液晶显示装置及其驱动方法 Liquid crystal display device and driving method thereof

技术领域technical field

本发明有关于一种液晶显示装置及其驱动方法,尤指一种可调整参考电压的液晶显示装置及其驱动方法。The invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof, in particular to a liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof with an adjustable reference voltage.

背景技术Background technique

液晶显示装置(Liquid Crystal Display;LCD)是目前广泛使用的一种平面显示器,其具有外型轻薄、省电以及无辐射等优点。液晶显示装置的工作原理是利用改变液晶层两端的电压差来改变液晶层内的液晶分子的排列状态,用以改变液晶层的透光性,再配合背光模块或环境光所提供的光源以显示图像。图1为已知液晶显示装置的示意图。如图1所示,液晶显示装置100包含参考电压产生器110、时序控制器(Timing Controller)140、电压电平移位器150、源极驱动电路160、栅极驱动电路170以及像素阵列单元180。参考电压产生器110用来提供高参考电压Vgh与低参考电压Vgl。时序控制器140用来提供栅极驱动电路170运作所需的扫描控制信号Sx。A liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display; LCD) is a flat panel display widely used at present, which has the advantages of light and thin appearance, power saving and no radiation. The working principle of the liquid crystal display device is to change the alignment state of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer by changing the voltage difference between the two ends of the liquid crystal layer to change the light transmittance of the liquid crystal layer, and then cooperate with the light source provided by the backlight module or ambient light to display image. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a known liquid crystal display device. As shown in FIG. 1 , the liquid crystal display device 100 includes a reference voltage generator 110 , a timing controller (Timing Controller) 140 , a voltage level shifter 150 , a source driving circuit 160 , a gate driving circuit 170 and a pixel array unit 180 . The reference voltage generator 110 is used to provide a high reference voltage Vgh and a low reference voltage Vgl. The timing controller 140 is used to provide the scan control signal Sx required for the operation of the gate driving circuit 170 .

电压电平移位器150用来根据扫描控制信号Sx、高参考电压Vgh与低参考电压Vgl以产生前置驱动信号Si馈入至栅极驱动电路170。栅极驱动电路170根据前置驱动信号Si以提供多个栅极信号。源极驱动电路160用来提供多个数据信号,而像素阵列单元180即根据多个栅极信号与多个数据信号以驱动多个像素PX,据以显示图像。在液晶显示装置100的设计中,为了降低制造成本,将栅极驱动电路170集成于包含像素阵列单元180的显示面板185,亦即基于GOA(Gate-driver On Array)架构,已逐渐发展为主流技术。然而在GOA架构中,栅极驱动电路170的多级移位寄存器SR1~SRn是对应于多条栅极线175而依序设置于显示面板185的相当狭长的边框区域,亦即并非积集于很小的芯片面积内。所以,最后一级移位寄存器SRn所产生的栅极信号的高电平电压可能显著低于第一级移位寄存器SR1所产生的栅极信号的高电平电压,如此则最后一级移位寄存器SRn所产生的栅极信号可能无法有效驱动相对应的多个像素PX以正常执行数据信号写入运作。一般而言,最后数级移位寄存器所产生的栅极信号均可能发生高电平电压太低状况。此外,于液晶显示装置100刚开机时,上述栅极信号的高电平电压太低状况会较为严重。另由于薄膜晶体管的开启速度会因温度降低而变慢,所以当液晶显示装置100在低温下开机时,上述栅极信号的高电平电压太低状况又更加严重。换句话说,像素阵列单元180可能无法在液晶显示装置100低温开机时立即正常运作。The voltage level shifter 150 is used to generate the pre-drive signal Si according to the scan control signal Sx, the high reference voltage Vgh and the low reference voltage Vgl to feed to the gate driving circuit 170 . The gate driving circuit 170 provides a plurality of gate signals according to the pre-driving signal Si. The source driving circuit 160 is used to provide a plurality of data signals, and the pixel array unit 180 drives a plurality of pixels PX according to the plurality of gate signals and the plurality of data signals to display images. In the design of the liquid crystal display device 100, in order to reduce the manufacturing cost, the gate driver circuit 170 is integrated into the display panel 185 including the pixel array unit 180, which is based on the GOA (Gate-driver On Array) architecture, which has gradually developed into the mainstream. technology. However, in the GOA structure, the multi-stage shift registers SR1˜SRn of the gate driving circuit 170 are sequentially arranged in a relatively long and narrow frame area of the display panel 185 corresponding to the plurality of gate lines 175, that is, they are not accumulated in the within a small chip area. Therefore, the high-level voltage of the gate signal generated by the last-stage shift register SRn may be significantly lower than the high-level voltage of the gate signal generated by the first-stage shift register SR1, so that the last-stage shift The gate signal generated by the register SRn may not be able to effectively drive the corresponding plurality of pixels PX to perform the data signal writing operation normally. Generally speaking, the gate signal generated by the shift register of the last number of stages may have a high-level voltage that is too low. In addition, when the liquid crystal display device 100 is just turned on, the above-mentioned high-level voltage of the gate signal is too low. In addition, since the turn-on speed of the thin film transistor will be slowed down due to the temperature drop, when the liquid crystal display device 100 is turned on at a low temperature, the above-mentioned high-level voltage of the gate signal is too low and the situation is even more serious. In other words, the pixel array unit 180 may not be able to work normally immediately when the liquid crystal display device 100 is turned on at a low temperature.

The voltage level shifter 250 is electrically connected to the timing controller 240 , the voltage selector 220 and the reference voltage generator 210 for generating the pre-drive signal Si according to the scan control signal Sx, the high reference voltage Vgh and the low reference voltage Vgl.

The pixel array unit 280 is used to control the writing operation of multiple data signals according to multiple gate signals, so as to drive multiple pixels PX to display images.

在图2所示的实施例中,电压选择器220包含第一开关221与第二开关222,控制单元230包含定时器231。第一开关221电连接于控制单元230、参考电压产生器210与电压电平移位器250,用来根据控制信号Sc将第一高参考电压Vgh1输出为高参考电压Vgh。第二开关222电连接于控制单元230、参考电压产生器210与电压电平移位器250,用来根据控制信号Sc将第二高参考电压Vgh2输出为高参考电压Vgh。在液晶显示装置200的运作中,当控制信号Sc为第一状态时,第二开关222为截止状态,而第一开关221为导通状态,用来将第一高参考电压Vgh1输出为高参考电压Vgh。或者,当控制信号Sc为第二状态时,第一开关221为截止状态,而第二开关222为导通状态,用来将第二高参考电压Vgh2输出为高参考电压Vgh。定时器231用来于液晶显示装置200开机后,自动执行计时运作以产生计时信号,而控制单元230即根据计时信号以提供控制信号Sc。In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 , the voltage selector 220 includes a first switch 221 and a second switch 222 , and the control unit 230 includes a timer 231 . The first switch 221 is electrically connected to the control unit 230 , the reference voltage generator 210 and the voltage level shifter 250 for outputting the first high reference voltage Vgh1 as the high reference voltage Vgh according to the control signal Sc. The second switch 222 is electrically connected to the control unit 230 , the reference voltage generator 210 and the voltage level shifter 250 for outputting the second high reference voltage Vgh2 as the high reference voltage Vgh according to the control signal Sc. In the operation of the liquid crystal display device 200, when the control signal Sc is in the first state, the second switch 222 is in the off state, and the first switch 221 is in the on state, which is used to output the first high reference voltage Vgh1 as a high reference Voltage Vgh. Alternatively, when the control signal Sc is in the second state, the first switch 221 is in the off state, and the second switch 222 is in the on state for outputting the second high reference voltage Vgh2 as the high reference voltage Vgh. The timer 231 is used to automatically perform a timing operation to generate a timing signal after the liquid crystal display device 200 is turned on, and the control unit 230 provides a control signal Sc according to the timing signal.

That is, when the liquid crystal display device 200 is turned on, the voltage selector 220 first selects the first high reference voltage Vgh1 as the high reference voltage Vgh, so that the pixel array unit 280 can operate normally in real time to display high-quality images. , the voltage selector 220 selects the second high reference voltage Vgh2 as the high reference voltage Vgh to save power consumption. In addition, by setting the first high reference voltage Vgh1 suitable for a low-temperature environment, when the liquid crystal display device 200 is turned on at low temperature, the pixel array unit 280 can still operate normally immediately to display high-quality images.

The timing controller 340 includes a frame counter 341 electrically connected to the control unit 330. The frame counter 341 is used to automatically perform frame counting after the liquid crystal display device 300 is turned on Operate to generate the count signal Sn. The control unit 330 then provides the control signal Sc to the voltage selector 220 according to the count signal Sn.
