This application claims priority from and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0107880, filed on Aug. 24, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.
Exemplary embodiments relate to an image display. More particularly exemplary embodiments relate to a display apparatus and a method of driving the display apparatus.
A display apparatus includes a display panel and a display panel driving apparatus.
The display panel includes a gate line, a data line, and a pixel defined by the gate line and the data line.
The display panel driving apparatus includes a gate driving part, a data driving part, and a timing controlling part. The gate driving part outputs a gate signal to the gate line. The data driving part outputs a data signal to the data line. The timing controlling part controls a timing of the gate driving part and a timing of the data driving part.
In order to prevent degradation of a liquid crystal in the display panel, the display panel driving apparatus may drive the display panel using an inversion method. Specifically, the data driving part outputs, to the data line of the display panel, a data signal of a first polarity and a data signal of a second polarity which is inverted to the first polarity. The inversion method may include a column inversion method and a dot inversion method.
When the inversion method is changed, a rapid luminance change is generated in the display panel. For example, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, a charge time period, in which a data voltage of the data signal is charged in the pixel, is rapidly decreased. Thus, a luminance of the display panel is rapidly decreased.
In addition, when a frame frequency of an image is changed, a rapid luminance change is generated in the display panel. For example, when the frame frequency of the image is changed from about 60 Hz to about 144 Hz, the charge time period is also rapidly decreased, and thus, the luminance of the display panel is rapidly decreased.

The data driving part may change the transition time of the data signal from the fifth time to the first time after the fifth period, and may maintain the transition time of the data signal as the first time during a sixth period following the fifth period, and the sixth period may include M (M is a natural number) frame periods.
In an exemplary embodiment, in response to a change of the frame frequency from a first frequency to a second frequency higher than the first frequency, the data driving part may change the transition time of the data signal from a first time to a second time less than the first time.
The data driving part may maintain the transition time of the data signal as the second time during a seventh period, and the seventh period may include P (P is a natural number) frame periods.

In response to a change of the frame frequency from a second frequency to a first frequency lower than the first frequency, the data driving part may change the transition time of the data signal from a first time to a fourth time greater than the first time.

According to the present inventive concept, a rapid change of a luminance of a display apparatus may be prevented. Therefore, a flicker phenomenon may be prevented, and thus display quality of the display apparatus may be improved.
The foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the claimed subject matter.
The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the inventive concept, and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate exemplary embodiments of the inventive concept, and, together with the description, serve to explain principles of the inventive concept.
In the following description, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of various exemplary embodiments. It is apparent, however, that various exemplary embodiments may be practiced without these specific details or with one or more equivalent arrangements. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid unnecessarily obscuring various exemplary embodiments.
In the accompanying figures, the size and relative sizes of layers, films, panels, regions, etc., may be exaggerated for clarity and descriptive purposes. Also, like reference numerals denote like elements.
When an element or layer is referred to as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element or layer, it may be directly on, connected to, or coupled to the other element or layer or intervening elements or layers may be present. When, however, an element or layer is referred to as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element or layer, there are no intervening elements or layers present. For the purposes of this disclosure, “at least one of X, Y, and Z” and “at least one selected from the group consisting of X, Y, and Z” may be construed as X only, Y only, Z only, or any combination of two or more of X, Y, and Z, such as, for instance, XYZ, XYY, YZ, and ZZ. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
Although the terms first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers, and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers, and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer, and/or section from another element, component, region, layer, and/or section. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer, and/or section discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer, and/or section without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.
Spatially relative terms, such as “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” “above,” “upper,” and the like, may be used herein for descriptive purposes, and, thereby, to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the drawings. Spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of an apparatus in use, operation, and/or manufacture in addition to the orientation depicted in the drawings. For example, if the apparatus in the drawings is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the exemplary term “below” can encompass both an orientation of above and below. Furthermore, the apparatus may be otherwise oriented (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and, as such, the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms, “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Moreover, the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” and/or “including,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure is a part. Terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless expressly so defined herein.

The gate driving part 130, the data driving part 140, and the timing controlling part 150 may be defined as a display panel driving apparatus for driving the display panel 110.
The gate driving part 130 generates gate signals GS in response to a vertical start signal STV and a first clock signal CLK1 provided from the timing controlling part 150, and outputs the gate signals GS to the gate lines GL.
The data driving part 140 receives image data DATA from the timing controlling part 150, generates the data signal DS based on the image data DATA, and outputs the data signal DS to the data line DL in response to a horizontal start signal STH and a second clock signal CLK2 provided from the timing controlling part 150.

When the inversion method is changed, the data driving part 140 may change the slew rate and the transition time of the data signal DS. Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the data driving part 140 may increase the slew rate of the data signal DS and may decrease the transition time of the data signal DS. In addition, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the data driving part 140 may decrease the slew rate of the data signal DS and may increase the transition time of the data signal DS.

When the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2, which is less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during a first period P1. The first period P1 may include H (H is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the first period P1 may include three frame periods.
After the first period P1, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the first period P1, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during a second period P2 following the first period P1. The second period P2 may include I (I is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the second period P2 may include three frame periods.
After the second period P2, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the second period P2, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 140 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during a third period P3 following the second period P2. The third period P3 may include J (J is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the third period P3 may include three frame periods.
When the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4 greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during a fourth period P4. The fourth period P4 may include K (K is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fourth period P4 may include three frame periods.
After the fourth period P4, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the fourth period P4, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during a fifth period P5 following the fourth period P4. The fifth period P5 may include L (L is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fifth period P5 may include three frame periods.
After the fifth period P5, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the fifth period P5, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 140 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during a sixth period P6 following the fifth period P5. The sixth period P6 may include M (M is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the sixth period P6 may include three frame periods.

A change or a maintenance of the inversion method is determined (step S120). Specifically, since the timing controlling part 150 outputs the inversion control signal ICS to the data driving part 140, the timing controlling part 150 may determine the change or the maintenance of the inversion method.
When the inversion method is maintained, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method or the dot inversion method (step S130). Specifically, when the inversion method is maintained, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS is maintained as “HLL”, which is the first level, and thus, the data driving part 140 may control the data signal DS so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1.
When the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the second time T2 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S140). Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2 less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during the first period P1. The first period P1 may include H (H is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the first period P1 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the third time T3 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S150). Specifically, after the first period P1, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the first period P1, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during the second period P2 following the first period P1. The second period P2 may include I (I is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the second period P2 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S160). Specifically, after the second period P2, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the second period P2, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 140 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the third period P3 following the second period P2. The third period P3 may include J (J is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the third period P3 may include three frame periods.
When the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fourth time T4 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S170). Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4, which is greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during the fourth period P4. The fourth period P4 may include K (K is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fourth period P4 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fifth time T5 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S180). Specifically, after the fourth period P4, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the fourth period P4, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during the fifth period P5 following the fourth period P4. The fifth period P5 may include L (L is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fifth period P5 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S190). Specifically, after the fifth period P5, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL” which is the first level. Thus, after the fifth period P5, the data driving part 140 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 140 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 140 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the sixth period P6 following the fifth period P5. The sixth period P6 may include M (M is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the sixth period P6 may include three frame periods.
According to the present exemplary embodiment, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the rapid decrease of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. In addition, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the rapid increase of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. Therefore, a flicker phenomenon may be prevented, and thus display quality of the display apparatus 100 may be improved.
The display apparatus 200 according to the present exemplary embodiment illustrated in
Referring to
The display panel 110 receives the data signal DS from the data driving part 240 to display an image.
The gate driving part 130, the data driving part 240 and the timing controlling part 250 may be defined as a display panel driving apparatus for driving the display panel 110.
The gate driving part 130 generates the gate signals GS in response to the vertical start signal STV and the first clock signal CLK1 provided from the timing controlling part 250, and outputs the gate signals GS to the gate lines GL.
The data driving part 240 receives the image data DATA from the timing controlling part 250, generates the data signal DS based on the image data DATA, and outputs the data signal DS to the data line DL in response to the horizontal start signal STH and the second clock signal CLK2 provided from the timing controlling part 250.
The data driving part 240 controls the slew rate of the data signal DS according to the slew rate control signal SRCS provided from the timing controlling part 250. Thus, the data driving part 240 controls the transition time in which the data signal DS transits from a low level to a high level, according to the slew rate control signal SRCS. The greater the slew rate control signal SRCS, the greater the slew rate of the data signal DS may be. Thus, the greater the slew rate control signal SRCS, the shorter the transition time of the data signal DS may be.
When a display mode of the image is changed, the data driving part 240 may change the slew rate and the transition time of the data signal DS. Specifically, when the display mode is changed from a normal mode to a FreeSync™ mode, the data driving part 240 may increase the slew rate of the data signal DS, and may decrease the transition time of the data signal DS. In addition, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the data driving part 240 may decrease the slew rate of the data signal DS and may increase the transition time of the data signal DS. Here, when the display mode is the normal mode, a frame frequency of the image may be a first frequency, and the display mode is the FreeSync™ mode, the frame frequency of the image may be a second frequency greater than the first frequency. For example, the first frequency may be about 60 Hz, and the second frequency may be about 144 Hz.
The timing controlling part 250 receives the image data DATA and the control signal CON from the outside. The control signal CON may include the horizontal synchronous signal Hsync, the vertical synchronous signal Vsync and the clock signal CLK. The timing controlling part 250 generates the horizontal start signal STH using the horizontal synchronous signal Hsync and outputs the horizontal start signal STH to the data driving part 240. In addition, the timing controlling part 250 generates the vertical start signal STV using the vertical synchronous signal Vsync and outputs the vertical start signal STV to the gate driving part 130. In addition, the timing controlling part 250 generates the first clock signal CLK1 and the second clock signal CLK2 using the clock signal CLK, outputs the first clock signal CLK1 to the gate driving part 130, and outputs the second clock signal CLK2 to the data driving part 240. In addition, the timing controlling part 250 outputs the slew rate control signal SRCS to the data driving part 240.
The timing controlling part 250 receives a mode determination signal MDS from an outside. The mode determination signal MDS may be a signal for selecting the normal mode or the FreeSync™ mode. The timing controlling part 250 includes a mode change determining part 255. The mode change determining part 255 receives the mode determination signal MDS. The mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed or not. Specifically, the mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode. In addition, the mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode.
Referring to
When the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2, which is less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during a seventh period P7. The seventh period P7 may include P (P is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the seventh period P7 may include three frame periods.
After the seventh period P7, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the seventh period P7, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during an eighth period P8 following the seventh period P7. The eighth period P8 may include Q (Q is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eighth period P8 may include three frame periods.
After the eighth period P8, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the eighth period P8, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 240 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the display mode is changed. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during a ninth period P9 following the eighth period P8. The ninth period P9 may include R (R is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the ninth period P9 may include three frame periods.
When the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4, which is greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during a tenth period P10. The tenth period P10 may include S (S is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the tenth period P10 may include three frame periods.
After the tenth period P10, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the tenth period P10, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during an eleventh fifth period P11 following the tenth period P10. The eleventh period P11 may include T (T is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eleventh period P11 may include three frame periods.
After the eleventh period P11, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the eleventh period P11, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 240 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during a twelfth period P12 following the eleventh period P11. The twelfth period P12 may include U (U is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the twelfth period P12 may include three frame periods.

A change or a maintenance of the display mode is determined (step S220). Specifically, the timing controlling part 250 includes the mode change determining part 255. The mode change determining part 255 receives the mode determination signal MDS. The mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed or not. Specifically, the mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode. In addition, the mode change determining part 255 determines whether the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode.
When the display mode is maintained, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S230). Specifically, when the display mode is maintained as the normal mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS is maintained as “HLL” which is the first level, and thus, the data driving part 240 may control the data signal DS so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1.
When the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the second time T2 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S240). Specifically, when the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2, which is less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, as compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during the seventh period P7. The seventh period P7 may include P (P is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the seventh period P7 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the third time T3 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S250). Specifically, after the seventh period P7, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the seventh period P7, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during the eighth period P8 following the seventh period P7. The eighth period P8 may include Q (Q is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eighth period P8 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S260). Specifically, after the eighth period P8, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL” which is the first level. Thus, after the eighth period P8, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 240 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the display mode is changed. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the ninth period P9 following the eighth period P8. The ninth period P9 may include R (R is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the ninth period P9 may include three frame periods.
When the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fourth time T4 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S270). Specifically, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4, which is greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during the tenth period P10. The tenth period P10 may include S (S is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the tenth period P10 period P4 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fifth time T5 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S280). Specifically, after the tenth period P10, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the tenth period P10, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during the eleventh period P11 following the tenth period P10. The eleventh period P11 may include T (T is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eleventh period P11 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S290). Specifically, after the eleventh period P11, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the eleventh period P11, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 240 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the display mode is changed. The data driving part 240 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the twelfth period P12 following the eleventh period P11. The twelfth period P12 may include U (U is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the twelfth period P12 may include three frame periods.
According to the present exemplary embodiment, when the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the rapid decrease of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. In addition, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the rapid increase of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. Therefore, a flicker phenomenon may be prevented, and thus display quality of the display apparatus 200 may be improved.
The display apparatus 300 according to the present exemplary embodiment illustrated in
Referring to
The display panel 110 receives the data signal DS from the data driving part 340 to display an image.
The gate driving part 130, the data driving part 340 and the timing controlling part 350 may be defined as a display panel driving apparatus for driving the display panel 110.
The gate driving part 130 generates the gate signals GS in response to the vertical start signal STV and the first clock signal CLK1 provided from the timing controlling part 350, and outputs the gate signals GS to the gate lines GL.
The data driving part 340 includes functions of the data driving part 140 according to the previous exemplary embodiment illustrated in
Thus, the data driving part 340 receives the image data DATA from the timing controlling part 350, generates the data signal DS based on the image data DATA, and outputs the data signal DS to the data line DL in response to the horizontal start signal STH and the second clock signal CLK2 provided from the timing controlling part 350.
In addition, the data driving part 340 drives the display panel 110 in the inversion method according to the inversion control signal ICS provided from the timing controlling part 350. The inversion method may include the column inversion method and the dot inversion method.
When the inversion method is changed, the data driving part 340 may change the slew rate and the transition time of the data signal DS. Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the data driving part 340 may increase the slew rate of the data signal DS and may decrease the transition time of the data signal DS. In addition, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the data driving part 340 may decrease the slew rate of the data signal DS and may increase the transition time of the data signal DS.
In addition, the data driving part 340 controls the slew rate of the data signal DS according to the slew rate control signal SRCS provided from the timing controlling part 350. Thus, the data driving part 340 controls the transition time in which the data signal DS transits from a low level to a high level, according to the slew rate control signal SRCS. The greater the slew rate control signal SRCS, the greater the slew rate of the data signal DS may be. Thus, the greater the slew rate control signal SRCS, the shorter the transition time of the data signal DS maybe.
When the display mode of the image is changed, the data driving part 340 may change the slew rate and the transition time of the data signal DS. Specifically, when the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the data driving part 340 may increase the slew rate of the data signal DS and may decrease the transition time of the data signal DS. In addition, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the data driving part 340 may decrease the slew rate of the data signal DS and may increase the transition time of the data signal DS. Here, when the display mode is the normal mode, the frame frequency of the image may be the first frequency, and the display mode is the FreeSync™ mode, the frame frequency of the image may be the second frequency greater than the first frequency. For example, the first frequency may be about 60 Hz, and the second frequency may be about 144 Hz.
The timing controlling part 350 includes functions of the timing controlling part 150 according to the previous exemplary embodiment illustrated in
Thus, the timing controlling part 350 receives the image data DATA and the control signal CON from an outside. The control signal CON may include the horizontal synchronous signal Hsync, the vertical synchronous signal Vsync and the clock signal CLK. The timing controlling part 350 generates the horizontal start signal STH using the horizontal synchronous signal Hsync and outputs the horizontal start signal STH to the data driving part 340. In addition, the timing controlling part 350 generates the vertical start signal STV using the vertical synchronous signal Vsync and outputs the vertical start signal STV to the gate driving part 130. In addition, the timing controlling part 350 generates the first clock signal CLK1 and the second clock signal CLK2 using the clock signal CLK, outputs the first clock signal CLK1 to the gate driving part 130, and outputs the second clock signal CLK2 to the data driving part 340. In addition, the timing controlling part 350 outputs the inversion control signal ICS and the slew rate control signal SRCS to the data driving part 340.
In addition, the timing controlling part 350 receives the mode determination signal MDS from an outside. The mode determination signal MDS may be a signal for selecting the normal mode and the FreeSync™ mode. The timing controlling part 350 includes a mode change determining part 355. The mode change determining part 355 is substantially the same as the mode change determining part 255 of the previous exemplary embodiment illustrated in
A method of driving the display apparatus 300 of
Thus, referring to
The change or the maintenance of the inversion method is determined (step S120). Specifically, since the timing controlling part 350 outputs the inversion control signal ICS to the data driving part 340, the timing controlling part 350 may determine the change or the maintenance of the inversion method.
When the inversion method is maintained, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method or the dot inversion method (step S130). Specifically, when the inversion method is maintained, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS is maintained as “HLL”, which is the first level, and thus the data driving part 340 may control the data signal DS so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1.
When the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the second time T2 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S140). Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2, which is less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during the first period P1. The first period P1 may include H (H is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the first period P1 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the third time T3 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S150). Specifically, after the first period P1, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the first period P1, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during the second period P2 following the first period P1. The second period P2 may include I (I is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the second period P2 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the dot inversion method (step S160). Specifically, after the second period P2, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the second period P2, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 140 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the third period P3 following the second period P2. The third period P3 may include J (J is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the third period P3 may include three frame periods.
When the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fourth time T4 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S170). Specifically, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from ‘HLL’ which is the first level to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4, which is greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during the fourth period P4. The fourth period P4 may include K (K is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fourth period P4 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fifth time T5 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S180). Specifically, after the fourth period P4, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the fourth period P4, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during the fifth period P5 following the fourth period P4. The fifth period P5 may include L (L is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the fifth period P5 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven using the column inversion method (step S190). Specifically, after the fifth period P5, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the fifth period P5, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 340 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the inversion method is changed. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the sixth period P6 following the fifth period P5. The sixth period P6 may include M (M is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the sixth period P6 may include three frame periods.
In addition, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode or the FreeSync™ mode (step S210). For example, the data driving part 340 may drive the display panel 110 in the normal mode. In this case, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, the data driving part 340 may control the data signal DS so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1.
The change or the maintenance of the display mode is determined (step S220). Specifically, the timing controlling part 350 includes the mode change determining part 355. The mode change determining part 355 receives the mode determination signal MDS. The mode change determining part 355 determines whether the display mode is changed or not. Specifically, the mode change determining part 355 determines whether the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode. In addition, the mode change determining part 355 determines whether the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode.
When the display mode is maintained, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S230). Specifically, when the display mode is maintained as the normal mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS is maintained as “HLL”, which is the first level, and thus, the data driving part 340 may control the data signal DS so that the transition time of the data signal DS is maintained as the first time T1.
When the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the second time T2 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S240). Specifically, when the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “HHH”, which is the second level. Thus, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the second time T2, which is less than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly decreased, compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the second time T2 during the seventh period P7. The seventh period P7 may include P (P is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the seventh period P7 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the third time T3 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S250). Specifically, after the seventh period P7, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHH”, which is the second level, to “HHL”, which is the third level. Thus, after the seventh period P7, the data driving part 240 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the second time T2 to the third time T3 between the first time T1 and the second time T2. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the third time T3 during the eighth period P8 following the seventh period P7. The eighth period P8 may include Q (Q is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eighth period P8 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the FreeSync™ mode (step S260). Specifically, after the eighth period P8, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HHL”, which is the third level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the eighth period P8, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the third time T3 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 340 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the display mode is changed. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the ninth period P9 following the eighth period P8. The ninth period P9 may include R (R is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the ninth period P9 may include three frame periods.
When the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fourth time T4 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S270). Specifically, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “HLL”, which is the first level, to “LHL”, which is the fourth level. Thus, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the first time T1 to the fourth time T4, which is greater than the first time T1. Therefore, although the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, the luminance of the display panel 110 is not rapidly increased, compared to the prior art to which the present inventive concept is not applied. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fourth time T4 during the tenth period P10. The tenth period P10 may include S (S is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the tenth period P10 period P4 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the fifth time T5 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S280). Specifically, after the tenth period P10, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHL”, which is the fourth level, to “LHH”, which is the fifth level. Thus, after the tenth period P10, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fourth time T4 to the fifth time T5 between the first time T1 and the fourth time T4. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the fifth time T5 during the eleventh period P11 following the tenth period P10. The eleventh period P11 may include T (T is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the eleventh period P11 may include three frame periods.
The data signal DS is controlled so that the transition time of the data signal DS becomes the first time T1 and the display panel 110 is driven in the normal mode (step S290). Specifically, after the eleventh period P11, the level of the slew rate control signal SRCS may be changed from “LHH”, which is the fifth level, to “HLL”, which is the first level. Thus, after the eleventh period P11, the data driving part 340 may change the transition time of the data signal DS from the fifth time T5 to the first time T1. Therefore, the data driving part 340 may gradually recover the transition time of the data signal DS to the transition time before the display mode is changed. The data driving part 340 may maintain the transition time of the data signal DS as the first time T1 during the twelfth period P12 following the eleventh period P11. The twelfth period P12 may include U (U is a natural number) frame periods. For example, the twelfth period P12 may include three frame periods.
According to the present exemplary embodiment, when the inversion method is changed from the column inversion method to the dot inversion method, rapid decrease of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. In addition, when the inversion method is changed from the dot inversion method to the column inversion method, rapid increase of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. In addition, when the display mode is changed from the normal mode to the FreeSync™ mode, rapid decrease of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. In addition, when the display mode is changed from the FreeSync™ mode to the normal mode, rapid increase of the luminance of the display panel 110 may be prevented. Therefore, a flicker phenomenon may be prevented, and thus, display quality of the display apparatus 300 may be improved.
