The switch control module 206 is configured to output a first enable signal to the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 when receiving a startup power supply signal from the startup power supply circuit 201, and the first enable signal enables the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 to start operation. The timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 output a trigger signal to the first flip-flop 204 after timing a blank screen time under the control of the first enable signal, to trigger the first flip-flop 204 to output a second enable signal to the display circuit 205, and the second enable signal enables the display circuit 205 to start operation. Further, the switch control module 206 is further configured to, upon receiving the second enable signal, output a third enable signal to the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 to turn off the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203.
By adding a switch control module 206, the driving circuit 20 provided in the embodiment of the present application may automatically stop the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 after the blank screen time of the startup ends, thereby saving the power consumption of the driving circuit 20 and increasing the service life of the display device.
The blank screen time is greater than or equal to 130 milliseconds. That is, in order to ensure the startup timing and not cause problems of an abnormal display screen, a blank screen time is added when the display device is turned on, so as to ensure that the thin film transistors of the display device are in a turned-off state.
When the startup power supply circuit 201 starts operating, the startup power supply signal is a high level, the first enable signal is a high level, the second enable signal is a high level, and the display circuit 205 starts operating.
When the display circuit 205 starts operating, the second enable signal is a high level, the third enable signal is a low level, and the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 are turned off.
It should be noted that when the startup power supply circuit 201 starts operating, the startup power supply circuit 201 outputs the startup power supply signal to the power supply input terminal a1. After receiving the startup power supply signal, the switch control module 206 outputs a first enable signal at the enable signal output terminal a3, and the first enable signal enables the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 to start operating. The timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 output a trigger signal to the first input terminal of the first flip-flop 204 after timing a blank screen time, to trigger the first flip-flop 204 to output the second enable signal to the display circuit 205, and the second enable signal enables the display circuit 205 to start operating. Then, when the feedback signal input terminal a2 of the switch control module 206 receives the second enable signal, the enable signal output terminal a3 of the switch control module 206 outputs the third enable signal to the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 to turn off the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203. After the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 are turned off, the clear terminal of the first flip-flop 204 switches on the startup power supply signal, so that the output terminal of the first flip-flop 204 continuously outputs a fourth enable signal to maintain the operation of the display circuit 205.
Specifically, referring to
A first input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is electrically connected to the power supply input terminal a1. A second input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is electrically connected to an output terminal of the first inverter 2062. An output terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is electrically connected to a first input terminal of the AND gate 2064. An input terminal of the first inverter 2062 is electrically connected to the power supply input terminal a1. An input terminal of the second inverter 2063 is electrically connected to the feedback signal input terminal a2. An output terminal of the second inverter 2063 is electrically connected to a second input terminal of the AND gate 2064. An output terminal of the AND gate 2064 is electrically connected to the enable signal output terminal a3.
It may be understood that the startup power supply circuit 201, the power supply input terminal a1, the first inverter 2062, the second flip-flop 2061, the timer 202, the frequency divider 203, the first flip-flop 204, and the display circuit 205 are electrically connected sequentially to form a first circuit. The feedback signal input terminal a2, the second inverter 2063, the second flip-flop 2061, the timer 202, and the frequency divider 203 are electrically connected sequentially to form a second circuit.
In the first circuit, when the startup power supply circuit 201 starts to operate, the startup power supply circuit 201 outputs the startup power supply signal to the power supply input terminal a1. At this time, startup of all paths have been completed, and the startup power supply signal changes from a low potential to a high potential, that is, from a state “0” to a state “1”. The startup power supply signal is outputted to the first input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061, and the first input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is at a high potential, that is, in the state “1”. The startup power supply signal is outputted to the second input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 via the first inverter 2062, and the second input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is at a low potential. At this time, since the first input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is at the high potential and the second input terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is at the low potential, the output terminal of the second flip-flop 2061 is at a high potential, that is, in the state “1”. At this time, the first enable signal outputted from the enable signal output terminal a3 is a high potential, that is, the state “1”. The first enable signal is outputted to the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203, and the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 start operating. The timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 output the trigger signal to the first input terminal of the first flip-flop 204 after timing a blank screen time, to trigger the first flip-flop 204 to output the second enable signal to the display circuit 205, and the second enable signal enables the display circuit 205 to start operating. At this time, the second enable signal is a high potential, that is, in the state “1”.
In the second circuit, the second enable signal is outputted as a feedback signal to the feedback signal input terminal a2. The second enable signal is outputted to the second input terminal of the AND gate 2064 through the second inverter 2063, and the second input terminal of the AND gate 2064 is at a low potential, that is, in the state “0”. At this time, since the second input terminal of the AND gate 2064 is at the low potential, that is, in the state “0”, this causes the output terminal of the AND gate 2064 to also be at a low potential, that is, in the state “0”, which causes the enable signal output terminal a3 to be at the low potential, that is, in the state of “0”, to output the third enable signal to the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203 to turn off the timer 202 and the frequency divider 203.
