Description

液晶显示器的公共电压驱动电路 Common voltage driving circuit of liquid crystal display

技术领域 technical field

本发明涉及一种向液晶显示器(LCD)供应公共电压的器件,尤其涉及一种能防止液晶面板内公共电压飘移(float)的液晶显示器的公共电压驱动电路。The invention relates to a device for supplying common voltage to a liquid crystal display (LCD), in particular to a common voltage drive circuit of the liquid crystal display capable of preventing the common voltage from floating in the liquid crystal panel.

背景技术 Background technique

随着信息技术(IT)的发展,对平板显示器件的需求迅速增加。液晶显示器是一种传统的平板显示器件。With the development of information technology (IT), the demand for flat panel display devices is rapidly increasing. Liquid crystal display is a traditional flat panel display device.

液晶显示器是一种显示器件,其图像信息分别提供给以矩阵形式排列的像素以控制像素的透光率从而显示所需的图像。为此,液晶显示器包括液晶面板和驱动液晶面板的驱动IC(集成电路)(驱动器),其中,用于作为实现图像的最小单元的像素以矩阵形式排列在液晶面板上。此外,由于液晶显示器自身不发光,液晶显示器包括提供光的背光单元。A liquid crystal display is a display device whose image information is respectively provided to pixels arranged in a matrix to control the light transmittance of the pixels to display a desired image. To this end, the liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel on which pixels, which are minimum units for realizing an image, are arranged in a matrix and a driving IC (integrated circuit) (driver) driving the liquid crystal panel. In addition, since the liquid crystal display itself does not emit light, the liquid crystal display includes a backlight unit that provides light.

通常,如果液晶面板包括公共电压驱动电路(驱动IC),则通过该公共电压驱动电路,正极性或负极性的公共电压被施加到液晶面板上。这种情况下,由于驱动电路或外围电路附近出现的寄生电容或漏电流,所需电平(预定电平)的公共电压不能稳定地提供。Generally, if the liquid crystal panel includes a common voltage driving circuit (driving IC), a positive or negative common voltage is applied to the liquid crystal panel through the common voltage driving circuit. In this case, a common voltage of a desired level (predetermined level) cannot be stably supplied due to parasitic capacitance or leakage current occurring near the driver circuit or peripheral circuits.

例如,当负极性的公共电压通过公共电压驱动电路施加到液晶面板时,输出节点(Q节点)的电压没有维持在预定的初始电平,而是图1中所示由于寄生电容或漏电流的存在逐渐变化。For example, when a common voltage of negative polarity is applied to the liquid crystal panel through the common voltage driving circuit, the voltage of the output node (Q node) is not maintained at a predetermined initial level, but is shown in FIG. 1 due to parasitic capacitance or leakage current. There is gradual change.

换句话说,正极性和负极性输出节点(Q节点,Q节点)电压交替地维持“低”电平,但是无法维持在预定的初始电平(理想情况下的Q节点或理想情况下的Q节点)上而是逐渐升高。In other words, positive and negative polarity output node (Q node, Q node) voltages alternately maintain "low" levels, but fail to maintain a predetermined initial level (ideally Q node or ideally Q node) but gradually increased.

这导致了公共电压漂移现象,产生如图2中所示的有缺陷的屏幕图像。This results in a common voltage drift phenomenon, resulting in a defective screen image as shown in Figure 2.

因此,具有公共电压驱动电路的相关技术的液晶显示器不能适当地处理较低或较高电平的公共电压的变化,引起了图像质量的恶化。Therefore, the related art liquid crystal display having the common voltage driving circuit cannot properly handle the variation of the common voltage of lower or higher level, causing deterioration of image quality.

发明内容 Contents of the invention

因此,为了处理上述问题这里提出了如下所述的各种特征。示意性实施例的一个方面是当公共电压通过公共电压驱动电路施加到液晶面板上时,防止较高或较低的公共电压由于寄生电容或漏电流而变化。Therefore, various features as described below are proposed here in order to deal with the above-mentioned problems. An aspect of the exemplary embodiments is to prevent a higher or lower common voltage from changing due to parasitic capacitance or leakage current when the common voltage is applied to the liquid crystal panel through the common voltage driving circuit.

示意性实施例的另一方面是通过使用最小电容量的电容器防止公共电压的变化。Another aspect of the illustrative embodiments is to prevent changes in the common voltage by using capacitors of minimum capacitance.

本发明提供了一种液晶显示器的公共电压驱动电路,包括:时钟信号输出单元,由第一到第六晶体管M1到M6组成并且根据第一到第三栅输出电压VGOUT1,VGOUT2,VGOUT3中至少一栅输出电压的控制输出由外部系统输入的第一时钟信号VCLK1和第二时钟信号VCLK2;输出节点电压控制器,包括第七到第十三晶体管和第一到第四电容器,并且通过第一时钟信号VCLK1和第二时钟信号VCLK2以及第一到第三栅输出电压VGOUT1,VGOUT2,VGOUT3改变正极性输出节点Q节点和负极性输出节点Q节点的电压;初始化电压供应单元,包括第十四到第二十一晶体管M14到M21并向输出节点电压控制器提供初始化电压;以及公共电压输出单元,包括第二十二和第二十三晶体管M22,M23和第五电容器C5,并且当根据正极性输出节点和负极性输出节点的电压交替输出较高的公共电压和较低的公共电压时通过所述第五电容器C5防止正极性输出节点Q节点和负极性输出节点Q节点的电压变化。The present invention provides a common voltage drive circuit for a liquid crystal display, comprising: a clock signal output unit, composed of first to sixth transistors M1 to M6 and outputting at least one of the first to third gate voltages VGOUT1, VGOUT2, and VGOUT3 Gate output voltage control outputs the first clock signal VCLK1 and the second clock signal VCLK2 input by the external system; the output node voltage controller includes the seventh to thirteenth transistors and the first to fourth capacitors, and passes the first clock The signal VCLK1 and the second clock signal VCLK2 and the first to third gate output voltages VGOUT1, VGOUT2, VGOUT3 change the voltages of the positive polarity output node Q node and the negative polarity output node Q node; the initialization voltage supply unit includes the fourteenth to the first Twenty-one transistors M14 to M21 and provide an initialization voltage to the output node voltage controller; and a common voltage output unit including twenty-second and twenty-third transistors M22, M23 and a fifth capacitor C5, and when output according to positive polarity The fifth capacitor C5 prevents the voltage change of the positive output node Q node and the negative output node Q node when the voltages of the node and the negative output node alternately output a higher common voltage and a lower common voltage.

换句话说,在正极性输出节点(Q-节点)和负极性输出节点(Q节点)之间,第十四和第十五MOS晶体管M14和M15与第十八和第十九MOS晶体管M18和M19彼此串联连接,并且第十六和第十七MOS晶体管M16和M17与第二十和第二十一MOS晶体管M20和M21彼此串联连接.In other words, between the positive polarity output node (Q-node) and the negative polarity output node (Q-node), the fourteenth and fifteenth MOS transistors M14 and M15 and the eighteenth and nineteenth MOS transistors M18 and M19 are connected in series to each other, and the sixteenth and seventeenth MOS transistors M16 and M17 and the twentieth and twenty-first MOS transistors M20 and M21 are connected in series to each other.

在这种情况下,第十四到第十七MOS晶体管M14到M17的栅极共同地连接到输入有第一栅输出电压VGOUT1的端子,第十八和第十九MOS晶体管M18和M19的栅极和第十四MOS晶体管M14的漏极连接到正极性输出节点(Q-节点),而第二十和第二十一MOS晶体管M20和M21的栅极和第十六MOS晶体管M16的漏极连接到负极性输出节点(Q-节点)。与第十五MOS晶体管M15的源极和第十八MOS晶体管M18的漏极之间的公共连接点以及第十七MOS晶体管M17的源极和第二十MOS晶体管M20的漏极之间的公共连接点相连接的第二中间连接节点N2与电源电压端VSS连接。In this case, the gates of the fourteenth to seventeenth MOS transistors M14 to M17 are commonly connected to the terminal to which the first gate output voltage VGOUT1 is input, and the gates of the eighteenth and nineteenth MOS transistors M18 and M19 and the drain of the fourteenth MOS transistor M14 are connected to the positive polarity output node (Q-node), while the gates of the twentieth and twenty-first MOS transistors M20 and M21 and the drain of the sixteenth MOS transistor M16 Connect to the negative polarity output node (Q-node). The common connection point between the source of the fifteenth MOS transistor M15 and the drain of the eighteenth MOS transistor M18 and the common connection point between the source of the seventeenth MOS transistor M17 and the drain of the twentieth MOS transistor M20 The second intermediate connection node N2 connected to the connection point is connected to the power supply voltage terminal VSS.

在公共电压输出单元34中,正极性输出节点(Q节点)和负极性输出节点(Q节点)连接到第二十二和第二十三MOS晶体管M22和M23的栅极。第五电容器C5连接在第二十二和第二十三MOS晶体管M22和M23的栅极之间,且输入有较低的公共电压VCOML和较高的公共电压VCOMH的端部分别经由第二十二和第二十三MOS晶体管M22、M23共同地连接到公共电压输出端VCOMOUT。In the common voltage output unit 34, a positive polarity output node (Q node) and a negative polarity output node (Q node) are connected to the gates of the twenty-second and twenty-third MOS transistors M22 and M23. The fifth capacitor C5 is connected between the gates of the twenty-second and twenty-third MOS transistors M22 and M23, and the terminals of the lower common voltage VCOML and the higher common voltage VCOMH are inputted via the twenty-second The second and twenty third MOS transistors M22, M23 are commonly connected to the common voltage output terminal VCOMOUT.

即,正极性输出节点(Q节点)连接到第二十二MOS晶体管M22的栅极,并且负极性输出节点(Q节点)连接到第二十三MOS晶体管M23的栅极。在这种情况下,第五电容器C5连接在第二十二MOS晶体管M22的栅极和第二十三MOS晶体管M23的栅极之间。另外,输入有高公共电压VCOMH的端部与第二十二MOS晶体管M22的源极连接,而输入有低公共电压VCOML的端部与第二十三MOS晶体管M23的源极连接。第二十二和第二十三MOS晶体管M22和M23的漏极彼此连接以形成公共电压的输出端。That is, the positive polarity output node (Q node) is connected to the gate of the twenty-second MOS transistor M22, and the negative polarity output node (Q node) is connected to the gate of the twenty-third MOS transistor M23. In this case, the fifth capacitor C5 is connected between the gates of the twenty-second MOS transistor M22 and the twenty-third MOS transistor M23. In addition, the end to which the high common voltage VCOMH is input is connected to the source of the twenty-second MOS transistor M22, and the end to which the low common voltage VCOML is input is connected to the source of the twenty-third MOS transistor M23. Drains of the twenty-second and twenty-third MOS transistors M22 and M23 are connected to each other to form output terminals of a common voltage.

现在参考图4a和4b详细描述如上所述构造的本发明的工作原理。The working principle of the invention constructed as described above will now be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4a and 4b.

在第一帧的初始状态,10V的端电压VSS传输到串联连接的第一到第四电容器C1到C4的第一中间连接点N1上。第一中间连接节点N1共同地连接到第十和第十一MOS晶体管M10和M11的漏极之间的公共连接点并且连接到第十二和第十三MOS晶体管M12和M13的漏极之间的公共连接点。In the initial state of the first frame, the terminal voltage VSS of 10V is transmitted to the first intermediate connection point N1 of the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 connected in series. The first intermediate connection node N1 is commonly connected to a common connection point between the drains of the tenth and eleventh MOS transistors M10 and M11 and connected to between the drains of the twelfth and thirteenth MOS transistors M12 and M13 public connection point.

此状态下,如图4a中的(a)所示,在第一帧,第一栅输出电压VGOUT1以低电平(-8V)输入,因此,第十二到第十七MOS晶体管M12到M17导通。然后,第二电容器C2的两端通过第十二MOS晶体管M12连接,而第三电容器C3的两端通过第十三MOS晶体管M13连接。In this state, as shown in (a) of FIG. 4a, in the first frame, the first gate output voltage VGOUT1 is input at a low level (-8V), so the twelfth to seventeenth MOS transistors M12 to M17 conduction. Then, both ends of the second capacitor C2 are connected through the twelfth MOS transistor M12, and both ends of the third capacitor C3 are connected through the thirteenth MOS transistor M13.

这样,端电压VSS通过第十四和第十五MOS晶体管M14、M15共同传输到正极性输出节点(Q节点)和第一电容器C1的一端。此外,端电压VSS通常通过第十六和第十七MOS晶体管M16和M17传输到负极性输出节点(Q节点)和第四电容器C4的另一端。In this way, the terminal voltage VSS is commonly transmitted to the positive polarity output node (Q node) and one end of the first capacitor C1 through the fourteenth and fifteenth MOS transistors M14 and M15. In addition, the terminal voltage VSS is generally transmitted to the negative polarity output node (Q node) and the other end of the fourth capacitor C4 through the sixteenth and seventeenth MOS transistors M16 and M17.

因此,当在第一帧中第一栅输出电压VGOUT1以低电平(-8V)输入时,串联连接的第一到第四电容器C1到C4的各中间连接点和两个输出节点(Q节点)(Q节点)初始化为10V。Therefore, when the first gate output voltage VGOUT1 is input at a low level (-8V) in the first frame, the respective intermediate connection points of the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 connected in series and the two output nodes (Q nodes ) (Q node) is initialized to 10V.

随后,如图4a中(b)所示,当第二栅输出电压VGOUT2以低电平(-8V)输入时,第三MOS晶体管M3导通。因此,如图4a中(f)所示的-8V的第二时钟信号VCLK2顺序经由二极管型第一和第二MOS晶体管M1和M2以及第三MOS晶体管M3传输到正极性输出节点Q节点。Subsequently, as shown in (b) of FIG. 4a, when the second gate output voltage VGOUT2 is input at a low level (-8V), the third MOS transistor M3 is turned on. Therefore, the -8V second clock signal VCLK2 shown in (f) of FIG. 4a is sequentially transmitted to the positive polarity output node Q node via the diode-type first and second MOS transistors M1 and M2 and the third MOS transistor M3.

接下来,从正极性输出节点输出的如图4a中(h)所示的-8V的电压传输到输出端的第二十二MOS晶体管M22的栅极,从而使第二十二MOS晶体管M22导通。Next, the voltage of -8V shown in (h) in Fig. 4a output from the positive polarity output node is transmitted to the gate of the twenty-second MOS transistor M22 at the output end, so that the twenty-second MOS transistor M22 is turned on .

此时,第六MOS晶体管M6也被-8V的第二栅输出电压VGOUT2导通,并且由于第一时钟信号VCLK1为10V,第四和第五MOS晶体管M4和M5不导通,因此负极性输出节点Q节点的电压电平维持在10V,如图4a中(i)所示。At this time, the sixth MOS transistor M6 is also turned on by the second gate output voltage VGOUT2 of -8V, and since the first clock signal VCLK1 is 10V, the fourth and fifth MOS transistors M4 and M5 are not turned on, so the negative polarity output The voltage level of node Q is maintained at 10V, as shown in (i) of FIG. 4a.

随后,如图4a中(c)所示,第三栅输出电压VGOUT3以低电平(-8V)输入,并经由二极管型第七MOS晶体管M7和第八MOS晶体管M8传输到第一和第二电容器C1、C2的公共连接点。因此,第一和第二电容器C1、C2的公共连接点的电压从10V转化为-8V。于是,正极性输出节点Q节点的电压通过自举(bootstrapping)从-8V转化为-26V,如图4a中(h)所示。Subsequently, as shown in (c) of Figure 4a, the third gate output voltage VGOUT3 is input at a low level (-8V), and is transmitted to the first and second Common connection point of capacitors C1, C2. Therefore, the voltage at the common connection point of the first and second capacitors C1, C2 is converted from 10V to -8V. Then, the voltage of the positive output node Q node is converted from -8V to -26V through bootstrapping, as shown in (h) of FIG. 4a.

第二十二MOS晶体管M22被从正极性输出节点(Q节点)输出的输出电压(-26V)完全导通。The twenty-second MOS transistor M22 is fully turned on by the output voltage (-26V) output from the positive polarity output node (Q node).

这里,通过从-8V到-26V的自举升压完全导通的第二十二MOS晶体管M22执行稳定的跃迁驱动(transition driving)。即,由于快速跃迁的变化导致噪声现象出现,所以稳定的脉冲不能提供给液晶面板。Here, stable transition driving is performed by the twenty-second MOS transistor M22 fully turned on by bootstrap boost from -8V to -26V. That is, stable pulses cannot be supplied to the liquid crystal panel due to occurrence of a noise phenomenon due to rapid transition variations.

因此,图4a中(d)所示的较高的公共电压VCOMH通过第二十二MOS晶体管M22稳定地输出到公共电压输出端VCOMOUT。即,较高的公共电压VCOMH从公共电压输出端VCOMOUT输出。这里,较高的公共电压VCOMH可为,例如,5V。Therefore, the higher common voltage VCOMH shown in (d) of FIG. 4a is stably output to the common voltage output terminal VCOMOUT through the twenty-second MOS transistor M22. That is, the higher common voltage VCOMH is output from the common voltage output terminal VCOMOUT. Here, the higher common voltage VCOMH may be, for example, 5V.

这样,当较高的公共电压VCOMH通过上述过程输出时,通常,正极性输出节点Q节点处的电压无法维持在预定的初始电平,而是图1中所示,由于周围寄生电容或漏电流而逐渐增大。In this way, when the higher common voltage VCOMH is output through the above process, generally, the voltage at the positive polarity output node Q node cannot be maintained at the predetermined initial level, but as shown in FIG. 1, due to surrounding parasitic capacitance or leakage current And gradually increase.

然而,本发明中,由于连接在正极性输出节点Q节点和负极性输出节点Q节点之间的电容器(C5)的存在,正极性输出节点Q节点处的电压不受周围寄生电容或漏电流影响,因此该电压不逐渐增大。因此,该较高的公共电压VCOMH能够以稳定形式输出,如图4a所示。However, in the present invention, due to the presence of the capacitor (C5) connected between the positive polarity output node Q node and the negative polarity output node Q node, the voltage at the positive polarity output node Q node is not affected by surrounding parasitic capacitance or leakage current , so the voltage does not gradually increase. Therefore, the higher common voltage VCOMH can be output in a stable form, as shown in FIG. 4a.

当在第一帧之后开始第二帧时,第一栅输出电压VGOUT1以低电平(-8V)输入,如图4b中(a)所示,从而使第十二到第十七MOS晶体管M12到M17导通。其后,第二电容器C2的两端通过第十二MOS晶体管M12连接,第三电容器C3的两端通过第十三MOS晶体管M13连接。When the second frame starts after the first frame, the first gate output voltage VGOUT1 is input at a low level (-8V), as shown in (a) in FIG. 4b, so that the twelfth to seventeenth MOS transistors M12 to M17 conduction. Thereafter, both ends of the second capacitor C2 are connected through the twelfth MOS transistor M12, and both ends of the third capacitor C3 are connected through the thirteenth MOS transistor M13.

此时,10V的端电压VSS经过第十四和第十五MOS晶体管M14和M15共同地传输到正极性输出节点Q节点和第一电容器C1的一端。同样,端电压VSS经由第十七和第十六MOS晶体管M17和M16共同地传输到负极性输出节点Q节点和第四电容器C4的另一端。At this time, the terminal voltage VSS of 10V is commonly transmitted to the positive polarity output node Q node and one end of the first capacitor C1 through the fourteenth and fifteenth MOS transistors M14 and M15 . Likewise, the terminal voltage VSS is commonly transmitted to the negative polarity output node Q node and the other end of the fourth capacitor C4 via the seventeenth and sixteenth MOS transistors M17 and M16 .

因此,在第二帧,当第一栅输出电压VGOUT1以低电平(-8V)输入时,正极性输出节点(Q节点)处的电压从-26V转换为10V,如图4b中(h)所示,负极性输出节点(Q节点)处的电压从跟第一帧中一样维持在10V。Therefore, in the second frame, when the first gate output voltage VGOUT1 is input at a low level (-8V), the voltage at the positive polarity output node (Q node) is converted from -26V to 10V, as shown in Figure 4b (h) As shown, the voltage at the output node (Q node) of negative polarity remains at 10V as in the first frame.

其后,如图4b中(b)所示,第二栅输出电压VGOUT2以低电平(-8V)输入,从而使第三MOS晶体管M3导通。然后,如图4b中(f)所示,10V的第二时钟信号VCLK2顺序通过二极管型第一和第二MOS晶体管M1和M2以及第三MOS晶体管M3传输到正极性输出节点Q节点。这样,由于电势为10V的电压已经通过上述过程施加到正极性输出节点Q节点,正极性输出节点Q节点处的电势没有变化,如图4b中(h)所示。Thereafter, as shown in (b) of FIG. 4b, the second gate output voltage VGOUT2 is input at a low level (-8V), thereby turning on the third MOS transistor M3. Then, as shown in (f) of FIG. 4b, the 10V second clock signal VCLK2 is sequentially transmitted to the positive polarity output node Q node through the diode-type first and second MOS transistors M1 and M2 and the third MOS transistor M3. Thus, since the voltage with a potential of 10V has been applied to the positive polarity output node Q node through the above process, the potential at the positive polarity output node Q node does not change, as shown in (h) of FIG. 4b.

此时,第六MOS晶体管M6由-8V的第二栅输出电压VGOUT2导通。因此,如图4b中(g)所示,-8V的第一时钟信号VCLK1通过二极管型第四和第五MOS晶体管M4和M5以及第六MOS晶体管M6传输到负极性输出节点Q节点。因此,负极性输出节点Q节点的电势从10V转换为-8V,如图4b中(i)所示。At this time, the sixth MOS transistor M6 is turned on by the second gate output voltage VGOUT2 of -8V. Therefore, as shown in (g) of FIG. 4b, the first clock signal VCLK1 of -8V is transmitted to the negative polarity output node Q node through the diode-type fourth and fifth MOS transistors M4 and M5 and the sixth MOS transistor M6. Therefore, the potential of the negative polarity output node Q node is switched from 10V to -8V, as shown in (i) of FIG. 4b.

最后,从负极性输出节点Q节点输出的-8V的电压传输到公共电压输出单元34的第二十三MOS晶体管M23的栅极,从而使第二十三MOS晶体管M23开始导通。Finally, the voltage of -8V output from the negative polarity output node Q node is transmitted to the gate of the twenty-third MOS transistor M23 of the common voltage output unit 34, so that the twenty-third MOS transistor M23 starts to be turned on.

之后,第三栅输出电压VGOUT3以低电平(-8V)输入,如图4b中(c)所示,然后通过二极管型第七MOS晶体管M7和第九MOS晶体管M9传输到第三和第四电容器C3和C4的公共连接点。因此,第三和第四电容器C3、C4的公共连接点处的电压从10V转换为-8V。紧接着,负极性输出节点Q节点处的电压由于自举从-8V转换为-26V,如图4b中(i)所示。Afterwards, the third gate output voltage VGOUT3 is input at a low level (-8V), as shown in (c) in Figure 4b, and then transmitted to the third and fourth through the diode-type seventh MOS transistor M7 and ninth MOS transistor M9 Common connection point of capacitors C3 and C4. Therefore, the voltage at the common connection point of the third and fourth capacitors C3, C4 is switched from 10V to -8V. Immediately afterwards, the voltage at the negative polarity output node Q node is converted from -8V to -26V due to bootstrap, as shown in (i) in Figure 4b.

第二十三MOS晶体管M23由从负极性输出节点Q节点输出的-26V的输出电压完全导通。The twenty-third MOS transistor M23 is fully turned on by the output voltage of -26V output from the negative polarity output node Q node.

这里,通过从-8V到-26V的自举升压完全导通的第二十三MOS晶体管M23执行稳定的跃迁驱动(transition driving)。即,由于快速跃迁的变化导致噪声现象出现,所以稳定的脉冲不能提供给液晶面板。Here, the twenty-third MOS transistor M23 fully turned on by the bootstrap boost from -8V to -26V performs stable transition driving. That is, stable pulses cannot be supplied to the liquid crystal panel due to occurrence of a noise phenomenon due to rapid transition variations.

因此,如图4b中(e)所示,较低的公共电压VCOML通过第二十三MOS晶体管M23稳定地输出到公共电压输出端VCOMOUT。即,该0电平的较低的公共电压VCOML从公共电压输出端VCOMOUT输出。这里,例如,较低的公共电压VCOML可为0V。Therefore, as shown in (e) of FIG. 4b, the lower common voltage VCOML is stably output to the common voltage output terminal VCOMOUT through the twenty-third MOS transistor M23. That is, the lower common voltage VCOML of the 0 level is output from the common voltage output terminal VCOMOUT. Here, for example, the lower common voltage VCOML may be 0V.

这样,当通过上述过程输出较低的公共电压VCOML时,通常,负极性输出节点Q节点处的电压无法维持在预定的初始电平,而是图1中所示,由于周围寄生电容和漏电流的存在逐渐增大。Thus, when the lower common voltage VCOML is output through the above process, generally, the voltage at the negative polarity output node Q node cannot be maintained at the predetermined initial level, but as shown in FIG. 1, due to surrounding parasitic capacitance and leakage current presence gradually increased.

然而,在本发明中,由于连接在正和负极性输出节点Q节点和Q节点之间的电容器(C5)的存在,负极性输出节点Q节点处的电压不受周围寄生电容或漏电流影响,因此,该电压不逐渐增大。However, in the present invention, due to the presence of the capacitor (C5) connected between the positive and negative polarity output nodes Q node and Q node, the voltage at the negative polarity output node Q node is not affected by surrounding parasitic capacitance or leakage current, so , the voltage does not increase gradually.

因此,该较低的公共电压VCOML能够以稳定的形式输出,如图4b所示。Therefore, the lower common voltage VCOML can be output in a stable form, as shown in FIG. 4b.

同样,如果省略公共电压输出单元34中的第五电容器C5,本发明可通过增加输出节点电压控制器32中的第一到第四电容器C1到C4的电容量取代第五电容器C5的作用。Likewise, if the fifth capacitor C5 in the common voltage output unit 34 is omitted, the present invention can replace the role of the fifth capacitor C5 by increasing the capacitance of the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 in the output node voltage controller 32 .

然而,这样的话,由于第一到第四电容器C1到C4的电容量增加第五电容器C5的电容量,所以与使用第五电容器C5的情况相比,电容器的总电容量值增加一倍,因此,没有效果(ineffective)。However, in this case, since the capacitances of the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 increase the capacitance of the fifth capacitor C5, the total capacitance value of the capacitors is doubled compared with the case of using the fifth capacitor C5, and therefore , no effect (ineffective).

此外,由于输出节点电压控制器32的第一到第四电容器C1到C4占了整个电路面积的约30%,第一到第四电容器C1到C4的电容量的增加需要更多的安装空间。In addition, since the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 of the output node voltage controller 32 occupy about 30% of the entire circuit area, the increase in capacitance of the first to fourth capacitors C1 to C4 requires more installation space.

实验结果显示,当第五电容器C5的电容量超过0.1pF时,能够稳定地维持正极性输出节点Q节点和负极性输出节点Q节点的电压的初始电平。Experimental results show that when the capacitance of the fifth capacitor C5 exceeds 0.1 pF, the initial voltage levels of the positive output node Q node and the negative output node Q node can be stably maintained.

如前所示,本发明中,在经由LCD的公共电压驱动电路向液晶面板供应公共电压时,电容器安装在输出端以防止公共电压因为寄生电容或漏电流而改变。因此,稳定地驱动液晶面板,从而防止图像质量的恶化。As shown above, in the present invention, when the common voltage is supplied to the liquid crystal panel via the common voltage driving circuit of the LCD, a capacitor is installed at the output terminal to prevent the common voltage from changing due to parasitic capacitance or leakage current. Therefore, the liquid crystal panel is stably driven, thereby preventing deterioration of image quality.

同样,在公共电压输出单元安装电容器比在输出节点电压控制器中安装电容器更有效,从而利用小电容量的电容器稳定公共电压。Also, installing capacitors in the common voltage output unit is more effective than installing capacitors in the output node voltage controller, thereby stabilizing the common voltage with capacitors of small capacitance.
