본 발명은 액정표시장치의 데이터 드라이버의 면적을 줄이는 기술에 관한 것으로, 특히 데이터 출력라인을 공유하여 데이터 드라이버 회로의 면적을 줄일 수 있도록 한 액정표시장치의 데이터 드라이버 회로에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a technique for reducing the area of a data driver of a liquid crystal display device, and more particularly to a data driver circuit of a liquid crystal display device capable of reducing the area of a data driver circuit by sharing data output lines.

일반적으로, 액정표시장치(LCD)는 경량, 박형, 저소비 전력구동 등의 특징으로 인하여 그 응용범위가 사무자동화 기기, 오디오/비디오기기 등으로 점차 확대되고 있는 추세에 있다. 이와 같은 LCD는 매트릭스 형태로 배열된 다수의 제어용 스위치들에 인가되는 영상신호에 따라 광빔의 투과량이 조절되어 화면에 원하는 화상을 표시하게 된다.In general, liquid crystal display (LCD) has a trend that the application range is gradually expanded to office automation equipment, audio / video equipment, etc. due to features such as light weight, thin, low power consumption. The LCD displays a desired image on a screen by adjusting the amount of light beams transmitted in accordance with an image signal applied to a plurality of control switches arranged in a matrix.

액정표시장치에서, 데이터 드라이버는 타이밍 콘트롤러로부터 데이터 제어 신호들(SSP,SSC,SOE,POL)에 응답하여 수평 기간(H1,H2....)마다 1라인 분씩의 화소 신호를 액정패널상의 데이터 라인들에 공급한다. 특히, 데이터 드라이버는 타이밍 콘트롤러로부터 입력되는 디지털 비디오 데이터(R,G,B)를 감마전압 발생부의 감마전압을 이용하여 아날로그 비디오 신호로 변환하여 공급한다. 이러한 데이터 드라이버는 데이터 라이들을 분리 구동하는 다수개의 데이터 드라이브 집적회로들로 구성된다.In the liquid crystal display, the data driver outputs a pixel signal of one line per horizontal period (H1, H2 ....) in response to the data control signals SSP, SSC, SOE, and POL from the timing controller. To the lines. In particular, the data driver converts the digital video data R, G, and B input from the timing controller into an analog video signal using the gamma voltage of the gamma voltage generator. This data driver consists of a plurality of data drive integrated circuits that drive the data lie separately.

도 1은 종래 기술에 의한 데이터 드라이버의 블록도이다. 여기서, 래치회로(Splatchs)가 6bit 회로로 구현되는 경우, 각 래치회로(Splatchs)는 6 개의 래치회로로 구성되며, 이들의 회로 면적은 1 픽셀(pixel)의 면적에 해당된다. 그런데, 6개의 회로를 1 픽셀의 면적에 모두 내장하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 액정 패널상에서 데이터 드라이버를 상하로 분리 배치하는 방법을 사용하였다.1 is a block diagram of a data driver according to the prior art. Here, when the latch circuits (Splatchs) is implemented as a 6-bit circuit, each latch circuit (Splatchs) is composed of six latch circuits, their circuit area corresponds to the area of one pixel (pixel). However, it is difficult to embed all six circuits in an area of one pixel. Therefore, a method of separating and disposing the data driver up and down on the liquid crystal panel was used.

도 2는 상기 도 1에서 래치회로(Splatchs)의 상세 구성을 보인 SOP(SOP: System On Panel) 상의 블록도로서 이에 도시한 바와 같이, 하나의 데이터가 다른 데이터 회로를 통해 출력되므로 아웃인에이블신호(OE1-OE3)의 발생 로직이 복잡해 지고, 메모리 기능을 수행하는 소자가 에스램(SRAM)으로 구현되어야 한다. FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a SOP (SOP: System On Panel) showing the detailed configuration of the latch circuits in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 1, since one data is output through another data circuit. The logic of generation of (OE1-OE3) becomes complicated, and a device that performs a memory function must be implemented in SRAM.

이와 같이 종래의 데이터 드라이버에 있어서는 하나의 데이터가 다른 데이터 회로를 통해 출력되므로 아웃인에이블신호들의 발생 로직이 복잡해 지는 단점이 있고, 더욱이 라인메모리 기능을 수행하는 소자가 반드시 에스램으로 구현되어야 하므로 회로 면적이 증가되는 단점이 있었다. As described above, in the conventional data driver, since one data is output through another data circuit, the logic of generating out enable signals is complicated. Furthermore, since a device performing a line memory function must be implemented as an SRAM, a circuit is required. There was a disadvantage that the area is increased.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 R,G,B 데이터를 D/A변환기에 전달하는 경우, 그 R,G,B 데이터들의 출력라인을 공유하는 래치회로를 제공함에 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a latch circuit that shares output lines of R, G, and B data when R, G, and B data are transferred to a D / A converter.

이와 같이 구성한 본 발명의 작용을 첨부한 도 5를 참조하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to Figure 5 attached to the operation of the present invention configured as described above in detail as follows.

도 3은 본 발명에 의한 데이터 드라이버의 직렬/병렬 래치 구조를 나타낸 것으로, 이에 도시한 바와 같이 타이밍 콘트롤러측으로부터 순차적으로 공급되는 적,녹,청색용 데이터(DATA_R),(DATA_G),(DATA_B)가 적색용 래치(32R), 녹색용 래치(32G), 청색용 래치(32B)에 래치된다. 3 shows a serial / parallel latch structure of a data driver according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, red, green, and blue data DATA_R, DATA_G, and DATA_B are sequentially supplied from a timing controller. Is latched to the red latch 32R, the green latch 32G, and the blue latch 32B.

이때, 쉬프트레지스터(31)는 타이밍 콘트롤러(도면에 미표시)로부터 1 수평주기(1H)로 입력되는 소스 스타트 펄스(SSP)를 소스 샘플링 클럭신호(SSC)에 따라 쉬프트시켜 상기 래치(32R),(32G),(32B)에 샘플링신호로 출력한다. At this time, the shift register 31 shifts the source start pulse SSP input in one horizontal period 1H from the timing controller (not shown) in accordance with the source sampling clock signal SSC, so that the latch 32R, ( 32G) and 32B are output as sampling signals.

그리고, 상기 적색용 래치(32R), 녹색용 래치(32G), 청색용 래치(32B)에 래치된 적,녹,청색용 데이터(R),(G),(B)는 상기 타이밍 콘트롤러로부터 출력되는 아웃인에이블신호(OER),(OEG),(OEB)에 의해 온되는 스위치(SW_R),(SW_G),(SW_B)를 각기 통해 디지털/아날로그 변환기(DAC)(33)에 전달된다. The red, green, and blue data (R), (G), and (B) latched in the red latch (32R), the green latch (32G), and the blue latch (32B) are output from the timing controller. The switches SW_R, SW_G, and SW_B which are turned on by the enable signals OER, OEG, and OBE are transmitted to the digital-to-analog converter DAC 33, respectively.

도 4는 상기 적색용 래치(32R), 녹색용 래치(32G), 청색용 래치(32B) 중에서 적색용 래치(32R)를 예로 하여 이의 상세 회로를 나타낸 것이다. 4 shows a detailed circuit of the red latch 32R, the green latch 32G, and the blue latch 32B as an example of the red latch 32R.

즉, 상기 타이밍 콘트롤러측으로부터 공급되는 적색용 데이터(DATA_R)가 상기 소스 샘플링 클럭신호(SSC)에 의해 턴온되는 모스트랜지스터(M41)를 통해 샘플링되어 인버터(I41)에 래치된다.That is, the red data DATA_R supplied from the timing controller side is sampled through the MOS transistor M41 turned on by the source sampling clock signal SSC and latched in the inverter I41.

이후, 상기 인버터(I41)에 래치된 상기 적색용 데이터(DATA_R)가 로드신호(LP)에 의해 턴온되는 모스트랜지스터(M42)를 통해 로드되어 인버터(I42)에 래치된다.Thereafter, the red data DATA_R latched in the inverter I41 is loaded through the MOS transistor M42 turned on by the load signal LP and latched in the inverter I42.

상기와 같은 과정을 통해 최종적으로 인버터(I42)에 래치된 적색용 데이터(DATA_R)는 상기 타이밍 콘트롤러로부터 출력되는 아웃인에이블신호(OER)에 의해 모스트랜지스터(T43)가 턴온될 때, 그 모스트랜지스터(T43)를 통해 상기 디지털/아날로그 변환기(DAC)(33)에 전달된다. 여기서, 상기 모스트랜지스터(T43)는 상기 도 3에서 스위치(SW_R)에 해당된다.The red data DATA_R finally latched in the inverter I42 through the above process is the MOS transistor when the MOS transistor T43 is turned on by the out enable signal OER output from the timing controller. It is transmitted to the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) 33 via T43. The MOS transistor T43 corresponds to the switch SW_R in FIG. 3.

도 5는 상기 도 4에 나타낸 적색용 래치(32R)에서의 데이터 처리과정을 나타낸 각 제어신호의 타이밍도이다. FIG. 5 is a timing diagram of each control signal showing a data processing procedure in the red latch 32R shown in FIG.

상기 디지털/아날로그 변환기(33)는 상기와 같은 처리과정을 통해 입력되는 디지털 형태의 적,녹,청색용 데이터(R),(G),(B)를 아날로그 신호로 변환하여 출력하고, 이들은 라인 셀렉터(34)를 통해 선택되어 액정패널상의 데이터라인으로 보내진다.The digital-to-analog converter 33 converts the red, green, and blue data (R), (G), and (B) in digital form, which are input through the above-described processing, into analog signals, and these are lines. It is selected through the selector 34 and sent to the data line on the liquid crystal panel.

결국, 상기 도 3에 도시한 본 발명의 데이터 드라이버의 직렬/병렬 래치의 구조적인 특징을 살펴보면, 상기 적색용 래치(32R), 녹색용 래치(32G), 청색용 래치(32B)가 각기 독립적으로 구성되고, 출력선을 서로 공유한다는 것이다.As a result, the structural features of the serial / parallel latches of the data driver of the present invention shown in FIG. 3 show that the red latch 32R, the green latch 32G, and the blue latch 32B are each independently. Configured to share output lines with each other.

그리고, 상기 각 래치(32R),(32G),(32B)에 각기 래치된 적,녹,청색용 데이터(R),(G),(B)가 상기 스위치(SW_R),(SW_G),(SW_B)를 각기 통해 디지털/아날로그 변환기(DAC)(33)에 독립적으로 전달된다는 것이다. 이와 같은 구조적인 특성으로 인하여 래치회로의 구성이 간단해 진다.The red, green, and blue data (R), (G), and (B) latched in the latches 32R, 32G, and 32B, respectively, correspond to the switches SW_R, SW_G, and (B). SW_B) is independently transmitted to the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) 33 respectively. Such a structural characteristic simplifies the configuration of the latch circuit.

그리고, 상기 스위치(SW_R),(SW_G),(SW_B)의 스위칭 동작을 제어하는 아웃인에이블신호(OER),(OEG),(OEB)의 논리적 구성이 간단해지고, 메모리 기능을 수행하는 래치 회로를 에스램(SRAM)으로 구현할 필요없이 도 4에서와 같이 인버터 등으로 구현할 수 있게 되므로 회로 면적을 줄일 수 있게 된다.In addition, the logical structure of the out enable signals OER, OEG, and OBE controlling the switching operations of the switches SW_R, SW_G, and SW_B is simplified, and the latch circuit performs a memory function. Since it can be implemented in an inverter or the like as shown in Figure 4 without having to implement the SRAM (SRAM) it is possible to reduce the circuit area.

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명은, 적,녹,색용 래치를 독립적으로 구성하여 이들에 래치된 적,녹,청색용 데이터를 공유된 출력선을 통해 디지털/아날로그 변환기에 함으로써, 래치회로의 구성이 간단해 지는 효과가 있다.As described in detail above, the present invention provides a configuration of a latch circuit by independently configuring red, green, and blue latches, and red, green, and blue data latched thereon to a digital / analog converter through a shared output line. This simplifies the effect.

그리고, 메모리 기능을 수행하는 래치 회로를 에스램으로 구현할 필요없이 인버터 등으로 구현할 수 있게 되므로 회로의 면적을 줄일 수 있는 효과가 있다.In addition, since the latch circuit that performs the memory function may be implemented as an inverter without implementing the SRAM, the circuit area may be reduced.
