages of 0V and V to the TFT source electrode. SON Switching between voltages 0V and V, the conductive layer is subjected to voltages 0V and V. SON Switch between modes to suit the current erasure state.
[0046] As an alternative implementation method, in the process of using light to achieve localized erasure:
[0047] After receiving the communication signal for the erase command, the processor controls the application of a set voltage to all or a selected portion of the TFTs to bring them to a critical cutoff state. Simultaneously, a voltage is applied to the conductive layer to create a voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode. Specifically, a voltage of 0V is applied to the TFT gate, and a voltage of V is applied to the TFT source. MINDON Apply voltage V to the conductive layer SONThis creates a voltage difference |V between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode in the area illuminated by the set intensity of light. MINDON -V SON |
[0048] After receiving the communication signal for the discharge command, the processor controls the discharge to be performed using the applied voltage; specifically, a voltage V is applied to the TFT gate. GON Apply voltage V to the TFT source MINDON Alternatively, grounding can be used to apply a voltage V to the conductive layer. MINDON Alternatively, grounding can be used to eliminate the voltage difference between the conductive layer and the pixel electrode.
[0049] Therefore, when switching between the erasure and discharge states in photo-erasing, the voltages of the TFT gate, TFT source, and conductive layer need to be selected; as can be seen from the above process, the TFT gate voltage is 0V, voltage V GON Switching between grounding and voltage, the conductive layer operates at voltage V. MINDON Voltage V SON Switching between erasing and grounding. Therefore, this embodiment uses a switching switch to switch the voltage between the TFT gate and the conductive layer to meet the current erase state and discharge state.
[0050] As an optional implementation, the switching switch is a high-voltage switching switch; this embodiment provides possible models, such as MAX6922, PT6392, etc., but is not limited to these.
[0051] It is understandable that any other possible circuit structure can be used for the switching switch, as long as it can achieve voltage switching of the TFT gate, TFT source and conductive layer. Those skilled in the art can design or select the circuit according to the specific operating conditions, which will not be elaborated here.
[0052] As an optional implementation, the liquid crystal writing device further includes a wireless signal receiving unit that communicates with the erasing element, the wireless signal receiving unit being used to receive communication signals sent by the erasing element.
[0053] As an optional implementation, the erasing device is equipped with a wireless signal transmitting unit, which is activated by a button.
[0054] Alternatively, as another optional implementation, the erasing device is a light erasing device, and the wireless signal transmitting unit is activated after the light unit on the light erasing device meets the triggering conditions or the light unit is triggered to light up.
[0055] The wireless signal transmitting unit transmits a communication signal to the liquid crystal writing device. After receiving the communication signal, the wireless signal receiving unit on the liquid crystal writing device controls the switching switch to switch the corresponding voltage between the TFT and the conductive layer according to the communication signal. During photo erasure, it also receives a second wireless communication signal sent by the photo erasing device to control the removal of the applied voltage.
[0056] As an optional implementation method, such as Figure 2 The diagram shows the wiring schematic of the TFT. The first electrode represents the pixel electrode area where the TFT is connected on the substrate layer, and the second electrode represents the conductive layer. In this embodiment, electrode lines are led out from the substrate layer and the conductive layer respectively to connect a voltage driving circuit that can provide the voltage required by the substrate layer and the conductive layer.
[0057] As an optional implementation, the voltage driving circuit can adopt any other circuit structure that can realize voltage driving, as long as it can achieve the switching of various voltages between the substrate layer and the conductive layer. Those skilled in the art can design or select the circuit according to the specific operating conditions.
