技术领域technical field
本发明是有关于一种平面显示装置,尤指一种具动态调整机制的平面显示装置与其图像显示方法。The invention relates to a flat display device, especially a flat display device with a dynamic adjustment mechanism and an image display method thereof.
背景技术Background technique
平面显示装置(Flat Panel Display)具有外型轻薄、省电以及无辐射等优点,所以被广泛地应用于电脑屏幕、移动电话、个人数字助理(PDA)、平面电视等电子产品上。在各种平面显示装置中,液晶显示装置以其较低的功率消耗而被广泛使用。传统液晶显示装置是使用基于RGB像素的三色显示技术来显示色彩,然而画面亮度并不理想,为提高画面亮度,就发展出基于具白色像素的RGBW像素的四色显示技术。但当液晶显示装置由三色显示技术变更为四色显示技术后,RGB像素的面积会缩小,导致液晶显示装置在显示纯色或接近纯色的色彩时,无法显示其应有的亮度与彩度。换句话说,加入白色像素会降低纯色或接近纯色的色彩亮度与彩度,因而难以保有高图像重现度。Flat Panel Display has the advantages of light and thin appearance, power saving, and no radiation, so it is widely used in electronic products such as computer screens, mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and flat-screen TVs. Among various flat panel display devices, liquid crystal display devices are widely used due to their lower power consumption. Traditional liquid crystal display devices display colors using three-color display technology based on RGB pixels. However, the brightness of the screen is not ideal. In order to improve the brightness of the screen, a four-color display technology based on RGBW pixels with white pixels has been developed. However, when the liquid crystal display device is changed from the three-color display technology to the four-color display technology, the area of the RGB pixels will be reduced, so that the liquid crystal display device cannot display its proper brightness and chroma when displaying a pure color or a color close to a pure color. In other words, adding white pixels will reduce the brightness and saturation of pure or near-pure colors, making it difficult to maintain high image reproduction.

四色转换单元110电连接于动态背光控制单元120与源极驱动器170,用来将三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi转换为具有白色图像信号的四色图像信号。四色转换单元110包含前置转换对照表111,前置转换对照表111是用来提供对应于三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi的第一组四色图像信号,亦即前置转换对照表111提供三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi与第一组四色图像信号的对照关系。四色转换单元110另将对应于三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi转换为第一组四色图像信号的多个转换放大因数Ssca输出至动态背光控制单元120。在一实施例中,每一组三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi是依据其属于纯色或接近纯色及/或配合其亮度而决定相对应的转换放大因数Ssca,譬如若一组三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi是用以显示三原色的蓝色,亦即信号Ri与Gi的值为零,则相对应的转换放大因数Ssca可设为零。The four-
动态背光控制单元120包含放大因数分析单元121与背光调整对照表123。放大因数分析单元121是用来对每一画面的多个组三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi所对映的多个转换放大因数Ssca执行分析处理以产生分析值Sana。在一实施例中,放大因数分析单元121是用来对每一画面的多个组三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi所对映的多个转换放大因数Ssca进行统计处理,据以提供对应于每一转换放大因数Ssca的计数值,再将多个计数值依转换放大因数Ssca的递增顺序而依次累加为一累计值,直到此累计值约为一预设值时,撷取对应于被累加计数值的最大转换放大因数Ssca,若此最大转换放大因数Ssca愈小,则表示背光模块140的背光输出需要调整的愈亮。请注意,该预设值可为画面像素总数的预设百分比的数目,譬如该预设值可为画面像素总数的20%的数目。The dynamic
背光调整对照表123是用来提供对应于分析值Sana的背光调整信号Sadj,亦即用来提供分析值Sana与背光调整信号Sadj的对照关系。换句话说,动态背光控制单元120是用来根据放大因数分析单元121对多个转换放大因数Ssca的分析结果以提供相对应的背光调整信号Sadj。动态背光控制单元120另根据背光调整信号Sadj产生转换修正信号Scorr馈入至四色转换单元110,而四色转换单元110即可根据转换修正信号Scorr与前置转换对照表111产生修正转换对照表,据以提供对应于三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi的第二组四色图像信号R′,G′,B′,W′至源极驱动器170,源极驱动器170进而根据第二组四色图像信号R′,G′,B′,W′以产生多个数据信号SD1~SDm。背光驱动单元130,电连接于动态背光控制单元120与背光模块140之间,用来根据背光调整信号Sadj产生脉波宽度调变信号Spwm以驱动背光模块140产生所需的背光输出。背光驱动单元130包含工作周期调整单元135,而脉波宽度调变信号Spwm的工作周期是由工作周期调整单元135根据背光调整信号Sadj执行调整运作。The backlight adjustment comparison table 123 is used to provide the backlight adjustment signal Sadj corresponding to the analysis value Sana, that is, to provide a comparison relationship between the analysis value Sana and the backlight adjustment signal Sadj. In other words, the dynamic
在一实施例中,若在待显示画面的多个图像信号中,属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号数量越大,亦即多个转换放大因数Ssca小于预设临界值的数量越大,则由背光调整对照表123所提供的背光调整信号Sadj也越大,据以提高背光模块140的背光输出,并根据背光调整信号Sadj以调整非属纯色或非接近纯色的图像信号,及/或调整属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号。在另一实施例中,背光调整信号Sadj是约略正比于属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号数量,而背光输出的调高量则约略正比于背光调整信号Sadj。此外,转换修正信号Scorr亦约略正比于背光调整信号Sadj,所以非属纯色或非接近纯色的图像信号的信号调低量是约略正比于背光输出的调高量。In one embodiment, if among the multiple image signals of the image to be displayed, the larger the number of image signals belonging to pure color or close to pure color, that is, the larger the number of multiple conversion amplification factors Ssca is smaller than the preset critical value, then by The backlight adjustment signal Sadj provided by the backlight adjustment comparison table 123 is also larger, so as to increase the backlight output of the
由上述可知,平面显示装置100是根据多个图像输入信号的属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号数量以调高背光输出,并根据背光输出的调高量以调降非属纯色或非接近纯色的图像信号的信号值,用来使基于四色图像信号所显示的图像仍保有高图像重现度。From the above, it can be seen that the flat
图2为本发明第二实施例的平面显示装置200的结构示意图。如图2所示,平面显示装置200的结构是类似于图1所示的平面显示装置100,主要差异在于将四色转换单元110置换为四色转换单元210。四色转换单元210包含前置转换对照表211与多个输入转换对照表215_1~215_N,其中前置转换对照表211的功能同于图1所示的前置转换对照表111,所以不再赘述。当四色转换单元210接收由动态背光控制单元120所馈入的转换修正信号Scorr后,四色转换单元210会根据转换修正信号Scorr从多个输入转换对照表215_1~215_N中选择相对应的输入转换对照表,据以提供对应于三色图像输入信号Ri,Gi,Bi的第二组四色图像信号R′,G′,B′,W′。相较于四色转换单元110,四色转换单元210并不需用来根据转换修正信号Scorr与前置转换对照表111执行相关计算处理以产生前述的修正转换对照表,所以可提高信号处理速度。FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a flat

在一实施例中,若在待显示画面的多个图像信号中,属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号数量越大,亦即多个转换放大因数Ssca小于预设临界值的数量越大,则由背光调整对照表323所提供的背光调整信号Sadj也越大,据以提高背光模块340的背光输出,并根据背光调整信号Sadj以补偿非属纯色或非接近纯色的图像信号,及/或补偿属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号。在另一实施例中,背光调整信号Sadj是约略正比于属于纯色或接近纯色的图像信号数量,而背光输出的调高量则约略正比于背光调整信号Sadj。此外,转换修正信号Scorr亦约略正比于背光调整信号Sadj,所以非属纯色或非接近纯色的图像信号的信号补偿量是约略正比于背光输出的调高量。In one embodiment, if among the multiple image signals of the image to be displayed, the larger the number of image signals belonging to pure color or close to pure color, that is, the larger the number of multiple conversion amplification factors Ssca is smaller than the preset critical value, then by The backlight adjustment signal Sadj provided by the backlight adjustment comparison table 323 is also larger, so as to increase the backlight output of the backlight module 340, and adjust the signal Sadj according to the backlight to compensate for the image signal that is not a pure color or not close to a pure color, and/or compensates for an image signal belonging to An image signal of pure color or near pure color. In another embodiment, the backlight adjustment signal Sadj is approximately proportional to the amount of the image signal belonging to the pure color or close to the pure color, and the adjustment amount of the backlight output is approximately proportional to the backlight adjustment signal Sadj. In addition, the conversion correction signal Scorr is approximately proportional to the backlight adjustment signal Sadj, so the signal compensation amount of the image signal that is not a pure color or not close to a pure color is approximately proportional to the adjustment amount of the backlight output.
