AI Technical Summary
In AMOLED modules, when adjacent display areas have different refresh rates, obvious dividing lines can easily appear. Existing technologies cannot completely solve the dividing line phenomenon caused by brightness differences through voltage compensation settings.
By controlling the pixel circuit at the boundary between adjacent display areas, adjusting the working and stopping positions of the pixel circuit, and dynamically adjusting the boundary between the high refresh rate area and the low refresh rate area, the difference in the number of rows or columns of the pixel circuit is controlled by using a multi-level scanning signal generation circuit and an enable signal line to achieve a smooth transition between different display frequency areas.
It effectively reduces the brightness difference between adjacent display areas, eliminates obvious dividing lines, and improves the uniformity and quality of the display effect.

[0001] Cross-references to related applications
[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411178472.6, filed in China on August 26, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0003] This disclosure relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a display adjustment method, a display adjustment module, and a display device. Background Technology
[0004] In related AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) module applications, to achieve the ultimate and superior intelligent display, the overall fixed-frequency display of the module is no longer sufficient. Consequently, multi-zone displays with different frequencies have emerged. In related technologies, when the same display module uses different refresh rates in different display areas, each display frequency corresponds to the same set of Gamma data. For example, using 120Hz Gamma data as a baseline, other display refresh rates (60Hz / 30Hz) will share this set of Gamma data. Currently, the various frequencies of split-screen displays are also implemented based on 120Hz using frame skipping. That is, at 120Hz, refreshing one frame and holding it for one frame is 60Hz; refreshing one frame and holding it for three frames is 30Hz; and so on. During refresh frames, the brightness of each display refresh rate is basically the same, and all are emitting light normally. However, during hold frames, the brightness changes as the number of hold frames increases; generally, the more hold frames, the lower the brightness. Therefore, the greater the difference in display refresh rates between two adjacent display areas, the greater the difference in brightness. In related technologies, voltage compensation settings are applied to the data voltage of the low refresh rate area to adjust the brightness of two adjacent display areas to be more consistent. This solves the overall area brightness problem, but there will still be obvious dividing lines between adjacent display areas, which is a display issue (module display malfunction (no display, abnormal screen distortion, etc.)).

Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0079] The display adjustment method described in this embodiment is applied to a display panel, the display panel including multiple display areas, and pixel circuits are disposed in the display areas; the display adjustment method includes:
[0080] When the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is in the holding phase and the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area is in the refresh phase, and the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is scanned to the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area, during at least two display periods within the adjacent M-frame display time, the positions of the pixel circuit controlling the start of operation are different at the boundary between the first and second predetermined display areas; and / or,
[0081] When the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is in the refresh phase and the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area is in the hold phase, and the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is scanned to the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area, the pixel circuit controlling the start and stop of operation is in different positions at the boundary between the first and second predetermined display areas during at least two display periods included in the adjacent M frame display time.
[0082] M is a positive integer, greater than 1 and less than or equal to 5; the first predetermined display area and the second predetermined display area are adjacent.
[0083] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the display refresh rates of two adjacent display areas in the display panel are different.
[0084] In related AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) module applications, to achieve the ultimate and superior intelligent display, the overall fixed-frequency display of the module is no longer sufficient. Consequently, multi-zone displays with different frequencies have emerged. In related technologies, when the same display module uses different refresh rates in different display areas, each display frequency corresponds to the same set of Gamma data. For example, using 120Hz Gamma data as a baseline, other display refresh rates (60Hz / 30Hz) will share this set of Gamma data. Currently, the various frequencies of split-screen displays are also implemented based on 120Hz using frame skipping. That is, at 120Hz, refreshing one frame and holding it for one frame is 60Hz; refreshing one frame and holding it for three frames is 30Hz; and so on. During refresh frames, the brightness of each display refresh rate is basically consistent, with all displaying normal illumination. However, during hold frames, the brightness changes as the number of hold frames increases; generally, the more hold frames, the lower the brightness. Therefore, the greater the difference in refresh rates between two adjacent display areas, the greater the brightness difference. Related technologies use voltage compensation settings on the data voltage of the low refresh rate area to adjust the brightness of two adjacent display areas to be more consistent. This solves the overall area brightness problem, but a noticeable dividing line still exists between adjacent display areas, which is considered a display issue.
[0085] Based on the above problems, in the display adjustment method described in the embodiments of this disclosure, when the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is in the holding phase and the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area is in the refresh phase, the positions of the pixel circuits that start working are different at the boundary between the first and second predetermined display areas during at least two display times included in the adjacent M frame display times; when the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is in the refresh phase and the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area is in the holding phase, the positions of the pixel circuits that start and stop working are different at the boundary between the first and second predetermined display areas during at least two display times included in the adjacent M frame display times; so as to dynamically adjust the boundary positions of the high refresh area and the low refresh area, thereby achieving the effect of blurring the boundary, which can be well applied to AMOLED local frequency conversion modules to improve the poor display effect.

[0092] When the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area is in the holding phase and the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area is in the refresh phase, and the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area scans to the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area, the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area writes the incoming data voltage to the gate of the driving transistor to perform display refresh; when the pixel circuit in the first predetermined display area scans to the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area, the pixel circuit in the second predetermined display area stops writing the incoming data voltage to the gate of the driving transistor to perform display holding.
