技术领域 technical field
本发明是关于一种液晶显示装置及其驱动方法,特别关于一种应用插黑(灰)技术的液晶显示装置及其影像显示方法。The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and its driving method, in particular to a liquid crystal display device using black (gray) insertion technology and its image display method.
背景技术 Background technique
为了加强液晶显示装置的显示效果,目前常以加子帧(sub-frame)的方式缩短影像数据脉冲,称之为类脉冲式液晶显示技术,现有技术中常见的一种是加入一正常显黑(normally black)的子帧,可称为插黑或插灰技术。In order to enhance the display effect of liquid crystal display devices, image data pulses are often shortened by adding sub-frames, which is called pulse-like liquid crystal display technology. The common one in the prior art is to add a normal display A normally black subframe can be called a black-inserting or gray-inserting technique.
在现有技术的液晶显示装置的影像显示方法中,显示面上的像素是依照帧的动态/静态特性而在同一帧内统一选用动态/静态模式来驱动,即当像素要以动态模式来驱动时则以前述插黑(灰)画面的方法来实现,当像素要以静态模式来驱动时则不须插入其他暗色画面。In the image display method of the liquid crystal display device in the prior art, the pixels on the display surface are driven in the dynamic/static mode in the same frame according to the dynamic/static characteristics of the frame, that is, when the pixels are to be driven in the dynamic mode It is realized by the aforementioned method of inserting black (gray) pictures. When the pixels are to be driven in a static mode, there is no need to insert other dark pictures.
如图1所示,相邻两个像素101与102,其分别接收灰阶数据A与B,并在同一帧时间(frame time)Tf中显示。请参阅图2,现有技术中第一种常见的类脉冲式液晶装置的影像显示技术,是于像素101与102接收到灰阶数据A与B时,配合影像倍频技术,补进一正常显黑的子帧(normally blacksub-frame),例如一灰阶值为0的子帧,使得像素101与102如图2所示,仅在前半帧时间中分别显示灰阶数据为A与B的子帧,而在后半帧时间中为黑画面。如此一来,根据人眼追迹模型(eye-tracking model)可得,应用此一现有技术的插黑画面方法能有效使模糊宽度(blur width)减半。As shown in FIG. 1 , two
然而,由于此一现有技术的插黑帧方法使得像素仅在一半的时间中正确显示灰阶数据,而另一半的时间却是灰阶数据为0的正常显黑画面,因此将使得画面亮度减半,影响影像效果。However, due to the black frame insertion method of this prior art, the pixels only display grayscale data correctly in half of the time, while the other half of the time is a normal black picture with grayscale data of 0, so the brightness of the picture will be reduced. Halved, affect the image effect.
为了改善上述插黑画面的方法所造成的像素亮度减半问题,现有技术中第二种常见的类脉冲式液晶显示装置的影像显示技术是提供一不影响画面等效亮度的方法。请参阅图3。当像素101与102收到灰阶数据A与B时,此现有技术的方法根据预定的原则,让像素101依序显示子帧A’和C,以及让像素102依序显示子帧B’与D。像素101在帧时间Tf内显示子帧A’和C的平均亮度,与图1中直接在全部帧时间Tf内显示灰阶数据A的亮度效果相同;而像素102在帧时间Tf内显示子帧B’和D的平均亮度,与图1中直接在全部帧时间Tf内显示灰阶数据B的亮度效果相同。In order to improve the problem of halving the brightness of pixels caused by the method of inserting black images, the second common image display technology of pulse-like liquid crystal display devices in the prior art is to provide a method that does not affect the equivalent brightness of the image. See Figure 3. When
请再参阅图4,图4所示的对照表110是为图3所示的现有技术方法于产生子帧时所使用的预定原则的一范例。举例来说,根据图3与图4,现有技术的第二种类脉冲式液晶显示技术会在一像素接收到一原始灰阶数据150时,依序显示灰阶数据为250与0的二子帧;而于一像素接收到一原始灰阶数据151时,依序显示灰阶数据为255与0的二子帧。在图4所示的对照表110中,当原始灰阶值小于151时,会补进一黑画面,即产生一灰阶数据为0的第二子帧以及相搭配的第一子帧,以使得二子帧的综合亮度效果等于原始灰阶值的亮度。而在原始灰阶值大于152时,则会被补进一灰阶数据为255的第一子帧以及一对应的第二子帧,同样使得二子帧的综合亮度效果等于原始灰阶值的亮度。在一般的影像数据中,相邻的像素的灰阶值常相近。因此,若图3中的两像素101与102的原始灰阶值皆小于151,则子帧的灰阶值C与D将相等而皆为0;若图素101与102的原始灰阶值皆大于152,则子帧的灰阶值A’与B’将相等而皆为255。此两种情况皆能有效减少动态影像的模糊宽度,且又不影响影像显示的亮度。Please refer to FIG. 4 again. The look-up table 110 shown in FIG. 4 is an example of a predetermined principle used when generating subframes in the prior art method shown in FIG. 3 . For example, according to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , the second type of pulsed liquid crystal display technology in the prior art will sequentially display two sub-frames with gray-scale data of 250 and 0 when a pixel receives an original gray-scale data of 150 and when a pixel receives an
然而,在上述第二种现有技术中,当影像持续在动态模式中时,以插灰画面来取代插黑画面的确可改善动态画面的闪烁,但是当影像由动态转变为静态的瞬间,全部的像素是由动态模式改以静态模式来驱动,如此一来,由于影像转为静态之后并没有辅以插灰画面,因而使得整个影像的亮度突然增加,使用者将感受到影像产生突波,进而造成液晶显示装置显示影像的品质降低。However, in the above-mentioned second prior art, when the image continues to be in the dynamic mode, replacing the inserted black image with the gray image can indeed improve the flickering of the dynamic image, but when the image changes from dynamic to static, all The pixels are driven from the dynamic mode to the static mode. In this way, the brightness of the entire image suddenly increases because the image is converted to static without supplementary gray screen, and the user will feel the image surge. Furthermore, the image quality of the liquid crystal display device is degraded.
因此,如何提供一种液晶显示装置及其影像显示方法,避免上述问题的发生及改善上述的缺点,实为一重要的课题。Therefore, how to provide a liquid crystal display device and an image display method thereof to avoid the occurrence of the above-mentioned problems and improve the above-mentioned shortcomings is an important issue.

为达上述目的,依据本发明的一种液晶显示装置,是用以在依序显示一第一帧与一第二帧时驱动多数个像素,所述液晶显示装置包含一检测电路、一调整电路以及一灰阶转换电路。检测电路是检测第一帧与第二帧间的一灰阶差异量以判断第一帧与第二帧间的一驱动模式的变化以输出一驱动模式转换判断信号;调整电路是电性连接检测电路以依据驱动模式变化信号,调整在第二帧时以一动态模式驱动及以一静态模式驱动的像素数量比例;以及灰阶转换电路是电性连接调整电路,并依据所述像素数量比例输出各像素的对应灰阶数据。To achieve the above object, a liquid crystal display device according to the present invention is used to drive a plurality of pixels when sequentially displaying a first frame and a second frame, and the liquid crystal display device includes a detection circuit and an adjustment circuit and a grayscale conversion circuit. The detection circuit detects a gray scale difference between the first frame and the second frame to judge the change of a driving mode between the first frame and the second frame to output a driving mode conversion judgment signal; the adjustment circuit is an electrical connection detection The circuit adjusts the ratio of the number of pixels driven in a dynamic mode and driven in a static mode in the second frame by changing the signal according to the driving mode; and the grayscale conversion circuit is electrically connected to the adjustment circuit, and outputs according to the ratio of the number of pixels The corresponding grayscale data of each pixel.
为达上述目的,依据本发明的一种液晶显示装置包含多数个像素以及一控制电路,其中所述像素是用以显示一第一帧与一第二帧数据,部分像素是以一动态模式驱动,其余部分像素是以一静态模式驱动;控制电路是用以决定以动态模式驱动与静态模式驱动的像素数量比例。To achieve the above object, a liquid crystal display device according to the present invention includes a plurality of pixels and a control circuit, wherein the pixels are used to display a first frame and a second frame of data, and some pixels are driven in a dynamic mode , the rest of the pixels are driven in a static mode; the control circuit is used to determine the ratio of the number of pixels driven in the dynamic mode to the static mode.
依据本发明的液晶显示装置及影像显示方法,当第一帧与第二帧间的驱动模式产生转变时,即调整在第二帧时以一动态模式驱动及以一静态模式驱动的像素数量比例,并非让全部的像素以动态模式或是静态模式来显示第二帧。如此一来,即可避免影像在驱动模式产生转变时亮度突然剧烈改变,可让使用者较感受不到影像产生突波,进而可使液晶显示装置及其影像显示的品质提升。According to the liquid crystal display device and image display method of the present invention, when the driving mode between the first frame and the second frame changes, the proportion of the number of pixels driven in a dynamic mode and in a static mode is adjusted in the second frame , not to let all the pixels display the second frame in dynamic mode or static mode. In this way, it is possible to avoid a sudden sharp change in the brightness of the image when the driving mode is changed, so that the user is less likely to feel the image surge, thereby improving the quality of the liquid crystal display device and its image display.

具体实施方式 Detailed ways
以下将参照相关图式,说明依据本发明较佳实施例的液晶显示装置及其影像显示方法。A liquid crystal display device and an image display method thereof according to preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to related drawings.
首先,请参照图5至图7E所示,以说明本发明较佳实施例的一种液晶显示装置的影像显示方法。First, please refer to FIG. 5 to FIG. 7E to illustrate an image display method of a liquid crystal display device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
如图5所示,依据本发明较佳实施例的一种液晶显示装置的影像显示方法是用以在依序显示一第一帧与一第二帧时驱动多数个像素,所述影像显示方法包含步骤S01~S04。As shown in FIG. 5, an image display method of a liquid crystal display device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is used to drive a plurality of pixels when sequentially displaying a first frame and a second frame. The image display method Including steps S01-S04.
在步骤S01,首先检测第一帧与第二帧间的一灰阶差异量以判断第一帧与第二帧间的一驱动模式的变化。In step S01 , a gray level difference between the first frame and the second frame is firstly detected to determine a change of a driving mode between the first frame and the second frame.
在步骤S02,接着依据驱动模式的变化,调整在第二帧时以一动态模式驱动及以一静态模式驱动的像素数量比例。In step S02 , according to the change of the driving mode, the ratio of the number of pixels driven in a dynamic mode and driven in a static mode in the second frame is adjusted.
在步骤S03,输出第二帧时像素所对应的多数灰阶数据。In step S03, most grayscale data corresponding to the pixels in the second frame are output.
在步骤S04,依据第二帧时像素所对应的多数灰阶数据来驱动一液晶显示面板。In step S04 , a liquid crystal display panel is driven according to most of the gray scale data corresponding to the pixels in the second frame.
为了改善现有技术技术中当影像信号由动态帧转变为静态帧或是当视讯由静态帧转变为动态帧时,容易因为帧驱动模式的变化而让画面的亮度亦有突然的变化,进而产生了使用者可察觉的突波。因此,本实施例的影像显示方法是于帧驱动模式变化时,调整下一帧中以动态模式驱动及以静态模式驱动的像素数量比例,或是调整下一帧中以动态模式驱动的像素数量及以静态模式驱动的像素数量,并非如现有技术技术仅能够让下一帧的所有像素皆以动态模式来驱动或是全部皆以静态模式来驱动,而是让像素逐渐地以动态模式来驱动或是逐渐地以静态模式来驱动,因而当帧驱动模式变化时,可减少画面亮度突然变化的情况,进而减少突波的产生。需注意,本实施例中,各像素的驱动模式可不相同,像素以动态模式驱动是指所述像素利用现有技术的插灰技术来显示影像信号;而像素以静态模式驱动则指所述像素并未使用插灰技术来显示影像信号。In order to improve the existing technology, when the image signal changes from a dynamic frame to a static frame or when a video signal changes from a static frame to a dynamic frame, it is easy to cause a sudden change in the brightness of the screen due to the change of the frame driving mode, thereby causing The user can detect the surge. Therefore, the image display method of this embodiment is to adjust the ratio of the number of pixels driven in the dynamic mode and the static mode in the next frame when the frame driving mode changes, or adjust the number of pixels driven in the dynamic mode in the next frame And the number of pixels driven in the static mode, it is not like the existing technology can only make all the pixels of the next frame be driven in the dynamic mode or all are driven in the static mode, but let the pixels gradually be driven in the dynamic mode Drive or gradually drive in a static mode, so when the frame drive mode changes, it can reduce the sudden change of screen brightness, thereby reducing the generation of surges. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the driving mode of each pixel may be different. Driving a pixel in a dynamic mode means that the pixel uses the gray interpolation technology of the prior art to display an image signal; and driving a pixel in a static mode means that the pixel is driven in a static mode. The gray interpolation technique is not used to display the image signal.
如图6A与图6B所示,一个液晶显示装置的显示画面可分割为多数个区块,多数像素(如虚线所示)是分布于各区块中,区块是作为调整以动态模式驱动及以静态模式驱动的像素数量比例(以下是简称为动态/静态像素数量比例)的基本单位。另外,区块也不限定为方形矩阵,如图6B所示,区块是由多数行的像素所组成。As shown in FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B, the display screen of a liquid crystal display device can be divided into a plurality of blocks, and most pixels (as shown by dotted lines) are distributed in each block, and the blocks are driven in a dynamic mode as an adjustment and The basic unit of the ratio of the number of pixels driven by the static mode (hereinafter referred to as the ratio of the number of dynamic/static pixels). In addition, the block is not limited to a square matrix, as shown in FIG. 6B , the block is composed of pixels in multiple rows.
如图7A至图7B所示,区块是为一2x2的方形矩阵,当然,方形矩阵的数量并不受限制,也可为8x8或其他大小的方形矩阵。液晶显示装置的影像显示方法是可调整一个区块中的动态/静态像素数量比例,以下是以一个区块为2x2的方形矩阵为例来说明。As shown in FIGS. 7A to 7B , the block is a 2×2 square matrix. Of course, the number of the square matrix is not limited, and it can also be a square matrix of 8×8 or other sizes. The image display method of the liquid crystal display device can adjust the ratio of dynamic/static pixels in a block. The following is an example of a square matrix with a block size of 2×2.
如图7A所示,是显示第一帧中区块内的各像素皆以动态模式来驱动。如图7B所示,当步骤S01判断出驱动模式由动态的第一帧转换为静态的第二帧时,步骤S02是增加第二帧中以静态模式驱动的像素数量,其是将区块中于位置1的像素改以静态模式来驱动,而其他未标明数字的位置的像素仍沿用以动态模式来驱动。As shown in FIG. 7A , it is shown that each pixel in the block in the first frame is driven in a dynamic mode. As shown in Figure 7B, when step S01 determines that the driving mode is converted from the dynamic first frame to the static second frame, step S02 is to increase the number of pixels driven in the static mode in the second frame, which is to convert the pixels in the block to The pixel at
如图7C至图7E所示,液晶显示装置的影像显示方法于第二帧后还显示一第三帧至一第五帧,其中当处理到第三帧(图7C)时,步骤S02是逐渐增加第三帧至第五帧中以静态模式驱动的像素数量,其是将区块中,依序将位置2、3、4的像素也都改以静态模式来驱动。在各区块中,其未标明数字的位置的像素仍沿用以动态模式来驱动,直到第五帧时,区块内全部的像素皆以静态模式来驱动。As shown in Figure 7C to Figure 7E, the image display method of the liquid crystal display device also displays a third frame to a fifth frame after the second frame, wherein when the third frame (Figure 7C) is processed, step S02 is gradually Increasing the number of pixels driven in the static mode in the third frame to the fifth frame is to sequentially change the pixels at
需注意,图7A至图7E中帧的出现顺序,是与驱动的模式变化有关,当驱动模式由相反的变化方向时,也就是由静态转换为动态帧时,区块中像素的驱动模式变化比例,则由图7E至图7A的方向来改变。如图7E所示,是显示第一帧中区块中的各像素皆以静态模式来驱动,如图7D所示,当步骤S01判断出驱动模式由静态的第一帧转换为动态的第二帧时,步骤S02是减少第二帧中以静态模式驱动的像素数量,其是将各区块中原本标明为4的像素改以动态模式来驱动,而其他有标明数字的位置的像素仍沿用以静态模式来驱动。It should be noted that the order of appearance of the frames in Figure 7A to Figure 7E is related to the change of the driving mode. When the driving mode changes in the opposite direction, that is, when the static frame is converted into a dynamic frame, the driving mode of the pixels in the block changes The scale is changed from the direction of Fig. 7E to Fig. 7A. As shown in FIG. 7E, it shows that each pixel in the block in the first frame is driven in a static mode. As shown in FIG. 7D, when step S01 determines that the driving mode is converted from the static first frame to the dynamic second frame, step S02 is to reduce the number of pixels driven in the static mode in the second frame, which is to change the pixels originally marked as 4 in each block to be driven in the dynamic mode, while other pixels with marked numbers still use the Static mode to drive.
如图7C至图7A所示,液晶显示装置的影像显示方法于第二帧后还显示第三帧至第五帧,其中当处理到第三帧时,步骤S02是逐渐减少第三帧至第五帧中以静态模式驱动的像素数量,其是将各区块中,依序将原本标明为3、2、1的像素改以动态模式来驱动。在各区块中,其他有标明数字的位置的像素仍沿用以静态模式来驱动。直到第五帧时(如图7A),全部像素皆以动态模式来驱动。As shown in Figure 7C to Figure 7A, the image display method of the liquid crystal display device also displays the third frame to the fifth frame after the second frame, wherein when the third frame is processed, step S02 is to gradually reduce the third frame to the fifth frame The number of pixels driven in the static mode in the five frames is to change the pixels originally marked as 3, 2, and 1 in each block to be driven in the dynamic mode in sequence. In each block, other pixels marked with numbers are still driven in static mode. Until the fifth frame (as shown in FIG. 7A ), all pixels are driven in dynamic mode.
另外,若于调整帧像素的驱动比例,区块内的各像素尚未完全皆以静态模式或是以动态模式来驱动时且帧的驱动模式又改变,则只要将动态/静态像素数量比例反向调整即可。In addition, if the drive ratio of the frame pixels is adjusted, each pixel in the block is not completely driven in the static mode or in the dynamic mode and the frame driving mode is changed, then only the ratio of the dynamic/static pixel quantity is reversed Just adjust.
例如图7A至图7C所示,帧的驱动模式是先由动态模式改为静态模式,然而在第四帧时驱动模式却又改为动态模式,此时,只要以图7C至图7A的顺序依序减少各区块中以静态模式驱动的像素数量即可。同样类似的,当帧的驱动模式是先由静态模式改为动态模式时,若转变的途中帧的驱动模式又改以静态模式来驱动时,只要增加各区块中以静态模式驱动的像素数量即可。For example, as shown in Figure 7A to Figure 7C, the driving mode of the frame is first changed from the dynamic mode to the static mode, but the driving mode is changed to the dynamic mode in the fourth frame, at this time, as long as the order of Figure 7C to Figure 7A Sequentially reduce the number of pixels driven in static mode in each block. Similarly, when the driving mode of the frame is first changed from the static mode to the dynamic mode, if the driving mode of the frame is changed to the static mode during the transition, it is only necessary to increase the number of pixels driven by the static mode in each block. Can.

检测电路24是检测相邻帧(帧Fm-1与帧Fm间)的一灰阶差异量以判断帧Fm-1与帧Fm间的一驱动模式的变化,以输出一驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S。调整电路25是电性连接检测电路24以依据驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S,调整在帧Fm时以一动态模式驱动及以一静态模式驱动的像素数量比例。灰阶转换电路26是电性连接调整电路25,并依据像素数量比例输出各像素的对应灰阶数据。The
当灰阶转换电路26处理帧Fm时,检测电路24与调整电路25是依据帧Fm-1与帧Fm间的驱动模式变化来调整在帧Fm中以动态模式驱动及以静态模式驱动的像素数量比例,或是调整帧Fm中以动态模式驱动的像素数量及以静态模式驱动的像素数量。When the
帧数据是由输入缓冲区22输入,经处理后则由输出缓冲区23输出至一数据线驱动电路,数据线驱动电路是将帧数据中的各像素数据写入至一液晶显示面板各像素的储存电容中,借以控制对应的液晶偏转角度。由于数据线驱动电路、液晶显示面板的实体结构、以及其他配合的电路如扫描线驱动电路等并非本实施例的重点,故图示中并未绘出且以下不再赘述。The frame data is input by the
在本实施例中,检测电路24是将帧Fm-1与帧Fm内像素的灰阶数据值相减以得到多数个灰阶差值,并总合灰阶差值以得到一总合差值,且比较总合差值与一门槛值(threshold value)以产生驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S,借以判断帧Fm-1与帧Fm间的驱动模式是否变化。In this embodiment, the
当由动态模式驱动的帧Fm-1转换为由静态模式驱动的帧Fm时,驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S是位于一第一位准,当由静态的帧Fm-1转换为动态的帧Fm时驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S是位于一第二位准。When the frame F m-1 driven by the dynamic mode is converted to the frame F m driven by the static mode, the driving mode conversion judgment signal SD/S is at a first level, and when the frame F m-1 converted by the static mode When the frame F m is dynamic, the drive mode switching judgment signal SD/S is at a second level.
如图9所示,调整电路25包含一计数器(frame counter)251、多数个驱动模式表(matrix tables)252、一多工器253以及另一计数器254。其中,计数器251是计数帧Fm后的帧数量以输出一计数值Val,驱动模式表252是记录区块中像素以静态模式与以动态模式驱动的信息,各驱动模式表中以静态模式与以动态模式驱动的所述像素的比例是不相同,多工器253是依据计数值Val选择其中的一驱动模式表252以输出一像素驱动模式切换信号Smux。As shown in FIG. 9 , the adjusting
请同时参照图8及图9,计数器251是电性连接检测电路24以接收驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S,当驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S有变化时,计数器251便被触发而初始化。若驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S于第一位准时,计数器251被初始化为最小值,且每隔一个帧的时间(例如为60Hz)则将计数值Val加1以作为输出;若驱动模式转换判断信号SD/S于第二位准时,计数器251被初始化为最大值,且每隔一个帧的时间则将计数值Val减1以作为输出。Please refer to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 at the same time. The
驱动模式表252是与区块的大小一致,以区块为2x2的方形矩阵为例,调整电路25是具有四个驱动模式表252,各驱动模式表252记录的信息如图10A至图10D所示,其中,在驱动模式表252中标示为1者即区块中对应位置将以静态模式来驱动,标示为0者即区块中对应位置将以动态模式来驱动,各驱动模式表252中标示为1的数量皆有所不同。The drive mode table 252 is consistent with the size of the block. Taking the block as a 2x2 square matrix as an example, the
多工器253是依据计数值Val选择其中的一驱动模式表252,并将驱动模式表252逐行逐列地将各标示值输出以作为像素驱动模式切换信号Smux。The
当驱动模式由动态的帧Fm-1转换为静态的帧Fm时,计数值Val是增加,且随着帧Fm+1、Fm+2计数值Val是逐渐地增加,因此,多工器253是逐帧地选择内有较多标示为1的驱动模式表252作为输出,借以逐渐增加以静态模式驱动的像素数量。当计数值Val到达最大值时,即代表全部像素皆以静态模式来驱动。When the driving mode is converted from the dynamic frame F m-1 to the static frame F m , the count value Val increases, and the count value Val increases gradually with the frames F m+1 and F m+2 . Therefore, more The
当驱动模式由静态的帧Fm-1转换为动态的帧Fm时,计数值Val是减少,且随着帧Fm+1、Fm+2计数值Val是逐渐地减少,因此,多工器253是逐帧地选择内有较多标示为0的驱动模式表252作为输出,借以逐渐减少以静态模式驱动的像素数量。当计数值Val到达最小值时,即代表全部像素皆以动态模式来驱动。When the driving mode is converted from the static frame F m-1 to the dynamic frame F m , the count value Val is reduced, and the count value Val is gradually reduced with the frames F m+1 and F m+2 . Therefore, more The
另外,另一计数器254是于一个帧的两个子帧期间不断切换一子帧切换信号SH/L的位准。In addition, another
再者,驱动模式表252对应各像素的一位址是可每隔一个帧即变化一次,例如当驱动模式表252为方形矩阵时,即可旋转90度,以改变区块内各像素以不同驱动方式的位置,可避免显示影像时产生固定的图案;而当驱动模式表252为多数行的像素所组成时,则可任意或循序变换行的位置,以改变区块内各像素以不同驱动方式的位置。另外,此处所述的驱动模式表252亦可以一乱数产生表来取代,即区块内以静态模式/动态模式驱动的像素位置并不固定。Furthermore, the address corresponding to each pixel in the driving mode table 252 can be changed every other frame. The position of the driving mode can avoid producing a fixed pattern when displaying an image; and when the driving mode table 252 is composed of pixels in multiple rows, the position of the row can be changed arbitrarily or sequentially to change each pixel in the block to be driven differently. way location. In addition, the driving mode table 252 described here can also be replaced by a random number generation table, that is, the positions of pixels driven in the static mode/dynamic mode in the block are not fixed.
请再参照图8所示,灰阶转换电路26包含一多工器261、一动态高灰阶表262、一动态低灰阶表263以及一静态灰阶表264。其中,静态灰阶表264是用以查询出像素以静态模式驱动所对应的灰阶数据,动态高灰阶表262与动态低灰阶表263是用以查询出像素以动态模式驱动所对应的灰阶数据。通常,静态灰阶表264是对应于原始影像视讯数据的灰阶;动态高灰阶表262则较原始影像视讯数据的灰阶为亮;动态低灰阶表263则较原始影像视讯数据的灰阶为暗,或者是较黑色的灰阶值。Referring again to FIG. 8 , the
多工器261依据驱动模式表252的输出像素驱动模式切换信号Smux选择静态灰阶表264、动态高灰阶表262与动态低灰阶表263其中一个所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出。当某一像素位置选择静态模式驱动时,在一个帧期间,多工器261是选择静态灰阶表264所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出;当某一像素位置选择动态模式驱动时,多工器261是依据子帧切换信号SH/L于一个帧期间内先后选取动态高灰阶表262与动态低灰阶表263所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出。此输出是提供至数据线驱动电路以将像素数据写入至液晶显示面板的像素中,因此,在同一个帧中部分像素将以动态模式来驱动,其余部分像素将以静态模式来驱动。The
在另一实施例中,如图11所示,静态灰阶表264亦可改以一静态高灰阶表265与一静态低灰阶表266来实现,即在静态驱动模式中,亦以类似动态模式的驱动方式来驱动像素,唯静态高灰阶表265与静态低灰阶表266的灰阶差值可以较小。于此,多工器261依据驱动模式表252的输出像素驱动模式切换信号Smux选择静态高灰阶表265、静态低灰阶表266、动态高灰阶表262与动态低灰阶表263其中一个所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出。当某一像素位置选择静态模式驱动时,多工器261依据子帧切换信号SH/L于一个帧期间内先后选取静态高灰阶表265与静态低灰阶表266所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出;当某一像素位置选择动态模式驱动时,多工器261依据子帧切换信号SH/L于一个帧期间内先后选取动态高灰阶表262与动态低灰阶表263所查询出的灰阶数据作为输出。In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11 , the static grayscale table 264 can also be realized by a static high grayscale table 265 and a static low grayscale table 266. The dynamic mode is used to drive the pixels, only the gray scale difference between the static high gray scale table 265 and the static low gray scale table 266 can be small. Here, the
图12是揭露图11中灰阶转换电路26的一实施态样,如图12所示,灰阶转换电路26更包含一灰阶表源(LUT pool)267,灰阶表源267是储存有多数个灰阶表以供动态高灰阶表262、动态低灰阶表263、静态高灰阶表265、与静态低灰阶表266读取,借以逐画面、逐行、逐列、或逐像素地更新动态高灰阶表262、动态低灰阶表263、静态高灰阶表265、与静态低灰阶表266。FIG. 12 discloses an implementation of the
综上所述,因依据本发明的液晶显示装置及其影像显示方法,当第一帧与第二帧间的驱动模式产生转变时,即调整在第二帧时以动态模式驱动及以静态模式驱动的像素数量比例,并非让全部的像素以动态模式或是静态模式来显示第二帧。如此一来,即可避免影像在驱动模式产生转变时亮度突然剧烈改变,可让使用者较感受不到影像产生突波,进而可使液晶显示装置及其影像显示的品质提升。In summary, according to the liquid crystal display device and its image display method of the present invention, when the driving mode between the first frame and the second frame changes, it is adjusted to drive in the dynamic mode and in the static mode in the second frame. The ratio of the number of pixels driven does not allow all pixels to display the second frame in dynamic mode or static mode. In this way, it is possible to avoid a sudden sharp change in the brightness of the image when the driving mode is changed, so that the user is less likely to feel the image surge, thereby improving the quality of the liquid crystal display device and its image display.
