Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a GIP type liquid crystal display device.

BACKGROUND

A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal panel equipped with a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines, a gate driving unit outputting gate signals to the gate lines and a source driving unit outputting data signals to the data lines. With the continuous technical development, various driving technologies with reduced costs, including the Dual-Gate technology and the Gate-In-Panel (GIP) technology, are applied in liquid crystal display products.

The dual-gate technology is a type of driving technology that reduces the quantity of data lines by half and doubles the quantity of gate lines, so that the quantity of source driving ICs is reduced by half and the quantity of gate driving ICs is doubled. Since the unit price of a gate driving IC is lower than that of a source driving IC, the total costs are reduced. However, the dual-gate technology may bring about a problem of undercharge of TFTs.

The GIP technology eliminates gate driving ICs to reduce costs by integrating the gate driving units in the peripheral region of the display area of the LCD panel. For further reduction of costs, some liquid crystal display products employ both the dual-gate technology and the GIP technology.

In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the display device may further include a gray scale voltage generator 700.

The gray scale voltage generator 700 is connected with the source driving unit 600 and provides it with a gamma reference voltage.

At least one embodiment of the present invention provides a display device. The clock generating unit of the display device is capable of providing K scan clock signals to the first driving subunit and K scan clock signals to the second driving subunit respectively according to different scan sequences. In the first scan sequence, the time sequence of the scan clock signals to scan the (2N)th row of gate line lags behind that of the scan clock signals to scan the (2N−1)th row of gate line by ½K of a cycle, while in the second scan sequence, the time sequence of the scan clock signals to scan the (2N−1)th row of gate line lags behind that of the scan clock signals to scan the (2N)th row of gate line by ½K of a cycle. In this way, the luminance of odd/even numbered pixel units can be kept consistent and vertical muras can be reduced so as to achieve improved display effect.

In order to explain embodiments of the present invention in more detail, an example with K=2 is as follows.

The clock generating unit 300 provides scan clock signals SL1 and SL2 as well as the first scan triggering signal STVL to the first driving subunit and provides the scan clock signals SR1 and SR2 as well as the second scan triggering signal STVR to the second driving subunit. The first driving subunit and the second driving subunit drive corresponding gate lines, as can be seen from the schematic diagram of FIG. 2.

In the first scan sequence, the time sequence of individual signals is as shown in FIG. 3; the phase of the second scan triggering signal STVR lags behind that of the first scan triggering signal STVL by ¼ of a cycle. The phase of the scan clock signal SL1 lags behind that of the first scan triggering signal STVL by ½ of a cycle, the phase of the scan clock signal SR1 lags behind that of second scan triggering signal STVR by ½ of a cycle, the phase of the scan clock signal SR1 lags behind that of the scan clock signal SL1 by ¼ of a cycle, and the phase of the scan clock signal SR2 lags behind that of the scan clock signal SL2 by ¼ of a cycle.

In the second scan sequence, the time sequence of individual signals is as shown in FIG. 4; the phase of the first scan triggering signal STVL lags behind that of the second scan triggering signal STVR by ¼ of a cycle. The phase of the scan clock signal SR1 lags behind that of the second scan triggering signal STVR by ½ of a cycle, the phase of the scan clock signal SL1 lags behind that of first scan triggering signal STVL by ½ of a cycle, the phase of the scan clock signal SL1 lags behind that of the scan clock signal SR1 by ¼ of a cycle, and the phase of the scan clock signal SL2 lags behind that of the scan clock signal SR2 by ¼ of a cycle.

Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the setting of the scan sequence to carry out scan will be described in the following with a frame as a cycle.

For example, the display unit 100 includes a plurality of pixel units arranged in n rows and p columns. Correspondingly, the display unit 100 further includes a plurality of gate lines G1 to G2n, a plurality of data lines D1 to Dp/2 and n*p pixels PX. The individual pixel units are formed at the intersections of the gate lines G1 to G2n and the data lines D1 to Dp/2 to display images. As for the (t)th row of pixel units, the display of images is controlled by the gate lines G2t−1 and G2t; the display in odd numbered pixel units, such as 1, 3, 5 . . . , among the p pixel units in the (t)th row is controlled by the G2t−1 and the display in even numbered pixel units, such as 2, 4, 6 . . . , among the p pixel units in the (t)th row is controlled by the G2t. In FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the odd numbered pixel units in the 1st row are marked as 1 to indicate that those pixel units are driven by the gate line G1, while the odd numbered pixel units in the 2nd row are marked as 2 to indicate that those pixel units are driven by G2, and so on.

In a liquid crystal display device that employs both the dual-gate technology and the GIP technology, the odd and even numbered frames are of the same scan sequence. In an example with gate lines G1 to G8, the scan sequence is as follows:

Odd numbered frames: G1→G2→G3→G4→G5→G6→G7→G8

Even numbered frames: G1→G2→G3→G4→G5→G6→G7→G8

This may cause a problem that odd numbered pixel units are undercharged while even numbered pixel units are charged sufficiently so that the luminance of pixel units in odd numbered columns is inconsistent with that of pixel units in even numbered columns, resulting in vertical muras.

By contrast, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, odd numbered frames are set in the first scan sequence, while even numbered frames are set in the second scan sequence as below:

Odd numbered frames: G1→G2→G3→G4→G5→G6→G7→G8

Even numbered frames: G2→G1→G4→G3→G6→G5→G8→G7

In at least one embodiment of the present invention, at odd numbered frames, gate lines G1 to G8 are scanned in the first scan sequence to make the odd numbered pixel units undercharged and even numbered pixel units charged sufficiently, while, at even numbered frames, gate lines G1 to G8 are scanned in the second scan sequence to make odd numbered pixel units charged sufficiently and even numbered pixel units undercharged. The luminance of odd numbered pixel units is kept consistent with that of even numbered pixel units with time, so that the problem of vertical muras is solved to improve display effect.

What are described above is related to the illustrative embodiments of the present invention only and not limitative to the scope of the present invention, the scopes of the present invention are defined by the accompanying claims.

The present application claims priority of China patent application No. 201310755459.8 filed on Dec. 31, 2013, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety as part of the present disclosure.
