The present invention relates to the field of liquid crystal display, and more particularly to a DC voltage conversion circuit, a DC voltage conversion method and a liquid crystal display device.
The Liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD) is one of the most widely used flat panel display device, the liquid crystal panel is a core component of liquid crystal display device. Generally, the liquid crystal panel is constituted of a color filter substrate (CF Substrate), a thin film transistor array substrate (TFT Array Substrate), and a liquid crystal layer (Liquid Crystal Layer) disposed between the two substrates. Generally, an array substrate and a CF substrate are provided with pixel electrodes and common electrodes. When voltage is applied to the pixel electrodes and the common electrodes, an electric field is generated in the liquid crystal layer which determines the orientation of the liquid crystal molecules, so as to adjust the polarization of the light incident to the liquid crystal layer, so that the liquid crystal panel displays an image.
In the conventional art, when the TFT-LCD is driven, a variety of voltages are input to the TFT-LCD, the voltages include a power supply voltage (VDD), a constant high voltage (VGH), and a constant low voltage (VGL). Among them, VGH and VGL correspond with smaller currents, which are generally generated by charge pumps which are low-cost.
