The present invention relates to the field of display technology, and particularly to a method and a device for adjusting a display picture.
With the progressive development of the liquid crystal display technology and the price advantage of the liquid crystal display screen, the liquid crystal display screen is used as a display screen of various electronic apparatus in our lives or a decorative electronic display device, which has gradually become a trend of the liquid crystal display screen. The liquid crystal display screen in the prior art has been widely used in various kinds of electric appliances, e.g. a liquid crystal display television, a mobile telephone and so on.
When a specific display picture is displayed on the liquid crystal display screen, a greenish phenomenon (i.e., Greenish (green flickering) phenomenon) may occur.
In the prior art, as shown in
From the point of structure of the display panel, reasons for Greenish phenomenon inevitably occurring further include: as for a general display picture, during performing wiring on a printed circuit board, the common voltage Vcom wiring may not be centered, which will induce an instable Vcom and result in the fact that changes in the Vcom brought by data line voltage signals cannot be cancelled out, thus brightness of the green pixel is increased, which will in turn result in occurrence of Greenish phenomenon.
In the prior art, methods for solving Greenish phenomenon include: increasing area of Vcom wiring to decrease resistance in the circuit and then enable the Vcom to be stable; or, employing a Matrix Vcom (matrix common voltage) arrangement to change a former pattern, in which a common electrode at the leftmost end is used to connect a plurality of parallel Vcom lines, into a grid pattern, so as to effectively stabilize the Vcom. In the two methods described above, Greenish phenomenon is alleviated by changing the wiring on the printed circuit board, however, occurrence of Greenish phenomenon can not be solved from the fundamental reasons, and moreover, with the technical solutions in the above two methods, aperture ratio of the liquid crystal display screen could be decreased, causing increased power consumption of the screen.
The present invention provides a method and a device for adjusting a display picture to solve the problem in the prior art that when Greenish phenomenon of a liquid crystal display screen is alleviated, aperture ratio of the display panel is decreased so that power consumption of the screen is increased.

Based on the above technical solution and referring to
Step 700: receiving a first clock signal for controlling a data line voltage signal for a green pixel and receiving a second clock signal for controlling data line voltage signals for red and blue pixels.
During fabrication of the liquid crystal display screen, a PCB circuit is connected to a display picture control device, and the display picture control device receives a first clock signal and a second clock signal sent from the PCB circuit. Specifically, the first clock signal is used to control the data line voltage signal for the green pixel, and the second clock signal is used to control the data line voltage signals for the red and blue pixels. Also, a period length of the first clock signal is the same as that of the second clock signal, and the starting position of a high level signal of the first clock signal is absolutely the same as that of the second clock signal. The high level voltage of the first clock signal is the same as that of the second clock signal.
Step 710: making the pulse width at high level of the first clock signal smaller than that of the second clock signal.
In the prior art, a single clock signal is used to control the data line voltage signals for pixels of the three colors and it is assumed that the pulse width at high level of the clock signal used in the prior artist. In the embodiment of the present invention, two clock signals sent from the PCB circuit (i.e., the first and second clock signals) are received. It is assumed that the pulse width at high level of the first clock signal is t1 and the pulse width at high level of the second clock signal is t2, wherein t1≦t2, preferably, t1=(⅔˜⅘) t2, and t1=t.
The first clock signal and the second clock signal control the data line voltage signals for pixels of different colors, respectively. Wherein, the pulse widths at high level of the respective clock signals correspond to the pulse widths at high level of the data line voltage signals for pixels of corresponding colors. In the embodiment of the present invention, t1=(⅔˜⅘) t2, that is, the pulse width at high level of the data line voltage signal for the green pixel is ⅔˜⅘ of that of the red or blue pixel. By using above preferred technical solution, it only needs to change the pulse width at high level of the clock signal for controlling the data line voltage signal for the green pixel, without changing high and low level voltages of the clock signals for controlling the data line voltage signals for pixels of the above three colors. That is, Greenish phenomenon may be alleviated with minimum circuit modification.
It should be understood that, in case of t1<⅔*t2, since there is a great difference between the pulse widths at high level of the data line voltage signals for the red and blue pixels and that for the green pixel, when the data line voltage signals for pixels of the three colors are input into the display panel, they are combined by the display panel, and when a picture is displayed on the screen, it is likely to occur a phenomenon that the color of picture presented on the screen is inclined to be blue or red.
It also should be understood that, in case of t1>⅘*t2, since there is a little difference between the pulse widths at high level of the data line voltage signals for the red and blue pixels and that for the green pixel, when the data line voltage signals for pixels of the three colors are input into the display panel, they are combined by the display panel, and when a picture is displayed on the screen, it is likely to occur a phenomenon that the color of picture presented on the screen is inclined to be green, that is, Greenish phenomenon still exists to some extent now.
When t1<⅔*t2 and t1>⅘*t2, the display panel may be applied to some occasions where there are special requirements for display pictures presented on the display screen, for example, a occasion in which it is necessary for a display picture provided in the exhibition room to be inclined to a certain color to reach a certain exhibition effect.
As shown in
As can be seen from
In an embodiment of the present invention, the pulse width at high level t1 of the first clock signal CLK1 is smaller than the pulse width at high level t2 of the second clock signal CLK2; the pulse width at low level t3 of the first clock signal CLK1 is larger than the pulse width at low level t4 of the second clock signal CLK2; and the period length of the first clock signal CLK1 is equal to that of the second clock signal CLK2, i.e., t1+t3=t2+t4. In each period, the starting position of the high level of the first clock signal is the same as that of the second clock signal.
As shown in
In the embodiment of the present invention, when displaying pictures on the display panel, display of red pixels on the display panel is controlled by applying the data line voltage signals for red pixels LV0 and LV3 to the data lines for red pixels, display of green pixels on the display panel is controlled by applying the data line voltage signals for green pixels LV1 and LV4 to the data lines for green pixels, and display of blue pixels on the display panel is controlled by applying the data line voltage signals for blue pixels LV2 and LV5 to the data lines for blue pixels.
In the technical solution according to the present invention, a minor alteration is made to the circuit arrangement, and the data line voltage signal for pixel of a certain color can be effectively controlled to effectively alleviate Greenish phenomenon by programming during pre-processing so as to only change the pulse widths at high and low level of a clock signal, but not to change the total duration of one cycle of the clock signal.
As can be seen from
Comparing
It can be deduced from the above contents, the inventive concept of the present invention is as follows: since light of different colors (for example, red, green and blue light) has different spectrum, and sensitivity of the human eyes to red, green and blue is different (that is, sensitivity of the human eyes to green, red, and blue light is reduced successively), as for viewing effects of the human eyes, light of different colors has different light transmittance on the display device, wherein light transmittance of green, red and blue light is reduced successively (for example, green light looks brighter, blue light looks dimmer and brightness of red light is between those of green and red light). In the embodiment of the present invention, since lightening time of pixel of each color is controlled by the pulse width at high level of the corresponding data line voltage signal, by making the pulse width at high level of the data line voltage signal for pixel having a larger brightness smaller than that for pixel having a lower brightness, the lightening time of pixel of the color, to which the human eyes are more sensitive due to its high light transmittance, can be accordingly shortened, so as to alleviate the dominant role of the green pixel on the visual observations, thereby avoiding occurrence of Greenish phenomenon from fundamental reasons.
In view of above, the method according to the embodiments of the present invention includes the steps of: receiving a first clock signal for controlling a data line voltage signal for a green pixel and receiving a second clock signal for controlling data line voltage signals for a red and blue pixels; and making the pulse width at high level of the first clock signal smaller than the pulse width at high level of the second clock signal. In the above technical solution, by shortening the time period during which the data line for the green pixel is maintained at a high level so that the pixel voltage on the green pixel is smaller than those on the red and blue pixels, the sensitivity of the human eye to green is cancelled out, thereby visually achieving the same display effect for the three colors. In the above technical solution, the control circuit of the liquid crystal display panel is controlled to effectively alleviate Greenish phenomenon of the liquid crystal display screen without influencing the circuit arrangement of the control circuit of the liquid crystal display panel and the aperture ratio of the display panel. As a result, the problem of increasing the power consumption of the screen while alleviating Greenish phenomenon can be avoided effectively.
