FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 1, the electronic device 100 includes a pixel compensation circuit 110 and a display panel 120. The pixel compensation circuit 110 receives a pixel signal S1 and outputs an adjusted pixel signal S2. The pixel signal S1 includes a plurality of sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb), where Gr is, for example, a red sub-pixel gray-scale value, Gg is, for example, a green sub-pixel gray-scale value, and Gb is, for example, a blue sub-pixel gray-scale value, but not limited thereto. The pixel compensation circuit 110 determines the compensated gray-scale value of the sub-pixel gray-scale value according to a difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) and a first threshold TH01. For example, it is determined that if the red sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and/or the blue sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb need to be compensated (i.e., the compensated gray-scale value is greater than 0), the compensated sub-pixel gray-scale value includes the red sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and/or the blue sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb. The compensated sub-pixel gray-scale value may be at least one sub-pixel gray-scale value among sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb), but not limited thereto.


The display panel 120 receives the adjusted pixel signal S2 output by the pixel compensation circuit 110. The display panel 120 displays an image screen according to the adjusted pixel signal S2. The adjusted pixel signal S2 may be a compensated pixel signal or an uncompensated pixel signal (i.e., the compensated gray-scale value is equal to 0, which is equal to the pixel signal S1).


In this embodiment, the pixel compensation circuit 110 is provided in, for example, a timing controller or a source driver, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The pixel compensation circuit 110 may be designed by using a hardware description language (HDL) or any other circuit design methods well known to those skilled in the art, and may be a circuit structure implemented by using a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), or an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.



FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of an image screen displayed by a display panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the display panel 120 receives the adjusted pixel signal S2 output by the pixel compensation circuit 110 to display the image screen 200. In this embodiment, the image screen 200 includes a region R1 and a region R2. The region R1 encloses the region R2, and the region R1 includes a sub-region 210, a sub-region 230, a sub-region 250, and a sub-region 270. The region R1 is, for example, an image region where each sub-pixel gray-scale value is 51, where the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of the pixel P1 and the pixel P3 are (51, 51, 51) respectively. The pixel P1 may be any pixel in the sub-region 210, and the pixel P3 may be any pixel in the sub-region 230. The pixel signal S1 may be provided to the region R2 before being compensated by the pixel compensation circuit 110, for example to display a single color, such as an image region that displays green, where the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of the pixel signal S1 provided to the pixel P2 before compensation are (0, 255, 0). The pixel P2 may be any pixel in the region R2.


In order to reduce the problem that the pixel signal of the display region R2 affects the pixel signal of the sub-region 210 and/or the sub-region 230 and affects the display quality, the pixel compensation circuit 110 may compensate the pixel signal of the pixel P2 in the display region R2. For example, the pixel compensation circuit 110 may adjust the sub-pixel gray-scale value of the pixel P2 to (X1, 255, X1), where X1 is the compensated gray-scale value. In an embodiment, the compensated gray-scale value X1 may be a fixed value. That is to say, no matter what the sub-pixel gray-scale value is before compensation, the compensated gray-scale value is all the same, that is, X1.


Alternatively, in an embodiment, the compensated gray-scale value may also be determined according to the magnitude of the sub-pixel gray-scale value. FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of the present disclosure, that is, a schematic diagram of a look-up table (LUT) of the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation and the compensated gray-scale value. Please refer to FIG. 3, the look-up table 300 presents the correspondence between the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation and the compensated gray-scale value. The sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation includes, for example, 0, 1 to 255, and the compensated gray-scale value includes, for example, X1, X2 to X255. In the embodiment of FIG. 2, the compensated gray-scale value may also be determined according to the look-up table. For example, when the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation is 0, the compensated gray-scale value is X1; when the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation is 1, the compensated gray-scale value is X2, and so on. When the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation is 255, the compensated gray-scale value is X256.


The following describes how the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines the compensated gray-scale value of the sub-pixel according to the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) and the first threshold TH01.


In the embodiment of FIG. 2, when the sub-pixel gray-scale value before compensation is less than or equal to the first threshold TH01, and when the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value and the sub-pixel gray-scale value on the adjacent two sides in the horizontal direction is greater than or equal to the second threshold TH02, the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines to compensate the sub-pixels and determines the compensated gray-scale value. In an embodiment, the first threshold TH01 is, for example, 100, and the second threshold TH02 is, for example, 10, but not limited thereto. Taking Gr among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of the pixel P2 as an example, if the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr=0 before compensation, which is less than the first threshold TH01, and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg of the pixel P2 is 255 and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of another pixel on the left side is 0, as the differences are 0 and 255, and the larger of the difference (255) is greater than the second threshold TH02, the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines to compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr, and determines the compensated gray-scale value to be X1 according to the look-up table 300. Take the Gb among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of the pixel P2 as an example. If the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb before compensation is 0, which is less than the first threshold TH01, and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb and the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg of the pixel P2 is 255 and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb and Gr among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of another pixel on the right side is 0, as the differences are 0 and 255, and the larger of the difference (255) is greater than the second threshold TH02, the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines to compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb, and determines the compensated gray-scale value to be X1 according to the look-up table 300. Take Gg among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of the pixel P2 as another example. If the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg before compensation Gg=255, which is greater than the first threshold TH01, then the pixel compensation circuit 110 will not compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg. In other words, the compensated gray-scale value is 0, so the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg is still 255. Therefore, the compensated sub-pixel gray-scale values of the pixel P2 are (X1, 255, X1).



FIG. 4A shows a schematic diagram of a pixel on a display panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 4A, the display panel 120 includes at least one pixel 400. The pixel 400 includes a red sub-pixel 122, a green sub-pixel 124, and a blue sub-pixel 126, but is not limited thereto. Please refer to FIG. 2 at the same time. The pixel P2 in FIG. 2 may be equivalent to the pixel 400. Before compensation, the gray-scale values displayed by the green sub-pixel 124 and the blue sub-pixel 126 are quite different. Therefore, the difference between the data voltages to be written to the data line D1 (corresponding to the green sub-pixel 124) and the data line D2 (corresponding to the blue sub-pixel 126) is also large, as shown by the two arrows 410 in FIG. 4A. Since the difference between the data voltages written in the data line D1 and the data line D2 is relatively large, the pixel P1 and/or the pixel P3 will be affected. That is, when the display panel 120 displays the image screen 200, if the gray-scale value of the region R2 is not compensated, the display quality of the sub-region 210 and/or the sub-region 230 might be affected.



FIG. 4B shows a schematic diagram of a pixel on a display panel according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 4B. In FIG. 4B, the gray-scale value of the sub-pixels in the display region R2 is compensated by the gray-scale compensation method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. For example, increasing the data voltage written into the data line D2 may reduce the difference between the data voltages written into the data line D1 and the data line D2, as shown by the two arrows 420 in FIG. 4B. Therefore, the pixel compensation circuit 110 may compensate the pixels P2 in the display region R2. Accordingly, when the display panel 120 displays the image screen 200, it is possible to reduce the chance for the pixel signals of the display region R2 to affect the pixel signals of the sub-region 210 and/or the sub-region 230, thus preventing the display quality from being affected.



FIG. 5 shows a corresponding relationship diagram between pixel gray-scale and brightness according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where the curve 510 is the brightness curve of the electronic device when viewed from a side perspective, and the curve 520 is the brightness curve of the electronic device when viewed from a front perspective. Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 5. In FIG. 2, the pixel compensation circuit 110 adjusts the sub-pixel gray-scale value according to the compensated gray-scale value, where the sum of the compensated gray-scale value and the sub-pixel gray-scale value may be less than or equal to the reference gray-scale value to prevent the display quality from being affected. The reference gray-scale value is, for example, the RG point as shown in FIG. 5, and which, for example, corresponds to the gray-scale value 64, but not limited thereto.



FIG. 6 shows a schematic diagram of a pixel on a display panel according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 7 shows a corresponding curve diagram of gray-scale value and data voltage according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 6, and FIG. 7, the display panel 120 includes a plurality of pixels, such as a pixel 400_1, a pixel 400_2, and a pixel 400_3. In this embodiment, the same data line is electrically connected to sub-pixels located in different pixel columns. Taking the data line D3 as an example, in the pixel row N1, the data line D3 is electrically connected to the green sub-pixel 124_1 on its right side, and in the pixel row N2, the data line D3 is electrically connected to the red sub-pixel 122_2 on its left side. In the pixel row N3, the data line D3 is electrically connected to the green sub-pixel 124_3 on its right side.


When the display panel 120 is to display a green screen, for example, the gray-scale value of the green sub-pixel is 128, the gray-scale value of the red sub-pixel and the gray-scale value of the blue sub-pixel are 0, and the data voltages written into the data line D3 correspond to the green sub-pixel 124_1, the red sub-pixel 122_2 and the green sub-pixel 124_3 in sequence. Therefore, the data voltage written into the data line D3 will be significantly different, which is about 2.73 volts as shown in FIG. 7. Therefore, if the charging capability of the driving circuit for the data line is insufficient, the display quality of the display screen will be affected.


Therefore, in this embodiment, the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines the compensated gray-scale value of the sub-pixels according to the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) and the first threshold TH01. For example, when the display panel 120 is to be displayed in green and the gray-scale value is 128, the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of one pixel before compensation are (0, 128, 0). Take the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr as an example, the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr before compensation is less than the first threshold TH01 (for example, 100), the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg is 128, and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr and Gb among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of another pixel on the left side is 0, as the differences are 0 and 128, and the larger of the difference (128) is greater than the second threshold TH02 (e.g., 10), the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines to compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gr. For example, the compensated gray-scale value may be 16. Take the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb as another example, the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb before compensation is Gb=0, which is less than the first threshold TH01 (for example, 100), the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb and the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg is 128, and the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb and Gr among the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb) of another pixel on the right side is 0, as the differences are 0 and 128, and the larger of the difference (128) is greater than the second threshold TH02 (for example, 10), the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines to compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gb. For example, the compensated gray-scale value may be 16. Take the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg as another example. The sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg before compensation is Gg=128, which is greater than the first threshold TH01 (for example, 100). Therefore, the pixel compensation circuit 110 will not compensate the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg. In other words, the compensated gray-scale value is 0, so the sub-pixel gray-scale value Gg is still 128. Therefore, when the display panel 120 is to be displayed in green, the compensated sub-pixel gray-scale values are (16, 128, 16). Similarly, when the display panel 120 is to display a red display screen or a blue display screen, the pixel compensation circuit 110 may perform the same processing, so as to solve the problem of display quality degradation of the display panel.


Therefore, the data voltage written into the data line D3 may be switched from the data voltage corresponding to the green sub-pixel gray-scale value 128 to the data voltage corresponding to the red sub-pixel gray-scale value 16. Referring to FIG. 7, it can be seen that the difference between the data voltages is about 1.5 volt. Therefore, the difference between the data voltages of the compensated sub-pixel gray-scale values is small, which makes it possible to prevent the display quality of the display screen from being affected when the driving circuit has insufficient charging capability for the data lines.



FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of steps of a driving method for an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 8, in step S100, the pixel compensation circuit 110 receives the pixel signal S1. The pixel signal S1 includes a plurality of sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb), where Gr is a red sub-pixel gray-scale value, Gg is a green sub-pixel gray-scale value, and Gb is a blue sub-pixel gray-scale value. In step S110, the pixel compensation circuit 110 determines the compensated gray-scale value of the sub-pixel gray-scale value according to the sub-pixel gray-scale values (Gr, Gg, Gb), respectively. In step S120, the pixel compensation circuit 110 compensates the sub-pixel gray-scale value according to the compensated gray-scale value to output the adjusted pixel signal S2. The sum of the compensated gray-scale value and the sub-pixel gray-scale value may be less than or equal to the reference gray-scale value. The reference gray-scale value is, for example, the RG point in FIG. 5, and which, for example, corresponds to the gray-scale value 64. In step S130, the pixel compensation circuit 110 drives the display panel 120 to display the image screen 200 according to the adjusted pixel signal S2.


To sum up, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the pixel compensation circuit determines the compensated gray-scale value of the sub-pixel according to the difference between the sub-pixel gray-scale values and the first threshold. Therefore, the compensated gray-scale values of different sub-pixel gray-scale values may be determined through a pixel compensation circuit with low cost, so as to improve the display quality of the image screen.


Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure, but not to limit them.
