Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of Liquid Crystal Display And Method For Driving, and particularly wear the Liquid Crystal Display And Method For Driving of voltage (feed-through voltage) relevant for a kind of compensation feedback.
Background technology
In conventional liquid crystal; As if all identical words of each sub-pixel area in the display unit; Then under the situation that receives identical data voltage; The grid leak utmost point stray capacitance and the value of storage capacitors of the liquid crystal capacitance of each sub-pixel, transistor switch are identical haply, wear voltage (feed-through voltage) value and have identical feedback.Because the size of liquid crystal capacitance and received data voltage, and the area of pixel or shape have relation, so area that ought two subpixels or shape are not simultaneously, magnitude of voltage is worn in the feedback of two subpixels will difference.
Please with reference to Fig. 1, it illustrates the equivalent circuit diagram of the parton pixel of conventional liquid crystal.In this sub-pixel driving circuit, suppose that sub-pixel A is different with area or the shape of sub-pixel B.So when sub-pixel A receives identical data voltage with sub-pixel B, the liquid crystal capacitance C of sub-pixel A
LclLiquid crystal capacitance C with sub-pixel B
1c2Inequality.And because sub-pixel A is identical with the transistor design of sub-pixel B, so the stray capacitance C between the grid of sub-pixel A and drain electrode
Gd1Grid leak utmost point stray capacitance C with sub-pixel B
Gd2Then can be identical, and the storage capacitors C of sub-pixel A
S1, with the storage capacitors C of sub-pixel B
S2Also be designed to identical.
Now further specify feedback with the equivalent electrical circuit of the sub-pixel A of Fig. 1 and wear voltage.Please refer to Fig. 1, in the moment that gate line produces change in voltage, because the cause of transistor switch T1 coupling capacitance makes sub-pixel A produce feedback and wear effect, and make the voltage on the pixel electrode squint that its side-play amount is feedback and wears voltage downwards.When the gate line activation, the grid voltage of sub-pixel A is by V
GlRise to V
GhThe time, this feedback is worn voltage and is (V

Lcl).Formula can be known thus, and voltage and liquid crystal capacitance, grid leak utmost point stray capacitance are worn in feedback, storage capacitors is relevant.When so the area of group pixel A and sub-pixel B is inequality, the liquid crystal capacitance of sub-pixel A and sub-pixel B, grid leak utmost point stray capacitance, storage capacitors are also inequality.Therefore, to wear voltage also inequality for the feedback that produced of sub-pixel A and sub-pixel B.So, when input corresponded to positive polarity data voltage or the negative polarity data voltage of same gray level value simultaneously, sub-pixel A and sub-pixel B will produce different brightness.
Please refer to Fig. 2, it illustrates is one of the drive waveforms figure example of sub-pixel A and sub-pixel B.The longitudinal axis of this oscillogram is the expression magnitude of voltage, and transverse axis is the express time value.Wherein waveform 201 is the portion waveshape of scanning-line signal, and waveform 202 is for being sent to the segment voltage waveform of sub-pixel A and B by data line.Waveform 203 and 204 is respectively the voltage waveform of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel A and B.Can know by waveform 203; In the first image time F1; The group pixel A receives after positive polarity data voltage (Data voltage) V+, because scanning voltage is reduced to the caused feedback of low level by high levle and wears effect, voltage Δ V is worn in first feedback of will squinting downwards of the voltage of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel A
F1And transfer voltage V to
A+And in the first image time F1, the group pixel B receives after the identical positive polarity data voltage V+, because effect is worn in feedback, voltage Δ V is worn in second feedback of will squinting downwards of the voltage of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel B
F2And transfer V to
B+
Likewise, in the second image time F2, the group pixel A receives after the negative polarity data voltage V-, because scanning voltage is reduced to the caused feedback of low level by high levle and wears effect, voltage Δ V is worn in first feedback of will squinting downwards of the voltage of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel A
F1And transfer voltage V to
A-And in the second image time F2, the group pixel B receives after the identical negative polarity data voltage V-, because effect is worn in feedback, voltage Δ V is worn in second feedback of will squinting downwards of the voltage of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel B

Because the area of sub-pixel A and sub-pixel B is unequal, so voltage Δ V is worn in first feedback

ComThe time, sub-pixel B is after receiving this adjusted positive polarity data voltage and negative polarity data voltage, and the pixel electrode of sub-pixel B is presented the permanent asymmetric common voltage V of voltage after wearing effect in process
ComSo; To make the group pixel B when doing reversal of poles; If receive the words of the positive polarity data voltage and the negative polarity data voltage that correspond to the same gray level value; Because effects is worn in feedback, two voltages that correspond to positive polarity pixel voltage and negative polarity pixel voltage of the pixel electrode of sub-pixel B will be asymmetric with common voltage V
Com, make sub-pixel B show different brightness, and produce flicker.

aLikewise; If the positive polarity data voltage that first sub-pixel 304 corresponds to certain GTG value equals second sub-pixel, the 305 correspondences positive polarity data voltage of GTG value so far, then first sub-pixel, 304 correspondences so far the negative polarity data voltage of GTG value be not equal to second sub-pixel, the 305 correspondences negative polarity data voltage of GTG value so far.
Moreover, also can learn by the table of comparisons of Fig. 4, be example with GTG value 0, if the positive polarity data voltage V of second sub-pixel, 305 corresponding GTG values 0
a' equal the positive polarity data voltage V of first sub-pixel, 304 corresponding GTG values 64
