Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a display driving method, a display driving device, and a display device. [Background technology]
[0002] Resolution and refresh rate are two important parameters for characterizing the performance of a display. On the one hand, the higher the resolution of the display, the more detailed the displayed screen will be; on the other hand, the higher the refresh rate of the display, the smoother the displayed screen will be. With the development of display technology, the resolution of the display is constantly improving, for example, there are currently displays with various resolutions such as HD (High Definition), FHD (Full High Definition), UHD (Ultra High Definition), 5K (referring to line resolution in display), 8K (referring to line resolution in display), etc. At the same time, the refresh rate of the display is also constantly improving, for example, there are currently displays with various refresh rates such as 60Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz, 165Hz, 240Hz, etc., which can provide users, especially game players, with a better visual experience. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] For example, a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may further include, when displaying multiple frames, periodically changing the data polarity of each frame, where the data polarity includes opposite first and second polarities.
[0005] For example, in a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame is two frames, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of one frame is the first polarity, and the data polarity of the other frame is the second polarity.
[0006] For example, in a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame is 4n frames, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of the n odd frame data and the n even frame data is the first polarity, and the data polarity of the other n odd frame data and the n even frame data is the second polarity.
[0007] For example, in the display driving methods according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, n is equal to 1 or equal to 2.
[0008] For example, a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure further includes, when displaying multiple frames, periodically changing the data mapping relationship of each frame, so that in a minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame, each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and simultaneously corresponds to the second polarity.
[0009] For example, in the display driving methods according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, in the minimum common period, the number of each of the data mapping relationships corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each of the data mapping relationships corresponding to the second polarity.
[0010] For example, in a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the data mapping relationship includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a first data mapping relationship, a second data mapping relationship, a third data mapping relationship, and a fourth data mapping relationship, the first data mapping relationship includes that odd rows of the display array correspond to actual data displaying odd row data of one frame, and even rows of the display array correspond to interpolated data displaying odd row data of the frame, and the second data mapping relationship includes that odd rows of the display array correspond to actual data displaying even row data of one frame. the third data mapping relationship includes the even rows of the display array corresponding to actual data displaying odd row data of a frame and the odd rows of the display array corresponding to interpolated data displaying odd row data of the frame; and the fourth data mapping relationship includes the even rows of the display array corresponding to actual data displaying even row data of a frame and the odd rows of the display array corresponding to interpolated data displaying even row data of the frame.
[0011] For example, in a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a second minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each of the frames is 4 frames, and the display driving method includes the steps of: when displaying an x1 frame in the second minimum change period, providing odd row data of the x1 frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the first data mapping relationship; when displaying an x2 frame in the second minimum change period, providing even row data of the x2 frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the second data mapping relationship; when displaying an x3 frame in the second minimum change period, providing odd row data of the x3 frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the third data mapping relationship; and when displaying an x4 frame in the second minimum change period, providing even row data of the x4 frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the fourth data mapping relationship, wherein the set {x1, x2, x3, x4} is the same as the set {1, 2, 3, 4}.
[0012] For example, in a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, before displaying, any row of the display array further has a pre-charging time of at least one row, and the pre-charging time of the at least one row is before the charging time of the two rows.
[0013] At least some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display driving device including a first driver and a second driver, wherein the first driver is configured to provide a first parity row data of an odd frame to a display array when displaying an odd frame, and to provide a second parity row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying an even frame, the second driver is configured to display a third parity row of the display array based on actual data of the first parity row data and a fourth parity row of the display array based on interpolated data of the first parity row data when displaying the odd frame, and to display a fourth parity row of the display array based on actual data of the second parity row data and a third parity row of the display array based on interpolated data of the second parity row data when displaying the even frame, and the first driver and the second driver are further configured to delay a charging time of two rows for any row of the display array before displaying it. and when any row of the display array is displayed based on real data, charging times of two rows of any one of the rows are both used to charge the any one of the rows based on corresponding real data of the any one of the rows, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on interpolated data, charging time of a later row of the two row charging times of any one of the rows is used to charge the any one of the rows based on corresponding real data of one adjacent row of the any one of the rows, and charging time of an earlier row of the two row charging times of any one of the rows is used to charge the any one of the rows based on corresponding real data of another adjacent row of the any one of the rows or is not used to charge the any one of the rows, wherein the first parity row data is one of odd row data and even row data, the second parity row data is the other of odd row data and even row data, the third parity row is one of odd rows and even rows, and the fourth parity row is the other of odd rows and even rows.
[0014] For example, in some embodiments of the display driving device of the present disclosure, the first driver is further configured to periodically change the data polarity of each frame when displaying multiple frames, and the data polarity includes opposite first and second polarities.
[0015] For example, in a display driving device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame is 4n frames, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of the n odd frame data and the n even frames is the first polarity, and the data polarity of the other n odd frame data and the n even frames is the second polarity.
[0016] For example, in some embodiments of the display driving device of the present disclosure, the second driver is further configured to periodically change the data mapping relationship of each frame when displaying multiple frames, so that in a minimum common period of the data polarity and data mapping relationship of each frame, each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and simultaneously corresponds to the second polarity.
[0017] For example, in a display driving device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, in the minimum common period, the number of each of the data mapping relationships corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each of the data mapping relationships corresponding to the second polarity.
[0018] For example, in a display driving device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the data mapping relationship includes at least one selected from a group consisting of a first data mapping relationship, a second data mapping relationship, a third data mapping relationship, and a fourth data mapping relationship, the first data mapping relationship includes that odd rows of the display array correspond to actual data displaying odd row data of one frame, and even rows of the display array correspond to interpolated data displaying odd row data of the frame, and the second data mapping relationship includes that odd rows of the display array correspond to actual data displaying even row data of one frame. the third data mapping relationship includes the even rows of the display array corresponding to actual data displaying odd row data of a frame and the odd rows of the display array corresponding to interpolated data displaying odd row data of the frame; and the fourth data mapping relationship includes the even rows of the display array corresponding to actual data displaying even row data of a frame and the odd rows of the display array corresponding to interpolated data displaying even row data of the frame.
[0019] For example, in a display driving device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the second minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame is 4 frames, and the first driver provides odd row data of the x1 frame to the display array when displaying an x1 frame in the second minimum change period, provides even row data of the x2 frame to the display array when displaying an x2 frame in the second minimum change period, provides odd row data of the x3 frame to the display array when displaying an x3 frame in the second minimum change period, and provides even row data of the x4 frame to the display array when displaying an x4 frame in the second minimum change period. the second driver is configured to display the display array based on the first data mapping relationship when displaying an x1-th frame in the second minimum change period, to display the display array based on the second data mapping relationship when displaying an x2-th frame in the second minimum change period, to display the display array based on the third data mapping relationship when displaying an x3-th frame in the second minimum change period, and to display the display array based on the fourth data mapping relationship when displaying an x4-th frame in the second minimum change period, wherein the set {x1, x2, x3, x4} is the same as the set {1, 2, 3, 4}.
[0020] For example, in some embodiments of the display driving device of the present disclosure, the second driver is further configured to cause any row of the display array to have at least one row pre-charge time before displaying, the at least one row pre-charge time being before the charge time of the two rows.
[0021] For example, in a display driving device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first driver includes a data driver, and the second driver includes a gate driver.
[0022] At least some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display device including a display driver according to any of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0023] For example, in some embodiments of the display device of the present disclosure, the display device is a liquid crystal display device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0026] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Of course, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments that a person skilled in the art can obtain without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

The terms "first", "second" and similar terms used in this disclosure do not indicate any order, number or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Similarly, similar terms such as "one", "one" or "the" do not indicate a number limitation, but indicate the presence of at least one. Similar terms such as "comprise" or "include" refer to the element or member described before the term including the element or member listed after the term and their equivalents, and do not exclude other elements or members. Similar terms such as "connected" or "coupled" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether directly or indirectly connected. Terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and the like are used only to indicate relative positional relationships, and if the absolute position of the described object is changed, the relative positional relationships may change accordingly.
[0028] FIG. 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a display device. As shown in FIG. 1, the display device includes a display panel 1, which includes a display area AA, in which a pixel array is provided, and which includes a plurality of sub-pixels 10 arranged in an array. For example, the display panel 1 may be a liquid crystal display panel, that is, the display device is a liquid crystal display device, but is not limited thereto, for example, the plurality of sub-pixels 10 usually include a plurality of color sub-pixels, which usually include a first color sub-pixel, a second color sub-pixel, and a third color sub-pixel, for example, the first color, the second color, and the third color may be three primary colors (e.g., red, green, and blue), but are not limited thereto. For convenience of explanation, the plurality of sub-pixels 10 in FIG. 1 are illustrated as being arranged in a matrix format. In this case, the sub-pixels 10 arranged in a row in the horizontal direction are referred to as a sub-pixel in one row, and the sub-pixels 10 arranged in a row in the vertical direction are referred to as a sub-pixel in one column.
[0029] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the display device further includes a gate driving circuit 20 (also referred to as a "scan driving circuit" or "gate driver") and a data driving circuit 30 (also referred to as a "source driving circuit" or "data driver"). The gate driving circuit 20 is used to provide a gate signal to the pixel array, and the data driving circuit 30 is used to provide a data signal to the pixel array, and the pixel array displays by controlling the gate signal and the data signal in cooperation with each other. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the gate driving circuit 20 is electrically connected to the pixel array through a gate line GL, and the data driving circuit 30 is electrically connected to the pixel array through a data line DL. For example, the gate driving circuit 20 can be realized by a bound integrated circuit driving chip, or the gate driving circuit 20 can be directly integrated into the display panel 1 to form a GOA (Gate driver On Array), for example, the data driving circuit 30 can be realized by a bound integrated circuit driving chip. Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described taking the gate driving circuit 20 as an example to be realized as a GOA, however, it should not be regarded as limiting the present disclosure.
[0030] Note that FIG. 1 is an example, and a gate driving circuit is provided on one side of the display panel 1, and each gate line is driven from one side in sequence, i.e., one-sided driving. For example, a gate driving circuit may be provided on both sides of the extension direction of the gate lines of the display panel 1, and each gate line may be simultaneously driven from both sides in sequence, i.e., two-sided driving. For example, a gate driving circuit may be provided on both sides of the extension direction of the gate lines of the display panel 1, and each gate line may be alternately driven from both sides in sequence, i.e., cross driving. Note that, although the present disclosure is described using one-sided driving as an example, it should not be considered as limiting the present disclosure.
[0031] FIG. 2 is a timing diagram of charging GOA. As shown in FIG. 2, in order to light the sub-pixels 10 in the display area AA of the liquid crystal display panel, the frame start signal STV triggers the GOA to output a gate signal row by row to turn on the gates in the sub-pixels 10, and the data transmission control signal TP (abbreviated as "TP signal") triggers the data driving circuit 30 to output a data signal, thereby completing writing of one row of data to the sub-pixels 10 and realizing lighting of one row of the sub-pixels 10. As shown in FIG. 2, the timing row data 1, 2, 3, 4, ... indicate the data of the first, second, third, fourth, ... rows held in the data driving circuit 30, and in response to the TP signal, the data held in the data driving circuit 30 can be output to the data line, and the physical row data indicates the data charged in the sub-pixels. In the charging timing shown in FIG. 2, the physical row data and the timing row data correspond one-to-one and are the same in number.
[0032] As shown in FIG. 2, each gate signal output by GOA lasts for several rows (the time interval between two adjacent gray vertical lines in FIG. 2 indicates the time of one row), the time of the previous several rows is all used for precharging the data of the previous row, and only the time of the last row is used for charging the data of the row. Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 2, the active level of the gate signal of each row of GOA lasts for six rows, the time of the previous five rows is all precharging time, and only the time of the last row is charging time. For example, in this disclosure, the time interval between the falling edges (or rising edges) of the gate signals of two adjacent rows is one row time, which will not be described again below.
[0033] In the liquid crystal display panel, in order to avoid the polarity of the liquid crystal molecules being destroyed and causing the afterimage phenomenon, the display voltage (corresponding to the data signal) at one end of the subpixel needs to be constantly changed to be higher or lower than the common voltage at the other end, but the voltage difference is kept relatively constant, so that the polarity of each subpixel changes constantly, but the required gray scale is displayed. The polarity relationship of adjacent subpixels determines the polarity conversion method, and the polarity conversion method usually includes four, namely, frame inversion, row inversion, column inversion and dot inversion: all adjacent subpixels in each screen of frame inversion have the same polarity, row inversion and column inversion mean that the common row or column has the same polarity, and the adjacent row or column has the opposite polarity, and dot inversion means that each subpixel has the opposite polarity to its adjacent subpixel. For combining the column inversion method of the data signal with the column pixel architecture, the data signal hardly needs to be considered for the rising delay, so that the pre-charging can realize the charging improvement, the difference between the data signals of the two adjacent rows is small, and the image quality is high.
[0034] With the emergence of high resolution and high refresh rate, the charging time of each row of the display panel is correspondingly shorter, which results in insufficient charging of the sub-pixels of each row, further resulting in poor image quality. For example, take the resolution as M*N and the refresh rate as K, where M represents the number of rows of sub-pixels and N represents the number of columns of sub-pixels. In that case, the time of one row T=1 / K / M. As can be seen from the calculation, for the charging timing shown in FIG. 2, with the increase of K and M, the available charging time of the pixels of each row (i.e., the time of one row) becomes shorter. For example, for a product with 8K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, the charging time of the sub-pixels of each row is only 1.85 microseconds. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, with the increase of the resolution of the display panel, the resistive loading (RC loading) of the signal lines in the display panel also becomes more and more serious, which further worsens the charging effect of the sub-pixels of each row far from the data driving circuit 30.
[0035] At least some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display driving method, the display driving method including the steps of: when displaying an odd frame, providing first parity row data of an odd frame to a display array, displaying a third parity row of the display array based on actual data of the first parity row data, and displaying a fourth parity row of the display array based on interpolated data of the first parity row data; when displaying an even frame, providing second parity row data of an even frame to a display array, displaying a fourth parity row of the display array based on actual data of the second parity row data, and displaying a third parity row of the display array based on interpolated data of the second parity row data, and any row of the display array has a charging time of two rows before displaying, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on the actual data, the charging time of the any row of the two rows is two rows. When any row of the display array is displayed based on the interpolated data, the charging time of the latter of the two row charging times of any row is used to charge the any row based on corresponding actual data of one adjacent row of the any row, and the charging time of the former of the two row charging times of any row is used to charge the any row based on corresponding actual data of another adjacent row of the any row or is not used to charge the any row, the first parity row data is one of the odd row data and the even row data, the second parity row data is the other of the odd row data and the even row data, the third parity row is one of the odd row and the even row, and the fourth parity row is the other of the odd row and the even row.
[0036] Some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display driving device, a display panel, and an electronic device corresponding to the above display driving method.
[0037] The display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure can realize frequency multiplication of the refresh rate of the display device by alternately displaying the display array based on the odd row data or the even row data of each frame, and can solve the problem of poor image quality caused by insufficient charging of a high-resolution and high-refresh rate display device, which is advantageous in improving the smoothness of image quality and improving the viewing effect.
[0038] Hereinafter, some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that, in order to clarify and simplify the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components (elements) may be omitted. When any component (element) of the embodiments of the present disclosure appears in one or more drawings, the component (element) is indicated by the same or similar reference numeral in each drawing.
[0039] 3 is a flowchart of a display driving method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG 3, the display driving method includes the following steps S100 to S200.
[0040] Step S100: When displaying an odd frame, provide first parity row data of the odd frame to a display array, display a third parity row of the display array according to actual data of the first parity row data, and display a fourth parity row of the display array according to interpolated data of the first parity row data.
[0041] Step S200: When displaying an even frame, provide second parity row data of the even frame to a display array, display a fourth parity row of the display array according to actual data of the second parity row data, and display a third parity row of the display array according to interpolated data of the second parity row data.
[0042] For example, the display array may refer to the pixel array in the display device shown in FIG. 1, which will not be described again here.
[0043] For example, before display, any row of the display array has a charging time of two rows, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on actual data, both of the charging times of the two rows of the row are used to charge the any row based on the corresponding actual data of the any row, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on interpolated data, the charging time of the latter row of the two charging times of the any row is used to charge the any row based on the corresponding actual data of one adjacent row of the any row, and the charging time of the former row of the two charging times of the any row is used to charge the any row based on the corresponding actual data of another adjacent row of the any row or is not used to charge the any row.
[0044] For example, the first parity row data is one of the odd row data and the even row data, and the second parity row data is the other of the odd row data and the even row data.
[0045] For example, the third parity row is one of the odd and even rows, and the fourth parity row is the other of the odd and even rows.
[0046] For example, in some embodiments, during the display process, odd row data of an odd frame may be provided to the display array when an odd frame is displayed, and even row data of an even frame may be provided to the display array when an even frame is displayed. For example, in some other embodiments, during the display process, even row data of an odd frame may be provided to the display array when an odd frame is displayed, and odd row data of an even frame may be provided to the display array when an even frame is displayed.
[0047] For example, in the process of displaying, there is at least one of the following four data mapping relationships (i.e., the first data mapping relationship, the second data mapping relationship, the third data mapping relationship, and the fourth data mapping relationship) between each row (physical row) of the display array and each row data (timing row) of one frame. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when any row of the display array is displayed after being charged for two row times according to a specific row data, it is considered that the any row of the display array corresponds to the specific row data, and the any row of the display array displays real data; otherwise, the any row of the display array displays interpolated data.
[0048] For example, the first data mapping relationship includes that odd rows of the display array correspond to actual data that displays odd row data of one frame, and even rows of the display array correspond to interpolated data that displays odd row data of the frame. For example, as shown in Fig. 4A, by controlling blanking of TP signals corresponding to even row data (blanked TP signals are shown by dashed lines in Fig. 4A), the data driver can output only odd row data of one frame data to the data lines, and at the same time, by controlling the gate driver, the falling edge of the frame start signal STV can be advanced by two rows in time from the falling edge of the gate signal G1 of the first row, and the falling edges of each row gate signal (see G1 to G6 in Fig. 4A) can be delayed in the time order of one row. Thereby, in this case, the odd rows of the display array can be displayed after being charged for two row times based on the corresponding odd row data, i.e., the odd rows of the display array display the actual data of the odd row data, and the even rows of the display array are first charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the previous row out of the two row charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the later row out of the two row charging times) out of the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then displayed, i.e., the even rows of the display array display the interpolated data of the odd row data.
[0049] For example, the second data mapping relationship includes that the odd rows of the display array correspond to the actual data that displays the even row data of one frame, and the even rows of the display array correspond to the interpolated data that displays the even row data of the frame. For example, as shown in Fig. 4B, by controlling the blanking of the TP signal corresponding to the odd row data (the blanked TP signal is shown by a dashed line in Fig. 4B), the data driver can output only the even row data of one frame data to the data line, and at the same time, by controlling the gate driver, the falling edge of the frame start signal STV can be advanced by three rows in time from the falling edge of the first row gate signal G1, and the falling edges of the gate signals of each row (see G1 to G6 in Fig. 4B) can be delayed in the order of one row in time. Thereby, in this case, the odd rows of the display array can be displayed after being charged for two row times based on the corresponding even row data, i.e., the odd rows of the display array display the actual data of the even row data, and the even rows of the display array are first charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the previous row out of the two row charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the subsequent row out of the two row charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then displayed, i.e., the even rows of the display array display the interpolated data of the even row data.
[0050] For example, the third data mapping relationship includes that the even rows of the display array correspond to the actual data that displays the odd row data of one frame, and the odd rows of the display array correspond to the interpolated data that displays the odd row data of the frame. For example, as shown in Fig. 4C, by controlling the blanking of the TP signal corresponding to the even row data (the blanked TP signal is shown by a dashed line in Fig. 4C), the data driver can output only the odd row data of one frame data to the data line, and at the same time, by controlling the gate driver, the falling edge of the frame start signal STV can be advanced by one row time from the falling edge of the first row gate signal G1, and the falling edges of the gate signals of each row (see G1 to G6 in Fig. 4C) can be delayed in the order of one row time. Thereby, in this case, the even rows of the display array can be displayed after being charged for two row times based on the corresponding even row data, i.e., the even rows of the display array display the actual data of the even row data, the first row of the display array is displayed after being charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times) based only on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and the other odd rows of the display array are first charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the former row out of the charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then displayed, i.e., the odd rows of the display array display the interpolated data of the even row data.
[0051] For example, the fourth data mapping relationship includes that the even rows of the display array correspond to the actual data that displays the even row data of one frame, and the odd rows of the display array correspond to the interpolated data that displays the even row data of the frame. For example, as shown in Fig. 4D, by controlling the blanking of the TP signal corresponding to the odd row data (the blanked TP signal is shown by a dashed line in Fig. 4C), the data driver can output only the even row data of one frame data to the data line, and at the same time, by controlling the gate driver, the falling edge of the frame start signal STV can be advanced by two rows in time from the falling edge of the gate signal G1 of the first row, and the falling edges of the gate signals of each row (see G1 to G6 in Fig. 4C) can be delayed in the order of one row in time. Thereby, in this case, the even rows of the display array can be displayed after being charged for two row times based on the corresponding odd row data, i.e., the even rows of the display array display the actual data of the odd row data, the first row of the display array is displayed after being charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times) based only on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and the other odd rows of the display array are first charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the former row out of the charging times) based on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row, and then charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times), and then displayed, i.e., the odd rows of the display array display the interpolated data of the odd row data.
[0052] As can be understood, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is also considered that the first row of the display array displays interpolated data of the even row (i.e., the second row) data, whereas in the case where the first row of the display array is displayed after being charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times of two rows) based only on the corresponding actual data of the subsequent row.
[0053] For example, for an 8K, 120Hz display device, the above display driving method can ensure that odd or even rows are fully charged during the display process, and at the same time, due to the visual inertia of the human eye, the display effect is almost the same as that of an 8K, 60Hz display device. Therefore, the above display driving method can realize an improvement in the refresh rate, and provide a better gaming experience for game players (who require a high refresh rate).
[0054] In order to avoid the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon due to the polarization of liquid crystal molecules in a liquid crystal display device, the display voltage (corresponding to the data signal) at one end of the sub-pixel needs to be constantly changed to be higher or lower than the common voltage at the other end, but the voltage difference is kept relatively constant, so that the polarity of each sub-pixel is constantly changed but the required gray scale is displayed. For example, in some embodiments, the display driving method may further include periodically changing the data polarity of each frame when displaying multiple frames. For example, the data polarity includes opposite first and second polarities. For example, the first polarity may be positive, corresponding to the case where the voltage of the data signal is higher than the common voltage, and the second polarity may be negative, corresponding to the case where the voltage of the data signal is lower than the common voltage. Of course, the first polarity may be negative, and the second polarity may be positive.
[0055] For example, in some embodiments, a data driver in a display device can provide data signals of different polarities based on the positive or negative (or high or low) of a polarity signal POL (abbreviated as "POL signal").
[0056] For example, in some embodiments, the display driving method may further include periodically changing the data mapping relationship of each frame when displaying multiple frames. For example, the minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the second minimum change period) may be 2 frames or 4 frames, and the embodiments of the present disclosure include but are not limited to this. For example, in some embodiments, in the minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame, the data mapping relationship of each frame may be periodically changed such that each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and the second polarity at the same time, thereby better avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules. For example, in some embodiments, in the minimum common period, the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the second polarity, thereby better avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules.
[0057] For example, in some embodiments, the minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame (i.e., the first minimum change period) is two frames, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of one frame is a first polarity, and the data polarity of the other frame is a second polarity. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the first minimum change period is two frames, in each first minimum change period, the data polarity (i.e., POL polarity) of the odd frames (see the first and third frames in FIG. 5) may be positive, and the data polarity of the even frames (see the second and fourth frames in FIG. 5) may be negative, thereby avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules to a certain extent. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the rows with a white background indicate that real data is displayed, and the rows with a gray background indicate that interpolated data is displayed.
[0058] For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 5, the minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the second minimum change period) may be 2 frames, in which case the minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame is 2 frames. For example, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display odd frames based on the first data mapping relationship and display even frames based on the second data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide odd row data of the odd frame to the display array when displaying the odd frame and provide even row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying the even frame; or, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display odd frames based on the second data mapping relationship and display even frames based on the first data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide even row data of the odd frame to the display array when displaying the odd frame and provide odd row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying the even frame. It can be understood that the present disclosure includes but is not limited to this, that is, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, other two of the above four data mapping relationships can be selected and used in combination as needed.
[0059] For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 5, the minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the second minimum change period) may be 4 frames, in which case the minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame is 4 frames. For example, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display a first frame based on the first data mapping relationship, display a second frame based on the second data mapping relationship, display a third frame based on the second data mapping relationship, and display a fourth frame based on the first data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide odd row data of an odd frame to the display array when displaying the first frame, provide even row data of an even frame to the display array when displaying the second frame, provide even row data of an odd frame to the display array when displaying the third frame, and provide odd row data of an even frame to the display array when displaying the fourth frame. In this case, in the minimum common period, the first data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, similarly, the second data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, and at the same time, in the minimum common period, the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (both are 1), and the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (both are 1). Thereby, the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules can be further avoided. As can be understood, the present disclosure includes but is not limited thereto, that is, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the order of various data mapping relationships selected according to need can be set.
[0060] For example, in some other embodiments, the first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame is 4n frames, n is a positive integer equal to or greater than 1, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of the n odd frame data and the n even frame data is a first polarity, and the data polarity of the other n odd frame data and the n even frame data is a second polarity, for example, n is equal to 1 or equal to 2, and the embodiments of the present disclosure include but are not limited to this.
[0061] For example, as shown in Fig. 6, when the first minimum change period is 4 frames (i.e., n=1), in each first minimum change period, the corresponding data polarity (i.e., POL polarity) of the second frame of the first frame may be positive polarity, and the corresponding data polarity of the third and fourth frames may be negative polarity, or in each first minimum change period, the corresponding data polarity (i.e., POL polarity) of the first and fourth frames may be positive polarity, and the corresponding data polarity of the second and third frames may be negative polarity, thereby avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of liquid crystal molecules to a certain extent. For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 6, the rows with a white background indicate that real data is displayed, and the rows with a gray background indicate that interpolated data is displayed.
[0062] For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 6, the minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the second minimum change period) may be 2 frames, in which case the minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame is 4 frames. For example, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display an odd frame (see the first frame and the third frame in Fig. 6) based on the first data mapping relationship, and display an even frame (see the second frame and the fourth frame in Fig. 6) based on the second data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide the odd row data of the odd frame to the display array when displaying the odd frame, and provide the even row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying the even frame; or, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display an odd frame based on the second data mapping relationship, and display the even frame based on the first data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide the even row data of the odd frame to the display array when displaying the odd frame, and provide the odd row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying the even frame. In this case, in the minimum common period, the first data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, similarly, the second data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, and at the same time, in the minimum common period, the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (both are 1), and the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (both are 1). Thereby, the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules can be better avoided. As can be understood, the present disclosure includes but is not limited thereto, that is, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, another two of the above four data mapping relationships can be selected and used in combination as necessary, and at the same time, the order of the various selected data mapping relationships can be further set as necessary.
[0063] For example, when the first minimum change period is 8 frames (i.e., n=2), as shown in FIG. 7, in each first minimum change period, the corresponding data polarities (i.e., POL polarities) of the first, third, sixth, and eighth frames may be positive, and the corresponding data polarities of the second, fourth, fifth, and seventh frames may be negative. This can prevent the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules to a certain extent. It should be noted that the data polarity change order shown in FIG. 7 is exemplary, and the data polarity change order can be set as necessary in each first minimum change period. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, a row with a white background indicates that real data is displayed, a row with a gray background indicates that interpolated data is displayed, and a dash on the upper right of the data of the first row of the display array indicates that the first row of the display array is displayed after being charged for one row time (i.e., the charging time of the latter row out of the charging times of two rows) based only on the corresponding real data of the subsequent row.
[0064] For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 7, the minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the second minimum change period) may be 4 frames, in which case, the minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame is 8 frames. For example, in each second minimum change period, the display array can display the first and fifth frames according to the first data mapping relationship, display the second and sixth frames according to the second data mapping relationship, display the third and seventh frames according to the third data mapping relationship, and display the fourth and eighth frames according to the fourth data mapping relationship, and correspondingly, in this case, provide the odd row data of the odd frame to the display array when displaying the odd frame, and provide the even row data of the even frame to the display array when displaying the even frame. In this case, in the minimum common period, the first data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, the second data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, the third data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, the fourth data mapping relationship corresponds to positive polarity and negative polarity at the same time, and at the same time, in the minimum common period, the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the first data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (all are 1), the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the second data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (all are 1), the number of the third data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the third data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (all are 1), and the number of the fourth data mapping relationship corresponding to positive polarity is equal to the number of the fourth data mapping relationship corresponding to negative polarity (all are 1). This can further avoid the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules and improve the display uniformity. As can be understood, the present disclosure includes but is not limited to this, that is, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the order of various data mapping relationships selected as necessary can be set.
[0065] As can be understood, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the y1th row (y1 is a positive integer) of the display array always displays real data, and the y2th row (y2 is a positive integer and y2 is different from y1) of the display array always displays interpolated data, the distribution of the interpolated data is different from the distribution of the real data (the probability that the interpolated data takes an intermediate value is greater than the probability that the real data takes an intermediate value, and the probability that the interpolated data takes a maximum value and a minimum value is greater than the probability that the real data takes a maximum value and a minimum value), which may cause the phenomenon of display unevenness. For example, in some embodiments, in order to avoid the occurrence of the above-mentioned phenomenon of display unevenness, the second minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame can be set to 4 frames, and in this case, the display driving method includes the steps of: when displaying the x1th frame in the second minimum change period, providing odd row data of the x1th frame to the display array and displaying the display array based on the first data mapping relationship; when displaying the x2th frame in the second minimum change period, providing even row data of the x2th frame to the display array and displaying the display array based on the second data mapping relationship; and when displaying a x3-th frame in the second minimum change period, providing odd-numbered row data of the x3-th frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the third data mapping relationship; and when displaying a x4-th frame in the second minimum change period, providing even-numbered row data of the x4-th frame to the display array, and displaying the display array based on the fourth data mapping relationship, where the set {x1, x2, x3, x4} is the same as the set {1, 2, 3, 4}, i.e., the values of x1, x2, x3, and x4 are each an element in the set {1, 2, 3, 4}, and the values of x1, x2, x3, and x4 are different from each other.For example, in some embodiments (see the embodiments shown in FIG. 7 ), based on this, in the minimum common period between the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the minimum common period between the first minimum change period and the second minimum change period), each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and also to the second polarity, and the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the second polarity, the first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame can be further controlled in a coordinated manner, thereby maximally avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules.
[0066] For example, in some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4A-4D, before displaying, any row of the display array further has at least one pre-charge time, and the pre-charge time of the at least one row is before the charge time of the two rows. For example, by combining the column pixel architecture with the column inversion method of the data signal, the data signal does not need to consider the rising delay, so the pre-charge can realize the charging improvement, the difference between the data signals of two adjacent rows is small, and the image quality is high.
[0067] As can be seen, in the display driving method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, by adjusting three selections or settings, namely, 1) selecting whether to provide odd row data or even row data to the display array when displaying each frame, 2) setting the data polarity change sequence for each frame, and 3) selecting one or more of the above four data mapping relationships, and setting the change sequence of the various data mapping relationships when multiple data mapping relationships are selected, the refresh rate can be improved and the afterimage phenomenon can be avoided.
[0068] Some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display driver. Figure 8 is a schematic block diagram of a display driver according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, as shown in Figure 8, the display driver 800 includes a first driver 810 and a second driver 820.
[0069] For example, the first driver 810 is configured to provide first parity row data of an odd frame to the display array when displaying an odd frame, and to provide second parity row data of an even frame to the display array when displaying an even frame; the second driver 820 is configured to display a third parity row of the display array based on the actual data of the first parity row data and a fourth parity row of the display array based on the interpolated data of the first parity row data when displaying an odd frame; and to display the fourth parity row of the display array based on the actual data of the second parity row data and the third parity row of the display array based on the interpolated data of the second parity row data when displaying an even frame; and the first driver 810 and the second driver 820 Further, the display array is configured to have two charging times for any row before displaying, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on real data, the charging times of the two rows of the any row are both used to charge the any row based on the corresponding real data of the any row, and when any row of the display array is displayed based on interpolated data, the charging time of the latter row among the two charging times of the any row is used to charge the any row based on the corresponding real data of one adjacent row of the any row, and the charging time of the former row among the two charging times of the any row is used to charge the any row based on the corresponding real data of another adjacent row of the any row or is not used to charge the any row. For example, the first parity row data is one of odd row data and even row data, and the second parity row data is the other of odd row data and even row data. Thereby, the display driving device 800 may further be used to realize the above display driving method.
[0070] For example, in some embodiments, the first driver 810 is further configured to periodically change the data polarity of each frame when displaying multiple frames, for example, the data polarity includes opposite first and second polarities, so that the display driver 820 can avoid the occurrence of image retention caused by the polarization of liquid crystal molecules.
[0071] For example, in some embodiments (see the embodiments shown in FIG. 5), the minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame (i.e., the first minimum change period) is 2 frames, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of one frame is the first polarity, and the data polarity of the other frame is the second polarity. For example, in some other embodiments (see the embodiments shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7), the first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame is 4n frames, where n is a positive integer equal to or greater than 1, and in the first minimum change period, the data polarity of the n odd frame data and the n even frame data is the first polarity, and the data polarity of the other n odd frame data and the n even frame data is the second polarity. For example, n is equal to 1 or equal to 2, and the embodiments of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, this.
[0072] For example, in some embodiments, the second driver is further configured to periodically change the data mapping relationship of each frame when displaying multiple frames, such that in a minimum common period of the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame, each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and the second polarity at the same time. For example, in some embodiments, in a minimum common period, the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the second polarity. Thus, the display driver 820 can further avoid the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules.
[0073] For example, in some embodiments, the data mapping relationship includes a first data mapping relationship, a second data mapping relationship, a third data mapping relationship and a fourth data mapping relationship, for example, the specific details of the four data mapping relationships can be referred to the above related description, and will not be described again here.
[0074] For example, in some embodiments, the second minimum change period of the data mapping relationship of each frame is 4 frames, in this case, the first driver 810 provides odd row data of the x1 frame to the display array when displaying the x1 frame in the second minimum change period, provides even row data of the x2 frame to the display array when displaying the x2 frame in the second minimum change period, provides odd row data of the x3 frame to the display array when displaying the x3 frame in the second minimum change period, and provides odd row data of the x4 frame to the display array when displaying the x4 frame in the second minimum change period. The second driver 820 is configured to display the display array based on the first data mapping relationship when displaying the x1 frame in the second minimum change period, display the display array based on the second data mapping relationship when displaying the x2 frame in the second minimum change period, display the display array based on the third data mapping relationship when displaying the x3 frame in the second minimum change period, and display the display array based on the fourth data mapping relationship when displaying the x4 frame in the second minimum change period. For example, the set {x1, x2, x3, x4} is the same as the set {1, 2, 3, 4}, i.e., the values of x1, x2, x3, x4 are each an element in the set {1, 2, 3, 4}, and the values of x1, x2, x3, x4 are different from each other. For example, in some embodiments (see the embodiments shown in FIG. 7 ), based on this, in the minimum common period between the data polarity and the data mapping relationship of each frame (i.e., the minimum common period between the first minimum change period and the second minimum change period), each data mapping relationship corresponds to the first polarity and also to the second polarity, and the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the first polarity is equal to the number of each data mapping relationship corresponding to the second polarity, the first minimum change period of the data polarity of each frame can be further controlled in a coordinated manner, thereby maximally avoiding the occurrence of the afterimage phenomenon caused by the polarization of the liquid crystal molecules.
[0075] For example, in some embodiments, the second driver 820 is further configured to make any row of the display array have at least one pre-charge time before displaying, and the pre-charge time of the at least one row is before the charge time of the two rows. For example, for combining the column pixel architecture with the column inversion method of the data signal, the data signal does not need to consider the rising delay, so the pre-charge can realize the charging improvement, the difference of the data signals of two adjacent rows is small, and the image quality is high.
[0076] For example, the first driver 810 can be realized as the data driving circuit 30 (data driver). For example, the first driver 810 can provide a data signal as required, for example, when displaying each frame, the first driver 810 can provide odd row data or even row data of the frame to the display array based on the blanking status of the TP signal. For example, the first driver 810 can further adjust the data polarity of the data signal as required, for example, when displaying each frame, the first driver 810 can adjust the data polarity of the data signal based on the polarity of the POL signal. Thus, the first driver 810 can periodically change the data polarity of each frame.
[0077] For example, the second driver 820 can be realized as the gate driving circuit 20 (gate driver). For example, the second driver 820 can provide gate signals as required, for example, control the delay time of the first row gate signal relative to the frame start signal STV and the delay time between the gate signals of each row when displaying each frame. Thus, the second driver 820 can periodically change the data mapping relationship of each frame.
[0078] For example, the first driver 810 and the second driver 820 can cooperate to control the charging time of each row of the display array, for example, each row of the display array can have two charging times (i.e., the charging time is two row times). For example, on this basis, the second driver 820 can further adjust the pre-charging time of each row of the display array by controlling the duration of each gate signal. Specific details can be referred to the above related description, and will not be repeated here.
[0079] As can be understood, in the display driving device 800 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first driver 810 and the second driver 820 perform the following operations: 1) when displaying each frame, the first driver 810 selectively provides odd row data or even row data to the display array; 2) the first driver 810 sets the data polarity change order for each frame; and 3) the second driver 820 selects one or more of the above four data mapping relationships, and sets the change order of the various data mapping relationships when multiple data mapping relationships are selected, thereby achieving an improvement in refresh rate and avoidance of the afterimage phenomenon.

[0081] Some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a display device. Figure 9 is a schematic block diagram of a display driver according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, as shown in Figure 9, the display device 900 includes the above-mentioned display driver 800 and a display panel 901. For example, the display panel 901 includes a display array.
[0082] For example, the display device 900 can be realized as the display device shown in Fig. 1. For example, the display driver 800 can be realized as the data driver 30 and the gate driver 20 shown in Fig. 1, the display panel 901 can be realized as the display panel 1 shown in Fig. 1, and the display array on the display panel 901 can be realized as the pixel array on the display panel 1. For specific details, please refer to the relevant descriptions above, and will not be repeated here.
[0083] For example, in some embodiments, the display device 900 may be a liquid crystal display device, i.e., the display panel 901 is a liquid crystal display panel, although the present disclosure includes but is not limited thereto.
[0084] In addition, the display device in this embodiment may be any product or component having a display function, such as a display, an electronic paper display, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a digital photo frame, a navigator, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.
