Here, the optical characteristic may denote characteristics related to luminance values and color coordinates of a plurality of gray levels for each of red, green, and blue. A gray level may be from 0 to 255, based on 8 bits. According to an embodiment, the measurement gray levels may be gray levels (e.g., a 255 gray level, a 151 gray level, and a 51 gray level) selected from among a 0 gray level to a 255 gray level (256 gray levels) having an interval of 1, which are used by the display device 110, and the prediction gray levels may be gray levels (e.g., a 203 gray level, an 87 gray level, and a 35 gray level) selected from among the remaining gray levels.
In detail, operation S310 may be an operation by which the measurer 121 measures the optical characteristic of the display panel for the pre-determined at least one measurement gray level from among the plurality of gray levels, and operation S320 may be an operation by which the gamma data generator 122 generates the measurement gamma data for the measurement gray level, based on the optical characteristic of the measurement gray level.
According to an embodiment, the measurer 121 may pre-determine the at least one measurement gray level for measuring the optical characteristic of the display panel, from among 0 to 255 gray levels, and the measurer 121 may measure the optical characteristic of the display panel for a corresponding measurement gray level. For example, when the 255 gray level corresponds to the pre-determined measurement gray level, the measurer 121 may measure optical characteristics of a luminance value and color coordinates in the 255 gray level of the display panel, and the gamma data generator 122 may generate the measurement gamma data for the 255 gray level, based on the optical characteristics of the 255 gray level received from the measurer 121.
Operation S330 may be an operation by which the gamma data generator 122 generates the prediction gamma data for the at least one prediction gray level other than the measurement gray level from among the plurality of gray level, by using the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic.
According to an embodiment, when the optical characteristics of the plurality of display panels are measured by the measurer 121, the gamma data generator 122 may receive the data (hereinafter, optical characteristic data) for the optical characteristics of the plurality of display panels and configure the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic. Here, the optical characteristic data of the display panel may denote optical characteristic data of a same type of display panels. The accuracy of the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic may increase when the number of pieces of optical characteristic data of the plurality of display panels increases. The equation configured at this time may be an equation of at least a linear expression indicating a relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable.
Operation S340 may be an operation by which the gamma data generator 122 generates the gray level-wise gamma data, based on the measurement gamma data and the prediction gamma data. Details thereof will be described below with reference to accompanying drawings.
For the pre-determined measurement gray level, the measurer 121 may measure the optical characteristic of the display panel and generate the measurement gamma data, based the measurement value, and for the at least one prediction gray level other than the pre-determined measurement gray level from among the plurality of gray levels, the gamma data generator 122 may generate the prediction gamma data, based on the pre-generated gamma data. Here, the pre-generated gamma data may include both the measurement gamma data and/or the prediction gamma data. For example, the measurement gamma data for the 255 gray level may be generated when the 255 gray level is the measurement gray level, the prediction gamma data for the 203 gray level may be generated based on the prediction gamma data for the 255 gray level when the 203 gray level is the prediction gray level, the measurement gamma data for the 151 gray level may be generated by measuring an optical characteristic for the 151 gray level by the measurer 121 when the 151 gray level is the measurement gray level, the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic may be generated based on the measurement gamma data of the 255 gray level, the prediction gamma data of the 203 gray level, and the measurement gamma data of the 151 gray level when the 87 gray level is the prediction gray level, and the prediction gamma data of the 87 gray level may be generated based on the generated equation.
According to an embodiment, the gamma data generator 122 may use the prediction gamma data of the prediction gray level as final gamma data for the prediction gray level only when the prediction gamma data matches the pre-determined specification range. When the prediction gamma data of the prediction gray level does not match the pre-determined specification range, the measurer 121 may measure the optical characteristic of the display panel for the corresponding prediction gray level and the gamma data generator 122 may generate the final gamma data of the prediction gray level, based on the measurement value. In detail, operation S410 may be an operation by which the gamma data generator 122 generates the prediction gamma data for the at least one prediction gray level other than the measurement gray level from among the plurality of gray level, by using the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic.
In detail, the gamma data generator 122 may generate the prediction gamma data for the at least one prediction gray level other than the measurement gray level from among the plurality of gray level, by using the equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic (operation S410).
Operation S420 may be an operation of identifying whether the prediction gamma data for the prediction gray level matches the pre-determined specification range.
Operation S430 may be an operation of determining the prediction gamma data as the gamma data for the prediction gray level among the gray level-wise gamma data when the prediction gamma data for the prediction gray level matches the pre-determined specification range.
For example, when a luminance value of 100 nit is measured for the 255 gray level and color coordinates are (0.23, 0.38), and when the 203 gray level is included in the pre-determined prediction gray level, the prediction gamma data for the 203 gray level may be estimated based on the measurement gamma data for the 255 gray level, and may be determined as the gamma data of the 203 gray level based on a luminance value and color coordinates of the estimated prediction gamma data are within the pre-determined specification range.
Operation S441 may be an operation of generating the measurement gamma data for the prediction gray level, based on the optical characteristic measured for the prediction gray level when the prediction gamma data for the prediction gray level do not match the pre-determined specification range, and operation S442 may be an operation of generating the gamma data for the prediction gray level among the gray level-wise gamma data by comparing the measurement gamma data for the prediction gray level with target gamma data.
For example, when the luminance value of 100 nit is measured for the 255 gray level and the color coordinates are (0.23, 0.38), and when the 203 gray level is included in the pre-determined prediction gray level, the prediction gamma data for the 203 gray level may be estimated based on the measurement gamma data for the 255 gray level. When the luminance value and the color coordinates of the estimated prediction gamma data are not within the pre-determined specification range, the measurer 121 may generate the measurement gamma data by measuring the optical characteristic of the display panel for the 203 gray level and generate the gamma data of the 203 gray level by converting RGB data to match a target gamma data value through comparison with pre-stored target gamma data. Here, the RGB data may denote an RGB analog voltage value or an RGB digital code value.
Referring to a reference numeral 510 of
According to an embodiment, pieces of measurement gamma data of measurement gray levels that are measurement targets D512 from among a plurality of gray level values D511 may be pre-stored in a memory, and pieces prediction gamma data of prediction gray levels that are prediction targets D513 may be generated based on the stored pieces of measurement gamma data.
According to an embodiment, when the gamma data is generated from a high gray level to a low gray level from among the plurality of gray level values D511, the measurement gamma data or the prediction gamma data may be generated depending on whether a corresponding gray level belongs to the pre-determined measurement gray level or pre-determined prediction gray level. In this case, an equation indicating a correlation of optical characteristics of display panels may be generated based on pieces of gamma data of first to (N−1)th gray levels, and prediction gamma data of an Nth gray level may be generated based on the generated equation. Meanwhile, referring to a reference numeral 520 of
Here, according to an embodiment, estimation of prediction gamma data of an initial prediction gray level may be performed by including not only measurement gamma data of an initial measurement gray level (e.g., the 255 gray level), but also information about dark data related to a black voltage (i.e., the voltage to generate 0 gray level) and a voltage indicating characteristics of a display panel. The voltage indicating the characteristics of the display panel may be a voltage applied to one electrode of an organic light-emitting diode (“OLED”) that is a display element included in a pixel. For example, the OLED may include a pixel electrode and a common electrode facing the pixel electrode, and a first driving voltage ELVDD may be supplied to the pixel electrode and a second driving voltage ELVSS may be supplied to the common electrode. The voltage indicating the characteristics of the display panel may be the second driving voltage ELVSS applied to the common electrode.
A gray level to be measured and a gray level to be predicted may be changed. When the number of pieces of data for generating the equation increases, the accuracy of the equation increases, and thus the number of measurement gray levels may be decreased and the number of prediction gray levels may be increased. Accordingly, a gamma correction time may be effectively reduced.
The accuracy of the equation for generating prediction gamma data may be increased when the number of pieces of measurement gamma data increases, but considerable time and expenses may be consumed in generating final gamma data of a measurement gray level by comparing the measurement gamma data with target gamma data. Thus, in the disclosure, only a minimum number of pieces of measurement gamma data may be generated and prediction gamma data matching a pre-determined specification range may be generated to perform gamma correction of a display device.
According to an embodiment, a parameter value of an equation defining a relationship between a gray level and an optical characteristic may be adjusted according to a linear regression analysis technique that is a statistical technique. Here, independent variables may be pre-generated pieces of gamma data for a measurement gray level and a prediction gray level, and a dependent variable may be prediction gamma data.

In other words, a gamma data generator may generate measurement gamma data by receiving a value obtained by measuring, by a measurer, an optical characteristic of a display panel from a pre-determined measurement gray level, and change the measurement gamma data to target gamma data by changing RGB data including information about color coordinates and a luminance value according to a gray level through comparison with the target gamma data.
For example, when a 255 gray level is a measurement gray level, and a luminance value measured for the 255 gray level was 96 nit and color coordinates therefor were (0.25, 0.35), based on target gamma data being a luminance value of 100 nit and color coordinates of (0.27, 0.38) for the 255 gray level, measurement gamma data for the 255 gray level may be represented as RGB data (x, y, z) including information about the luminance value of 96 nit and the color coordinates of (0.25, 0.35), and values of x, y, and z may be appropriately changed through comparison with the luminance value of 100 nit and the color coordinates of (0.27, 0.38) for the target gamma data, thereby appropriately adjusting the RGB data according to the luminance value and color coordinates of the target gamma data.
In detail, according to an embodiment, pieces of gray level-wise measurement gamma data generated for a plurality of display panels may be accumulated for a certain period of time and stored in a memory (operation S810), an equation may be generated based on the pieces of measurement gamma data accumulated in the memory (operation S820), and prediction gamma data may be generated based on the generated equation (operation S830).

As described above, a luminance value and color coordinates for a gray level may be converted into RGB data for the gray level, and the RGB data may be data related to an RGB analog voltage value or a digital code.
Referring to
Here, the color coordinates needs to be the same in overall, and prediction gamma data of a next prediction gray level may be generated by using the RGB voltage values in the table D1020 as base data of linear regression analysis.
When measurement gamma data is generated, an RGB voltage value for a gray level is appropriately adjusted such that color coordinates of the gray level are the same as color coordinates of target gamma data and a luminance value of the gray level is within a desired luminance value range. A final RGB voltage value at this time may be gamma data for the gray level.
