This application is a U.S. National Stage entry, filed under 35 U.S.C § 371, of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2019/078081, filed Mar. 14, 2019, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201811269576.2, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on Oct. 29, 2018 and entitled “DISPLAY DEVICE AND REGULATION METHOD THEREFOR”, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The description herein provides only background information related to this application, but does not necessarily constitute the existing technology.
A general display principle of an exemplary display device is controlling progressive turn-on or turn-off of all pixels by using crisscrossed gate lines and data lines on a Thin Film Transistor (TFT) substrate, to realize ideal picture display. A gate drive signal and a data signal for controlling turn-on or turn-off of the pixels are sent by a control chip in the display device, and usually a Chip On Film (COF) needs to be configured to respectively transmit the gate drive signal and the data signal to the gate lines and the data lines on the TFT substrate. An exemplary processing method is a fan-out layout. The fan-out layout means that some wires connected to the gate lines and the data lines present a fan shape on the whole. Moreover, in a fan-out layout, lengths of wires on two sides of a fan-out area are far greater than those of wires in the middle of the fan-out area. Therefore, resistances of the wires on the two sides are far greater than those of the wires in the middle, resulting in severe waveform distortion of the gate drive signal or the data signal when transmitted on the wires on the two sides and generation of color shift. Further, light spots or dark spots (fan-out mura) present in the pixels controlled by the wires on the two sides of the fan-out area, affecting the display effect of the display device.

Please referring to
The display area 110 is provided with a plurality of data lines 111. As can be learned from
It should be understood that the display area 110 is further provided with a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of gate drive circuits configured to drive the gate lines. The gate drive circuits generate gating signals based on clock signals. The gating signals are gate line drive voltage signals. The function of the gating signals is to control write-in of color data by controlling a switch of a TFT, to further drive the display panel to display.
Specifically, as shown in
Further, the detection circuit is configured to detect resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line. Exemplarily, the detection circuit may detect values of the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line by detecting values of voltages on the first connection line and the second connection line. Typically, the resistances can be calculated by simulation using existing software. Exemplarily, simulated measurement can be performed by using resistance extraction software. Alternatively, the values of the resistances may be measured by measuring the lengths of the first connection line and the second connection line. The method is indicated by a formula of:
R=ρL/S,
where ρ is a resistivity of the connection line and is decided by an inherent property of the connection line, L is a length of the connection line, and S is a cross-sectional area of the connection line.
Generally, the source drive circuit 210 is configured to receive a color signal output by the control chip 220 and then generate a gating signal based on the clock signal. The gating signal is a signal used for driving a corresponding data line to be turned on or to be turned off. Further, an adjustable resistor 211 is integrated inside the source drive circuit 210. The display panel 100 is electrically connected to the adjustable resistor 211 inside the source drive circuit 210 via the connection line 121.
The control chip 220 is electrically connected to a plurality of source drive circuits 210 separately through functional pins and connection leads 221. The control chip 220 is configured to compare the resistances of the first connection line the second connection line and output a control signal according to a resistance comparison result. Specifically, the control chip 220 may be a T-CON. The T-CON is mainly configured to provide clock signals for the data lines 111 and gate lines in the display area 110. In this application, the control chip 220 is further configured to compare the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line, that is, a difference between the resistances of the first and second connection lines, output a control signal according to a resistance comparison result (a resistance difference), and transmit the control signal through the functional pin and the connection lead 221 to the source drive circuit 210. The source drive circuit 210 receives the control signal and then adjusts the resistance of the adjustable resistor 211, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area.
In the foregoing embodiment, resistances of traces in a fan-out area are detected and compared and a resistance of an adjustable resistor is adjusted according to a comparison result, to enable resistances of connection lines to be the same in the fan-out area, to further reduce an impedance difference caused by different lengths of the connection lines and further reduce a difference in transmission time delays of a gate drive signal or a data signal on the traces in the fan-out area. Therefore, the fan-out mura and color shift phenomena can be effectively avoided, thereby further enabling final display of a display panel to become more uniform.
Further, the adjustable resistor 211 may be a digital potentiometer. Correspondingly, a digital potential control circuit 212 configured to adjust a resistance of the digital potentiometer is integrated inside the source drive circuit 210. The digital potentiometer is a precise adjustable resistor, and a manner for the digital potential control circuit 212 to control the digital potentiometer is also a simple control manner. In this application, a quantity of the adjustable resistors 211 is one-to-one corresponding to a quantity of the connection lines 121. That is, an individual adjustable resistor 211 is configured for each wire in the fan-out area 120 in this application. In this way, the impedance of each connection line can be adjusted, thereby increasing flexibility of this application. Further, there are massive wires in the fan-out area 120, and therefore the quantity of the adjustable resistors 211 to be configured is quite large, resulting in that the adjustment is complex. Therefore, in this embodiment, several groups of resistances for adjustable resistors may be set in advance with respect to relationships between the lengths of the connection lines 121 in the fan-out area 120 and the resistances of the adjustable resistors for several models of display panels (for example, large-, middle-, or small-scale panel or a display panel of a typical size). In this way, a corresponding control circuit 212 directly selects, when adjustment is needed subsequently, among the several groups of resistances for adjustable resistors according to the models set in advance, and then adjusts the resistance. Therefore, the complexity of adjustment is reduced, so that the solution of this application is more flexible.
Further referring to
It should be understood that, specific descriptions of the display panel 100 and the drive circuit 200 may be referred to the relevant description in the foregoing embodiments, and details are not described again herein.
Still referring to
That the control chip 220 outputs a control signal according to a resistance comparison result is that the control chip 220 outputs a control signal according to a resistance comparison result and a display lightness. That is, the control signal output by the control chip 220 to the source drive circuit 210 may be a controls signal output after combining the resistance comparison result and the display lightness. Generally, the resistance of the adjustable resistor 211 adjusted merely according to a value of the resistance in the fan-out area 120 through simulated measurement may still have a difference with an actual resistance. Therefore, to further reduce the difference, the lightness sensor 300 is disposed on the fan-out area 120 in this application to detect a display lightness of the fan-out area 120, the value of the display lightness detected in real time is compared with the preset display lightness, then the control chip 220 provides a control signal according to a resistance comparison result and a display lightness, the source drive circuit 210 receives the control signal and then controls the digital potential control circuit inside to adjust the resistance of the adjustable resistor, to enable the impedances of the connection lines in the fan-out area 120 to be identical and to further enable display of the display panel to become more uniform.

In the foregoing embodiment, resistances of traces in a fan-out area are detected and compared, a display lightness of the fan-out area is detected, and a resistance of an adjustable resistor is adjusted according to the resistance comparison result and the display lightness, to enable resistances of connection lines to be the same in the fan-out area, to further reduce an impedance difference caused by different lengths of the connection lines and further reduce a difference in transmission time delays of a gate drive signal or a data signal on the traces in the fan-out area. Therefore, the fan-out mura and color shift phenomena can be effectively avoided, thereby further enabling final display of a display panel to become more uniform.
Referring to
Step S100: Detect resistances of connection lines in a fan-out area, where the connection lines may include a first connection line and a second connection line.
Specifically, additionally referring to
Further, referring to
Step S110: Measure trace lengths of the first connection line and the second connection line in the fan-out area.
Step S120: Calculate trace resistances according to the trace lengths.
Specifically, values of the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line may be measured by using the following formula:
R=ρL/S,
where ρ is a resistivity of the connection line and is decided by an inherent property of the connection line, L is a length of the connection line, and S is a cross-sectional area of the connection line.
It should be understood that the fan-out area 120 is further provided with a plurality of connection lines, and two of the connection lines are used as an example for description herein; this should not be understood as a further limitation to this application.
Step S200: Compare the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line.
Specifically, the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line are compared by using the control chip 220 in the display device 10. The control chip 220 may directly compare the values of the resistances, or may compare the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line by detecting values of voltages input to the first connection line and the second connection line.
Step S300: Adjust a resistance of an adjustable resistor according to a resistance comparison result, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area.
Specifically, referring to
Step S310: If the resistance of the first connection line is greater than that of the second connection line, control the resistance of the adjustable resistor that is connected to the second connection line to increase.
Specifically, according to the detected resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line, the resistances of the two connection lines are further compared. If the resistance of the first connection line is greater than that of the second connection line, the resistance of the adjustable resistor that is connected to the second connection line is controlled to increase. The process mainly includes: the control chip 220 outputs a control signal according to the comparison result and the source drive circuit receives the control signal and then controls the digital potential control circuit inside to adjust the resistance of the corresponding adjustable resistor. For example, the second connection line is a line part in a central area of the fan-out area 120 and the first connection line is a line part close to two ends of the fan-out area 120. A result obtained after detection and comparison certainly is that the impedance of the first connection line (long) is greater than that of the second connection line (short). At this time, it is only necessary to control the resistance of the adjustable resistor that is connected to the second connection line to increase to be the same as that of the first connection line. Similarly, the corresponding resistances of the other connection lines may also increase according to such method. There are massive wires in the fan-out area 120, and therefore the quantity of the adjustable resistors 211 to be configured is quite large, resulting in that the adjustment is complex. Therefore, in this embodiment, several groups of resistances for adjustable resistors may be set in advance with respect to relationships between the lengths of the connection lines 121 in the fan-out area 120 and the resistances of the adjustable resistors for several models of display panels (for example, large-, middle-, or small-scale display panel or a display panel of a typical size). In this way, a corresponding control circuit 212 directly selects, when adjustment is needed subsequently, among the several groups of resistances for adjustable resistors according to the models set in advance, and then adjusts the resistance. Therefore, the complexity of adjustment is reduced, so that the solution of this application is more flexible.
Further, problems such as a repeated comparison may exist in comparisons of two lines. For example, there are wires at two ends of the fan-out area 120 with the same length. After one of the two connection lines is compared with another wire, the other one of the two connection lines may be further compared with the another wire. In this case, wires with the same length or a wire on which comparison has been performed may be marked or screened, to further reduce complexity and unnecessary calculating process, thereby reducing costs and complexity.
Further, a uniform resistance may also be set for the connection lines. The uniform resistance may be set by using a resistance of the wire with the largest length in the fan-out area 120 as a reference. In this way, subsequent adjustment is performed merely according to the set resistance.
Step S320: If the resistance of the first connection line is equal to that of the second connection line, keep the resistance of the adjustable resistor unchanged.
Specifically, when the detected resistance of the first connection line is equal to that of the second connection line, the resistance of the adjustable resistor is kept unchanged.
Step S330: If the resistance of the first connection line is less than that of the second connection line, control the resistance of the adjustable resistor that is connected to the first connection line to increase.
Specifically, methods for detecting, comparing, and adjusting the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line may be referred to relevant description in step S310, with the difference in that this step concerns a situation in which the resistance of the first connection line is less than that of the second connection line and the resistance of the adjustable resistor that is connected to the first connection line needs to be increased. Details are not described again herein.
In the foregoing embodiment, resistances of connection lines in a fan-out area are detected and compared and a resistance of an adjustable resistor corresponding to a connection line with a smaller resistance is adjusted according to a comparison result, to enable resistances of connection lines to be the same in the fan-out area, to further reduce an impedance difference caused by different lengths of the connection lines and further reduce a difference in transmission time delays of a gate drive signal or a data signal on the traces in the fan-out area. Therefore, the fan-out mura and color shift phenomena can be effectively avoided, thereby further enabling final display of a display panel to become more uniform.
Referring to
Step S400: Detect a display lightness of a fan-out area.
Step S500: Compare the display lightness with a preset display lightness reference and output a lightness comparison result.
Specifically, in the fan-out area 120, lengths of the connection lines 121 are different, resulting in that impedances of the connection lines 121 in the fan-out area 120 cannot be identical and further resulting in occurrence of a fan-out mura. Therefore, when the fan-out mura appears in the fan-out area 120, the display lightness of the area is different from that of the display area 110. Specifically, when a light spot appears in the fan-out area 120, a value of the display lightness of the fan-out area 120 is greater than that of the display area 110. When a dark spot appears in the fan-out area 120, the value of the display lightness of the fan-out area 120 is less than that of the display area 110. Therefore, a value of the display lightness of the display area 110 during normal display is taken as a preset display lightness reference, that is, an ideal image display effect. The control chip 220 performs comparison for the display lightness of the fan-out area 120 and then outputs a corresponding lightness comparison result.
Step S600: The step of adjusting a resistance of an adjustable resistor according to a resistance comparison result, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area is adjusting a resistance of an adjustable resistor according to a resistance comparison result and the lightness comparison result, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area. That is, the adjustment of the resistance of the adjustable resistor performed by the source drive circuit 210 according to the resistance comparison result may be an adjustment made after combining the resistance comparison result and the display lightness. Generally, the resistance of the adjustable resistor 211 adjusted merely according to a value of the resistance in the fan-out area 120 through simulated measurement may still have a difference with an actual resistance. Therefore, to further reduce the difference, the lightness sensor 300 is disposed on the fan-out area 120 in this application to detect a display lightness of the fan-out area 120, the value of the display lightness detected in real time is compared with the preset display lightness, then the control chip 220 provides a control signal according to a resistance comparison result and a display lightness, the source drive circuit 210 receives the control signal and then controls the digital potential control circuit inside to adjust the resistance of the adjustable resistor, to enable the impedances of the connection lines in the fan-out area 120 to be identical and to further enable display of the display panel to become more uniform.
In the foregoing embodiment, resistances of traces in a fan-out area are detected and compared, a display lightness of the fan-out area is detected, and a resistance of an adjustable resistor is adjusted according to the resistance comparison result and the display lightness, to enable resistances of connection lines to be the same in the fan-out area, to further reduce an impedance difference caused by different lengths of the connection lines and further reduce a difference in transmission time delays of a gate drive signal or a data signal on the traces in the fan-out area. Therefore, the fan-out mura and color shift phenomena can be effectively avoided, thereby further enabling final display of a display panel to become more uniform.
Further referring to
Step S10: Detect resistances of connection lines in a fan-out area, where the connection lines include a first connection line and a second connection line.
Step S20: Compare the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line.
Step S30: Adjust a resistance of an adjustable resistor according to a resistance comparison result, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area.

Step S60: Adjust the resistance of the adjustable resistor according to the lightness comparison result, to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area.
It should be understood that descriptions of steps S10-S30 may be referred to relevant description of steps S100-S300 in the foregoing regulation method, and are not described in detail again herein. Further, the detection and comparison of the lightness in steps S40-S60 and the adjustment of the adjustable resistor may also be referred to relevant descriptions in the foregoing embodiments. The difference with the foregoing embodiments lies in that: in this embodiment, first the resistance of the adjustable resistor is adjusted according to the resistances, after the resistance of the adjustable resistor is adjusted, the display lightness of the fan-out area is detected, the detected display lightness is then compared with a preset display lightness reference, and the resistance of the adjustable resistor is dynamically adjusted according to a comparison result, so as to enable the resistances of the first connection line and the second connection line to be the same in the fan-out area.
In the foregoing embodiment, resistances of traces in a fan-out area are detected and compared, then a resistance of an adjustable resistor is adjusted according to a resistance comparison result, a display lightness of the fan-out area is detected after the resistance is adjusted, the detected display lightness is compared with a preset display lightness reference, and the resistance of the adjustable resistor is dynamically adjusted according to a comparison result, to enable resistances of connection lines to be the same in the fan-out area, to further reduce an impedance difference caused by different lengths of the connection lines and further reduce a difference in transmission time delays of a gate drive signal or a data signal on the traces in the fan-out area. Therefore, the fan-out mura and color shift phenomena can be effectively avoided, thereby further enabling final display of a display panel to become more uniform.
