Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of display abnormality testing of a display module, and in particular to a method and device for automatically testing display abnormality of a display module. Background Art

[0002] Currently, during the production process, display module anomaly testing is primarily performed through the following methods: Visual inspection: Directly observe the display module in a dark environment to check for noticeable flickering or brightness changes, observing from different angles and distances, paying attention to the entire screen as well as the edge areas. Professional instrument inspection: Connect an oscilloscope probe to the display module's power pins or related signal lines, set appropriate voltage and time ranges, and observe the waveform. Display anomalies will appear as periodic voltage fluctuations on the oscilloscope. Display anomaly meter testing: Illuminate the display module with an anomaly meter and adjust the anomaly meter's frequency to match the display module's display anomaly frequency. When the two frequencies match, the display anomaly will appear static or significantly weakened, allowing the characteristics of the display anomaly to be observed and analyzed.

[0003] However, when the sampling oscilloscope performs display abnormality testing, operating the load and connecting the signal lines can easily damage the equipment and cause inaccurate test results.

[0025] In the prior art, when testing a display module, there are problems such as complex operations and inaccurate test results.

[0026] In order to solve the above problems, a method and device for automatically testing display abnormalities of a display module are proposed.

[0027] In the first aspect, a method for automatically testing display abnormalities of a display module is provided. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a specific embodiment of a method for automatically testing display abnormalities of a display module in this application; it includes: Step 100, static test, configure fixed gain parameters, obtain a RAW format image of the display module to be tested in a dark environment, divide the RAW format image into different channel images according to color, obtain the color brightness average value of each first block area of ​​a specified size of the current channel image, obtain the first maximum value, first minimum value and first difference of the first color brightness average value of the current channel image, and determine whether the display module has a static abnormality based on the first maximum value, first minimum value and first difference of the color brightness average value.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A flow chart of a specific embodiment of step 100; step 100 includes: step 110, obtaining a RAW format image; step 120, dividing the RAW format image into an R channel image, a G channel image, a GR channel image and a GB channel image.

[0029] In this embodiment, a fixed gain coefficient is configured in a dark environment, and channel division is performed under the fixed gain coefficient to obtain images of different color channels.

[0042] In an embodiment of the present application, by configuring a fixed gain parameter, a RAW format image of the display module to be tested in a dark environment is obtained, the RAW format image is divided into different channel images according to color, a static test is performed on the display module to be tested, and a second square area of ​​a specified size in the central area of ​​each channel image is used as a unit to continuously adjust the gain parameter, obtain the second color brightness average value corresponding to each step, and perform a dynamic test, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the display module test and solving the problems in the prior art of complex operation and inaccurate test results when testing the display module.
