According to at least one embodiment of the described technology, it is possible to enhance the display quality of a display device by substantially removing a ghosting phenomenon or a shading phenomenon which is caused by charging-type coupling of the display device.
Since higher-quality images may be displayed as the resolution of display devices is increased, it is desirable to increase the resolution of display devices. As the resolution of a display device is increased, the time available to charge each pixel with a corresponding data voltage is decreased and the charging rate of each pixel is reduced, which may result in charging-type blurring. In particular, when the polarity of the data voltage is inverted, the time available to charge the data voltage to a target data voltage may be insufficient, and the charging rate of each pixel may therefore be reduced.
Further, a phenomenon termed ghosting may occur in which a data voltage is applied to a previous row is applied to the current row due to signal delay.
Further, a phenomenon termed shading may occur in which a data voltage of the following row is applied to the current row due to signal delay.
The described technology will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the described technology are shown. As those skilled in the art would realize, the described embodiments may be modified in various different ways, all without departing from the spirit or scope of the described technology.
Hereinafter, a display device and a driving method thereof according to an exemplary embodiment of the described technology will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
First, a display device according to an exemplary embodiment will be described with reference to
Referring first to
The display panel 300 may be a display panel which is included in various flat panel displays (FPDs), such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display, or an electrowetting display (EWD).
The display panel 300 includes a plurality of gate lines G1 to Gn, a plurality of data lines D1 to Dm, and a plurality of pixels PXs which are connected to the gate lines G1 to Gn and the data lines D1 to Dm.
The gate lines G1 to Gn may transfer gate signals, and may extend in a substantially row direction and be substantially parallel to each other. The data lines D1 to Dm may transfer data voltages, and may extend in a substantially column direction and be substantially parallel to each other.
The pixels PXs may be arranged in a substantially matrix form. Each pixel PX may include at least one switching element connected to the corresponding gate lines G1 to Gn and the corresponding data lines D1 to Dm and at least one pixel electrode connected to the switching element. The switching element may include at least one thin film transistor and is turned on or turned off depending on the gate signals transferred by the gate lines G1 to Gn to selectively transfer the data voltage transferred by the data lines D1 to Dm to the pixel electrode. Each pixel PX may display an image with a luminance depending on the data voltage applied to the pixel electrode.
Each pixel PX displays one of primary colors (spatial division) or each pixel PX alternately displays the primary colors over time (temporal division), such that desired colors may be recognized by the spatial and temporal sum of the displayed primary colors. An example of the primary colors may include three primary colors, such as red, green, and blue. A plurality of adjacent pixels PX displaying different primary colors may together form one set (referred to as a dot). The dot may display a white image.
The gate driver 400 receives a gate control signal CONT1 from the signal controller 600 and generates gate signals which are a combination of a gate-on voltage Von and a gate-off voltage Voff capable of turning on and turning off the switching elements of the pixels PX based on the transferred gate control signal CONT1. The gate control signal CONT1 includes a scanning start signal STV which instructs a scanning start and at least one clock signal CPV which controls an output period of the gate-on voltage Von, and the like. The gate driver 400 is connected to the gate lines G1 to Gn of the display panel 300 to apply the gate signals to the gate lines G1 to Gn.
Referring to
The data driver 500 receives a data control signal CONT2 and output image signals DAT from the signal controller 600. The data driver 500 selects a gray voltage corresponding to each output image signal DAT, thereby converting the output image signal DAT into a data voltage which is an analog data signal. The output image signal DAT, which is a digital signal, has a defined number of values (or grays). The data control signal CONT2 includes a horizontal synchronization start signal which indicates a transmission start of the output image signal DAT of a pixel PX of one row, at least one data load signal TP and a data clock signal which represents an instruction to apply the data voltage to the data lines D1 to Dm, and the like. The data control signal CONT2 may further include an inversion signal that inverts the polarity of the data voltage with respect to a common voltage Vcom (referred to as the polarity of the data voltage). The data driver 500 is connected to the data lines D1 to Dm of the display panel 300 to apply data voltages Vd to the corresponding data lines D1 to Dm.
Unlike the embodiment illustrated in
The signal controller 600 receives an input image signal IDAT and an input control signal ICON which controls the display thereof, from an external graphic processing unit (not illustrated) (or graphic processor), and the like. The signal controller 600 appropriately processes the input image signal IDAT based on the input control signal (ICON) to convert the input image signal IDAT into the output image signal DAT. The signal controller 600 generates the gate control signal CONT1, the data control signal CONT2, and the like, based on the input image signal IDAT and the input control signal ICON. The signal controller 600 transfers the gate control signal CONT1 to the gate driver 400 and the data control signal CONT2 and the processed output image signal DAT to the data driver 500.

The memory 651 may include at least two line memories which may store the input image signals IDATs for each row. When a current pixel row, used to compensate for the input image signal IDAT, is set to be an N-th (N is a natural number) row, the memory 651 may store the data of an input image signal IDAT of an (N−1)-th row which is a previous row and the data of an input image signal IDAT of the N-th row.
The memory 651 may transfer the stored data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row and the stored data of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row to the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653.
The coupling index CX calculator 652 stores or calculates the coupling index CX which represents the degree of charging-type coupling between the adjacent rows. At the time of calculating the coupling index CX, the coupling index CX may be calculated by using an interpolation method.
The coupling index CX may vary depending on delay occurrence factors of the data voltages and the gate signals. For example, the coupling index CX may depend on the degree of charging-type coupling based on the position of the pixels PX within the display panel 300 and the structure of the display panel 300. The coupling index CX may be determined by displaying a reference pattern on the display and then measuring the actual degree of coupling.
The coupling index CX may be a negative number, a positive number, or 0.
The detailed method of calculating the coupling index CX will be described below.
The coupling index CX calculator 652 may transfer the calculated coupling index CX to the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653.
Referring to
Each lookup table of the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 stores compensation values for some grays or all the grays of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row.
Referring to
When the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 includes a lookup table corresponding to the case in which the coupling index CX is 0, the compensation value of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row in the corresponding lookup table may be the same as that of the original input image signal IDAT.
The compensation value for grays which are not stored in each lookup table LUT_P and LUT_N may be obtained by a calculation method, such as various interpolation methods. Similarly, the lookup tables for the coupling indices CX in which the lookup tables LUT_P and LUT_N are not prepared may be calculated by various interpolation methods using the compensation values of the adjacent lookup tables LUT_P and LUT_N.
The three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 receives the coupling index CX from the coupling index calculator 652, receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row and the data of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row from the memory 651, and receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row input from a source external to the signal controller 600 to obtain the compensation values for the input image signals IDAT of the corresponding pixels PX from the lookup tables LUT_P and LUT_N.
The three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 may transfer the compensation value for the input image signal IDAT of the pixel PX of the N-th row to the signal compensator 654.
The signal compensation unit 654 may compensate for and process the input image signal IDAT of the pixels PX of the N-th row by using the compensation value received from the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 to generate the output image signal DAT.
The output image signal DAT obtained by processing the compensated input image signal IDAT is input to the data driver 500 and the data driver 500 converts the output image signal DAT to generate the data voltages and output the generated data voltages to the display panel 300.
According to an exemplary embodiment, the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 includes a plurality of lookup tables LUT_P and LUT_N depending on the coupling indices CX which relies on the position of the charged pixel PX within the display panel 300 and the degree of coupling for each position. The compensation values of each lookup table LUT_P and LUT_N vary depending on the difference in the data between the input image signals IDAT of the adjacent rows. Therefore, when the image is displayed by converting the compensated input image signal IDAT into the data voltage Vd by using the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653, the charging-type coupling between the adjacent rows due to the signal delay depending on the position of pixels PX of the display panel 300 may be substantially removed and the degradation in image quality, such as the charging-type blurring caused by the insufficient charging rate of the corresponding pixels PX, may be substantially prevented.
The effect and the driving method of the display device according to an exemplary embodiment will be described with reference to
Next, the driving method of the display device according to an exemplary embodiment will be described. First, the signal controller 600 receives the input image signal IDAT and the input control signal ICON from an external source and then generates and processes the compensated input image signal to convert the input image signal IDAT into the output image signal DAT. The controller also generates the gate control signal CONT1, the data control signal CONT2, and the like. The signal controller 600 transmits the gate control signal CONT1 to the gate driver 400 and the data control signal CONT2 and the output image signal DAT to the data driver 500.
The data driver 500 receives the output image signal DAT for the pixels PX of one row and receives the data control signal CONT2 from the signal controller 600. Depending on the data control signal CONT2, the data driver 500 selects the gray voltage corresponding to each output image signal DAT to convert the output image signal DAT into the data voltages Vd which are the analog data signal and then applies the data voltages Vd to the corresponding data lines D1 to Dm.
The gate driver 400 applies the gate-on voltage Von to the gate lines G1 to Gn depending on the gate control signal CONT1 received from the signal controller 600 to turn-on the switching elements connected to the gate lines G1 to Gn. Next, the data voltages Vd applied to the data lines D1 to Dm are applied to the corresponding pixels PX through the turned on switching elements.
As such, when the gate-on voltage Von is applied to the gate lines G1 to Gn, the switching elements connected to the gate lines G1 to Gn are turned on and the data voltages Vd applied to the data lines D1 to Dm are applied to the corresponding pixels PX through the turned on switching elements.
In more detail, referring to
As illustrated in
As illustrated in
As described above, the signal processor 650 uses the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 to compensate for the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row and output a compensated data voltage Vd(N)′, such that the targeted black as indicated by the arrow in
As illustrated in
As illustrated in
As described above, the signal processor 650 uses the three-dimensional lookup table unit 653 to compensate for the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row and outputs the compensated data voltage Vd(N)′, such that the shading phenomenon may be substantially prevented.
As such, the image of one frame may be displayed by applying the gate-on voltage Von to all the gate lines G1 to Gn and applying the data signal to the all the pixels PXs.
A next frame starts after one frame ends and the state of the inversion signal applied to the data driver 500 is controlled so that the polarity of the data voltage Vd applied to each pixel PX is opposite to the polarity in the previous frame. In this case, the polarity of the data voltage Vd flowing through one of the data lines D1 to Dm may be periodically changed or the polarities of the data voltages Vd applied to pixel rows may also be different from each other, even within one frame, depending on the characteristics of the inversion signal.
According to another exemplary embodiment, the memory 651 included in the signal processor 650 may include a frame memory, instead of a line memory. According to embodiments, in the compensation for substantially removing the shading phenomenon, in order to compensate for the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row, when referring to the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row, which is the next row, the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row may also be changed by the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N+2)-th row. Therefore, in order to compensate for the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row which is the current row, by referring to only the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row, the charging-type coupling compensation may not be complete. Therefore, the shading phenomenon may be substantially completely removed by compensating for the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row by referring to the input image signal IDAT of all of the subsequent rows through the frame memory of the memory 651.
Next, a method of calculating the coupling index CX in the driving method of the display device according to an exemplary embodiment will be described with reference to
Since the signal delay varies depending on the RC values of the gate lines G1 to Gn and the data lines D1 to Dm, the coupling index CX may vary depending on the distance from each of the data driver 500 and the gate driver 400 to the corresponding pixel PX. Further, the degree of signal delay may vary depending on the structure of the display panel 300 and therefore the coupling index CX needs to be finely tuned to the individual characteristics of the display panel 300.
The coupling index CX may be calculated based on, for example, the following Equation 1.
Cdx=Ldx×α(Dn)
Cgx=Lgx×β(Gn)
CX=Cdx−Cgx Equation 1
Referring to
In the above Equation 1, α(Dn) and β(Gn) are functions which tune the coupling index CX so as to meet the characteristics of the display panel 300, in which Dn may represent the row number of the pixel PX from the data driver 500 and Gn may represent the column number of the pixel PX from the gate driver 400. α(Dn) and β(Gn) may each be one-dimensional functions.
α(Dn) and β(Gn) for tuning the coupling index CX may vary depending on the characteristics of the display panel 300. In order to obtain α(Dn) and β(Gn) for tuning, a reference pattern may be displayed on the display panel 300 and the color uniformity generated by the charging-type coupling may be measured.
The structure of the display panel 300 will be described with reference to
Referring to
The pixels which represent the same primary color R, G, and B may be disposed in one pixel array. For example, a pixel column of red pixels R, a pixel column of green pixels G, and a pixel column of blue pixels B may be alternately disposed. The data lines Dj, D(j+1), . . . may be each disposed in each pixel array and the gate lines G1, G(i+1), . . . may each be disposed in each pixel row, but the above exemplary embodiments are not limited thereto.
The pixels R, G, and B which are disposed in one pixel array to represent the same primary color may be connected to any one of two data lines Dj, D(j+1), . . . , which are adjacent to each other. In particular, as illustrated in
The adjacent data lines Dj, D(j+1), . . . , may be applied with data voltages which have opposite polarities to each other. The data voltages may have polarities which are inverted in each frame.
Therefore, the pixels R, G, and B which are adjacent to each other in a column direction may be applied with the data voltages having opposite polarities to each other and the pixels R, G, and B which are adjacent to each other in one pixel row may be applied with data voltages having opposite polarities to each other, such that the pixels R, G, and B may be driven in a substantially 1×1 dot inversion form. That is, even though the pixels R, G, and B are driven in a column inversion form in which the data voltages which are applied to the data lines Dj, D(j+1), . . . , maintain the same polarity for one frame, dot inversion driving may be realized.
As such, α (Dn) and β (Gn) may be defined based on the results obtained by the display characteristics of the color uniformity or the color blurring after the image of the reference pattern is displayed, and the coupling index CX may be tuned based on the defined α (Dn) and β (Gn).
Hereinafter, the display device and the driving method thereof according to an exemplary embodiment will be described with reference to
Referring to
The descriptions of the memory 651 and the coupling index CX calculator 652 are the same as those described in the above-mentioned exemplary embodiment and therefore the same descriptions thereof will be omitted.
The memory 651 may transfer the stored data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row and the stored data of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row to the GV converter 655.
The GV converter 655 receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row and the data of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row from the memory 651, receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row input from a source external to the signal controller 600, and converts the gray G of the data into a voltage V. This is briefly referred to as a GV conversion.
For the GV conversion, the GV converter 655 may include a conversion lookup table. The conversion lookup table is a one-dimensional lookup table and may be defined depending on a function between the data voltage applied to the display panel 300 and the gray. The function between the data voltage and the gray may vary depending on the characteristics of the display panel 300, for example, depending on a voltage-luminance graph (VT curve) or a gamma characteristic of a liquid crystal in the case of an LCD.
Referring again to
Vt=V(N)-CX×(V N−1)-V(N))(when CX>0) Equation 2
Vt=V(N)-CX×(V(N+1))-V(N))(when CX>0) Equation 3
In the above Equations 2 and 3, V(N) is the voltage V obtained by converting the input image signal IDAT of the N-th row, V(N−1) is the voltage V obtained by converting the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row, and V(N+1) is the voltage V obtained by converting the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row. Since the ghosting phenomenon may occur when the coupling index CX is a positive number, the compensation voltage Vt may be calculated depending on the above Equation 2 and since the shading phenomenon may occur when the coupling index CX is a negative number, the compensation voltage Vt may be calculated depending on the above Equation 3.
The VG converter 657 receives the compensation voltage Vt from the compensation voltage generator 656 and converts the received compensation voltage Vt into the gray G. This is briefly referred to as the VG conversion.
For the VG conversion, the VG converter 657 may include the conversion lookup table and the conversion lookup table may be the same as the lookup table which is included in the GV converter 655 as illustrated in
The VG converter 657 may output the converted gray V as the compensated image signal IDAT′.
According to an exemplary embodiment, the GV converter 655, the compensation voltage generator 656, and the VG converter 657 correspond to the signal compensator 654 of
Next, the operation of the signal processor 650 illustrated in
First, the coupling index calculator 652 calculates the coupling index CX for the corresponding pixel PX (S10).
Next, the GV converter 655 receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N−1)-th row and the data of the input image signal IDAT of the N-th-row from the memory 651 and receives the data of the input image signal IDAT of the (N+1)-th row from the an external source (S11).
Next, the GV converter 655 converts the gray G of the received data into the voltage V depending on the conversion lookup table LUT_GV (S12).
Next, the compensation voltage generator 656 receives the voltage converted by the GV converter 655 and receives the coupling index CX calculated by the coupling index calculator 652 to generate the compensation voltage Vt (S13).
Next, the VG converter 657 receives the compensation voltage Vt from the compensation voltage generator 656 and converts the received compensation voltage Vt into the gray G based on the conversion lookup table LUT_VG (S14). In this case, the conversion lookup table LUT_VG may be the same as the conversion lookup table LUT_GV of the GV converter 655.
Next, the gray G converted by the VG converter 657 is output as the compensated image signal IDAT′ (S15).
While the described technology has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
