本发明的实施方式
以下各实施例的说明是参考附加的图示,用以例示本揭示可用以实施的特定实施例。本揭示所提到的方向用语,例如[上]、[下]、[前]、[后]、[左]、[右]、[内]、[外]、[侧面]等,仅是参考附加图式的方向。因此,使用的方向用语是用以说明及理解本揭示,而非用以限制本揭示。在图中,结构相似的单元是用以相同标号表示。
下面结合附图和具体实施例对本揭示做进一步的说明:
本申请实施例提供一种显示面板、显示面板的驱动方法及电子装置,所述电子装置包括所述显示面板,所述显示面板的驱动方法用于驱动所述显示面板。
所述电子装置可以车载显示终端,例如车载显示器、行车记录仪等,所述电子装置也可以是移动终端,例如智能手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑等,或者是可穿戴式终端,例如智能手表、智能手环、智能眼镜、增强现实设备等,所述电子装置还可以是固定终端,如台式电脑、电视等,也可以是车载显示终端,如车载显示器或行车记录仪等。
如图1所示,图1为本申请实施例提供的显示面板的结构示意图,所述显示面板100包括显示区10、栅极驱动电路20以及多个源极驱动电路30。
所述显示区10包括呈多行和多列分布的多个子像素、多条沿第一方向x延伸并在第二方向y上间隔设置的扫描线110,以及多条沿第二方向y延伸并在第一方向x上间隔设置的数据线120,每一个子像素具有一个对应的开关薄膜晶体管。源极驱动电路30连接于所述数据线120,并通过数据线120向各子像素输出数据信号,栅极驱动电路20连接于扫描线110,用于控制各子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的开启和关闭。
在本申请实施例中,每一个源极驱动电路30都是一个源极驱动芯片,源极驱动芯片可以绑定在柔性电路板上,柔性电路板分别与显示区10和控制板40连接,控制板40与时序控制器50连接。
在实际应用中,源极驱动芯片不仅限绑定于所述柔性电路板上,源极驱动芯片也可以直接绑定在显示区10或者绑定于印刷电路板上。
在本申请实施例中,所述显示面板100包括两个栅极驱动电路20,两个栅极驱动电路20分别设置于显示区10的相对端,两个栅极驱动电路20同时向显示区10输出扫描信号,以此减小靠近栅极驱动电路20一端的子像素与远离栅极驱动电路20一端的子像素接收到扫描信号的延迟和电压差,从而可以提高显示面板的刷新率,并改善显示面板100的显示亮暗不均的问题。
在实际应用中,所述显示面板100也可以仅具有一个栅极驱动电路20,该栅极驱动电路20可以设置于显示区10的左右任意一侧。
在本申请实施例中,所述显示面板100为采用双栅极(dual-gate)架构的液晶显示面板,相邻两列子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的漏极连接于同一条数据线120,相邻两条扫描线110连接于同一行子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的栅极,所述开关薄膜晶体管的源极连接于所述子像素的子像素电极。通过扫描线110分时的控制子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的开启和关闭,实现一条数据线120分时驱动相邻两列子像素,如此可以缩小源极驱动电路30所占用的面积或减少源极驱动电路30的数量。
相较于传统单栅极架构的液晶显示面板,双栅极架构的液晶显示面板中每行子像素的充电时间缩短,由于扫描线110的电容电阻延迟导致,使得靠近栅极驱动电路20的子像素的电压与远离栅极驱动电路20的子像素的电压存在差异,导致显示面板100容易出现亮暗不均的问题。
在本申请实施例中,如图2所示,图2为本申请实施例通过的源极驱动电路的结构示意图,所述源极驱动电路30还包括时间控制单元31,所述时间控制单元31用于控制所述源极驱动电路30在一帧时间内向所述子像素输出所述数据信号的输出时长,所述子像素与所述栅极驱动电路之间的距离与所述输出时长成正相关,所述子像素与所述栅极驱动电路之间的距离与所述子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管在一帧时间内的开启时长成负相关。如此,可以减小靠近栅极驱动电路20的子像素的充电时间,并增大远离栅极驱动电路20的子像素的充电时间,以此减小靠近栅极驱动电路20的子像素与远离栅极驱动电路20的子像素的电压差,从而改善显示面板100存在的亮暗不均的问题,提高显示面板100的显示均一性。
在实际应用中,显示面板100的种类不仅限于上述的双栅极架构的液晶显示面板,显示面板100也可以采用常规架构的液晶显示面板或三栅极(tri-gate)架构的液晶显示面板。
进一步的,所述源极驱动电路30还包括输入寄存器32、线锁存器33、数模转换器34和输出缓冲电路35。
所述输入寄存器32用于接收并存储由时序控制器50输出至所述源极驱动电路30的显示数据。所述线锁存器33的输入端连接于所述输入寄存器32的输出端,所述线锁存器33用于锁存所述输入寄存器32中的显示数据。
所述线锁存器33的输出端连接于所述时间控制单元31的输入端,以将所述显示数据传递至所述时间控制单元。
所述数模转换器34的输入端连接于所述时间控制单元31的输出端,以接收由时间控制单元31调整后的数据信号,所述数模转换器34用于将所述时间控制单元31输出的数据信号转换为模拟信号。
所述数模转换器34的输出端连接于所述输出缓冲电路35的输入端,所述输出缓冲电路35用于将经过所述数模转换器34转换后的数据信号输出至各个子像素。
进一步的,如图3所示,图3为本申请实施例提供的第一种时间控制单元的结构示意图,所述时间控制单元31包括存储寄存器311、时钟发生器312和移位寄存器313。
所述存储寄存器311用于存储所述源极驱动电路30输出所述数据信号的输出时间的设定值。
所述时钟发生器312的输出端连接于所述时钟发生器312的输入端,所述时钟发生器312用于根据所述输出时长的设定值产生相应脉冲宽度的时钟信号。
所述移位寄存器313的输入端连接于所述线锁存器33,以接收由线锁存器33输出至所述移位寄存器313的数据信号,此时所述数据信号具有初始脉冲宽度。
所述移位寄存器313的输入端还连接于所述时钟发生器312的输出端,所述移位寄存器313用于根据所述时钟信号对所述数据信号的初始脉冲宽度进行调整,并输出与所述时钟信号相应脉冲宽度的数据信号。
进一步的,如图4所示,图4为本申请实施例提供的第二种时间控制单元的结构示意图,所述时间控制单元31还包括检测模块314,所述检测模块314用于获取连接于同一所述源极驱动电路的多列所述子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管在一帧时间内的开启时长,并根据各所述开关薄膜晶体管的所述开启时长获得平均开启时长。
在一实施例中,所述检测模块314根据各所述开关薄膜晶体管的所述开启时长获得平均开启时长的过程具体包括:获取所述开启时长中的最大开启时长和最小开启时长;根据所述最大开启时长和最小开启时长,获得连接于同一所述源极驱动电路30的多列所述子像素对应的所述开关薄膜晶体管在一帧时间内的平均开启时长,所述平均开启时长为最大开启时长和最小开启时长的平均值。
在实际应用中,可以仅获取连接于同一源极驱动电路30的多列子像素中的第一列和最后一列子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的开启时长,并将第一列和最后第一列子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的开启时长作为最大开启时长和最小开启时长。
在一实施例中,也可以通过检测模块314获取连接于同一所述源极驱动电路30的多列子像素对应的薄膜晶体管的开启时长,并将各列子像素对应的薄膜晶体管的开启时长累加,将累加后的总开启时长除以连接于同一所述源极驱动电路的子像素的列数,从而可以得到平均开启时长。
在一实施例中,时间控制电源31也可以不包含检测模块314,而是通过外部检测设备直接检测并获取连接于同一所述源极驱动电路的多列所述子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的开启时长,并根据各所述开关薄膜晶体管的所述开启时长获得平均开启时长,再根据源极驱动电路30对应的平均开启时长,通过输入不同的输出时长的值,以获得能够使显示效果达到最佳的输出时长的值,并将该输出时长的设定值存储至存储寄存器311中。该输出时长的设定值为固定值,在日常使用过程中不会自动发生能改变,但是该输出时长的设定值可以根据需求通过电子装置自身的软件或外接设备来调节。
进一步的,所述时间控制单元还包括档位设定模块315,所述档位设定模块315用于根据所述源极驱动电路的数量以及所述平均开启时长,设置并选择输出调节档位。
所述档位设定模块315的输入端连接于所述检测模块314的输出端,所述档位设定模块315根据所述源极驱动电路的数量以及所述平均开启时长,设置并选择输出调节档位的过程具体包括:获取所述子像素达到目标电压所需的有效充电时长;根据所述源极驱动电路30在一帧时间内向所述子像素输出所述数据信号的初始输出时长、所述有效充电时长以及所述平均开启时长,获得所述输出时长;根据所述源极驱动电路30的数量以及各个所述源极驱动电路30对应的所述平均开启时长,设置多种输出调节档位和每种所述输出调节档位对应的所述输出时长。
进一步的,所述根据所述源极驱动电路在一帧时间内向所述子像素输出所述数据信号的初始输出时长、所述有效充电时长以及所述平均开启时长,获得所述输出时长的过程具体包括:根据所述平均开启时长和所述有效充电时长,获得输出补偿时长;根据所述初始输出时长和所述输出补偿时长,获得所述输出时长。需要说明的是,初始输出时长为数据信号在未经过时间控制单元31调整之前的脉冲宽度。
在本实施例中,所述输出时长调整值为所述平均开启时长与所述有效充电时长之差,所述输出时长为所述初始输出时长与所述输出补偿时长之差,其公式可以为:T 1=T 0-(T 2-T 3),其中T 0为初始输出时长,T 1为输出时长,T 2为平均开启时长,T 3为有效充电时长之差。
在一实施例中,如图1所示,所述显示面板包括12个源极驱动电路30,编号依次为DR 1、DR 2……DR 12,其中DR 1和DR 12与栅极驱动电路20的距离最小,DR 1和DR 12所连接的子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长最大,DR 6和DR 7距离栅极驱动电路20的距离最大,DR 6和DR 7所连接的子像素对应的开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长最小,由DR 1至DR 6、以及DR 12至DR 7,开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长逐渐减小。
可以在输出调节档位中将输出时间的档位设置为6档,其中DR 1与DR 12的档位相同、DR 2与DR 11的档位相同,以此类推,DR 6与DR 7的档位相同,由DR 1至DR 6、以及DR 12至DR 7,输出时长的设定值逐渐增大。在实际应用中,并不要求每一个源极驱动电路30都具有一个单独的档位,相邻两个或多个源极驱动电路30也可以共用一个档位。
如图5所示,图5为本申请实施例提供的扫描信号与数据信号的相对时序关系图。在一实施例中,设定源极驱动电路30的初始输出时长T 0为2μs,经测得DR 1和DR 12对应的开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长T 2均为1.7μs,有效充电时长T 3为1.5μs,可以得出DR 1的输出时长T 1为1.8μs。DR 6对应的开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长T 2均为1.2μs,有效充电时长T 3为1.5μs,可以得出DR 6的输出时长T 1为2.3μs,如此可以在原有初始输出时长的基础上,减小DR1的输出时长,并增大DR6的输出时长,以此使DR1和DR6对应的子像素均能够在相近的充电时间内达到目标电压,并且降低DR1连接的子像素与DR6连接的子像素之间的电压差,从而改善显示面板的亮暗不均的问题。
需要说明的是图4中仅示意DR 1、DR 6以及DR 7对应的扫描信号与数据信号的相对时序关系,其他源极驱动电路的对应的扫描信号与数据信号的相对时序关系可参考图4,此处不再赘述。
档位设定模块315的输出端连接于所述存储寄存器311的输入端,存储寄存器311可将档位设定模块315设定的多种输出调节档位和每种输出调节档位对应的输出时长的设定值进行存储。在显示面板及电子装置工作的过程中,可通过检测模块314检测源极驱动电路30对应的开关薄膜晶体管的平均开启时长,档位设定模块315根据该平均开启时长选择相应的档位,并控制存储寄存器311向时钟发生器312输出与该档位相应的输出时长的设定值。
