Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of displays, and in particular, to a backlight unit and a display device. Background Art
[0002] The Chinese full name of Mini-LED is "sub-millimeter light-emitting diode". Mini LED displays can be divided into Mini LED direct display and Mini LED backlight. Mini LED backlight control requires the cooperation of a backlight control chip and a backlight driver chip. Generally, one backlight control chip is required for each screen, and its function is similar to a "total control switch" for controlling the backlight source. The backlight driver chip can be divided into types such as single-channel, 4-channel, 8-channel, 16-channel, etc. One channel corresponds to one partition, and one partition can cover multiple LED lamp beads.
[0003] In the existing Mini-LED backlight design process, the power supply required for the backlight panel includes the forward operating voltage VLED of the LED and the voltage VDD (Virtual Device Driver) required by the Mini-LED driver chip. Among them, the VLED voltage is generated by the main power supply board of the whole machine and is directly input to the lamp board through a connector via the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located. The power supply board outputs 12V (usually 12V, and other voltages are not excluded) voltage to the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, and is converted into 3.3V (usually 3.3V - 5V) by the DC-DC converter on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located and then input to the lamp board through a connector. In the above lamp board design process, at least two power supplies, VLED and VDD, need to be considered. After VLED is generated by the power supply board, it reaches the lamp board via the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located. VLED only undergoes a connection conversion on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, and no electrical characteristic change adjustment is performed on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, which results in waste of wires and connectors.

[0045] The full Chinese name of Mini-LED is "sub-millimeter light-emitting diode". Mini LED displays can be divided into two types: Mini LED direct display and Mini LED backlight. Mini LED backlight control requires the cooperation of a backlight control chip and a backlight driver chip. Generally, one backlight control chip is needed for each screen, and its function is similar to a "main control switch" for controlling the backlight source. Backlight driver chips can be divided into types such as single-channel, 4-channel, 8-channel, and 16-channel. One channel corresponds to one zone, and one zone can cover multiple LED beads.
[0046] In the existing Mini-LED backlight design process, the power supply required for the backlight panel includes the forward operating voltage VLED of the LED and the voltage VDD (Virtual Device Driver) required by the Mini-LED driver chip. Among them, the VLED voltage is generated by the main power supply board of the whole machine and is directly input to the lamp board through a connector via the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located. The power supply board outputs 12V (usually 12V, but other voltages are not excluded) voltage to the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, and is converted into 3.3V (usually 3.3V - 5V) by the DC-DC converter on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located and then input to the lamp board through a connector. In the above lamp board design process, at least two power supplies, VLED and VDD, need to be considered. After VLED is generated by the power supply board, it reaches the lamp board via the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located. VLED only undergoes a connection conversion on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, and no electrical characteristic change adjustment is performed on the circuit board where the backlight control chip is located, which results in waste of wires and connectors.
[0047] In response to the above technical problems, as Figure 2 shown, the present application proposes a backlight unit 200, which is characterized by including a power supply board 201, a backlight control board 202, a backlight driver chip 203, and a light-emitting unit 204:
[0048] The power output terminal of the power supply board 201 is connected to the power supply terminal of the backlight control board 202;
[0049] The power output terminal of the backlight control board 202 is connected to the power supply terminal of the backlight driver chip 203;
[0050] The power supply terminal of the light-emitting unit 204 is connected to the power output terminal of the backlight driver chip 203.
[0051] The power supply board 201 is an important part of the display driver system, responsible for controlling the power supply aspect of the driving circuit, that is, the turning on and off of the switching tube, and boosting the voltage of the transformer when lighting to provide sufficient driving voltage, and maintaining the stability of the output current during the operation of the circuit. In the backlight unit 200 of the present application, the power supply board 201 provides voltage for the operation of the backlight control board 202, the backlight driving chip 203, and the light-emitting driving of the light-emitting unit 204. In the embodiment of the present application, the output end of the power supply board 201 is connected to the power supply end of the backlight control board 202.
[0052] After processing the voltage provided by the power supply board 201, the backlight control board 202 transmits the voltage from the power output end to the backlight driving chip 203. The backlight driving chip 203 operates under the drive of the voltage and drives the light emission of the light-emitting unit 204. Among them, the light-emitting unit 204 includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The light emission of the LED requires a positive voltage VLED and a driving voltage VDD. In the present application, both the positive voltage VLED and the driving voltage VDD of the LED are provided by the backlight driving chip 203.
[0053] In the backlight unit provided in the above embodiment, the backlight unit includes a power supply board, a backlight control board, a backlight driving chip, and a light-emitting unit: the power output end of the power supply board is connected to the power supply end of the backlight control board; the power output end of the backlight control board is connected to the power supply end of the backlight driving chip; the power supply end of the light-emitting unit is connected to the power output end of the backlight driving chip. Compared with the prior art in which the output end of the backlight control board is connected to the power supply end of the light-emitting unit, in the present application, the power output end of the backlight driving chip is connected to the power supply end of the light-emitting unit, and the backlight driving chip provides voltage for the light-emitting unit, reducing the traces on the backlight control board, and arranging the power supply traces of the light-emitting unit within the trace range of the backlight driving chip, avoiding the trace avoidance between the power supply traces of multiple light-emitting units.
[0054] In one of the embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the backlight driving chip 203 includes a power supply port 2031, a boosting module 2032, and a power output port 2033;
[0055] The power supply port 2031 is connected to the power output end of the backlight control board 202; the input end of the boosting module 2032 is connected to the power supply port 2031, the output end of the boosting module 2032 is connected to the power output port 2033, and the power output port 2033 is connected to the power end of the light-emitting unit 204.
[0056] Since the VLED is the power supply for LED lighting, the required current is usually very large (usually 13~60V), while the voltage supplied by the power board 201 to the backlight driver chip 203 through the backlight control board 202 is usually small (usually 3.3V - 5V). Therefore, a boost module 2032 is added to the backlight driver chip 203 to process the voltage through the boost module 2032 and output VLED that can ensure the normal operation of the light-emitting unit 204.
[0057] Specifically, the backlight driver chip 203 is connected to the power output terminal of the backlight control board 202 through the power supply port 2031 to obtain power; then, after being boosted by the boost module 2032, it provides VLED for the light-emitting unit 204 from the power output port 2033. The boost module 2032 can not only increase the voltage but also has functions such as filtering and voltage stabilization to provide a stable and appropriate voltage for the positive electrode of the light-emitting unit.
[0058] In one embodiment, the backlight driver chip 203 further includes a buck module 2034. The input end of the buck module 2034 is connected to the power supply port 2031, and the output end of the buck module 2034 is connected to the internal power consumption module 2035.
[0059] The backlight driver chip 203 is used to drive the light-emitting unit 204, and the internal power consumption module 2035 is the general term for other modules required for the internal implementation of the backlight driver chip to achieve driving. Usually, the working voltage required by the internal power consumption module 2035 is not large. Therefore, after processing the obtained power supply through the buck module 2034, it supplies power to the internal power consumption module 2035.
[0060] The internal power consumption module 2035 includes circuits or electronic components such as an oscillator OSC and undervoltage lockout UVLO required for the normal operation of the backlight driver chip.
[0061] In the backlight unit provided by the above embodiment, a buck module is added inside the backlight driver chip to meet the power consumption requirements of the internal power consumption module, so that all the power consumption of the backlight driver chip can be satisfied with only one input for the normal operation of the backlight driver chip. Wiring on the backlight driver chip can effectively reduce the jumper design between different backlight driver chips.
[0062] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the backlight driver chip 203 further includes an I / O port 2036 and a channel port 2037, and the internal power consumption module 2035 includes an I / O interface circuit 3501, a digital logic circuit 3502, and an analog drive circuit 3503;
[0063] The power supply terminals of the I / O interface circuit 3501, the power supply terminals of the digital logic circuit 3502, and the power supply terminals of the analog drive circuit 3503 are all connected to the output terminal of the buck module 2034;
[0064] The I / O port 2036 is connected to the input terminal of the I / O interface circuit 3501. The output terminal of the I / O interface circuit 3501 is connected to the input terminal of the digital logic circuit 3502. The output terminal of the digital logic circuit 3502 is connected to the input terminal of the analog drive circuit 3503. The output terminal of the analog drive circuit 3503 is connected to the channel port 2037, and the channel port 2037 is connected to the drive terminal of the light-emitting unit 204.
[0065] Among them, the I / O port 2036 is used for data transmission, and transmits the acquired data to the I / O interface circuit 3501. The data is processed by the digital logic circuit 3502 and the analog drive circuit 3503 in sequence, and the drive voltage is output to the channel port 2037. The channel port 2037 is connected to the drive terminal of the light-emitting unit 204. For example, if the light-emitting unit includes LED lamp beads, the channel port 2037 is connected to the negative electrode of the LED lamp bead to drive the LED to emit light.
[0066] In the backlight unit provided by the above embodiment, the drive data is acquired by the I / O port to drive the light-emitting unit. The buck module provides the working power supply for the drive circuit in the internal power-consuming module, ensuring the drive stability of the light-emitting unit. And due to the existence of the buck module, the drive is completed inside the backlight drive chip, reducing the wiring complexity between the circuits inside the backlight unit.
[0067] In one of the embodiments, there are multiple power output ports 2033 and multiple channel ports 2037 on the backlight drive chip 203. The number of the power output ports 2033 on the backlight drive chip is associated with the channel ports 2037 of the backlight drive chip.
[0068] The backlight drive chip 203 is used to drive the light-emitting unit 204 to emit light. The light-emitting unit 204 includes light-emitting devices, such as LED lamp beads. Usually, there are multiple light-emitting devices in one light-emitting unit 204, and the multiple light-emitting devices are grouped. There are multiple channel ports 2037 in the backlight drive chip 203. The output of each channel port 2037 is controlled by the output of the analog drive circuit 3503. Each channel port 2037 corresponds to a light-emitting partition, and one light-emitting partition can cover one group. As Figure 5 shown, the backlight drive chip 203 has 4 channel ports 2037, and each channel port 2037 is connected to the drive terminal of the light-emitting unit 204.
[0069] The power output port 2033 is connected to the power terminal of the light-emitting unit 204 and provides VLED for the light-emitting unit 204. The VLEDs of all groups of light-emitting devices in the light-emitting unit 204 can be the same or different. Therefore, multiple power output ports 2033 can be provided in the backlight driving chip 203. The number of power output ports 2033 can be set by comprehensively considering the volume of the backlight driving chip, the routing, and the number of channel ports. For example, when the number of channel ports 2037 is large and the required VLED is small, to reduce the volume of the driving IC, only the minimum number of power output ports 2033 that meet the driving requirements can be retained. When the number of channel ports 2037 is small and the required VLED is large, the number of power output ports 2033 can be appropriately increased as an alternative.
[0070] In the backlight unit provided by the above embodiment, when setting the number of power output ports, the volume of the backlight driving chip, the routing, and the number of channel ports are comprehensively considered.
[0071] In one embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the internal power consumption module 2035 further includes a detection circuit 3504 and a control circuit 3505;
[0072] The power supply terminal of the detection circuit 3504 and the power supply terminal of the control circuit are both connected to the output terminal of the buck module 2034;
[0073] The input terminal of the detection circuit 3504 is connected to the output terminal of the analog driving circuit 3503, the output terminal of the detection circuit 3504 is connected to the input terminal of the control circuit 3505, and the output terminal of the control circuit 3505 is connected to the control terminal of the boost module 2302;
[0074] The output terminal of the detection circuit 3504 outputs the voltage of each channel port 2037, and the output terminal of the control circuit 3505 outputs an adjustment signal, and the adjustment signal is used to adjust the voltage of the power output port 2033.
[0075] The detection circuit 3504 and the control circuit 3505 are used to detect the voltage output by the analog driving circuit 3503 to each channel port 2037, and adjust the VLED output by the power output port 2033 based on this voltage. Specifically, the detection circuit 3504 can monitor the voltage of the output pin of the backlight driving chip 203 (i.e., the channel port 2037) in real time, and adjust the output voltage of the power output port 2033 on the premise of ensuring the stable output current of the analog driving circuit, so as to ensure that the output voltage is at the minimum value that can work normally.
[0076] In the backlight unit provided by the above embodiments, through the detection circuit and the control circuit, combined with the driving voltage of each light-emitting unit, the VLED of the light-emitting unit is accurately controlled, and the power consumption can be effectively reduced while ensuring the normal light emission of the light-emitting unit.
[0077] In one embodiment, the backlight control board includes a substrate and a backlight controller located on the substrate;
[0078] The power supply terminal of the backlight controller is connected to the power output terminal of the power supply board, and the power output terminal of the backlight controller is connected to the power supply terminal of the backlight driving chip;
[0079] The substrate is also provided with a ground wire, and the ground wire terminal of the power supply board is connected to the ground terminal of the backlight driving chip through the ground wire laid on the substrate.
[0080] The power supply board is connected to the ground terminal of the backlight controller and the ground terminal of the backlight driving chip through the ground wire laid on the substrate, without other wiring and processing devices, saving the area of the backlight control board.
