Description
本發明相關於一種液晶顯示裝置及其驅動方法,尤指一種依據資料訊號之最大有效位元(Most Significant Bit,MSB)來控制電荷分享之液晶顯示裝置及其驅動方法。The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof, and more particularly to a liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof for controlling charge sharing according to a Most Significant Bit (MSB) of a data signal.
由於液晶顯示器(liquid crystal display)具有低輻射、體積小及低耗能等優點,已逐漸取代傳統的陰極射線管顯示器(cathode ray tube display),因而被廣泛地應用在筆記型電腦、個人數位助理(personal digital assistant,PDA)、平面電視,或行動電話等資訊產品上。Liquid crystal display has been widely used in notebook computers and personal digital assistants because it has the advantages of low radiation, small size and low energy consumption. It has gradually replaced the traditional cathode ray tube display. (personal digital assistant, PDA), flat-screen TV, or mobile phone and other information products.
請參考第1圖,第1圖為先前技術中一液晶顯示器10之示意圖。液晶顯示器10包含一液晶顯示面板12、一時序控制器(timing controller)14、一源極驅動器(source driver)16,和一閘極驅動器(gate driver)18。液晶顯示面板12上設有複數條互相平行之資料線(data line)D1 -Dm 、複數條互相平行之閘極線(gate line)G1 -Gn ,以及複數個顯示單元P11 -Pmn 。資料線D1 -Dm 和閘極線G1 -Gn 彼此交錯設置,而顯示單元P11 -Pmn 則分別設於相對應資料線和閘極線之交會處。時序控制器14用來產生驅動液晶顯示面板12所需之控制訊號和時脈訊號。源極驅動器16和閘極驅動器18依據時序控制器14傳來之訊號分別產生相對應之資料訊號和閘極訊號。液晶顯示面板12上之每個顯示單元皆包含有一薄膜電晶體(thin film transistor,TFT)開關和一液晶電容,每一液晶電容之一端透過一相對應之薄膜電晶體開關耦接於一相對應之資料線,而另一端則耦接於一共同電壓Vcom 。當收到閘極驅動器18所產生之閘極訊號而開啟一顯示單元之薄膜電晶體開關時,此顯示單元之液晶電容會被電性連接至其相對應之資料線以接收從源極驅動器16傳來之資料訊號,因此顯示單元可依據其液晶電容內存之電荷來控制液晶分子的旋轉程度,以顯示不同灰階之影像。Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a liquid crystal display 10 in the prior art. The liquid crystal display 10 includes a liquid crystal display panel 12, a timing controller 14, a source driver 16, and a gate driver 18. The liquid crystal display panel 12 is provided with a plurality of parallel data lines D 1 -D m , a plurality of parallel gate lines G 1 -G n , and a plurality of display units P 11 - P mn . The data lines D 1 -D m and the gate lines G 1 -G n are alternately arranged with each other, and the display units P 11 -P mn are respectively disposed at the intersection of the corresponding data lines and the gate lines. The timing controller 14 is used to generate control signals and clock signals required to drive the liquid crystal display panel 12. The source driver 16 and the gate driver 18 respectively generate corresponding data signals and gate signals according to the signals transmitted from the timing controller 14. Each display unit on the liquid crystal display panel 12 includes a thin film transistor (TFT) switch and a liquid crystal capacitor, and one end of each liquid crystal capacitor is coupled to a corresponding one through a corresponding thin film transistor switch. The data line is coupled to a common voltage V com . When the gate transistor signal generated by the gate driver 18 is received to turn on the thin film transistor switch of the display unit, the liquid crystal capacitor of the display unit is electrically connected to the corresponding data line to receive the slave source driver 16 The information signal is transmitted, so the display unit can control the rotation degree of the liquid crystal molecules according to the charge of the liquid crystal capacitor memory to display images of different gray levels.
隨著大尺寸應用的需求不斷增加,液晶顯示器的面板尺寸不斷變大,面板的負載也相應增加,動態功率消耗也會大幅提昇,如何降低功率消耗也成為設計液晶顯示器時的重要課題。一般而言,施加在液晶電容兩端的電壓極性必須每隔一預定時間進行反轉,以避免液晶材料產生極化(polarization)而造成永久性的破壞,常見驅動液晶顯示面板之方式包含點反轉(dot inversion)和線反轉(line inversion)等。當驅動液晶顯示面板的電壓極性開始反轉之際,源極驅動器之電流消耗最大,故此時也是液晶顯示器負載最大的時間。As the demand for large-sized applications continues to increase, the panel size of liquid crystal displays continues to increase, the load on the panels increases accordingly, and the dynamic power consumption is also greatly increased. How to reduce power consumption has become an important issue in designing liquid crystal displays. In general, the polarity of the voltage applied across the liquid crystal capacitor must be reversed every predetermined time to avoid permanent polarization of the liquid crystal material. The common method of driving the liquid crystal display panel includes dot inversion. (dot inversion) and line inversion (line inversion) and so on. When the polarity of the voltage driving the liquid crystal display panel starts to reverse, the current consumption of the source driver is the largest, so this is also the time when the liquid crystal display is loaded the most.
於是有的液晶顯示器便使用電荷分享(charge sharing)的方法來降低功率消耗,在源極驅動器輸出資料訊號之前,先將電荷重新分配,藉此可以將消耗的動態電流節省一半。在先前技術之液晶顯示器10中,源極驅動器160包含複數個輸出緩衝器OB和複數個電荷分享開關CS,源極驅動器16可透過輸出緩衝器OB將資料訊號傳至相對應之資料線,每一電荷分享開關CS則耦接於兩相鄰之資料線之間,透過開啟電荷分享開關CS來達到電荷分享的效果。在先前技術之液晶顯示器10中,無論輸入資料訊號的電位高低,在每一寫入週期皆會在奇數條資料線和偶數條資料線之間執行電荷分享,源極驅動器16可能會執行不必要的電荷分享,反而因此而增加功率消耗。Therefore, some liquid crystal displays use charge sharing to reduce power consumption, and redistribute the charge before the source driver outputs the data signal, thereby saving the consumed dynamic current by half. In the liquid crystal display 10 of the prior art, the source driver 160 includes a plurality of output buffers OB and a plurality of charge sharing switches CS, and the source driver 16 can transmit the data signals to the corresponding data lines through the output buffer OB. A charge sharing switch CS is coupled between two adjacent data lines to achieve charge sharing by turning on the charge sharing switch CS. In the liquid crystal display 10 of the prior art, regardless of the potential level of the input data signal, charge sharing is performed between the odd data lines and the even data lines in each writing period, and the source driver 16 may perform unnecessary. The charge sharing, on the contrary, increases power consumption.
