As shown in FIG. 1, the source driving circuit includes a shift register 6, a first register (Latch) 11, a second register 12, a third register 13, a fourth register 14, and a first Level shifter 21 (Level Shifter), second level shifter 22, first digital to analog converter (DAC) 31, second digital to analog converter 32, first output buffer 41 (Output Buffer) And a second output buffer 42. Specifically, the first signal D1 is input to the first register 11 and the second signal D2 is input to the second register 12. The shift register 6 is electrically connected to the first register 11 and the second register 12, respectively for sequentially strobing the first register 11 and the second register 12 to sequentially turn the first signal D1 and the first The two signals D2 are correspondingly transmitted to the first channel 51 and the second channel 52.
第一暂存器11分别与第三暂存器13和第四暂存器14电连接,第二暂存器12分别与第三暂存器13和第四暂存器14电连接。第三暂存器13依次通过第一电平转换器21和第一数模转换器31与第一输出缓冲器41电连接,第四暂存器14依次通过第二电平转换器22和第二数模转换器31与第二输出缓冲器42电连接。第一输出缓冲器41分别与第一通道51的输出端和第二通道52的输出端电连接,第二输出缓冲器42分别与第一通道51的输出端和第二通道52的输出端电连接。The first register 11 is electrically connected to the third register 13 and the fourth register 14, respectively, and the second register 12 is electrically connected to the third register 13 and the fourth register 14, respectively. The third register 13 is sequentially electrically connected to the first output buffer 41 through the first level shifter 21 and the first digital-to-analog converter 31, and the fourth register 14 sequentially passes through the second level shifter 22 and the The second to digital converter 31 is electrically connected to the second output buffer 42. The first output buffer 41 is electrically connected to the output of the first channel 51 and the output of the second channel 52, respectively, and the second output buffer 42 is electrically coupled to the output of the first channel 51 and the output of the second channel 52, respectively. connection.
图2示出了图1所示的源极驱动电路的输入信号的时序图,下面结合图2,说明现有技术中源极驱动电路的工作原理:当需要第一通道51输出正极性的源极控制信号时,正极性的第一信号D1依次通过第一暂存器11和第三暂存器13输入至第一电平转换器21,经第一电平转换器21的电压抬升作用后输入至第一数模转换器31,第一数模转换器31 作为一个电压选择功能块,根据第一电平转换器21的输出电压选择所需的正极性的模拟电压(对应灰阶电压),然后正极性的模拟电压经第一输出缓冲器41放大后从第一通道51输出,从而使第一通道51输出正极性的源极控制信号。2 is a timing chart showing the input signal of the source driving circuit shown in FIG. 1. The working principle of the source driving circuit in the prior art is described below with reference to FIG. 2: when the first channel 51 is required to output the source of the positive polarity. In the case of the pole control signal, the positive first signal D1 is sequentially input to the first level shifter 21 through the first register 11 and the third register 13, after the voltage of the first level shifter 21 is raised. Input to the first digital to analog converter 31, the first digital to analog converter 31 As a voltage selection function block, the required positive polarity analog voltage (corresponding to the gray scale voltage) is selected according to the output voltage of the first level shifter 21, and then the positive polarity analog voltage is amplified by the first output buffer 41. The first channel 51 is output such that the first channel 51 outputs a positive source control signal.
当需要第一通道51输出负极性的源极控制信号时,正极性的第一信号D1依次通过第一暂存器11和第四暂存器14输入至第二电平转换器22,经第二电平转换器22的电压抬升作用后输入至第二数模转换器32,第二数模转换器32作为一个电压选择功能块,根据第二电平转换器22的输出电压选择所需的负极性的模拟电压(对应灰阶电压),然后负极性的模拟电压经第二输出缓冲器42放大后从第一通道51输出,从而使第一通道51输出负极性的源极控制信号。When the first channel 51 is required to output a negative source control signal, the positive first signal D1 is sequentially input to the second level shifter 22 through the first register 11 and the fourth register 14 through the first channel The voltage boosting of the two-level converter 22 is input to the second digital-to-analog converter 32, and the second digital-to-analog converter 32 functions as a voltage selection function block, and selects the required voltage according to the output voltage of the second level shifter 22. The negative polarity analog voltage (corresponding to the gray scale voltage) is then amplified by the second output buffer 42 and output from the first channel 51, so that the first channel 51 outputs a negative source control signal.
由上述可知:对于现有技术的源极驱动电路而言,每两个相邻的通道(例如第一通道51和第二通道52)需相对应地设置两个数模转换器(第一数模转换器31和第二数模转换器32),以满足源极驱动电路的实际动作需求。然而,由于数模转换器的体积较大,所有数模转换器的面积之和约占整个源极驱动电路总面积的60%,因此这将导致用于承载源极驱动电路的芯片的体积无法进一步缩减;另外,随着显示分辨率的增加,显示数据通道必将增多,从而很难在固定的芯片面积上完成更高的解析度。It can be seen from the above that for the prior art source driving circuit, two adjacent digital channels (for example, the first channel 51 and the second channel 52) need to be correspondingly provided with two digital-to-analog converters (the first number) The analog converter 31 and the second digital to analog converter 32) meet the actual operational requirements of the source drive circuit. However, due to the large size of the digital-to-analog converter, the sum of the areas of all the digital-to-analog converters accounts for about 60% of the total area of the entire source drive circuit, so this will result in a volume of the chip for carrying the source drive circuit. Further reduction; in addition, as the display resolution increases, the display data channel is bound to increase, making it difficult to achieve higher resolution on a fixed chip area.

本发明要解决的技术问题是:现有技术中的源极驱动电路的每两个相邻的通道需相对应地设置两个数模转换器,导致用于承载源极驱动电路的芯片的体积无法进一步缩减,并且很难在固定的芯片面积上完成更高的解析度。为解决上述技术问题,本发明实施例提供了一种液晶显示面板的源极驱动电路。The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that two adjacent digital channels of the source driving circuit in the prior art need to be correspondingly provided with two digital-to-analog converters, resulting in the volume of the chip for carrying the source driving circuit. No further reductions, and it is difficult to achieve higher resolution on a fixed chip area. To solve the above technical problem, an embodiment of the present invention provides a source driving circuit of a liquid crystal display panel.
图3示出了本发明实施例液晶显示面板的源极驱动电路的一种示意图。如图3所示,源极驱动电路包括第一通道51、第二通道52、第三通道53、第四通道54、移位寄存器6、第一倍频器71、第二倍频器72、第三倍频器73、第四倍频器74、通道选择模块1、第一数模转换器31、第二数模转换器32和输出缓冲模块4。FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a source driving circuit of a liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the source driving circuit includes a first channel 51, a second channel 52, a third channel 53, a fourth channel 54, a shift register 6, a first frequency multiplier 71, a second frequency multiplier 72, The third frequency multiplier 73, the fourth frequency multiplier 74, the channel selection module 1, the first digital to analog converter 31, the second digital to analog converter 32, and the output buffer module 4.
具体地,第一通道51和第二通道52相邻设置,第三通道53与第四通道54相邻设置。在本发明一优选的实施例中,第二通道52与第三通道53相邻设置,即第一通道51、第二通道52、第三通道53和第四通道54顺次设置;或者第四通道54与第一通道51相邻设置,即第三通道53、第四通道54、第一通道51和第二通道52顺次设置。Specifically, the first passage 51 and the second passage 52 are disposed adjacent to each other, and the third passage 53 is disposed adjacent to the fourth passage 54. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the second passage 52 is disposed adjacent to the third passage 53, that is, the first passage 51, the second passage 52, the third passage 53 and the fourth passage 54 are sequentially disposed; or the fourth The passage 54 is disposed adjacent to the first passage 51, that is, the third passage 53, the fourth passage 54, the first passage 51, and the second passage 52 are sequentially disposed.
倍频器是使输出信号频率等于输入信号频率整数倍的电路,在本实施例中,第一倍频器71、第二倍频器72、第三倍频器73和第四倍频器74分别一一对应地使第一信号D1、第二信号D2、第三信号D3和第四信号D4的频率增加一倍。例如,如果第一信号D1的频率为60Hz,则经第一倍频器71倍频后的第一信号D1的频率提升至120Hz。输入至第一通道51的第一信号D1(一般为数字信号)经第一倍频器71倍频后输入至通道选择模块1,输入至第二通道52的第二信号D2经第二倍频器72倍频后输入至通道选择模块1,输入至第三通道53的第三信号D3经第三倍频器73的倍频后输入至通道选择模块1,输入至第四通道54的第四信号D4经第四倍频器74倍频后输入至通道选择模块1。由通道选择模块1将倍频后的各个信号分配给第一数模转换器31和第二数模转换器32。The frequency multiplier is a circuit that makes the output signal frequency equal to an integral multiple of the input signal frequency. In the present embodiment, the first frequency multiplier 71, the second frequency multiplier 72, the third frequency multiplier 73, and the fourth frequency multiplier 74 are provided. The frequencies of the first signal D1, the second signal D2, the third signal D3, and the fourth signal D4 are doubled in a one-to-one correspondence, respectively. For example, if the frequency of the first signal D1 is 60 Hz, the frequency of the first signal D1 multiplied by the first frequency multiplier 71 is raised to 120 Hz. The first signal D1 (generally a digital signal) input to the first channel 51 is multiplied by the first frequency multiplier 71 and input to the channel selection module 1, and the second signal D2 input to the second channel 52 is subjected to the second frequency multiplication. The device 72 is multiplied and input to the channel selection module 1. The third signal D3 input to the third channel 53 is input to the channel selection module 1 by the multiplication of the third frequency multiplier 73, and is input to the fourth channel 54. The signal D4 is multiplied by the fourth frequency multiplier 74 and input to the channel selection module 1. The multiplied signals are assigned to the first digital-to-analog converter 31 and the second digital-to-analog converter 32 by the channel selection module 1.
移位寄存器6是控制各个信号输入给第一数模转换器31和第二数模转换器32的时序 的电路。具体地,程序寄存器设置为使经第一倍频器71倍频的第一信号D1和经第二倍频器72倍频的第二信号D2在预设的第一时段输入至通道选择模块1,在第一时段内禁止将经第三倍频器73倍频的第三信号D3和经第四倍频器74倍频的第四信号D4输入至通道选择模块1。程序寄存器还设置为使经第三倍频器73倍频的第三信号D3和经第四倍频器74倍频的第四信号D4在预设的第二时段输入至通道选择模块1,在第二时段内禁止将使经第一倍频器71倍频的第一信号D1和经第二倍频器72倍频的第二信号D2输入至通道选择模块1。这里需要指出的是,预设的第一时段和预设的第二时段的交集为空集,以避免第一信号D1、第二信号D2、第三信号D3和第四信号D4彼此干扰。特别地,移位寄存器6优选为双向移位寄存器。The shift register 6 is a timing for controlling the input of each signal to the first digital-to-analog converter 31 and the second digital-to-analog converter 32. Circuit. Specifically, the program register is set to input the first signal D1 multiplied by the first frequency multiplier 71 and the second signal D2 multiplied by the second frequency multiplier 72 to the channel selection module 1 in a preset first time period. The third signal D3 multiplied by the third frequency multiplier 73 and the fourth signal D4 multiplied by the fourth frequency multiplier 74 are prohibited from being input to the channel selection module 1 during the first time period. The program register is further configured to input the third signal D3 multiplied by the third frequency multiplier 73 and the fourth signal D4 multiplied by the fourth frequency multiplier 74 to the channel selection module 1 for a preset second time period, The first signal D1 multiplied by the first frequency multiplier 71 and the second signal D2 multiplied by the second frequency multiplier 72 are prohibited from being input to the channel selection module 1 during the second period. It should be noted here that the intersection of the preset first time period and the preset second time period is an empty set to prevent the first signal D1, the second signal D2, the third signal D3, and the fourth signal D4 from interfering with each other. In particular, the shift register 6 is preferably a bidirectional shift register.
在本发明一优选的实施例中,参照图4,第一时段优选为每个数据传输周期的前半个周期,而第二时段优选为每个数据传输周期的后半个周期。换言之,对于一个数据传输周期而言,在其前半个周期传输第一信号D1和第二信号D2,在其后半个周期传输第三信号D3和第四信号D4。一般来说,第一信号D1和第二信号D2为互补信号(即当第一信号D1为高电平时,第二信号D2为低电平,反之亦然),两者能够复用两个数模转换器(即第一数模转换器31和第二数模转换器32);同样,第三信号D3和第四信号D4也为互补信号(即当第三信号D3为高电平时,第四信号D4为低电平,反之亦然),由于输入第三信号D3和第四信号D4对应的第二时段与输入第一信号D1和第二信号D2对应的第一时段无交集,因此第三信号D3和第四信号D4也能够复用前述的两个数模转换器(即第一数模转换器31和第二数模转换器32),从而实现了仅依靠两个数模转换器即可完成四个通道的信号输入。这里,四个通道的信号输入指的是第一通道51的信号输入、第二通道52的信号输入、第三通道53的信号输入和第四通道54的信号输入。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, referring to FIG. 4, the first time period is preferably the first half of each data transmission period, and the second time period is preferably the second half of each data transmission period. In other words, for one data transmission period, the first signal D1 and the second signal D2 are transmitted in the first half of the period, and the third signal D3 and the fourth signal D4 are transmitted in the second half of the period. Generally, the first signal D1 and the second signal D2 are complementary signals (ie, when the first signal D1 is at a high level, the second signal D2 is at a low level, and vice versa), and the two can multiplex two numbers.

In this way, the driving method of the source driving circuit corresponding to the embodiment includes: inputting the video data of the odd pair of channel pairs in the preset first time period due to the doubling of the frequency of the input digital signal (ie, the first channel pair, the third channel) Channel data of the channel pair, the fifth channel pair, and the seventh channel pair. At this time, it is forbidden to input the video data of the even pair of channel pairs (ie, prohibiting the input of the second channel pair, the fourth channel pair, and the sixth in the first time period) Channel pair, eighth channel pair... video data). Inputting the video data of the even-numbered pair of channels (ie, the second channel pair and the fourth channel pair) in the preset second time period (the second time period has no intersection with the first time period, that is, the intersection of the second time period and the first time period is an empty set) , the sixth channel pair, the eighth channel pair ... video data), at this time, it is forbidden to input the video data of the odd pair of channel pairs (ie, the first channel pair, the third channel pair, and the fifth channel pair are prohibited from being input in the second time period) , the seventh channel to ... video data). By adopting the above-mentioned source driving circuit and corresponding driving method, the design of multiplexing two digital-to-analog converters for every four channels can be realized, thereby halving the number of digital-to-analog converters in the source driving circuit, thereby greatly reducing the number of digital-to-analog converters in the source driving circuit.
