Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a display device, and more particularly to a gate driver of a liquid crystal display device and a method of operating the same. [Prior Art] In recent years, as the technology related to image display has been continuously developed, various types of inverted-age devices appearing on the market have gradually replaced conventional cathode ray tube (CRT) displays. Among them, Liquid Crystal DisPlayer (LCD) has been widely loved by consumers because of its advantages of power saving and no space occupation. Therefore, it has become the mainstay in the market. Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the operation of a power management chip and a gate driver of a conventional liquid crystal display device. As shown in Fig. 1, the power management chip i conventionally used for a liquid crystal display device mainly includes two parts of a boost regulater 10 and a chamfer wave generator (nwiteh). Among them, the liter-node ω is used to boost the low-voltage input power to the high voltage _ than the main lion AVDD. Analog The main power supply AVDD is used to supply the source driver (9) of the liquid crystal display device, the GTM reference voltage buffer, the first charge pump (charge = mp) 2, and the second charge pump 3. As for the first charge 2 and the first (four) pu 3, the high-level output power supply and the low-level turn-off power supply VGL will be divided to provide the sweeping line transmission of the two display devices after the 201110098. The signal of the driver and the driver of the terminal of the wave terminal and the terminal end which are different in the influence of the resistance and the parasitic electric surface delay are changed to the surface flashing displayed by the display device. For the level i, the output of the first-charge pump 2 is first transmitted through the Ξ and is not directly supplied to the gate, _11 5, and the number y^c = the chamfer wave generator 12 of the wafer 1 The chamfering control signal is used to output the power supply VGH for the chamfering process, and the power output signal VG is simply outputted to the gate drivers 5 by the chamfered output power signal VGHM.

When the resistance R1 § chamfering control signal YVC is at a high level, the chamfering control signal YVC reverse signal yyC -N is at a low level. At this time, the switch η will be turned on and the P2 will be turned off, so the slash (4) source signal

And the switch P2 will be turned on, so the chamfered output power supply §fl VGHM will discharge from the high voltage potential VGH through the grounded discharge resistor 丨. Although the above method can improve the phenomenon of the surface flashing phenomenon encountered by the liquid crystal display device, it also causes other insurmountable problems. Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a timing diagram showing the operation of the conventional chamfering wave generator 12. As shown in Figure 3, assume that the high voltage potential VGH is 30 volts (v) and the bottom corner voltage is 201110098 10V. During the first time interval t1, the switch pi is turned off and the switch P2 is turned on. The chamfered output power signal VGHM will begin to discharge the discharge node RE to form a chamfered waveform. Then, when the time enters the second time interval t2, the switch P1 is switched from the original closed state to the open state and the switch P2 is switched from the open state to the closed state. Due to the general switch Pi and ? The resistance of 2 is about 15 ohms or less. Therefore, a surge current is generated at the moment when switch P1 is switched from off to on, and its peak value is about (30 volts - 10 volts) / 15 ohms = 13 amps. It is worth noting that as the panel size of the liquid crystal display device continues to increase, the number of channels (channei) of the gate driver will also increase, so that the load capacitance of the chamfering wheel power supply VGHM becomes larger, causing the switch to open. Formation = The time during which the surge current is maintained also becomes longer. On the other hand, the money potential VGH of the interpole driver will also increase with the size of the panel. When the voltage at the bottom of the chamfer is not ,, the peak value of the surge current will also increase, thus forming a gate driver and its Damage to the package line. In addition, the conventional power supply official crystal 1 is quite inconvenient in order to have the process of the magazine 10 and the chamfering wave generator 12 in one stroke. I have read and spent many gates of design display devices. Therefore, the present invention proposes a method for applying to a liquid crystal cell and its operation to solve the above problems. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the first aspect of the present invention, an I#眚# such as 丨 /, a solid yoke example is a gate driver. The gate drive is applied to a liquid crystal based device, and the gate driver includes a 201110098 chamfer control module. Each of the complex array channels, each of which is twisted, i, and Zeng Yuan, respectively corresponds to the complex f channel, the two chamfer control commands are received, and the shift temporary storage signal corresponds to one of the complex array channels. The button is used to cause the power signal to start to be output by the chamfering control unit, and the waveform having the chamfered bit temporary signal is activated corresponding to the group of channels, that is, according to the high potential temperature of the channel Poverty*丨丨&> also 丨HH - ΧΛ 控 控 丨 ' ' 无 无 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据 根据The control signal is used as the weekly rate: to: (4) work f body embodiment of this embodiment i can design the clock signal of the new design to replace the original chamfer control signal directly with the system clock signal, Designed to further simplify the panel system according to the third embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to the liquid crystal display device, the gate drive 43 complex array channel and the chamfer control module, the plural Each group channel in the group channel contains minus Pour channel group comprising a plurality of side face angle control unit Wu, Wei-side of the sub-Qing Xiao wealth-membered group corresponding to the plurality of channels. The gate driver operation method comprises the following steps: First, the chamfer control module receives an i-bit temporary storage signal. Then, it is determined that the channel corresponding to the shift temporary signal belongs to the group channel in the complex array channel. Then, according to the above determination result, the angle control unit corresponding to the 201110098 is started in the plurality of chamfering control units. Then, the chamfering control unit has a waveform of chamfering according to the reception of the high-power source signal of one of the channels to be discharged. The advantages and spirit of the invention can be further understood by the following detailed description of the invention and the accompanying drawings. [Embodiment] The first embodiment of the invention is a gate driver. In the twisting only, the gate driver is applied to the liquid crystal display device, but not the second one: the same as the prior art, Wei Jingxian's transfer includes power management 4 and gate purchase [fine, value hiding] Since the present invention is driven by the gate drive to the respective (four) sources, when the chip designer designs the wafer management surface, only f considers the process of the boost regulator (for example, the process of 2GV voltage). Yes, it can greatly simplify the process and cost of wafer design, and increase the flexibility of process selection. More importantly, the invention is based on the concept of zone control to drive the gates of the wipes.] The control of the components is better than the components of the face, and the different groups of channels are controlled separately, and the low-level (10) control group Capacitance, and because the chamfering control module is built in the driver, it can effectively avoid the lack of wire l〇ading phenomenon in the traditional panel system. Please refer to Figure 4, Figure 4 The functional block diagram of the gate lock n according to the first embodiment of the present invention is shown. As shown in Fig. 4, the job drive 4 201110098 ο έ shifts the temporary storage of her 4 输 button, the transfer mode, the output buffer module 44, and the chamfer control group Μ. The shift temporary storage module 41_ is connected to the output enable control module 42; the output enable control module magic level offset module 43; the level shift module 43_ to the output buffer, on The real-medium gate driver 4 comprises a total of n lanes, and the n-test passes into m-group channels, and each of the lanes includes: - the group channel includes the first channel - the ^ channel; the second Group the second channel; the rest and so on. n, m and r are both -, I. For cattle example, if n=4〇〇 and m=4, then 1-400/4=100, but not limited to this.

I. Figure B shows the functional block diagram of the gate driver. Comparing the gate drivers shown in Figure 8B and Figure 4, the difference between the two is that 'in order to be able to design the panel system and reduce the type of delivery, Figure 8B is based on the system clock signal CLK. Replace the chamfer control signal YVC in Figure 4. In fact, the duty cycle of the local signal system CLK is designed to match the working cycle rate of the chamfering control signal yvc, and the system clock signal CLK can be directly used as the chamfering control. Signal use. As for the figure 9, the timing diagram of the chamfering control module 45 in Fig. 8B is shown. Comparing Fig. 9 with Fig. 5, the difference between the two is only that the system clock signal CLK replaces the chamfer control signal YVC in Fig. 5, so it will not be described separately. In summary, in addition to the advantages of avoiding the damage caused by the surge current and the design of the chip of a single power supply, the gate actuator of the present embodiment can also be used by the Japanese Guardian CLK. To replace the chamfering control number 12 201110098, in one method, the gate driver includes a re-clawing day. The control module for each corner of the array channel is not installed, the multi-package number _ angular control unit, the complex number = == on the complex array channel. Please refer to Fig. 10, which is a flow chart showing the operation method of the pole driver according to the example of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 10, first == execution tilt S1〇, auxiliary group receiving-shift temporary storage signal::=, the emirate performs step S12, and determines that the channel corresponding to the shift temporary storage signal belongs to the complex array. One of the channels in the channel. In the actual financial situation, as long as the working cycle rate of the pulse design signal is the same as that of the chamfer control signal, the system can directly control the signal. Next, the method performs step S14' to start a chamfering control unit corresponding to one of the set of channels in the plurality of control units according to the determination result. Then, in step F6, the chamfer control unit tg turns on one of the chamfer control units to activate the switch according to the receiving state. In fact, the active switch can be a PMOS element or an NM 〇 s element. Finally, in step S18, the chamfer control unit is input to one of the channels, and the high-potential power signal starts to discharge and has a waveform 45 for chamfering. For the detailed gate driver operation mode, reference may be made to the first embodiment described above. The description of the related drawings is not described here. 13 201110098 Compared with the prior art, the gate driver according to the present invention can effectively avoid the transmission, the level, and the surge current formed by the original 理 晶 产生 对于 对于 对于 对于 对于 对于It has a single-power supply, reduces the type of signal, and simplifies the original power management. "Design Complex (4). More importantly, the present invention divides the chamfer control module in the polarity driver into multiple chamfers through the partition control concept. Control material to reduce the load grid of the control module, and because the _ sugar control system is built in the _ drive, it can effectively avoid the shortcomings of the electric dust drop caused by the wire load phenomenon in the traditional panel system. 'The gates of this month and the moon can greatly improve the design process and cost of the overall panel display system, and use the panel of the gate driver to show the competitiveness of the system in the market.
