技术领域technical field

背景技术Background technique
有源式矩阵显示装置通常包括基板及设置在基板上的栅极驱动器、源极驱动器以及多个像素。其中,栅极驱动器用以产生驱动信号,并通过栅极扇出线(Gate Fan out Line)将驱动信号提供给多条栅极线以决定是否开启与这些栅极线相电性耦接的像素。源极驱动器用以通过设置于基板上的多条数据线向这些像素提供显示数据,进而达成显示画面的目的。An active matrix display device generally includes a substrate, a gate driver, a source driver and a plurality of pixels disposed on the substrate. Wherein, the gate driver is used to generate a driving signal, and provide the driving signal to a plurality of gate lines through a gate fan-out line to determine whether to turn on the pixels electrically coupled to these gate lines. The source driver is used to provide display data to these pixels through a plurality of data lines arranged on the substrate, so as to achieve the purpose of displaying images.
于有源式阵列显示装置中,因为源极驱动器的成本相对较高,所以现有技术提出一种具有半源极驱动(Half-Source Driving,HSD)架构的显示装置,其采用两个像素串联的方式将显示装置的数据线数目减半而减少源极驱动器数目或集成电路(Integrated Circuit)面积,以达成一定程度上降低成本的目的。In an active matrix display device, because the cost of the source driver is relatively high, the prior art proposes a display device with a half-source driving (Half-Source Driving, HSD) architecture, which uses two pixels connected in series In this way, the number of data lines of the display device is halved to reduce the number of source drivers or the area of an integrated circuit (Integrated Circuit), so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the cost to a certain extent.
然而,前述的具有半源极驱动架构的显示装置以两个像素为周期,由于三原色像素RGB排列是以三个像素为周期,因此不容易针对单一颜色做伽玛曲线(Gamma Curve)的调整,必须搭配交错驱动数据线的左右像素的特别驱动手段,否则容易造成颜色上的不均(例如,直线条纹)而使显示效果不佳。However, the above-mentioned display device with a half-source drive architecture uses two pixels as a cycle, and since the three primary color pixels RGB are arranged in a cycle of three pixels, it is not easy to adjust the gamma curve (Gamma Curve) for a single color. A special driving means for driving the left and right pixels of the data line alternately must be used, otherwise color unevenness (for example, straight line stripes) will easily be caused and the display effect will be poor.

Furthermore, the aforementioned embodiments of the present invention can also achieve better display effects. For example, when the display device uses three pixels as a cycle, since the three primary color pixels RGB are also arranged with three pixels as a cycle, there is no need to use interleaved driving data lines The driving method of the left and right pixels (hereinafter referred to as the ZigZag driving method) can also complete the display driving, and it is easy to adjust the gamma curve for a single color. What's more, since the number of data lines can be saved by 2/3 or more, all gate fan-out lines can be placed in the display area, and the border outside the display area can be completely free of gate fan-out lines. It can be designed with a narrow frame, and at the same time, there will be no problem of uneven brightness caused by the fact that the gate fan-out lines cannot be completely placed in the display area.

另外,参见图4,本发明实施例提出的显示装置10的多个像素R、G、B并不限于前述的呈直条状排列,其也可呈如图4所示的马赛克排列。如图4所示,三个串联相接的像素P11、P12及P13显示两种不同的颜色,例如红色(R)及蓝色(B)。这些像素P11、P12及P13分别排列于不同的列中,这些列大致沿着数据线DLn的延伸方向延伸。在此,虽然数据线DLn具有弯折部分,然其延伸方向仍大致为图4中的垂直方向。In addition, referring to FIG. 4 , the plurality of pixels R, G, and B of the
进一步地,显示装置10的像素排列方式还可采用其他设计,例如图5所示,显示装置10的多个像素R、G、B呈直条状排列;这些像素R、G、B中的串联相接的三个像素P21、P22及P23排列于两列中,这两列大致都沿着数据线DLn的延伸方向,也即图5中的垂直方向延伸。像素P21、P22及P23显示两种不同的颜色,例如红色(R)及绿色(G)。又或者如图6所示,显示装置10的多个像素R、G、B呈直条状排列;这些像素R、G、B中的串联相接的三个像素P31、P32及P33排列于两列中,这些列大致沿着数据线DLn的延伸方向,也即图6中的垂直方向延伸。像素P31、P32及P33显示两种不同的颜色,例如红色及绿色;并且像素P33的像素晶体管31与像素电极33分设于栅极线GLm的两侧。Further, other designs can also be adopted for the pixel arrangement of the
参见图7,其示出相关于本发明实施例的多条栅极线、多条栅极扇出线及多条数据线的相对位置关系。如图7所示,设置于显示装置10的基板12上的多条数据线DLn、DLn+1、DLn+2与栅极线GLm、GLm+1、GLm+2、GLm+3交叉设置,且这些数据线DLn、DLn+1、DLn+2的每两相邻者之间设置有二栅极扇出线。更具体地,数据线DLn与数据线DLn+1之间设置有二栅极扇出线GFLq及GFLq+1,且栅极扇出线GFLq及GFLq+1分别与栅极线GLm及GLm+1相电性耦接,用以向栅极线GLm及GLm+1提供驱动信号;数据线DLn+1与数据线DLn+2之间设置有二栅极扇出线GFLq+2及GFLq+3,且栅极扇出线GFLq+2及GFLq+3分别与栅极线GLm+2及GLm+3相电性耦接,用以向栅极线GLm+2及GLm+3提供驱动信号。Referring to FIG. 7 , it shows the relative positional relationship of multiple gate lines, multiple gate fan-out lines and multiple data lines related to the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 7 , a plurality of data lines DLn, DLn+1, DLn+2 disposed on the
需要说明的是,图7所示的显示装置10的多条数据线并不限于每两相邻者之间设置有二栅极扇出线,也可根据实际需要,仅于部分数据线的每两相邻者之间设置一条或多条栅极扇出线。It should be noted that the multiple data lines of the
另外,本发明实施例提出的显示装置10并不限于采用前述的RGB三原色像素,也可采用四原色像素或更多原色像素,则对应地可采用四个及以上像素串联相接的像素排列方式。相应地,于显示装置的至少部分的数据线的每两相邻者之间可设置三条及以上栅极扇出线。In addition, the
综上所述,本发明前述实施例通过采用至少三个像素串联相接,可使显示装置节省2/3及以上的数据线数目,使得显示装置的成本可得到进一步地降低。再者,本发明前述实施例还可达成较佳的显示效果,例如当显示装置采用三个像素为周期时,由于三原色像素RGB排列也以三个像素为周期,容易针对单一颜色调整伽玛曲线。更甚者,由于可以节省2/3及以上的数据线数目,因此可让所有栅极扇出线全部放入显示区(例如图7中的虚线框所示),可使得显示区之外的边框(Border)完全没有栅极扇出线,因此可做窄边框设计,同时也不会有因为栅极扇出线无法全部放入显示区而造成的亮度不均的问题存在。To sum up, the aforementioned embodiments of the present invention can save 2/3 or more of the number of data lines in the display device by using at least three pixels connected in series, so that the cost of the display device can be further reduced. Furthermore, the aforementioned embodiments of the present invention can also achieve better display effects. For example, when the display device uses three pixels as a cycle, since the three primary color pixels RGB are also arranged with three pixels as a cycle, it is easy to adjust the gamma curve for a single color . What's more, since 2/3 or more of the number of data lines can be saved, all gate fan-out lines can be placed in the display area (such as shown in the dotted line box in Figure 7), which can make the frame outside the display area (Border) has no grid fan-out lines at all, so it can be designed with narrow borders, and there will be no problem of uneven brightness caused by the grid fan-out lines not being able to fit all into the display area.
另外,本领域普通技术人员还可对本发明前述实施例提出的显示装置及显示驱动方法做适当变更,例如适当变更像素排列方式、将各像素晶体管的源极与漏极的电连接关系互换等等。In addition, those skilled in the art can also make appropriate changes to the display device and display driving method proposed in the foregoing embodiments of the present invention, such as appropriately changing the pixel arrangement, exchanging the electrical connection relationship between the source and drain of each pixel transistor, etc. wait.
虽然本发明已以较佳实施例揭示如上,然其并非用以限定本发明,任何本领域普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,当可作些许的更动与润饰,因此本发明的保护范围当视所附的权利要求所界定的范围为准。Although the present invention has been disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art may make some changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore The scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined by the appended claims.
