Description

显示面板的驱动方法、驱动装置及显示装置 技术领域
本申请涉及显示技术领域,特别是涉及一种显示面板的驱动方法、驱动装置及显示装置。
背景技术
范例性的垂直配向(Vertical Alignment,VA)液晶显示装置,在显示画面时,由于液晶分子维持一定的偏转角,使得在不同视角下光的透过率不同,造成使用者在不同视角观看画面时会感受到画面的颜色有所差异的色偏现象。
为了改善色偏问题,目前一般的做法是将每个像素单元中RGB子像素的像素电极划分为两个独立的像素电极,对两个像素电极分别施加不同的驱动电压来改善色偏的问题。这种方法,由于像素电极数量的增加,需要重新设计更多的金属走线或TFT(Thin Film Transistor,薄膜晶体管)元件来驱动显示面板,而金属走线和TFT元件不透光,因此这种方法会牺牲可透光开口区、影响面板的透过率、提升背光成本。
为了避免增加金属走线或TFT元件,另一种方法是对每相邻的两个像素单元分别施加高、低两种不同的驱动电压信号,具体的,在同一时刻,每相邻的两个子像素被施加不同极性的驱动电压。采用这种方式,会导致同一列子像素的高电压的正负极性不匹配,即同一列中正极性高电压的子像素数量与负极性高电压的子像素的数量不一致。这样,由于寄生电容的影响,当同一列正极性高电压的子像素数量多于负极性高电压的子像素数量时,公共电压V com的等效电压相较于原V com有所提高,导致正极性高电压的子像素实际充电电荷减少、亮度降低,相反地使得负极性高电压子像素实际充电电荷增加、亮度增加,进而影响显示颜色及画质,产生画质输出异常的问题。

除非另有定义,本文所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本申请的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同。本文中在本申请的说明书中所使用的术语只是为了描述具体的实施方式的目的,不是旨在于限制本申请。本文所使用的术语“及/或”包括一个或多个相关的所列项目的任意的和所有的组合。
例如,一种显示面板的驱动方法,所述驱动方法包括:设定多个像素组,使每一所述像素组包括两行相邻的像素单元;对同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别施加极性相反的驱动电压,对每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压;使第一像素单元与第二像素单元在所述显示面板中相邻设置;对第一像素单元中的子像素和第二像素单元中的子像素分别施加不同电压等级的驱动电压。或者说,对显示面板中的各子像素分别施加驱动电压,使得同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别的驱动电压极性相反,并且使得每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素的驱动电压极性相反,并且使得所述第一像素单元中的子像素和所述第二像素单元中的子像素的驱动电压电压等级不同。
例如,一种显示面板的驱动装置,所述驱动装置包括:分组模块,用于设定多个像素组,使每一所述像素组包括两行相邻的像素单元;驱动模块,包括第一驱动单元、第二驱动单元及第三驱动单元;所述第一驱动单元,用于对同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别施加极性相反的驱动电压;所述第二驱动单元,用于对每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压;所述第三驱动单元,用于对所述第一像素单元中的子像素和所述第二像素单元中的子像素分别施加不同电压等级的驱动电压;其中第一像素单元与第二像素单元在所述显示面板中相邻设置。又如,显示面板具有呈矩阵分布的多个像素单元,所述多个像素单元包括若干第一像素单元及若干第二像素单元,所述第一像素单元与所述第二像素单元相邻设置,并且每一所述像素单元包括多个子像素。
例如,一种显示装置,包括显示面板及上述显示面板的驱动装置。
为了进一步理解上述显示面板的驱动方法、驱动装置及显示装置。下面结 合附图进行说明。
请一并参阅图1至图3,其中图1为本申请一实施例的显示面板的驱动方法的流程示意图,该驱动方法应用于显示面板。如图1所示,该驱动方法10包括以下步骤:
S101,设定多个像素组,使每一所述像素组包括两行相邻的像素单元。
例如,将显示面板中的多个像素单元划分为若干像素组,使每一所述像素组包括两行相邻的像素单元。其中,使第一像素单元与第二像素单元在所述显示面板中相邻设置。
S102,对同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别施加极性相反的驱动电压。
S103,对每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压。
S104,对第一像素单元中的子像素和第二像素单元中的子像素分别施加不同电压等级的驱动电压。
实际应用中,步骤S102、步骤S103及步骤S104可同时进行。例如,在同一帧画面的显示时间内对显示面板中的各子像素分别施加驱动电压,使得同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素的驱动电压极性相反,使得每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素的驱动电压极性相反,并且使得第一像素单元中的子像素和第二像素单元中的子像素的驱动电压的电压等级不同。
例如,不同的电压等级包括高电压等级和低电压等级,这样,能够使得显示面板的每一列(row)像素中,被施加高电压等级的正极性驱动电压的子像素的数量和被施加高电压等级的负极性驱动电压的子像素的数量相等,使得V com电压免受寄生电容的影响,从而确保图像信号的正确性,避免发生色偏或画质异常的现象。
其中,本申请实施例的“行”和“列”表示相互垂直的两种排列方向,例如,“行”表示纵向,“列”表示横向;又如,“行”表示横向,“列”表示纵向。即,本申请实施例中的“行”,可以是本领域普通技术人员所理解的“列”,本申请实施例中的“列”,也可以是本领域技术普通人员所理解的“行”。
其中,如图2所示,显示面板20具有呈矩阵分布的多个像素单元,所述多个像素单元包括若干第一像素单元P1及若干第二像素单元P2,所述第一像素单元与所述第二像素单元相邻设置,或者说第一像素单元与第二像素单元交替排列。具体的,每一所述像素单元包括多个子像素,例如每个像素单元包括颜色不同的多个子像素,又如每个像素单元分别包括红色子像素R、绿色子像素G及蓝色子像素B这三种子像素。其中(i,j)表示第i列第j行,(i,j+1)表示第i列第j+1行,(i+1,j)表示第i+1列第j行,以此类推。例如,如图2所示,与第一像素单元相邻的像素单元均为第二像素单元,与第二像素单元相邻的像素单元均为第一像素单元。
例如,如图3所示,以4行像素单元为例,将这4行像素单元划分为两个像素组,分别为第n组和第n+1组,使得每个像素组包括两行相邻的像素单元。其中,R1、G1和B1分别表示第一像素单元中的红色子像素、绿色子像素及蓝色子像素。R2、G2和B2分别表示第二像素单元中的红色子像素、绿色子像素及蓝色子像素。H表示第一电压等级,L表示第二电压等级,+表示正极性,-表示负极性。(i,j)表示第i列第j行,(i,j+1)表示第i列第j+1行,(i+1,j)表示第i+1列第j行,以此类推。
根据上述驱动方法,对同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别施加极性相反的驱动电压,例如第j行的R子像素、第j行的G子像素和第j行的B子像素都属于第j行像素单元,并且第j行的G子像素分别与第j行的R子像素和第j行的B子像素相邻,则对第j行的G子像素施加负极性的驱动电压,对第j行的R子像素和第j行的B子像素施加正极性的驱动电压;或者,对第j行的G子像素施加正极性的驱动电压,对第j行的R子像素和第j行的B子像素施加负极性的驱动电压,以使得同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素的驱动电压极性相反。
本实施例中,正极性指的是驱动电压的大小大于显示面板预设的公共电压V com,即驱动电压与V com电压的压差大于零;负极性指的是驱动电压的大小小于V com电压,即驱动电压与V com电压的压差小于零。
根据上述驱动方法,对每相邻两个像素组中相对应的子像素施加极性相反 的驱动电压。其中上述相对应指的是排列顺序或者排列位置相对应,例如每个像素单元包括依次排列的第一子像素、第二子像素及第三子像素,则每相邻两个像素组中的两个第一子像素为相对应的子像素,每相邻两个像素组中的两个第二子像素为相对应的子像素,每相邻两个像素组中的两个第三子像素为相对应的子像素。此时,对每相邻两个像素组中的第一子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压,对每相邻两个像素组中的第二子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压,并且对每相邻两个像素组中的第三子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压。又如,第n组和第n+1组为相邻的两个像素组,则对第n组中的R子像素施加正极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的R子像素施加负极性的驱动电压;对第n组中的G子像素施加负极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的G子像素施加正极性的驱动电压;对第n组中的B子像素施加正极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的B子像素施加负极性的驱动电压。或者,对第n组中的R子像素施加负极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的R子像素施加正极性的驱动电压;对第n组中的G子像素施加正极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的G子像素施加负极性的驱动电压;对第n组中的B子像素施加负极性的驱动电压,对第n+1组中的B子像素施加正极性的驱动电压。这样,使得每相邻两个像素组中相对应的子像素的驱动电压极性相反。
根据上述驱动方法,对所述第一像素单元中的子像素和所述第二像素单元中的子像素分别施加不同电压等级的驱动电压。例如,分别预先设置第一像素单元和第二像素单元各自对应的驱动电压等级,又如,预先设置第一像素单元对应的第一驱动电压等级及第二像素单元对应的第二驱动电压等级。
作为一种实施方式,对所述第一像素单元中的子像素施加预设第一电压等级的驱动电压;对所述第二像素单元中的子像素施加预设第二电压等级的驱动电压。其中,第一驱动电压等级和第二驱动电压等级中,一个为高电压等级,另一个为低电压等级。例如,第一驱动电压等级高于第二驱动电压等级,或者第一驱动电压等级低于第二驱动电压等级。
采用上述驱动方法,能够使得显示面板的每一列(row)像素中,被施加正极性高电压等级(H+)驱动电压的子像素的数量和被施加负极性高电压等级(H-)驱动电压的子像素的数量相等,例如图3中的每一列,代表正极性高电压等级 (H+)的子像素和代表负极性高电压等级(H-)的子像素各有3个。高电压等级正负极性的子像素数量相同能够使得V com电压免受寄生电容的影响,从而确保图像信号的正确性,避免发生色偏或画质异常的现象。
在一个实施例中,上述驱动方法还包括:对同一像素组中的各所述像素单元施加极性相同的驱动电压,并对同一像素单元中每相邻的两个子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压。例如,对同一像素组中的各所述像素单元中相对应的子像素施加极性相同的驱动电压,对同一像素单元中的所述第一子像素和所述第三子像素施加极性相同的驱动电压,并且对同一像素单元中的所述第二子像素施加与所述第一子像素极性相反的驱动电压。又如,如图3所示,对第n组中的各像素单元的R子像素均施加正极性的驱动电压,对第n组中的各像素单元的G子像素均施加负极性的驱动电压,对第n组中的各像素单元的B子像素均施加正极性的驱动电压,使得不仅同一像素组中各像素单元的驱动电压极性相一致,而且在任意一个像素单元中,R子像素和G子像素的驱动电压极性相反,G子像素和B子像素的驱动电压极性相反,即在同一个像素单元中每相邻的两个子像素的驱动电压极性相反。这样,在每一列高电压等级正负两种极性的子像素数量相同的前提下,还能使得同一行(column)子像素的驱动电压极性相同,进而使得同一数据线输出的多个电压信号之差维持在较小的范围内,能够避免数据驱动芯片发热或电压信号失真,从而进一步提升各子像素的显示质量。
在一个实施例中,上述显示面板为液晶显示面板,考虑到直流电场驱动液晶像素容易导致液晶材料发生化学反应并加速电极老化,进而缩短显示面板的寿命,因此为了保护液晶材料及电极,延长显示面板的寿命,对显示面板中的每个子像素进行交流驱动。具体地,对于同一个子像素,在每相邻的两帧显示时间内,分别施加不同极性的驱动电压以达到交流驱动的效果。例如,所述驱动方法还包括:在每相邻的两帧显示时间内,对同一所述子像素交替施加极性相反的驱动电压,或者说,对每一所述子像素,在每一帧显示时间内,施加与上一帧显示时间极性相反的驱动电压。例如,在第m帧显示时间内,对显示面板中的一些子像素施加如图3所示的驱动电压,而在第m+1帧显示时间内,对上述一些子像素施加如图4所示的驱动电压。可见,在每相邻的两帧显示时间 内,同一子像素的驱动电压极性发生变化,并且驱动电压等级保持不变。
作为一种实施方式,在驱动显示面板时,对于每个子像素,根据其所属的像素组及其在像素组中的位置确定驱动电压极性,根据其所属的像素单元确定驱动电压等级,进而通过预设的数据处理电路,根据各子像素的图像数据、对应的驱动电压极性和等级,得到各子像素的驱动电压,通过数据线将该驱动电压施加至各个子像素。
采用上述显示面板的驱动方法,驱动显示面板分别对如图5a、图5b、图5c、图5d、图5e、图5f、图5g及图5h所示这几种特定的测试画面进行显示,图中填充有黑色斜线的子像素表示该子像素对应的数据信号为暗态信号。经过实验,发现图5a和图5b的闪烁(Flicker)画面至图5h的画面显示无色偏问题,图5c的画面能够避免水平方向的串扰,图5d均无色偏问题,其中图5d表示每隔一个像素单元交替亮/暗显示的画面,图5e表示每隔两个像素单元交替亮/暗显示的画面,图5f表示每隔一个子像素交替亮/暗显示的画面,图5g表示每隔一列子像素交替亮/暗显示的画面,图5h表示每隔一列像素单元交替亮/暗显示的画面。由此可见,本申请实施例的显示面板的驱动方法具有良好的色偏改善效果。
本申请实施例还提供了一种显示面板的驱动装置60。显示面板具有呈矩阵分布的多个像素单元,其中,所述多个像素单元包括若干第一像素单元及若干第二像素单元,所述第一像素单元与所述第二像素单元相邻设置,并且每一所述像素单元包括多个子像素。
如图6所示,该驱动装置60包括分组模块610及驱动模块620,其中驱动模块620包括第一驱动单元621、第二驱动单元622及第三驱动单元623。分组模块610用于设定多个像素组,使每一所述像素组包括两列相邻的像素单元;所述第一驱动单元621用于对同一行像素单元中每相邻的两行子像素分别施加极性相反的驱动电压;所述第二驱动单元622用于对每相邻两个所述像素组中相对应的子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压;所述第三驱动单元623用于对所述第一像素单元中的子像素和所述第二像素单元中的子像素分别施加不同电压等级的驱动电压。例如,所述像素单元包括依次排列的第一子像素、第二子像素及第三子像素;所述第二驱动单元还用于对每相邻两个所述像素组中的两个所 述第一子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压,对每相邻两个所述像素组中的两个所述第二子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压,并且对每相邻两个所述像素组中的两个所述第三子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压。这样,每一列中,被施加正极性高电压等级(H+)驱动电压的子像素的数量和被施加负极性高电压等级(H-)驱动电压的子像素的数量相等,使得V com电压免受寄生电容的影响,从而确保图像信号的正确性,避免发生色偏或画质异常的现象。
在其中一个实施例中,第三驱动单元623还用于对所述第一像素单元中的子像素施加预设第一电压等级的驱动电压;以及,对所述第二像素单元中的子像素施加预设第二电压等级的驱动电压。这样,能够保证每相邻的两个像素单元的驱动电压等级高低不同,且每相邻两个子像素组中的子像素的驱动电压极性相反。
在其中一个实施例中,驱动模块620还包括第四驱动单元及第五驱动单元,其中第四驱动单元用于对同一像素组中的各所述像素单元施加极性相同的驱动电压;第五驱动单元用于对同一像素单元中每相邻的两个子像素施加极性相反的驱动电压。例如所述第五驱动单元还用于对同一像素单元中的所述第一子像素和所述第三子像素施加极性相同的驱动电压,并且对同一像素单元中的所述第二子像素施加与所述第一子像素极性相反的驱动电压。这样,在每一列高电压等级正负两种极性的子像素数量相同的前提下,还能使得同一行(column)子像素的驱动电压极性相同,进而使得同一数据线输出的多个电压信号之差维持在较小的范围内,能够避免数据驱动芯片发热或电压信号失真,从而进一步提升各子像素的显示质量。
