It should be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are only exemplary and explanatory and are not restrictive of the present disclosure.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this Description, illustrate embodiments consistent with the present disclosure and, together with the Description, serve to explain the principles of the present disclosure. Apparently, the accompanying drawings in the following description show merely some embodiments of the present disclosure, and persons of ordinary skill in the art may still derive other drawings from these accompanying drawings without creative efforts.
Exemplary embodiments are described more comprehensively below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments provided will enable the present disclosure to be more thorough and complete, and fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, the same reference numerals denote the same or similar structures, and thus the repeated description thereof will be omitted.
Although relative terms such as “upper” and “lower” are used in the Description to describe the relative relationship of one component with respect to another component as shown in the figures, these terms are used in the Description only for convenience, for example, based on the exemplary directions shown in the figures. It is to be understood that if an apparatus shown in the figures is turned upside down, the described “upper” component will become a “lower” component. Other relative terms, such as “high” and “low”, “top”, and “bottom”, and “left” and “right” have similar meanings. When a structure is “on” another structure, it may mean that the structure is integrally formed on the another structure, or that the structure is “directly” arranged on the another structure, or that the structure is “indirectly” arranged on the another structure via still another structure.
The terms “a”, “an”, and “the” are configured to indicate the presence of one or more elements/components etc. The terms “include” and “have” are configured to indicate the meaning including an opening inclusion and indicate that there may be other elements/components etc. in addition to the listed elements/components/etc.
In the related art, in order to avoid polarization of liquid crystal, a liquid crystal display panel usually adopts positive and negative alternate driving modes to drive a liquid crystal layer, for example, frame inversion, dot inversion, column inversion, row inversion and other driving modes. Therefore, in the liquid crystal display panel, a gamma circuit needs to output a positive gamma reference voltage corresponding to positive driving and a negative gamma reference voltage corresponding to negative driving.
The liquid crystal display panel needs to output the positive gamma reference voltage corresponding to the positive driving and the negative gamma reference voltage corresponding to the negative driving, and thus, the gamma circuit occupies a larger layout space of a circuit board as more resistors needs to be provided on the gamma circuit in the related art. In addition, since the negative gamma reference voltage generally has a negative voltage, the voltage value of a signal provided by the low-level terminal AVDD needs to be less than 0. Accordingly, the provision of the high-level terminal AVDD and the low-level terminal AVEE in the related art needs a DC-DC converter chip. However, the structure of the DC-DC converter chip is relatively complex and the cost is relatively high.
Based on this, a gamma circuit is provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
For example, the gamma circuit shown in
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the positive gamma voltage output terminals (GAM1, GAM2, GAM3, GAM4 and GAM5 as shown in
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the positive gamma reference voltage is a gamma reference voltage corresponding to positive driving, and the negative gamma reference voltage is a gamma reference voltage corresponding to negative driving. The gamma circuit may be applicable to a liquid crystal display panel. Here, the positive gamma reference voltage may be greater than or equal to the voltage of a common electrode of the liquid crystal display panel, and the negative gamma reference voltage may be less than or equal to the voltage of the common electrode of the liquid crystal display panel. In other words, the positive gamma reference voltage may be greater than or equal to the negative gamma reference voltage.
In summary, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides the gamma circuit. Since the gamma circuit can output the negative gamma reference voltage to the negative gamma voltage output terminal based on the positive gamma reference voltage output by the positive gamma voltage output terminal via the voltage conversion circuit, some voltage dividing circuits for providing the negative gamma reference voltages to the negative gamma voltage output terminals are omitted compared with the related art, Thus, the number of the resistors is reduced.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the gamma circuit may be directly integrated on an array substrate included in the display panel. In other words, the gamma circuit may be formed on the same layer as a pixel driving circuit in the array substrate via a patterning process, such that a layout space can be left on the circuit board to facilitate the layout design of the circuit board. It should be noted that the gamma circuit may also be only partially integrated on the array substrate. For example, only the voltage conversion circuits 1 in the gamma circuit may be integrated on the array substrate.

It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, the gamma circuit may include the different number of positive gamma voltage output terminals and the different number of negative gamma voltage output terminals. For example,
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the positive gamma reference voltage output by each of the positive gamma voltage output terminals and the negative gamma reference voltage output by the negative gamma voltage output terminal corresponding to the positive gamma voltage output terminal may correspond to the same gray scale.

In other words, the second capacitor Cy may be connected between the second power supply terminal Vref and the negative gamma voltage output terminal GAM10.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, one of the first switch transistor K1 and the second switch transistor K2 may be a P-type transistor, and the other switch transistor may be an N-type transistor. For example, in the voltage conversion circuit shown in
It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, the first switch sub-circuit 11, the second switch sub-circuit 12, the first storage sub-circuit 13 and the second storage sub-circuit 14 may also be of other structures.

The voltage Vref0 of the power supply signal provided by the second power supply terminal Vref may satisfy: Vref0=2*Vcom+Vth1+Vth2.
Here, Vcom is the voltage of the common electrode of the liquid crystal display panel; Vth1 is the threshold voltage of the first diode D1; and Vth2 is the threshold voltage of the second diode D2.
Optionally, the threshold voltage Vth1 of the first diode D1 may be equal to the threshold voltage Vth2 of the second diode D2. In addition, the plurality of voltage conversion circuits 1 in the gamma circuit may share the same first power supply terminal VSS, the same second power supply terminal Vref, and the same clock signal terminal CLK.

Such a configuration can realize a symmetrical adjustment mode of the gamma circuit. In other words, under the same gray scale, the voltage difference between the positive driving voltage and the voltage of the common electrode is equal to the voltage difference between the negative driving voltage and the voltage of the common electrode.

In summary, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides the gamma circuit. Since the gamma circuit can output the negative gamma reference voltage to the negative gamma voltage output terminal based on the positive gamma reference voltage output by the positive gamma voltage output terminal via the voltage conversion circuit, some voltage dividing circuits for providing the negative gamma reference voltages to the negative gamma voltage output terminals are omitted compared with the related art.

In summary, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides the method for driving the gamma circuit. In the method, since the gamma circuit can output the negative gamma reference voltage to the negative gamma voltage output terminal based on the positive gamma reference voltage output by the positive gamma voltage output terminal via the voltage conversion circuit, some voltage dividing circuits for providing the negative gamma reference voltages to the negative gamma voltage output terminals are omitted compared with the related art.
