Description

驅動晶片之建立時間及保持時間調整電路 Drive wafer setup time and hold time adjustment circuit

本發明涉及一種驅動晶片的調整電路,特別涉及一種液晶監視器內驅動晶片的建立時間和保持時間的調整電路。 The present invention relates to an adjustment circuit for driving a wafer, and more particularly to an adjustment circuit for establishing a setup time and a retention time of a wafer in a liquid crystal monitor.

液晶監視器中驅動晶片(Source IC)在接收資料之前具有一段建立時間(setup time),它的定義為低擺幅差分訊號(RSDS,Reduced swing differential signal)開始傳送到驅動晶片起到第一個低擺幅差分訊號開始的時間,這段時間為低擺幅差分訊號從零到有即低擺幅差分訊號由零升高到高電位所需要的準備時間。當低擺幅差分訊號準備好之後,即在第一個低擺幅差分訊號開始時,驅動晶片開始抓取低擺幅差分訊號,保持時間(hold time)即是為了能夠讓驅動晶片抓取到正確的低擺幅差分訊號。 The source chip in the LCD monitor has a settling time before receiving the data. It is defined as the reduced swing differential signal (RSDS) that starts to be transmitted to the driver chip. The start time of the low-swing differential signal, which is the preparation time required for the low-swing differential signal to go from zero to the low-swing differential signal from zero to high. When the low swing differential signal is ready, that is, at the beginning of the first low swing differential signal, the driver chip begins to capture the low swing differential signal. The hold time is to enable the driver chip to be captured. Correct low swing differential signal.

由於習知所使用的液晶監視器的刷新頻率基本上皆為60HZ或者75HZ,故將建立時間和保持時間設定為一固定值即可。然,隨著對液晶監視器的品質要求的不斷增加,需要透過增加監視器的刷新頻率來彌補液晶監視器的動態模糊(Motion blur)等不足,如此則需要將建立時間和保持時間縮短。且,當用戶自定義刷新頻率時,無法做到建立時間和保持時間自動更新。 Since the refresh rate of the liquid crystal monitor used in the prior art is basically 60 Hz or 75 Hz, the settling time and the holding time can be set to a fixed value.
