It needs to be noted that the "first", "second" and other words in the application are only convenient for the description of technical scheme to distinguish different components, and do not limit the application. In order to make the technical scheme of the utility model more clear, the utility model is explained and described by the following embodiments.

[0020] Embodiment one:

[0021] As Figure 1 The embodiment provides a silicon-based OLED display control system, and the system comprises a main control chip, a screen drive device, an OLED display screen and a voltage sampling circuit, wherein: the main control chip is connected with the screen drive device; the screen drive device is connected with the OLED display screen; and the screen drive device is also connected with the main control chip through the voltage sampling circuit.

[0022] The main control chip is used for providing constant analog positive voltage and analog negative voltage to the screen drive device, and simultaneously sending screen brightness demand converted into control parameters to the screen drive device.

[0023] The screen drive device is used for converting the constant analog positive voltage and analog negative voltage into corresponding OLED display screen drive voltage according to the control parameters.

[0024] The OLED display screen is used for adjusting OLED display brightness according to the drive voltage.

[0025] The voltage sampling circuit is used for sampling the drive voltage, and the sampling voltage is fed back to the main control chip; and the main control chip adjusts the constant analog positive voltage and analog negative voltage value according to the sampling voltage.

[0026] Specifically, the screen driving device of the embodiment comprises a first low-dropout linear regulator and a second low-dropout linear regulator, the voltage input end and the reference voltage input end of the first and second low-dropout linear regulators are connected with the master control chip, and the input end of the first and second low-dropout linear regulators is connected with the OLED display screen.

[0027] The voltage input end of the first low-dropout linear regulator inputs a constant analog positive voltage, and the first low-dropout linear regulator is used to convert the constant analog positive voltage into a gamma voltage and an OLED anode voltage according to the control parameter; the voltage input end of the second low-dropout linear regulator inputs a constant analog negative voltage, and the second low-dropout linear regulator is used to convert the constant analog negative voltage into an OLED cathode voltage according to the control parameter; the gamma voltage, the OLED anode voltage, and the OLED cathode voltage jointly constitute a driving voltage output to the OLED display screen.

[0028] The principle of the low-dropout linear regulator is that there is an error amplifier inside it, which samples the output voltage and compares it with the input reference voltage. When the reference voltage is constant, the output voltage will change accordingly when the input voltage changes or the output load current changes. This change is fed back to the error amplifier, which adjusts the impedance (transistor conduction degree) of an adjusting tube (usually a power transistor) connected in series between the input and output, thereby adjusting the output voltage, so that the output voltage remains stable. On this basis, by inputting different reference voltages through the master control chip, the output voltage of the low-dropout linear regulator can be adjusted. According to this point, the screen brightness requirement can be converted into the corresponding reference voltage, so as to adjust the reference voltage and adjust the screen brightness. For example, when the screen needs to display a high-brightness picture, the master control chip can output a higher reference voltage value to the low-dropout linear regulator, instructing the low-dropout linear regulator to increase the driving voltage.

[0029] Correspondingly, the system of the embodiment comprises a memory connected with the master control chip, and the memory has pre-stored screen brightness and control parameter conversion relationship data. In the embodiment, the control parameter is the reference voltage of the low-dropout linear regulator, and the screen brightness and reference voltage conversion relationship data can be obtained through a large number of experiments in advance. Therefore, the master control chip can select the corresponding control parameter according to the screen brightness requirement from the relationship data and output it to the screen driving device, and the screen driving device generates a gamma voltage, an OLED anode voltage, and an OLED cathode voltage to drive the OLED display screen.

[0030] In the embodiment, the gamma voltage, the OLED anode voltage, and the OLED cathode voltage are also fed back to the master control chip through the voltage sampling circuit. When the screen is in low brightness, the original analog positive and negative voltage values are usually large, and therefore the master control chip reduces the constant analog positive and negative voltage values according to the sampling voltage to reduce power consumption. The driving voltage (including the gamma voltage, the OLED anode voltage, and the OLED cathode voltage) when the screen is in low brightness is usually small, and the master control chip can determine whether the current is in low brightness by setting a voltage threshold (for example, each driving voltage less than or equal to 6V is considered as low brightness).

[0031] Generally, the analog positive voltage needs to be greater than the maximum value of the gamma voltage and the OLED anode voltage by more than 1V, and the analog negative voltage value needs to be greater than the OLED cathode voltage by more than 1V, and the specific setting value depends on the product characteristics. For example, in the embodiment, when the gamma voltage is read as 4.5V-6V, the anode voltage is read as 5.5V-6V, and the cathode voltage is read as 4V-5V, the master control chip inputs an analog positive voltage of 7V and an analog negative voltage of 6V; when the gamma voltage is read as 0V-1.5V, the anode voltage is read as 4V-4.5V, and the cathode voltage is read as 0V-1V, the master control chip inputs an analog positive voltage of 5.5V and an analog negative voltage of 2V.

[0032] After adjusting the analog positive voltage and the analog negative voltage, the driving voltage input to the OLED display screen remains stable due to the presence of the low-dropout linear regulator, that is, the brightness of the OLED display screen does not change, and the power consumption is reduced by adjusting the analog positive voltage and the analog negative voltage while the brightness of the OLED display screen remains unchanged.

[0033] In the embodiment, the master control chip is a microcontroller MCU, which has the advantages of small size, high control efficiency, strong data processing capability, and high integration, can improve the working efficiency of the overall system, and simplify the system architecture and reduce the cost.

[0034] Embodiment Two

[0035] Based on the embodiment one, the difference between embodiment two and embodiment one is that the screen driving device of the embodiment includes a DCDC converter, which is connected with the master control chip and the OLED display screen respectively; the DCDC converter is used to convert the constant analog positive and negative voltage into driving voltage according to the control parameter output by the master control chip and output to the OLED display screen.

[0036] Compared to DC-DC converters, the input analog positive and negative voltages can be converted into driving voltages suitable for OLED displays by adjusting parameters such as their duty cycle. Correspondingly, the system in this embodiment includes a memory connected to the main control chip. The memory pre-stores data relating screen brightness to the DC-DC converter's duty cycle. This data can be obtained in advance through numerous experiments under different analog positive and negative voltage conditions. The main control chip selects the corresponding duty cycle from the data based on the screen brightness requirement and outputs it to the screen driving device. The screen driving device then outputs the corresponding driving voltage to ensure the OLED display meets the required screen brightness. The driving voltage is also fed back to the main control chip via a voltage sampling circuit. The main control chip then adjusts the constant analog positive and negative voltage values ​​based on the sampled voltage to reduce power consumption, using the same method as in Embodiment 1.

[0037] After adjusting the analog positive and negative voltages, the main control chip can select the corresponding duty cycle from the relational data based on the current analog positive and negative voltages and the screen brightness requirements, and output it to the screen driving device to ensure that the brightness remains unchanged.

[0038] In addition, this application also proposes a display based on the aforementioned silicon-based OLED display control system, the display including the silicon-based OLED display control system.

[0039] In summary, this invention adjusts the OLED display to achieve the required brightness while simultaneously collecting the driving voltage output by the screen driving device through a voltage sampling circuit. Thus, when the screen brightness is low, the main control chip can reduce the simulated positive voltage and simulated negative voltage in real time according to the driving voltage, ultimately achieving the purpose of reducing power consumption. At the same time, it can also reduce the heat generation and temperature of the product.

[0040] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention; or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
