The present disclosure generally relates to a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel, and more particularly, to an LCD panel adapted to operate at a high frame rate; and the present disclosure also relates to an LCD device comprising the LCD panel.
An LCD has advantages of portability, low power consumption, and low radiation. Therefore, the LCD has been widely used in various information products such as TV sets, notebooks, computers, mobile phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs).
In a high-fineness LCD device, when the scanning lines are applied scanning signals, the gates connected to the scanning lines may be charged. Due to a large number of gates in the high-fineness LCD device, the charging time available for each of the gates becomes relatively short. If the high-fineness LCD device is further demanded for a higher frame rate, the charging time of the gates is seriously insufficient.

At this time, because the charging scanning line 11 located in the same pixel unit row as the discharging scanning line 12 has completed the scanning and keeps at a zero potential, the pixel electrode is discharged.

A scanning pulse signal of a high level is inputted by the scan driver 15 into the charging scanning line N+1 and the charging scanning line N+3 simultaneously. Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+1 and the charging scanning line N+3 are turned on, and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units.

Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+2 and the charging scanning line N+4 are turned on; and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units. Moreover, because the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the discharging scanning line N and the discharging scanning line N+2 are turned on, the data voltages of the pixel units corresponding to the charging scanning line N and the charging scanning line N+2 are discharged after having been maintained for the two time frames t1 and t2.
Within the scanning time frame t4, both the charging scanning line N+2 and the charging scanning line N+4 complete the scanning and keep at a low level. A scanning pulse signal of a high level is inputted by the scan driver 15 into the charging scanning line N+3 and the charging scanning line N+5 as well as the discharging scanning line N+1 and the discharging scanning line N+3 simultaneously. Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+3 and the charging scanning line N+5 are turned on; and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units. Moreover, because the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the discharging scanning line N+1 and the discharging scanning line N+3 are turned on, the data voltages of the pixel units corresponding to the charging scanning line N+1 and the charging scanning line N+3 are discharged after having been maintained for the two scanning time frames t2 and t3.

A scanning pulse signal of a high level is inputted by the scan driver 15 into the charging scanning line N+5 and the charging scanning line N+7 as well as the discharging scanning line N+3 and the discharging scanning line N+5 simultaneously. Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+5 and the charging scanning line N+7 are turned on, and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units. Moreover, because the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the discharging scanning line N+3 and the discharging scanning line N+5 are turned on, the data voltages of the pixel units corresponding to the charging scanning line N+3 and the charging scanning line N+5 are discharged after having been maintained for the two scanning time frames t3 and t4.
Thus, the electrode structures in the first embodiment of scanning of the LCD panel and the scanning signal timing sequence thereof shown in
One scanning is defined to correspond to one scanning time frame; and when a scanning time frame in which the two adjacent charging scanning lines are scanned and charged in the LCD panel is a first scanning time frame, the discharging scanning lines connected to the same pixel units as the two adjacent charging scanning lines being scanned are scanned in the LCD panel within a third scanning time frame.
Further, when the two adjacent charging scanning lines are scanned and charged simultaneously, one of the pixel units corresponding to the two adjacent charging scanning lines is electrically connected to one of the first data lines via the source of the charging TFT of the pixel unit, and the other of the pixel units corresponding to the two adjacent charging scanning lines is electrically connected to one of the second data lines via the source of the charging TFT of the pixel unit. The first data line and the second data line input data signals to the sources of the charging TFTs of the pixel units corresponding to the two adjacent charging scanning lines respectively.
As compared to the prior art where only one scanning line is scanned within one scanning period, the present disclosure can scan two adjacent charging scanning lines 11 or two adjacent discharging scanning lines 12 simultaneously within one scanning period; and this can reduce the total number of times of scanning operations necessary for scanning one image and, accordingly, extend the scanning pulse duration of each of the charging scanning lines, thereby ensuring the charging time of the gates of the charging TFTs. That is, as compared to LCD panel in the prior art, each gate of the LCD panel 1 of the present disclosure has a sufficient (double) charging time, so the LCD panel 1 can operate at a high frame rate to improve the experience of the user who uses the LCD panel 1.
Alternatively, when four adjacent charging scanning lines are being scanned in the LCD panel 1, four adjacent discharging scanning lines located in pixel unit rows different from those of the four adjacent charging scanning lines being scanned are scanned within a same scanning time frame.
One scanning is defined to correspond to one scanning time frame; and when a scanning time frame in which the four adjacent charging scanning lines are scanned and charged in the LCD panel is a first scanning time frame. The discharging scanning lines connected to the same pixel units as the four adjacent charging scanning lines being scanned are scanned in the LCD panel within a second scanning time frame.
Hereinafter, how to scan four adjacent ones of the charging scanning lines simultaneously in the LCD panel 1 will be illustrated.
As shown in
Within the scanning time frame t2, the charging scanning line N, the charging scanning line N+1, the charging scanning line N+2 and the charging scanning line N+3 all complete the scanning and keep at a low level. A scanning pulse signal of a high level is inputted by the scan driver 15 into the charging scanning line N+4, the charging scanning line N+5, the charging scanning line N+6 and the charging scanning line N+7 as well as the discharging scanning line N, the discharging scanning line N+1, the discharging scanning line N+2 and the discharging scanning line N+3 simultaneously. Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+4, the charging scanning line N+5, the charging scanning line N+6 and the charging scanning line N+7 are turned on, and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units. Moreover, because the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the discharging scanning line N, the discharging scanning line N+1, the discharging scanning line N+2 and the discharging scanning line N+3 are turned on, the data voltages of the pixel units corresponding to the charging scanning line N, the charging scanning line N+1, the charging scanning line N+2 and the charging scanning line N+3 are discharged after having been maintained for the scanning time frame t1.
Within the scanning time frame t3, the charging scanning line N+4, the charging scanning line N+5, the charging scanning line N+6 and the charging scanning line N+7 all complete the scanning and keep at a low level. A scanning pulse signal of a high level is inputted by the scan driver 15 into the charging scanning line N+8 (not shown), the charging scanning line N+9 (not shown), the charging scanning line N+10 (not shown) and the charging scanning line N+11 (not shown) as well as the discharging scanning line N+4, the discharging scanning line N+5, the discharging scanning line N+6 and the discharging scanning line N+7 simultaneously. Then, the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning line N+8 (not shown), the charging scanning line N+9 (not shown), the charging scanning line N+10 (not shown) and the charging scanning line N+11 (not shown) are turned on, and data voltages are inputted via the first data lines 13 and the second data lines 14 so that a corresponding image is displayed by the pixel units. Moreover, because the gates of the TFTs electrically connected to the discharging scanning line N+4, the discharging scanning line N+5, the discharging scanning line N+6 and the discharging scanning line N+7 are turned on, the data voltages of the pixel units corresponding to the charging scanning line N+4, the charging scanning line N+5, the charging scanning line N+6 and the charging scanning line N+7 are discharged after having been maintained for the scanning time frame t2.
Subsequent scanning and charging operations proceed in a similar way. That is, by scanning four charging scanning lines simultaneously, the total number of times of scanning operations necessary for scanning one image is further reduced and, accordingly, the scanning pulse duration of each of the charging scanning lines is further extended, thereby ensuring the charging time of the gates of the charging TFTs electrically connected to the charging scanning lines. As can be appreciated, when four charging scanning lines are simultaneously scanned in the LCD panel 1, each gate of the LCD panel 1 has a sufficient (four times) charging time, so the LCD panel 1 can operate at a higher frame rate to further improve the experience of the user who uses the LCD panel 1.
Depending on different needs, free switching between scanning of two charging scanning lines simultaneously and scanning of four charging scanning lines simultaneously can be achieved in the LCD panel 1 without changing the specification of the pre-existing drive integrated circuit (IC).
According to the above descriptions, the LCD panel of the present disclosure has the following benefits: the charging time available for each gate of the LCD panel of the present disclosure is extended, and the LCD panel can operate at a high frame rate and switch between two driving modes.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the present disclosure without departing from the scope or spirit of the disclosure. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the present disclosure cover modifications and variations of this disclosure provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
