Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of LCD module technology, and in particular to a charging optimization method, system, electronic device, and storage medium based on GOA timing-adaptive refresh rate. Background Technology

[0002] LCD panels widely adopt GOA technology, which integrates the gate drive circuit directly onto the array substrate, eliminating the need for the bonding process of the gate drive IC and enabling a narrow bezel design.

[0003] In related technologies, the core adjustable parameters in GOA timing design currently include: the pulse width and period of the clock signal, the non-overlapping interval of adjacent clock phases, and the setup / hold time of the row enable signal. These parameters together determine the effective charging time of each row of pixels. Traditionally, a fixed set of GOA timing parameters is used for the entire refresh rate range, which can lead to overcharging leakage in the display panel at low frequencies and poor charging at high frequencies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a charging optimization method, system, electronic device and storage medium based on GOA timing-adaptive refresh rate, which can take into account the charging quality of the display panel at both high and low frequencies.

[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: The first aspect of this application provides a charging optimization method based on GOA timing to adapt refresh rate, comprising: configuring several GOA timing parameters, grouping them into groups, and outputting a frequency range table; obtaining target refresh rate information, matching the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and calling the target GOA timing parameters; writing the target GOA timing parameters into a GOA control register group, and outputting the display screen.

[0006] The process of obtaining the target refresh rate information includes: responding to a refresh rate switching request and receiving a screen parameter configuration instruction; parsing the screen parameter configuration instruction to obtain the target refresh rate information.

[0007] The step of matching the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table and calling the target GOA timing parameters includes: matching the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table to obtain the index of the frequency range table to which the target refresh rate information belongs; scanning the frequency range table according to the index and calling the target GOA timing parameters.

[0008] The method further includes: loading initial refresh rate information, matching the initial refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and calling the initial GOA timing parameters.

[0009] A second aspect of this application provides a charging optimization system based on GOA timing adaptation refresh rate, comprising: a configuration module for configuring several GOA timing parameters, grouping them into groups, and outputting a frequency range table; a matching module for obtaining target refresh rate information, matching the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and calling the target GOA timing parameters; and a writing module for writing the target GOA timing parameters into a GOA control register group and outputting a display screen.

[0010] The matching module is also used to respond to refresh rate switching requests, receive screen parameter configuration instructions, and parse the screen parameter configuration instructions to obtain the target refresh rate information.

[0011] The matching module is further configured to match the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table to obtain the index of the frequency range table to which the target refresh rate information belongs; and scan the frequency range table according to the index to call the target GOA timing parameters.

[0012] It also includes an initialization module, which is used to load initial refresh rate information, match the initial refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and call the initial GOA timing parameters.

[0013] A third aspect of this application provides an electronic device, comprising: Processor; and A memory that stores executable code, which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform the method described above.

[0014] A fourth aspect of this application provides a computer-readable storage medium having executable code stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor of an electronic device, causes the processor to perform the method described above.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages: This application obtains the refresh rate in real time and matches it with a pre-configured frequency range table to obtain the corresponding GOA timing parameters, thereby solving the problem that a single fixed timing cannot simultaneously ensure the charging quality of high and low frequencies.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] Embodiments of this application will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make this application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this application to those skilled in the art.

[0019] It should be understood that although the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., may be used in this application to describe various information, this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0020] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] Currently, the core adjustable parameters in GOA timing design include: the pulse width and period of the clock signal, the non-overlapping interval of adjacent clock phases, and the setup / hold time of the row enable signal. These parameters together determine the effective charging time of each row of pixels. Traditionally, a fixed set of GOA timing parameters is used for the entire refresh rate range, which can lead to overcharging leakage in the display panel at low frequencies and poor charging at high frequencies.

[0022] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a charging optimization method, system, electronic device, and storage medium based on GOA timing-adaptive refresh rate, which can balance the charging quality of the display panel at both high and low frequencies.

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a charging optimization method based on GOA timing-adaptive refresh rate, as shown in an embodiment of this application.

[0025] See Figure 1 A charging optimization method based on GOA timing-adapted refresh rate includes: Step S101: Configure several GOA timing parameters, group them, and output a frequency range table.

[0026] It should be noted that N sets of independently configurable GOA timing parameters are pre-stored in the TCON's internal non-volatile memory, where N≥2. Each set of parameters includes at least: clock signal period and pulse width, multi-phase clock overlap / non-overlap interval (affecting line switching transition), relative delay of the output enable signal, and precharge pulse width. The GOA timing parameters are then grouped to obtain a frequency range table. Specifically, Group A: adapts to the 48Hz~90Hz range. Optimizes low-frequency RC leakage by appropriately adjusting the effective charging window or clock slope to move the pixel operating point away from the RC-sensitive area and back to the saturation plateau region, suppressing the periodic dark band problem along the COF boundary from a timing perspective. Group B: adapts to the 91Hz~144Hz range. Standard mid-frequency band, using balanced timing parameters. Group C: adapts to the 145Hz~240Hz range. Addresses insufficient high-frequency charging by maximizing the effective charging time ratio, such as reducing the non-overlap interval and optimizing precharge timing. The refresh rate range can be freely set.

[0027] Step S102: Obtain the target refresh rate information, match the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and call the target GOA timing parameters.

[0028] It should be noted that the target refresh rate information of the monitor, which is changed by the user through the operating system or graphics card control panel, is obtained, and the target GOA timing parameters are called from the frequency range table.

[0029] Step S103: Write the target GOA timing parameters into the GOA control register group and output the display screen.

[0030] It should be noted that TCON reads all parameters of the matched GOA timing group from non-volatile memory and writes them to the GOA control register group. Since refresh rate switching itself is accompanied by a black screen and screen parameter reload process executed by the system, TCON can safely complete the timing parameter loading during this period. The new parameters take effect synchronously when the display resumes, without the need for additional timing switching logic.

[0031] Figure 2 for Figure 1 A more detailed implementation method, a charging optimization method based on GOA timing adaptation refresh rate, further includes: Step S201: Configure several GOA timing parameters, group them, and output a frequency range table.

[0032] The description here can be found in step S101, and will not be repeated here.

[0033] Step S202: Load the initial refresh rate information, match the initial refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and call the initial GOA timing parameters.

[0034] It should be noted that after the display device powers on, the TCON loads all N sets of GOA timing parameters and segment boundary frequencies from the Flash memory into its internal registers. The motherboard SOC sends the initial screen parameter configuration to the TCON, which parses the initial target refresh rate and matches it with the corresponding GOA timing group. After loading, the screen is output normally.

[0035] Step S203: Respond to the refresh rate switching request and receive the screen parameter configuration instruction; parse the screen parameter configuration instruction to obtain the target refresh rate information. Match the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table to obtain the index of the frequency range table to which the target refresh rate information belongs; scan the frequency range table according to the index and call the target GOA timing parameters.

[0036] It should be noted that when a user selects the target refresh rate through the operating system or graphics card control panel, the motherboard SOC executes the screen parameter switching process, sending a target screen parameter configuration command to the TCON via a standard communication interface. This command carries the target refresh rate information. The TCON parses the target refresh rate information from the received screen parameter configuration command and identifies the GOA timing group index to which the target refresh rate belongs. Based on the index, the TCON reads all parameters of the target timing group from its internal non-volatile memory and writes them into the GOA control register group.

[0037] Step S204: Write the target GOA timing parameters into the GOA control register group and output the display screen.

[0038] The description here can be found in step S103, and will not be repeated here.

The matching module 200 is used to obtain target refresh rate information, match the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table, and call the target GOA timing parameters. The writing module 300 is used to write the target GOA timing parameters into the GOA control register group and output the display screen.

[0043] See Figure 3 The matching module 200 is also used to match the target refresh rate information with the frequency range table to obtain the index of the frequency range table to which the target refresh rate information belongs; based on the index, the frequency range table is scanned and the target GOA timing parameters are called.
