Description

补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置及方法 技术领域
本发明涉及有源矩阵有机发光二极体(Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode,AMOLED)显示技术领域,尤其是一种补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降(IR drop)的装置、具有该补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置的显示装置及对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的方法。
背景技术
在AMOLED显示系统中,有机发光二极管(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)的发光亮度与驱动电流成正比,并与驱动电压信号的平方成正比,故在低灰度显示状态下,OLED的发光亮度对于驱动电压信号的变化十分敏感。在AMOLED显示系统内,由于电源信号线上的IR drop会引起OLED器件驱动电压信号的变化,从而影响AMOLED显示系统内显示屏有源区(Active Area,AA′)显示效果的均匀性,故在背板电路设计中常常引入补偿技术来对OLED器件驱动电压信号进行补偿,其中外部补偿是常常采用的一种补偿方式。
外部补偿是采用具有补偿功能的像素电路和定制的驱动芯片来实现对AMOLED显示系统内显示屏有源区的电流或电压的补偿。采用的像素电路结构例如是3个晶体管1个电容器(3 transistors and 1 capacitor,3T1C)或4个晶体管2个电容器(4 transistors and 2 capacitors,4T2C)等,而补偿机制的启动常常需要外围模组电路提供特定的模块来完成。
对于AMOLED显示系统而言,为使OLED器件发光,需要消耗较大电流,而AMOLED显示系统内显示屏的驱动集成电路(Integrated Circuit,IC)的电源驱动能力较弱,无法提供相应的电流,需要外加独立的直流-直流(DC-DC)电源来提供相应的电流。实际使用中发现,由于AMOLED显示系统内显示屏有源区显示画面的不同,OLED器件发光所需电流范围是从黑画面的接近0毫安到显示纯白画面的上百毫安,而外加独立的 DC-DC电源到有源区的引线电阻通常是有几个欧姆,这样传输到显示屏有源区像素单元上的电源电压降范围是0~几百毫伏。由于OLED器件的像素单元显示亮度与电源电压的平方成正比,因此在低灰度显示状态下OLED器件的像素单元显示亮度对于驱动电压信号的变化非常敏感,这个电压降,即IR drop,会造成有源区显示效果的不均匀,对有源区显示亮度的影响非常大。
同时,由于IR drop与画面显示内容有关,IR drop的存在也使得显示屏用于表征输出图像对输入信号失真的参数γ的值难以准确设置。
发明内容
有鉴于此,为了改善AMOLED显示系统内显示屏有源区的显示画质,本发明的主要目的在于提供一种补偿显示屏有源区IR drop的装置、具有该补偿显示屏有源区IR drop的装置的显示装置及对显示屏有源区IR drop进行补偿的方法。

将所述数字信号与当前显示画面的电流或电压消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流或电压补偿值;
根据该电流或电压补偿值产生补偿电压,然后将该补偿电压反馈给显示屏的ELVDD引线。
为达到上述目的的再一个方面,本发明提供了一种显示装置,包括显示屏和补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置,其中,
该显示屏在有源区具有ELVDD总线及由多个像素单元以矩阵形式构成的像素单元阵列,每个像素单元均与该ELVDD总线相连接,该ELVDD总线通过ELVDD引线连接于驱动集成电路;

从上述技术方案可以看出,本发明具有以下有益效果:
1、利用本发明,通过实时检测显示屏ELVDD引线上的驱动集成电路(IC)输出的显示信号,并根据该显示信号来调整反馈给显示屏ELVDD引线的补偿电压,使得不论显示屏有源区显示什么内容,反馈给显示屏ELVDD引线的补偿电压均能够随显示画面的变化而改变,实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行外部动态补偿,从而使显示屏有源区具有统一和稳 定的ELVDD电压,进而有效地改善了显示系统的显示画质。
2、利用本发明,对于是否需要对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的判断,可以基于显示屏有源区驱动IC输出的数字信号来直接判断,无需再进行数字模拟的转化,实现过程简单,容易实现。
3、利用本发明,对于显示屏有源区IR drop的补偿,是将补偿电压反馈给显示屏ELVDD引线,进而通过显示屏有源区的ELVDD总线施加至显示屏有源区每个像素单元,实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降的外部动态补偿,所以信号采样和补偿信号的输入的相关电路设计都相对来说比较简单。

具体实施方式
为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚明白,以下结合具体实施例,并参照附图,对本发明进一步详细说明。
如图1所示,图1是依照本发明实施例的包括显示屏和补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置的显示装置的示意图,该显示装置包括显示屏1、输入信号比较器2、处理器3和电压信号调制装置4,其中输入信号比较器2、处理器3和电压信号调制装置4依次连接构成补偿显示屏有源区直 流电压降的装置,且输入信号比较器2和电压信号调制装置4均连接于显示屏1的ELVDD引线。
图1中,显示屏1用以显示画面,包括ELVDD总线、由多个像素单元以矩阵形式构成的像素单元阵列、ELVDD引线a和a′、扇出(Fanout)区s、驱动IC、软性印刷电路(Flexible Print Circuit,FPC)、以及有源区四周的行驱动电路(GOA)和静电防护(ESD)电路等。其中,有源区(Active Area,AA′)亦称为像素区,是ELVDD总线和像素单元阵列所在的区域,构成像素单元阵列的多个像素单元均与ELVDD总线相连接,ELVDD总线是外部电源提供的电压在显示屏内部的走线,ELVDD总线通过ELVDD引线连接于驱动IC,有源区与驱动IC之间通过Fanout区s连接,Fanout区s是驱动IC与有源区的ELVDD总线之间的引线所在的区域,GOA电路用于为像素单元提供行扫描信号,静电防护电路用于为显示屏上的各种信号线进行静电保护。
在该补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置中,输入信号比较器2实时检测当前显示画面在该ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗,将检测到的该电流或电压消耗转化为数字信号。处理器3从输入信号比较器2接收数字信号,将接收的数字信号与当前显示画面的电流或电压消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流或电压补偿值。电压信号调制装置4从处理器3接收电流或电压补偿值,根据接收的该电流或电压补偿值产生补偿电压,然后将该补偿电压反馈给显示屏1的ELVDD引线,进而通过显示屏1的ELVDD总线施加至每个像素单元,实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降的外部动态补偿。
图1中,当前显示画面在ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗等于在当前显示画面下有源区各像素单元电流或电压消耗的总和。输入信号比较器2对当前显示画面下各像素单元电流或电压消耗的总和进行计算,作为当前显示画面在该ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗。
作为示例,处理器3可以具有随机存储器(RAM),该RAM中存储有预先基于ELVDD引线上的输入信号配置的查找表,该查找表至少包括ELVDD引线上的输入信号与当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值之间的映射关系。ELVDD引线上的输入信号是来自显示屏1的驱动集成电路的 显示信号,根据该显示信号计算出理想情况下各像素单元的灰度值,然后根据该灰度值计算出在理想情况下各像素单元消耗的电流或电压值,该电流或电压值的总和即为当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值,从而得到输入信号与当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值之间的映射。需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流或电压补偿值是输入信号比较器2实时检测到的该电流或电压消耗与当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值之间的差值。
在本发明的一个实施例中,假定当前显示画面由红绿蓝(RGB)三原色形成,输入信号比较器实时检测的是当前显示画面在该ELVDD总线上的电流消耗,以下对该实施例进行详细说明。
对于由RGB三原色形成的显示画面,输入信号比较器2实时检测当前显示画面在该ELVDD总线上的电流消耗Itotal=(Ired+Igreen+Iblue)×M×N,其中Ired、Igreen和Iblue分别为红绿蓝三原色对应的三个子像素的电流,M为有源区数据线列数,N为有源区扫描线行数。
由于OLED显示为自发光技术,所以显示全黑画面时,像素电流最小,接近于0,此时显示屏1的ELVDD总线上消耗的电流亦为最小。而当显示全白画面时,像素电流最大,此时显示屏1的ELVDD总线上消耗的电流亦为最大。因此,输入信号比较器2在检测显示屏1显示画面的电流消耗的过程中,显示屏1显示不同灰阶画面时,电压信号调制装置4反馈给显示屏1的补偿电压不相同。
为了实现256灰阶的显示画面,一般驱动IC提供给显示屏有源区的显示信号为R∶G∶B=8∶8∶8的24位的数字信号,对于单色画面,即为8位的数字信号,此时输入信号比较器的示意图如图2所示,图2示出的是本发明一个实施例中输入信号比较器的结构示意图,其中“b7b6b5b4b3b2b1b0”为8位显示数据,“10000000”为输入信号比较器的参考数据,当输入“b7b6b5b4b3b2b1b0”为“10000000”时,即输入信号为第128灰阶的显示数据时,该输入信号比较器输出(output)为逻辑“1”,即将检测到的该电流消耗转化为数字信号并输出给处理器。需要说明的是,由于精确补偿需要使用的系统资源比较多,一般情况下可只统计高于127灰阶的显示数据,从而仅实现对高灰阶数据的补偿。
处理器3在接收到输入信号比较器2输出的数字信号后,将该数字信 号与自身RAM所存储的当前显示画面的电流消耗基准值进行比较,二者的差值即为需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流补偿值,然后将该电流补偿值输出给电压信号调制装置4。电压信号调制装置4根据接收自处理器3的该电流补偿值产生补偿电压,然后将该补偿电压反馈给显示屏的ELVDD引线,进而通过显示屏的ELVDD总线施加至每个像素单元,实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降的外部动态补偿。
目前针对当前显示画面进行补偿有两种方式,一种是采用内部补偿方式,另一种是采用外部补偿方式。内部补偿方式是在像素电路中引入补偿信号。此种内部补偿方式可以针对每个像素进行准确的补偿,实现较好的补偿效果,可实现此种补偿方式的像素电路如图3所示。但是此种内部补偿方式需要在像素电路中加入具有ELVDD补偿功能的补偿电路,导致像素电路一般具有至少3个或者更多的薄膜场效应晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)器件,而对于高分辨率显示来说,随着像素面积的不断减小,此种内部补偿方式最终将面临巨大的挑战,大大提高了像素电路的复杂性,对像素电路的版图设计要求较高,因而导致实现过程复杂,实现成本较高。故对于高分辨率显示,采用外部补偿方式可能更为合适。
外部补偿方式是对于显示屏的有源区进行整体补偿,即在显示屏的ELVDD总线上进行电压补偿,直接提升整个有源区ELVDD总线的供电水平,此种补偿方式,电路结构简单,对于每个像素不会增加额外的设计,对于高分辨率的显示背板的设计,具有很高的实用价值。
本实施例中采用外部补偿方式。处理器3在显示屏1当前显示的画面需要补偿时计算出应补偿的电流值,处理器3计算应补偿的电流值是采用查找表的方式实现的。该查找表至少包括ELVDD引线上的输入信号与当前显示画面电流消耗基准值之间的映射关系。ELVDD引线上的输入信号是来自显示屏1的驱动集成电路的显示信号,处理器3按照设计的不同,根据该显示信号计算出理想情况下显示屏有源区各像素单元的灰度值,然后根据该灰度值计算出在理想情况下各像素单元消耗的电流值,该电流值的总和即为当前显示画面电流消耗基准值。而需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流补偿值是输入信号比较器2实时检测到的该电流消耗与当前显示画面电流消耗基准值之间的差值。
由于该查找表中的信息,即ELVDD引线上的输入信号与当前显示画面电流消耗基准值之间的映射关系,与OLED器件的性能相关,所以该查找表中信息的具体数值是按照实际情况来进行计算的,计算的依据是OLED器件的亮度-电流-电压工作曲线,即OLED的IVL曲线。图4a和图4b分别示出了本发明实施例中的亮度-电压曲线及电流密度-电压曲线。
对于补偿电流的大小,可以根据IR drop的大小进行估算。整个有源区可以等效为图5所示的电阻网络图,其中Rh为水平方向的电源信号线的电阻,Rh=ρ(W/L),其中ρ为该层布线金属的方块电阻,W为线宽,L为线长。Rv为垂直方向的电源信号线的电阻,Rv=ρ(W/L),其中ρ为该层布线金属的方块电阻,W为线宽,L为线长。
在实际应用中,每一个OLED器件可以等效为一个理想电流源,串联在行扫描信号与列扫面信号的交点上,该理想电流源的电流信号大小为发光时OLED器件的特定亮度对应的电流值,用Ir表示红色子像素的电流值,Ig为绿色子像素的电流值,Ib为蓝色子像素的电流值,则IR drop最严重的位置发生在显示全白画面时,整个有源区的中心对称点的位置的附近。可以采用全白画面时有源区中心点的IR drop的电压值,作为ELVDD的补偿电压值,则在补偿时,ELVDD上的电压为ELVDD=ELVDD′+IR,其中ELVDD′为补偿前的电压,IR为补偿电压。
在本发明实施例中,处理器3可以采用可编程门列阵(FPGA)、IC芯片或者其他控制器器件实现,电压信号调制装置4可以采用直流-直流(DC-DC)电源实现。
基于图1至图5所示的包括显示屏和补偿显示屏有源区直流电压降的装置的显示装置,图6示出了依照本发明实施例的对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的方法流程图,该方法包括以下步骤:
步骤1:实时检测当前显示画面在显示屏有源区ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗,将检测到的该电流或电压消耗转化为数字信号;
步骤2:将该数字信号与当前显示画面的电流或电压消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流或电压补偿值;
步骤3:根据该电流或电压补偿值产生补偿电压,然后将该补偿电压反馈给显示屏的ELVDD引线,进而通过ELVDD总线施加至每个像素单 元,实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降的外部动态补偿。
其中,步骤1中所述当前显示画面在显示屏有源区ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗等于在当前显示画面下有源区各像素单元电流或电压消耗的总和,实时检测当前显示画面在显示屏有源区ELVDD总线上的电流或电压消耗是对当前显示画面下各像素单元电流或电压消耗的总和进行计算实现的。该步骤可以例如由比较器来实现。
步骤2可以例如由处理器实现,所述处理器具有随机存储器,该随机存储器中存储有预先基于ELVDD引线上的输入信号配置的查找表,该查找表至少包括输入信号与当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值之间的映射关系。所述ELVDD引线上的输入信号是来自显示屏的驱动集成电路的显示信号,所述处理器根据该显示信号计算出理想情况下各像素单元的灰度值,然后根据该灰度值计算出在理想情况下各像素单元消耗的电流或电压值,该电流或电压值的总和即为当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值。所述处理器将接收的数字信号与自身随机存储器所存储的当前显示画面的电流或电压消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流或电压补偿值,该电流或电压补偿值是所述输入信号比较器实时检测到的该电流或电压消耗与当前显示画面电流或电压消耗基准值之间的差值。
步骤3可以例如由电压信号调制器来实现。
当然,本发明实施例并不局限于此。可以由其他结构的电路来实现根据本发明实施例的对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的方法。例如,所述比较器、处理器和调制器可以合并为更少的、例如一个或两个单元,或者可以重新划分为更多个单元,同样实现对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的方法。再例如,存储查找表的随机存储器可以是其他类型的存储器,或者存在于处理器外部并可由处理器读取。
从上述实施例可以看出,本发明提供的对显示屏有源区直流电压降进行补偿的装置、方法以及含有该装置的显示装置,通过实时检测显示屏ELVDD引线上的驱动IC输入的显示信号,并根据该显示信号来调整反馈给显示屏ELVDD引线的补偿电压,使得不论显示屏有源区显示什么内容,反馈给显示屏ELVDD引线的补偿电压均能够随显示画面的变化而改变, 实现对显示屏有源区IR drop进行外部动态补偿,从而使显示屏有源区具有统一和稳定的ELVDD电压,进而有效地改善了显示系统的显示画质。
在上述实施例中,输入信号比较器实时检测的是当前显示画面在显示屏有源区ELVDD总线上的电流消耗,处理器将接收的数字信号与当前显示画面的电流消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电流补偿值。在实际应用中,输入信号比较器实时检测的也可以是当前显示画面在显示屏有源区ELVDD总线上的电压消耗,处理器将接收的数字信号与当前显示画面的电压消耗基准值进行比较,得到需要对当前显示画面进行补偿的电压补偿值。
以上所述的具体实施例,对本发明的目的、技术方案和有益效果进行了进一步详细说明,所应理解的是,以上所述仅为本发明的具体实施例而已,并不用于限制本发明,凡在本发明的精神和原则之内,所做的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
