Abstract
The invention provides a gray scale voltage generation circuit, a generation method, a driving circuit and a display device. The gray scale voltage generation circuit comprises a gamma correction unit, a resistor string, a selection unit, multiple current interpolation arithmetic units and multiple voltage driving units. Since not all 2N gray scale voltages corresponding to image data with a high bit width of N bits are generated by the resistor string, and the resistor string is only adopted for generating 2M gray scale voltages corresponding to the first M bits of the image data with the high bit width, after the first voltage and the second voltage are selected from the 2M gray scale voltages, the difference value between the first voltage and the second voltage is equally divided, the voltage corresponding to the last (N-M) bits of the image data with the high bit width is selected, and finally the voltage and the first voltage are added to obtain a gray scale voltage corresponding to the image data with the high bit width. In this way, there is no need to increase the bit width of the gray scale voltage generation circuit by increasing the number of resistor strings and lines, and therefore increase of the line arrangement complexity and the driving chip area of the gray scale voltage generation circuit will not be caused.
