The plurality of sub-pixels P are arranged in rows and columns, each row includes sub-pixels P arranged in a first direction X, and each column includes sub-pixels P arranged in a second direction Y. Each row of sub-pixels P may include sub-pixels P, and each column of sub-pixels P may include sub-pixels P.


The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect. An angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y may be set according to actual needs. For example, the angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y is 85°, 89°, or 90°.


As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the sub-pixel P includes a light-emitting device 11 and a pixel driving circuit 12 that are disposed on the substrate 1, and the pixel driving circuit 12 includes a plurality of thin film transistors (TFTs) 121.

The light-emitting device 11 includes a first electrode layer 111, a light-emitting function layer 112, and a second electrode layer 113 that are disposed sequentially in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 1 and away from the substrate 1. The first electrode layer 111 is electrically connected to a source 1212 or a drain 1213 of a TFT in the plurality of TFTs 121 as a driving transistor. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the first electrode layer 111 is electrically connected to the source 1212 of the TFT 121.

With reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the structure and operation process of the sub-pixel P are schematically described below by taking an example in which the LTPO pixel driving circuit includes eight transistors T and one capacitor CST.

The first transistor T1 and the seventh transistor T7 are reset transistors, and the second transistor T2, the fourth transistor T4 and the eighth transistor T8 are scan transistors. A control electrode of a third transistor T3 is coupled to a terminal of the capacitor CST, and control electrodes of the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 are both coupled to an enable signal terminal EM. The third transistor T3 is the driving transistor, and the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 are switching transistors. The first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, and the seventh transistor T7 are all P-type LTPS TFTs, and the eighth transistor T8 is an N-type IGZO TFT.


A frame (illustrated as 1F in FIG. 6) includes a reset period P1, a charging period P2, and a light-emitting period P3.


In the reset period P1, the first transistor T1 and the seventh transistor T7 are turned on under control of a reset signal from the reset signal terminal RESET, the eighth transistor T8 is turned on under control of a second scan signal from the second scan signal terminal GATE2, a voltage of a first node N1 is reset to a voltage of an initialization voltage signal from a first initialization signal terminal VINT1, and a voltage of a second node N2 is reset to a voltage of an initialization voltage signal from a second initialization signal terminal VINT2.

In order to reduce the power consumption of the display panel 10, the display panel 10 has a high frequency driving mode and a low frequency driving mode. The low frequency driving mode is used for the display of the static image. In the low frequency driving mode, a low frequency cycle includes a refresh frame and a plurality of keep frames. It will be noted that one refresh frame may be one frame as described above, and one keep frame may be one frame as described above. As shown in FIG. 7, one refresh frame and one keep frame are taken as an example.


However, in the low frequency driving mode, since a refresh frequency of the display panel is reduced, human eyes are more sensitive to flicker of an image displayed on the display panel, which results in a problem that human eyes sense the flicker of the image displayed on the display panel.


According to research, referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, a flicker value of an image is affected by parameters such as a light-emitting delay time Td (i.e., a time interval between a start of the charging period of the frame and a start of the light-emitting period of the frame), a voltage of the anode of the light-emitting device, and a keep voltage Vkeep from the data signal terminal received by the source of the driving transistor T3 during the keep frame 1F(2). In a case where an image with a low flicker value is required, the parameters required by display panels 10 (referring to FIG. 2) with different line arrangements may not be exactly same.


As shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 7, the light-emitting delay time Td is also a characteristic recovery time of the driving transistor T3, the length of the characteristic recovery time affects a state of the driving transistor T3 and in turn affects a brightness of the light-emitting device 11. The voltage of the anode of the light-emitting device 11 in a frame (e.g., a voltage of the initialization signal (i.e., a first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1) received by the light-emitting device 11 during the refresh frame 1F(1), or a voltage of the initialization signal (i.e., a second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2) received by the light-emitting device 11 during the keep frame 1F(2)) affects a turned-on speed of the light-emitting device 11. As a result, the final brightness of the light-emitting device 11 is affected. The keep voltage Vkeep from the data signal terminal received during the keep frame 1F(2) also affects the state of the driving transistor T3, thus affecting the brightness of the light-emitting device 11.


In light of this, referring to FIG. 8, a driver chip 30 included in the display module 110 in the embodiments of the present disclosure stores a preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time. The driver chip 30 is configured to generate light-emitting signals according to the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time, and transmit the light-emitting signals to the display panel 10, so as to drive the display panel 10 to emit light. In this case, a floating of the brightness of the image displayed on the display panel 10 in the low frequency driving mode may be reduced, thus reducing the flicker value of the display panel 10 and ameliorating the problem that the human eyes sense the flicker of the image displayed on the display panel.


The preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time may be obtained according to the parameter adjustment method of the display module 110 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, reference may be made to the following description, and details will not be provided here.


In some embodiments, the driver chip 30 further stores at least one of a preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal, a preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, and a preferred value PR Vkeep of a data keep signal. For example, the driver chip 30 further stores the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal, the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, and the preferred value PR Vkeep of the data keep signal. In this case, the driver chip 30 is configured to: generate the light-emitting signals according to the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time, the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal, the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, and the preferred value PR Vkeep of the data keep signal, and transmit the light-emitting signals to the display panel 10, so as to drive the display panel 10 to emit light. In this case, the turned-on speed of the light-emitting device 11 may be controlled by the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal and the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, so as to adjust the final brightness of the light-emitting device 11. Thus, the flicker value of the display panel 10 is reduced, and the problem that the human eyes sense the flicker of the image displayed on the display panel is ameliorated. In addition, the voltage of the source of the driving transistor T3 may be controlled by the preferred value PR Vkeep of the data keep signal, so that the state of the driving transistor T3 is adjusted, and the final brightness of the light-emitting device 11 is adjusted. Therefore, it may further reduce the flicker value of the display panel 10, and ameliorate the problem that the human eyes sense the flicker of the image displayed on the display panel.


The preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal, the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, and the preferred value PR Vkeep of the data keep signal may be obtained according to the parameter adjustment method of the display module 110 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, reference may be made to the following description, and details will not be provided here.


Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide the parameter adjustment method of the display module 110. Based on this method, referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the display module 110 is capable of operating in the low frequency driving mode. The low frequency driving mode includes a plurality of low frequency cycles, and a low frequency cycle includes one refresh frame 1F(1) and at least one keep frame 1F(2).


Based on this, as shown in FIG. 9, the parameter adjustment method includes S100 to S400.


In S100, an initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time and a plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S are set.


In the above step, S is greater than or equal to 1 (S≥1), and S is a positive integer. The initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time may be in a range from 0 to 30 times a row scan time period. For example, the initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time is any one of 0 times the row scan time period, 10 times the row scan time period, and 30 times the row scan time period. The plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S may be selected according to actual needs, which is not limited in the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 19, five specified gray levels are taken as an example.


It will be noted that, the row scan time period=1 second÷the refresh frequency÷the number of scanned rows. For example, the refresh frequency of the display panel is 120 Hz, the number of scanned rows is 1000, and the row scan time period is 0.0083 ms.


In S200, based on the initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time, the light-emitting delay time Td is adjusted stepwise until a value Tdm of an adjusted light-emitting delay time exceeds a preset range of the light-emitting delay time, so that a plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time within the preset range of the light-emitting delay time Td are obtained.


In the above step, m is greater than or equal to 1 (m≥1), and m is a positive integer. The preset range of the light-emitting delay time Td may be 0 to 30 times the row scan time period. Adjusting the light-emitting delay time Td stepwise may be that, based on the initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time, adjusting the light-emitting delay time Td from low to high or high to low according to the first set step value Step1, and a single value Tdm of the light-emitting delay time after each adjustment is obtained. The first set step value Step1 may be 1 times the row scan time period (1 h) to 5 h; for example, the first set step value Step1 may be any one of 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, and 5 h.


For example, the initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time is 0 times the row scan time period, and the first set step value Step1 is 1 h. In this case, the light-emitting delay time Td is adjusted from low to high for 1 h each time until the value Tdm of the light-emitting delay time after the adjustment is greater than 30 h.


For example, the initial value Td0 of the light-emitting delay time is 30 times the row scan time period, and the first set step value Step1 is 5 h. In this case, the light-emitting delay time Td is adjusted from high to low for 5 h each time until the value Tdm of the light-emitting delay time after the adjustment is less than 0 h.


In S300, for each value of the values (Td0 to Tdm-1) of the light-emitting delay time Td, a plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S are obtained.


In the above step, before each stepwise adjustment of the light-emitting delay time Td, for a value of the light-emitting delay time Td obtained before each stepwise adjustment, a plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S may be obtained.


That is, during the process of adjusting the light-emitting delay time Td stepwise, the plurality of flicker values at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for the value of the light-emitting delay time Td before each adjustment are simultaneously obtained. Therefore, when the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time are obtained, the plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for each value of the values (Td0 to Tdm-1) of the light-emitting delay time Td are obtained.


The plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S may be flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for an initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal, or may be flicker values of the display module at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for a plurality of values of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1. As for details, reference may be made to the following description, which will not be provided here. The first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is the initialization signal received by the light-emitting device 11 during the refresh frame.


In S400, a preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time is determined from the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time according to a plurality of flicker values corresponding to the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time.


In the above step, a method for determining the preferred light-emitting delay time PR Td from the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time in a case where the flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal are obtained is not the same as a method for determining the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time from the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time in a case where the flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for the plurality of values of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1. As for details, reference may be made to the following description, which will not be provided here.


The preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time may be stored in the driver chip 30, which may generate light-emitting signals according to the preferred light-emitting delay time PR Td, and transmit the light-emitting signals to the display panel 10, so as to drive the display panel 10 to emit light. In this case, it may be possible to reduce the floating of the brightness of the image displayed on the display panel 10 in the low frequency driving mode, reduce the flicker value of the display panel 10, and ameliorate the problem that the human eyes sense the flicker of the image displayed on the display panel.


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, S300 includes S310 to S330.


In S310, the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal is set.


In the above step, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is the initialization signal received by the light-emitting device during the refresh frame. The initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal may be in a range from −6 V to −1 V. For example, the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal may be any one of −1 V, −3 V, −5 V, and −6 V.


In S320, based on the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is adjusted stepwise until a value VINT2-1.n of an adjusted first initialization sub-signal exceeds a preset range of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1, so that a plurality of values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal within the preset range of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 are obtained.


In the above step, n is greater than or equal to 1 (n≥1), and n is a positive integer. The number of the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time is M, the number of the plurality of values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is N. The M values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time and the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal are divided into M×N first parameter groups, and a first parameter group includes a single value of the light-emitting delay time Td and a single value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1.


In addition, the preset range of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is from −6 V to −1 V. Adjusting the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 stepwise means that, based on the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is adjusted from low to high or high to low according to a second set step value Step2, and a value VINT2-1.n of the first initialization sub-signal after each adjustment is obtained. The second set step value Step2 may be in a range from 0.1 V to 0.5 V; for example, the second set step value Step2 may be any one of 0.1 V, 0.2 V, 0.3 V, 0.4 V, and 0.5 V.


For example, the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal is −6 V, and the second set step value Step2 is 0.1 V. In this case, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is adjusted from low to high for 0.1 V each time until the value VINT2-1.n of the first initialization sub-signal after the adjustment is greater than −1 V.


For example, the initial value VINT2-1.0 of the first initialization sub-signal is −1 V, and the second set step value Step2 is 0.5 V. In this case, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is adjusted from high to low for 0.5 V each time until the value VINT2-1.n of the first initialization sub-signal after the adjustment is less than −6 V.


In S330, the plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for each first parameter group of the M×N first parameter groups are obtained.


In the above step, before each stepwise adjustment of the light-emitting delay time Td, for a value of the light-emitting delay time Td obtained before the adjustment, flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for the N values of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 are obtained.


That is, during the process of adjusting the light-emitting delay time Td stepwise, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is stepwise adjusted before each adjustment of the light-emitting delay time Td; and before each stepwise adjustment of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1, flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for a value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 obtained before the adjustment are obtained simultaneously. Therefore, when the plurality of values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time are obtained, the plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for each first parameter group of the M×N first parameter groups are obtained at the same time.


Flicker values corresponding to a single first parameter group constitute a single set of flicker values. On this basis, as shown in FIG. 11, S400 includes S410 to S430.


In S410, a target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding to each value of the values (VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1) of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is determined from the M values Td0 to Tdm-1 of the light-emitting delay time.


In the above step, the target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time is a value of the light-emitting delay time Td corresponding to a set of flicker values with a highest convergence in M sets of flicker values, and the M sets of flicker values corresponds to the M values of the light-emitting delay time and each include the value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1.


For example, as shown in FIG. 19, the convergence of the set of flicker values may be determined by variance. The smaller the variance, the higher the convergence.


For example, the value of the first initialization sub-signal is (VINT2-1.0+Step2×3), the target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding thereto is (Td0+Step1×2). Here, a flicker value corresponding to the value (VINT2-1.0+Step2×3) is an intersection point shown in FIG. 19.


In S420, a preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is determined from the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal.


In the above step, the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is determined, so as to determine the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time according to the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal in S430. As for the process of determining the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal, reference may be made to the following description, and details will not be provided here.


In S430, a target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding to the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is determined as the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time.


In the above step, according to target values AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding to the values of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 obtained in the S410, the target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding to the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is determined as the preferred value PR Td of the light-emitting delay time.


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 12, S420 includes S421 to S423.


In S421, a plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal are obtained, and a preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal is determined from the plurality of values of the second initialization sub-signal.


In the above step, k is greater than or equal to 1 (k≥1), and k is a positive integer. The second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is the initialization signal received by the light-emitting device 11 during the keep frame. As for the process of obtaining the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal and determining the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal from the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal, reference may be made to the following description, and details will not be provided here.


In S422, for the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal, N flicker values at a target gray level corresponding to the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal are obtained.


In the above step, the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is the initialization signal received by the light-emitting device 11 during the keep frame, and the target gray level is one of the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S. In general, in a case where a flicker value at the target gray level corresponding to the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal meets the requirements, flicker values at other gray levels of the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S also meet the requirements. Target gray levels corresponding to different line arrangements may be different. The target gray level may be selected according to actual line arrangements, or may be set according to experimental values, or may be determined based on the plurality of flicker values. As for details, reference may be made to the following description, which will not be provided here.


In addition, the N flicker values at the target gray level corresponding to the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal for the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal are determined by performing S4213; as for details, reference may be made to the following description, which will not be provided here.


In S423, a value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 corresponding to a minimum flicker value of the N flicker values is determined as the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal.


In the above step, as shown in FIG. 21, in a case where the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal is (VINT2-2.0+Step3×3), the preferred value PR VINT2-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is (VINT2-1.0+Step2×2).


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13, S421 includes S4211 to S4215.


In S4211, the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal is set.


In the above step, the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal may be in a range from −6 V to −1 V. For example, the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal may be any one of −1 V, −3 V, −5 V, and −6 V.


In S4212, based on the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal, the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is adjusted stepwise until a value VINT2-2.k of an adjusted second initialization sub-signal exceeds the preset range of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2, so that the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal within the preset range of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 are obtained.


In the above step, k≥1, and k is a positive integer. The number of the values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal is N, the number of the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal is K. The N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal and the K values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal are divided into N×K second parameter groups, and a second parameter group includes a single value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 and a single value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2.


In addition, the preset range of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is from −6 V to −1 V. Adjusting the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 stepwise means that, based on the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal, the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is adjusted from low to high or high to low according to a third set step value Step3, and a value VINT2-2.k of the second initialization sub-signal after each adjustment is obtained. The third set step value Step3 may be in a range from 0.1 V to 0.5 V; for example, the third set step value Step3 may be any one of 0.1 V, 0.2 V, 0.3 V, 0.4 V, and 0.5 V.


For example, the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal is −6 V, and the third set step value Step3 is 0.1 V. In this case, the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is adjusted from low to high for 0.1 V each time until the value VINT2-2.k of the adjusted second initialization sub-signal is greater than −1 V.


For example, the initial value VINT2-2.0 of the second initialization sub-signal is −1 V, and the third set step value Step3 is 0.5 V. In this case, the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is adjusted for 0.5 V each time from high to low until the value VINT2-2.k of the adjusted second initialization sub-signal is less than −6 V.


In S4213, a plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for a target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time and each second parameter group of the N×K second parameter groups are obtained.


In the above step, the target value AM Td of the light-emitting delay time may be any one of N target values AM Td of the light-emitting delay time corresponding to the N values of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 in the S410.


In addition, before each stepwise adjustment of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2, for a value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 obtained before the adjustment, a plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal may be obtained.


That is, during the process of adjusting the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 stepwise, the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 is stepwise adjusted before each adjustment of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2; and before each stepwise adjustment of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1, a plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for a value of the first initialization sub-signal VINT2-1 obtained before the adjustment are obtained simultaneously. Therefore, the plurality of values VINT2-2 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal and the plurality of flicker values of the display module 110 at the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S for each second parameter group of the N×K second parameter groups are obtained at the same time.


In S4214, one specified gray level is selected from the plurality of specified gray levels 1 to S as the target gray level.


In the above step, in flicker values at the target gray level for the N values VINT2-1.0 to VINT2-1.n-1 of the first initialization sub-signal and each of the values (VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1) of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2, a difference between the maximum flicker value and the minimum flicker value is in a first preset threshold range, and the first preset threshold range, for example, may be from 10 dB to 15 dB; and/or, a flicker value at the target gray level for each of the second parameter groups is in a second preset threshold range, and the second preset threshold range, for example, may be from −40 dB to −70 dB.


For example, as shown in FIG. 21, the target gray level is the specified gray level of 5.


In S4215, a value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is determined from the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal as the preferred value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2, and a range of flicker values of the display module 110 at the target gray level for the value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is maximum.


In the above step, the value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is determined from the plurality of values VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1 of the second initialization sub-signal, and the range of the flicker values of the display module 110 at the target gray level corresponding to the value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is maximum. That is, a difference between a maximum flicker value and a minimum flicker value of flicker values of the display module 110 at the target gray level for each of the values (VINT2-2.0 to VINT2-2.k-1) of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 is calculated, and a value of the second initialization sub-signal VINT2-2 corresponding to a maximum difference is used as the preferred value PR VINT2-2 of the second initialization sub-signal.

In the above step, the data keep signal Vkeep is the data signal received by the data signal terminal of the pixel driving circuit 12 in the keep frame. The initial value Vkeep.0 of the data keep signal may be in a range from 1 V to 8 V. For example, the initial value Vkeep.0 of the data keep signal may be any one of 1 V, 3 V, 5 V, and 8 V.

The fourth set step value Step4 may be in a range from 0.1 V to 0.5 V. For example, the fourth set step value Step4 may be any one of 0.1 V, 0.2 V, 0.3V, 0.4 V, and 0.5 V.


For example, the initial value Vkeep.0 of the data keep signal is 1 V, and the fourth set step value Step4 is 0.1 V. In this case, the data keep signal Vkeep is adjusted from low to high for 0.1 V each time until the value Vkeep.x of the adjusted data keep signal is greater than 8 V.


For example, the initial value Vkeep.0 of the data keep signal is 8 V, and the fourth set step value Step4 is 0.5 V. In this case, the data keep signal Vkeep is adjusted from high to low for 0.5 V each time until the value Vkeep.x of the adjusted data keep signal is less than 1 V.

That is, during the process of adjusting the data keep signal Vkeep stepwise, the flicker value at the target gray level for the value of the data keep signal Vkeep obtained before each adjustment is obtained. Therefore, when the plurality of values Vkeep to Vkeep.x of the data keep signal are obtained, a flicker value of the display module 110 at the target gray level for each of the values (Vkeep to Vkeep.x) of the data keep signal Vkeep is obtained.


In S830, a data keep signal corresponding to a minimum flicker value of flicker values at the target gray level for the plurality of values (Vkeep to Vkeep.x) of the data keep signal is determined as a preferred value PR Vkeep of the data keep signal.
