Description

micro-LED像素的驱动电路、方法及系统Micro-LED pixel driving circuit, method and system 技术领域Technical Field

本发明涉及micro-LED显示器技术领域,更具体地说,涉及一种micro-LED像素的驱动电路、方法及系统。The present invention relates to the technical field of micro-LED displays, and more specifically, to a driving circuit, method and system for micro-LED pixels.

背景技术Background technique

micro-LED显示技术是指微米量级的LED像素单元,将其组装到驱动面板上可形成高密度的LED显示阵列。由于micro-LED芯片尺寸小、集成度高和自发光等特点,在显示方面,micro-LED于亮度、分辨率、对比度、能耗、使用寿命、响应速度和热稳定性等方面与LCD、OLED相比具有更大的优势。早期的LED显示屏像素采用红绿蓝R/G/B三基色的LED结合而成。Micro-LED display technology refers to micron-scale LED pixel units, which can be assembled on a drive panel to form a high-density LED display array. Due to the small size, high integration and self-luminescence of micro-LED chips, micro-LED has greater advantages than LCD and OLED in terms of brightness, resolution, contrast, energy consumption, service life, response speed and thermal stability. Early LED display pixels were made of LEDs with three primary colors of red, green and blue (R/G/B).

在现有的micro-LED像素驱动电路中,如图1及图2所示,其包含逻辑运算模块(Logic)和像素驱动模块(右侧虚线框内)。逻辑运算模块和像素驱动模块电性连接。逻辑运算模块并行接收图像n bit数据信号D、对图像时序控制的时序控制信号SF、以及用于将n bit数据信号D转化为逻辑器件可运算的数据信号DL的WL信号。而逻辑运算模块输出n bit的Y信号(参照图2中的Y0~Y3)。进一步地,再将Y0~Y3信号进行非或门的逻辑判断以产生用来驱动micro-LED像素发光的控制信号,并且像素驱动模块再透过控制信号驱动micro-LED像素发光。In the existing micro-LED pixel driving circuit, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, it includes a logic operation module (Logic) and a pixel driving module (in the dotted box on the right). The logic operation module and the pixel driving module are electrically connected. The logic operation module receives in parallel the image n-bit data signal D, the timing control signal SF for image timing control, and the WL signal for converting the n-bit data signal D into a data signal DL operable by the logic device. The logic operation module outputs an n-bit Y signal (refer to Y0~Y3 in FIG. 2). Furthermore, the Y0~Y3 signals are subjected to a logic judgment of a non-OR gate to generate a control signal for driving the micro-LED pixel to emit light, and the pixel driving module drives the micro-LED pixel to emit light through the control signal.

然而在现有的技术方案中,每个像素具有n-1个图像n bit数据信号D以及时序控制信号SF的输入。如图2所示,显示器中数据线及控制线的数量随着n的增加而增多,并且时序控制信号仅为用以控制micro-LED的亮度及灰度的空占比信号,因此,在设计电气版图时将会导致布线困难、布线数量大、导致像素面积大、线与线之间互相干扰等一系列问题。因此,需要考虑新的控制方法以改进现有技术的问题However, in the existing technical solution, each pixel has n-1 image n bit data signals D and timing control signals SF input. As shown in Figure 2, the number of data lines and control lines in the display increases with the increase of n, and the timing control signal is only a duty cycle signal used to control the brightness and grayscale of the micro-LED. Therefore, when designing the electrical layout, it will lead to a series of problems such as wiring difficulties, large number of wirings, large pixel area, and mutual interference between lines. Therefore, it is necessary to consider new control methods to improve the problems of the existing technology.

发明内容Summary of the invention

FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a micro-LED pixel driving circuit C according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 shows a timing diagram of writing a pixel data signal D according to an input control signal WL. FIG. 5 shows a timing diagram of outputting an image control signal according to a timing control signal SF. As shown in FIG. 3, the micro-LED pixel driving circuit C includes a sequential storage unit 1, a NOT gate logic operator 2 and a pixel driving unit 3. The sequential storage unit 1 is electrically connected to the NOT gate logic operator 2, and the NOT gate logic operator 2 is electrically connected to the pixel driving unit 3. The sequential storage unit 1 is used to receive and generate an image control signal according to a plurality of pixel data signals D, an input control signal WL and a plurality of timing control signals SF. The NOT gate logic operator 2 receives and generates a driving signal according to the image control signal generated by the sequential storage unit 1. The pixel driving unit 3 includes a micro-LED pixel 3-3 and is used to drive the micro-LED pixel 3-3 to emit light according to the driving signal generated by the NOT gate logic operator 2.

在本具体实施例中,顺序存储单元1根据输入控制信号WL接收多个像素数据信 号D,多个时序控制信号SF以一时序依序排列,并且像素数据信号D分别对应时序控制信号SF。于实务中,像素数据信号D可为外部图像n bit数据信号,并且输入控制信号WL可为控制写入像素数据信号D的控制信号。举例来说,输入控制信号WL可为方波并且可对应像素数据信号D。而时序控制信号SF可包含以时间占比的方式控制micro-LED像素3-3的亮度及灰度的控制信号,并且也可按照像素数据信号D输入的顺序依序排列。举例来说,当图像为4bit数据信号时,顺序存储单元1可串行依序接收4个像素数据信号D,并且所接收的4个时序控制信号SF可对应4个像素数据信号D串行依序排列。而每一个时序控制信号SF可对应控制每一个bit的像素数据信号D的亮度及灰度。In this specific embodiment, the sequential storage unit 1 receives a plurality of pixel data signals D according to an input control signal WL, a plurality of timing control signals SF are arranged in sequence in a timing sequence, and the pixel data signals D correspond to the timing control signals SF respectively. In practice, the pixel data signal D may be an external image n bit data signal, and the input control signal WL may be a control signal for controlling the writing of the pixel data signal D. For example, the input control signal WL may be a square wave and may correspond to the pixel data signal D. The timing control signal SF may include a control signal for controlling the brightness and grayscale of the micro-LED pixel 3-3 in a time proportion manner, and may also be arranged in sequence according to the order in which the pixel data signal D is input. For example, when the image is a 4-bit data signal, the sequential storage unit 1 may receive 4 pixel data signals D in series and sequence, and the received 4 timing control signals SF may correspond to the 4 pixel data signals D and be arranged in series and sequence. Each timing control signal SF may correspond to controlling the brightness and grayscale of each bit of the pixel data signal D.

在本具体实施例中,顺序存储单元1不仅可满足外部图像数据的写入寄存的功能,也同时可满足能够接收时序控制信号的处理功能。于实务中,顺序存储单元1可为FIFO存储器1a(First Input First Output存储器)。如图4及图5所示,当FIFO存储器1a接收4bit的像素数据信号D、输入控制信号WL以及时序控制信号SF时,FIFO存储器1a可根据输入控制信号WL中的上升沿的信号写入及储存像素数据信号D(B0~B3)并且储存时序控制信号SF。以图5为例,Clock为周期信号并且每个周期为t0。时序控制信号SF(SF0~SF3)分别为t0、2*t0、4*t0及8*t0的信号。接着,FIFO存储器1a再根据像素数据信号D以及对应的时序控制信号SF(SF0~SF3)产生图像控制信号DCT,而图像控制信号可包含4个bit的图像控制信号。请注意,前述的像素数据信号D、输入控制信号WL及时序控制信号SF的数量、周期不限于图中的样态,皆可根据图像的需求而决定。In this specific embodiment, the sequential storage unit 1 can not only satisfy the function of writing and storing external image data, but also satisfy the processing function of being able to receive the timing control signal. In practice, the sequential storage unit 1 can be a FIFO memory 1a (First Input First Output memory). As shown in Figures 4 and 5, when the FIFO memory 1a receives a 4-bit pixel data signal D, an input control signal WL, and a timing control signal SF, the FIFO memory 1a can write and store the pixel data signal D (B0-B3) and store the timing control signal SF according to the rising edge signal in the input control signal WL. Taking Figure 5 as an example, Clock is a periodic signal and each period is t0. The timing control signals SF (SF0-SF3) are signals of t0, 2*t0, 4*t0, and 8*t0, respectively. Then, the FIFO memory 1a generates an image control signal DCT according to the pixel data signal D and the corresponding timing control signal SF (SF0-SF3), and the image control signal can include a 4-bit image control signal. Please note that the numbers and periods of the aforementioned pixel data signal D, input control signal WL and timing control signal SF are not limited to those shown in the figure, and can be determined according to image requirements.

在本具体实施例中,当顺序存储单元1输出图像控制信号DCT后,图像控制信号DCT可作为非门逻辑运算器2的输入端,而非门逻辑运算器2透过非门逻辑将图像控制信号DCT反相运算,进而产生驱动信号。相同的,驱动信号也可包含4个bit的驱动信号。In this specific embodiment, after the sequential storage unit 1 outputs the image control signal DCT, the image control signal DCT can be used as the input end of the NOT gate logic operator 2, and the NOT gate logic operator 2 inverts the image control signal DCT through the NOT gate logic to generate a driving signal. Similarly, the driving signal can also include a 4-bit driving signal.

在本具体实施例中,像素驱动单元3进一步包含电流源3-1以及开关管3-2,并且开关管3-2可为场效电晶体(PMOS)。进一步地,开关管3-2包含源极、栅极以及漏极。开关管3-2的源极连接电流源3-1,开关管3-2的栅极连接非门逻辑运算器2,开关管3-2的漏极连接micro-LED像素3-3的正极,并且micro-LED像素3-3的负极接地。于实务中,当非门逻辑运算器2输出驱动信号之后,开关管3-2的栅极可接收驱动信号,并且开关管3-2可根据4个bit的驱动信号依序驱动micro-LED像素3-3发光,进而使micro-LED像素3-3发出4bit数据信号的图像。In this specific embodiment, the pixel driving unit 3 further includes a current source 3-1 and a switch tube 3-2, and the switch tube 3-2 can be a field effect transistor (PMOS). Further, the switch tube 3-2 includes a source, a gate and a drain. The source of the switch tube 3-2 is connected to the current source 3-1, the gate of the switch tube 3-2 is connected to the NOT gate logic operator 2, the drain of the switch tube 3-2 is connected to the positive electrode of the micro-LED pixel 3-3, and the negative electrode of the micro-LED pixel 3-3 is grounded. In practice, after the NOT gate logic operator 2 outputs the driving signal, the gate of the switch tube 3-2 can receive the driving signal, and the switch tube 3-2 can sequentially drive the micro-LED pixel 3-3 to emit light according to the 4-bit driving signal, thereby causing the micro-LED pixel 3-3 to emit an image of a 4-bit data signal.

在实际应用中,当本发明的micro-LED像素的驱动电路C处理n bit的图像并且接收n个像素数据信号D、多个时序控制信号SF以及输入控制信号WL时,顺序存储单元1以串行输入的方式依序写入并储存像素数据信号D及多个时序控制信号SF, 进而分析并产生n个图像控制信号DCT。接着,非门逻辑运算器2再透过非门逻辑将n个图像控制信号DCT转换成n个驱动信号。最后,像素驱动单元3再根据n个驱动信号驱动micro-LED像素3-3发光。因此,本发明的micro-LED像素的驱动电路是透过串行输入的方式依序单行写入图像数据,以减少电路中繁杂的数据线及控制线,进而避免线与线之间的干扰,进而提升传输品质及处理效率。此外,当处理更多位元的图像数据时,本发明的micro-LED像素的驱动电路仍可为单行输入,因此,在设计电气版图时布线数量不会随着位元数增加而变多,进而减少像素面积。In practical applications, when the micro-LED pixel driving circuit C of the present invention processes an n-bit image and receives n pixel data signals D, multiple timing control signals SF, and input control signals WL, the sequential storage unit 1 sequentially writes and stores the pixel data signals D and multiple timing control signals SF in a serial input manner, and then analyzes and generates n image control signals DCT. Then, the NOT gate logic operator 2 converts the n image control signals DCT into n driving signals through the NOT gate logic. Finally, the pixel driving unit 3 drives the micro-LED pixel 3-3 to emit light according to the n driving signals. Therefore, the micro-LED pixel driving circuit of the present invention sequentially writes the image data in a single line in a serial input manner to reduce the complicated data lines and control lines in the circuit, thereby avoiding interference between lines, and thus improving the transmission quality and processing efficiency. In addition, when processing more bits of image data, the micro-LED pixel driving circuit of the present invention can still be a single-line input. Therefore, when designing the electrical layout, the number of wiring will not increase with the increase in the number of bits, thereby reducing the pixel area.

Please refer to FIG6. FIG6 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the micro-LED pixel driving circuit C' according to another specific embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG6, the difference between this specific embodiment and the aforementioned specific embodiment is that the sequential storage unit 1' of this specific embodiment includes a shift register 1b and an OR gate logic operator 1c. The OR gate logic operator 1c is connected to the shift register 1b, and the shift register 1b is connected to the NOT gate logic operator 2'. In practice, when the sequential storage unit 1' receives the pixel data signal D, the input control signal WL and the timing control signal SF, the OR gate logic operator 1c receives the input control signal WL and the timing control signal SF, and the shift register 1b receives the pixel data signal D. Further, the OR gate logic operator 1c first analyzes the input control signal WL and the timing control signal SF in an OR gate logic manner to generate an output control signal. Then, the shift register 1b analyzes the output control signal and the pixel data signal D to generate an image control signal. The function of the pixel driving unit 3' is substantially the same as that of the pixel driving unit in the aforementioned specific embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

The timing controller 03 generates a plurality of image control signals corresponding to the plurality of micro-LED pixels according to the plurality of pixel data signals, the input control signal and the plurality of timing control signals, and operates the plurality of image control signals by means of NOT gate logic to generate a plurality of driving signals corresponding to the plurality of micro-LED pixels, and then outputs the plurality of driving signals to the display 01 to drive the plurality of micro-LED pixels to emit light.

The timing controller 03 may receive pixel data signals, input control signals, and timing control signals of corresponding micro-LED pixels from the buffer 02 according to the micro-LED pixels to be emitted. Then, the timing controller 03 transmits the generated driving signals of the micro-LED pixels to the corresponding micro-LED pixels in the display 01 and drives the micro-LED pixels to emit light, thereby causing the display 01 to present an image.

而时序控制器03也可为包含移位寄存器以及或门逻辑运算器的样态。当micro-LED像素的驱动系统S的缓存器02接收并储存图像数据时,或门逻辑运算器可分别接收输入控制信号以及多个时序控制信号并进行或门逻辑运算以产生对应多个micro-LED像素的多个输出控制信号。并且移位寄存器可根据多个micro-LED像素的多个输出控制信号以及该多个像素数据信号产生多个micro-LED像素的多个图像控制信号。The timing controller 03 may also include a shift register and an OR gate logic operator.

The shift register may generate multiple image control signals for multiple micro-LED pixels according to the multiple output control signals of the multiple micro-LED pixels and the multiple pixel data signals.

在一具体实施例中,缓存器可为帧缓冲存储器(Frame Buffer),并且时序控制器可为控制板(TCON)。于实务中,帧缓冲存储器可包含多个储存空间,并且多个储存空间分别对应显示器的多个micro-LED像素。当缓存器接收图像数据时,缓存器可将图像数据中的每一个micro-LED像素的像素数据信号、输入控制信号及时序控制信号分别储存于对应micro-LED像素的储存空间。进一步地,时序控制器可根据欲发光的micro-LED像素自对应的储存空间接收对应micro-LED像素的像素数据信号、输入控制信号以及时序控制信号。接着,时序控制器再将产生的micro-LED像素的驱动信号传送至显示器中对应的micro-LED像素并驱动micro-LED像素发光,进而使显示器呈现图像。In a specific embodiment, the buffer may be a frame buffer memory (Frame Buffer), and the timing controller may be a control board (TCON). In practice, the frame buffer memory may include multiple storage spaces, and the multiple storage spaces correspond to multiple micro-LED pixels of the display. When the buffer receives image data, the buffer may store the pixel data signal, input control signal and timing control signal of each micro-LED pixel in the image data in the storage space corresponding to the micro-LED pixel. Furthermore, the timing controller may receive the pixel data signal, input control signal and timing control signal of the corresponding micro-LED pixel from the corresponding storage space according to the micro-LED pixel to be emitted. Then, the timing controller transmits the generated drive signal of the micro-LED pixel to the corresponding micro-LED pixel in the display and drives the micro-LED pixel to emit light, so that the display presents an image.

综上所述,本发明的micro-LED像素的驱动电路是透过串行输入的方式依序单 行写入图像数据,以减少电路中繁杂的数据线及控制线,进而避免线与线之间的干扰,进而提升传输品质及处理效率。此外,当处理更多位元的图像数据时,本发明的micro-LED像素的驱动电路仍可为单行输入,因此,在设计电气版图时布线数量不会随着位元数增加而变多,进而减少像素面积。In summary, the micro-LED pixel driving circuit of the present invention writes image data in a single row in sequence through serial input, so as to reduce the complicated data lines and control lines in the circuit, thereby avoiding interference between lines, and thus improving transmission quality and processing efficiency. In addition, when processing image data with more bits, the micro-LED pixel driving circuit of the present invention can still be a single-row input, so when designing the electrical layout, the number of wiring will not increase with the increase in the number of bits, thereby reducing the pixel area.
