[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The described technical solutions are only used to explain and illustrate the ideas of the present application and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a display device, including: a display panel 110 and a driving circuit 120 , wherein the driving circuit 120 is electrically connected to the display panel 110 .

[0031] Among them, the display panel 110 includes a plurality of pixels 111 arranged in an array. The time for the display panel to display a frame of an image includes a pixel row driving stage for a plurality of rows of pixels. Each pixel row driving stage includes a scanning stage and a transition stage. The scanning stage is a stage for scanning a row of pixels 111, and the transition stage is a stage for stopping scanning the pixels 111.

[0032] The driving circuit 120 includes a control module 121 and a driving module 122 .

[0033] Specifically, the control module 121 is used to obtain the transition grayscale value during the scanning phase of the Nth row of pixels, where N is a positive integer. The control module 121 is also used to obtain the transition grayscale value and the first overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels. Among them, the control module 121 includes a timing controller. That is, the timing controller can be used for the second target grayscale value of the Nth row of pixels 111, and for obtaining the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels 111, and for calculating the transition grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value, and obtaining the first overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels.

[0034] Specifically, the timing controller is further used to store an over-driving lookup table, which includes a correspondence between the second target grayscale value (transition grayscale value), the first target grayscale value, and the first over-driving grayscale value.

[0035] Specifically, the timing controller is also used to output an output enable (OE) signal to the driving module 122. The width of any pulse of the enable signal is equal to the duration of any scanning phase, and the interval between two adjacent pulses in the enable signal is equal to the duration of any transition phase. Further, the driving frequency in the scanning phase is equal to the pulse frequency of the enable signal. The driving frequency in the transition phase is equal to the frequency of the interval between two adjacent pulses in the enable signal.

[0036] Specifically, the driving module 122 is used to provide the first data voltage to the N+1th row of pixels 111 according to the transition grayscale value during the transition phase, and to provide the second data voltage to the N+1th row of pixels 111 according to the first overdrive grayscale value during the scanning phase of the N+1th row of pixels 111. The driving module 122 includes a source driver chip 1221.

[0037] Specifically, the driving module 122 also includes a gate driving chip 1222, which is used to provide a high-potential scanning signal to a corresponding row of pixels 111 in each scanning stage, so that the switching thin film transistors of multiple pixels 111 in the row of pixels 111 are turned on, so that the data signal can be input into the pixel circuit of the pixel 111, thereby realizing charging of the pixel 111.

[0038] Specifically, the display panel 100 further includes a plurality of scan lines G arranged at intervals along the first direction Y, and a plurality of data lines D arranged at intervals along the second direction X. The scan lines G are electrically connected to the gate driver chip 1222 to provide scan signals to the corresponding row pixels 111. The data lines D are electrically connected to the source driver chip 1221 to provide data signals to the corresponding column pixels 111.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the scanning phase t01 and the transition phase t02 are sequentially performed within one frame time. The source driver chip provides the data voltage Data to the pixel. At the beginning of the transition phase t02 (i.e., when the Nth row of pixels ends scanning), the first data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the transition grayscale value, and at the beginning of the scanning phase t01 of the N+1th row of pixels (i.e., when the N+1th row of pixels starts scanning), the second data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the first overdrive grayscale value.

[0040] Specifically, the gate driver chip provides a scanning signal Gate to the pixel. For example, in the scanning phase t01 of the Nth row of pixels, the gate driver chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N to the scanning line electrically connected to the Nth row of pixels; in the scanning phase t01 of the N+1th row of pixels, the gate driver chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N+1 to the scanning line electrically connected to the N+1th row of pixels. In the scanning phase t01 of the N+2th row of pixels, the gate driver chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N+2 to the scanning line electrically connected to the N+2th row of pixels. In the scanning phase t01 of the N+3th row of pixels, the gate driver chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N+3 to the scanning line electrically connected to the N+3th row of pixels. In the scanning phase t01 of the N+4th row of pixels, the gate driver chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N+4 to the scanning line electrically connected to the N+4th row of pixels. Sequentially, in the scanning phase t01 of the N+Mth row of pixels, the gate driving chip provides a high-potential scanning signal Gate N+M to the scanning line electrically connected to the N+Mth row of pixels, where M is a positive integer greater than 4.

[0041] Specifically, the duration of the scanning phase t01 is equal to the pulse width of the output enable (Output Enable, referred to as OE) signal output by the timing controller. The driving frequency of the scanning phase t01 is equal to the pulse frequency of the enable signal. The duration of the transition phase t02 is equal to the interval between two adjacent pulses of the enable signal. The driving frequency of the transition phase t02 is equal to the frequency of the interval between two adjacent pulses in the enable signal.

[0042] Specifically, if the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the N+1th row is greater than the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the Nth row, the source driver chip provides the first data voltage to the pixels in the N+1th row (i.e., the data signal output by the source driver chip is at least transmitted to the position of the pixels in the N+1th row) in the transition phase t02. And in the scanning phase t01 of the pixels in the N+1th row, the second data voltage is provided to the pixels in the N+1th row. Among them, the initial data voltage provided by the source driver chip to the pixels in the Nth row is less than the first data voltage, and the first data voltage is less than the second data voltage.

[0043] Correspondingly, if the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the N+1th row is less than the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the Nth row, the source driver chip provides the first data voltage to the pixels in the N+1th row in the transition phase t02. And in the scanning phase t01 of the pixels in the N+1th row, the source driver chip provides the second data voltage to the pixels in the N+1th row. The initial data voltage provided by the source driver chip to the pixels in the Nth row is greater than the first data voltage, and the first data voltage is greater than the second data voltage.

[0044] In the display device provided by the present application, each pixel row driving phase is set to include a scanning phase t01 and a transition phase t02, that is, a transition phase t02 is set between the scanning phase t01 corresponding to the Nth row of pixels and the scanning phase t01 corresponding to the N+1th row of pixels, and in the transition phase t02, a first data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the acquired transition grayscale value, wherein the difference between the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels is less than the difference between the second target grayscale value of the Nth row of pixels and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels, and at the same time, a first overdriving grayscale value corresponding to the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels is obtained, and in the scanning phase t01 of the N+1th row of pixels, a second data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the first overdriving grayscale value, thereby shortening the charging response time of the N+1th row of pixels to improve the charging rate of the pixels while ensuring the accuracy of the pixel charging, thereby improving the charging effect of the pixels.

[0045] like Figure 3As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for driving a display panel, wherein the display panel includes a plurality of pixels arranged in an array, and the time for the display panel to display a frame of an image includes a pixel row driving stage for a plurality of rows of pixels, and each pixel row driving stage includes a scanning stage and a transition stage, wherein the scanning stage is a stage for scanning a row of pixels, and the transition stage is a stage for stopping scanning the pixels, and the driving method includes:

[0046] S10 . In the scanning phase of the Nth row of pixels, a transition grayscale value is obtained, where N is a positive integer.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, step S10 includes the following sub-steps:

[0048] S101 , obtaining a second target grayscale value of pixels in the Nth row, and obtaining a first target grayscale value of pixels in the N+1th row, where N is a positive integer.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the value of N includes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10... For example, N is 1, the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the first row is obtained, and the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the second row is obtained. Among them, if the first target grayscale value is 0 or 255, and the second target grayscale value is any grayscale value between 0 and 255, then the overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is equal to the first target grayscale value.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, the second target grayscale value is not equal to the first target grayscale value. If the second target grayscale value is equal to the first target grayscale value, the overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is equal to the first target grayscale value, so as to reduce the acquisition and calculation process of the control module and reduce the power consumption of the display device.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present application, the difference between the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value. The value of the preset threshold value is between 1 and 16, and the value of the preset threshold value includes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. That is, if the difference between the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is less than the preset threshold value, the overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is equal to the first target grayscale value. For example, the second target grayscale value is 16 and the first target grayscale value is 32. At this time, the difference between the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is equal to 16, and the overdrive grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is equal to 32.

[0052] S102 , calculating a transition grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value.

[0053] As an implementation method, the transition grayscale value is equal to the average grayscale value of the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value. That is, the average grayscale value of the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is calculated to obtain the transition grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value. For example, if the second target grayscale value is 60 and the first target grayscale value is 120, then the transition grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is: (60+120) / 2=90.

[0054] As another embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, step S102 includes the following sub-steps:

[0055] S1021. Calculate the sum of the absolute values ​​of multiple grayscale differences corresponding to each second target grayscale value and multiple first target grayscale values ​​according to an overdrive lookup table, wherein the overdrive lookup table includes grayscale differences between second overdrive grayscale values ​​and first target grayscale values ​​corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, according to the second target grayscale values ​​of the plurality of binding points and the first target grayscale values ​​of the plurality of binding points, the grayscale difference between the second overdrive grayscale value and the first target grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value of any binding point and the first target grayscale value of any binding point is obtained. For example, if the second target grayscale value is 96 and the first target grayscale value is 24, then the grayscale difference between the second overdrive grayscale value and the first target grayscale value corresponding to the second target grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is -6, that is, the second overdrive grayscale value is 24-6=18.

[0057] In an embodiment of the present application, the absolute value sum of the second target grayscale value of each binding point and the plurality of grayscale difference values ​​corresponding to the first target grayscale values ​​of the plurality of binding points is calculated. Figure 6 As shown, for example, the second target grayscale value is 112, and the sum of the absolute values ​​of the grayscale differences corresponding to the grayscale 112 and the first target grayscale values ​​of the plurality of binding points is 1+4+7+9+5+4+3=33.

[0058] S1022: Obtain a minimum value among the sums of the absolute values ​​of a plurality of grayscale differences.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present application, the sum of the absolute values ​​of the grayscale values ​​of multiple columns is obtained respectively, and the minimum value is selected. For example, the second target grayscale value is 112, and the sum of the absolute values ​​of the grayscale differences corresponding to the grayscale 112 and the first target grayscale values ​​of multiple binding points is 33. The second target grayscale value is 80, and the sum of the absolute values ​​of the grayscale differences corresponding to the grayscale 80 and the first target grayscale values ​​of multiple binding points is 116. The second target grayscale value is 144, and the sum of the absolute values ​​of the grayscale differences corresponding to the grayscale 144 and the first target grayscale values ​​of multiple binding points is 56. It can be seen that the minimum value is 33.

[0060] S1023 . Obtain a transition grayscale value according to a second target grayscale value corresponding to the minimum value.

[0061] For example, the minimum value is 33, and the grayscale differences corresponding to 33 are respectively -1, -4, -7, -9, -5, 4, and 3. The second target grayscale value corresponding to these grayscale differences is 112. Therefore, the transition grayscale value is 112.

[0062] S20 . In a transition phase, providing a first data voltage to pixels in the N+1th row according to a transition grayscale value.

[0063] like Figure 7 As shown, step S20 includes the following sub-steps:

[0064] S201 . Obtain a transition brightness value corresponding to a transition grayscale value according to a preset grayscale-brightness lookup table, where the grayscale-brightness lookup table includes a correspondence between grayscale and brightness.

[0065] S202 . Obtain a first data voltage value corresponding to a transition brightness value according to a preset brightness-voltage lookup table, where the brightness-voltage lookup table includes a correspondence between brightness and voltage.

[0066] S203 . In a transition phase, provide a first data voltage to pixels in the N+1th row according to the first data voltage value.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, if the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the N+1th row is greater than the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the Nth row, the initial data voltage provided to the pixels in the Nth row during the scanning phase of the pixels in the Nth row is less than the first data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the transition phase (that is, the data signal needs to be transmitted to at least the pixels in the N+1th row).

[0068] Correspondingly, if the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels is less than the second target grayscale value of the Nth row of pixels, the initial data voltage provided to the Nth row of pixels during the scanning phase of the Nth row of pixels is greater than the first data voltage provided to the N+1th row of pixels during the transition phase.

[0069] S30 , obtaining a first over-driving grayscale value corresponding to a transition grayscale value and a first target grayscale value of pixels in the N+1th row.

[0070] like Figure 8 As shown, step S30 includes the following sub-steps:

[0071] S301 . Obtain a grayscale difference value corresponding to a transition grayscale value and a first target grayscale value according to a preset overdrive lookup table.

[0072] For example, if the transition grayscale value is 112 and the first target grayscale value is 32, then the grayscale difference between the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value is -9.

[0073] S302 : Calculate the sum of the first target grayscale value and the grayscale difference value to obtain a first overdriving grayscale value.

[0074] For example, the first target grayscale value is 32, and the grayscale difference value is −9. Then, the sum of the first target grayscale value and the grayscale difference value is 23, that is, the first overdrive grayscale value is 23.

[0075] S40 , in a scanning phase of the N+1th row of pixels, providing a second data voltage to the N+1th row of pixels according to the first overdriving grayscale value.

[0076] like Fig. 9 As shown, step S40 includes the following sub-steps:

[0077] S401 . Obtain a target brightness value corresponding to a first overdrive grayscale value according to a preset grayscale-brightness lookup table, where the grayscale-brightness lookup table includes a correspondence between grayscale and brightness.

[0078] S402: Acquire a second data voltage value corresponding to a target brightness value according to a preset brightness-voltage lookup table, where the brightness-voltage lookup table includes a correspondence between brightness and voltage.

[0079] S403 , in the scanning phase of the N+1th row of pixels, providing the second data voltage to the N+1th row of pixels according to the second data voltage value.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, if the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the N+1th row is greater than the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the Nth row, the initial data voltage provided to the pixels in the Nth row during the scanning phase of the pixels in the Nth row is less than the first data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the transition phase (that is, the data signal needs to be transmitted to at least the pixels in the N+1th row), and the first data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the transition phase is less than the second data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the scanning phase of the pixels in the N+1th row.

[0081] Correspondingly, if the first target grayscale value of the pixels in the N+1th row is less than the second target grayscale value of the pixels in the Nth row, the initial data voltage provided to the pixels in the Nth row during the scanning phase of the pixels in the Nth row is greater than the first data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the transition phase, and the first data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the transition phase is greater than the second data voltage provided to the pixels in the N+1th row during the scanning phase of the pixels in the N+1th row.

[0082] like Fig.10As shown, the charging response curve of two adjacent rows of pixels (i.e., the change of the data voltage Data corresponding to the change of the time Time) is that in the scanning stage t01 of the N+1 row of pixels, the time required for the N+1 row of pixels to switch from the transition grayscale value to the first overdrive grayscale value is less than or equal to half of the duration of any scanning stage t01, that is, the time required to switch from the first data voltage data1 to the second data voltage data2 is less than or equal to half of the duration of the scanning stage. Thus, the charging rate of the pixels is ensured and the display problem caused by insufficient charging is improved.

[0083] In the driving method of the display panel provided in the present application, each pixel row driving phase is set to include a scanning phase t01 and a transition phase t02, that is, a transition phase t02 is set between the scanning phase t01 corresponding to the Nth row of pixels and the scanning phase t01 corresponding to the N+1th row of pixels, and in the transition phase t02, a first data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the acquired transition grayscale value, wherein the difference between the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels is less than the difference between the second target grayscale value of the Nth row of pixels and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels, and at the same time, a first overdriving grayscale value corresponding to the transition grayscale value and the first target grayscale value of the N+1th row of pixels is obtained, and in the scanning phase t01 of the N+1th row of pixels, a second data voltage is provided to the N+1th row of pixels according to the first overdriving grayscale value, thereby shortening the charging response time of the N+1th row of pixels to improve the charging rate of the pixels while ensuring the accuracy of the pixel charging, thereby improving the charging effect of the pixels.

[0084] The above is a detailed introduction to a display panel driving method and a display device provided in the embodiments of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the core idea of ​​the present application, and the above description should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.
