In the prior art polarity reversion driving method of liquid crystal display in dual-gate-line and single-data-line mode, in a same row, sub-pixel electrodes on both sides of each data line are alternately arranged with positive and negative polarities. Due to the RC delay of data lines, the charging effects of sub-pixels on both sides of each data line in the same row will be inconsistent.

In prior art polarity reversion driving method of liquid crystal display, the polarity arrangement of each frame is shown in
In order to make the idea of the present disclosure thoroughly understood, description will be given below by way of exemplary embodiments.
As shown in
According to the above-mentioned polarity reversion driving method, the polarity arrangement of each frame is repeated with a period of four rows and four columns. Sub-pixels in the first row and the second row have the same polarities, sub-pixels in the third row and the fourth row have the same polarities, and sub-pixels in the first row and the third row have reversed polarities. Sub-pixels in the first column and the fourth column in the first frame have the same polarities, sub-pixels in the second column and the third column have the same polarities, and sub-pixels in the first column and the second column have reversed polarities. Sub-pixels in the first column and the second column in the second frame have the same polarities, sub-pixels in the third column and the fourth column have the same polarities, and sub-pixels in the first column and the third column have reversed polarities. In the polarity arrangement of the first frame, polarities of the first column of sub-pixels are positive, positive, negative, negative in turn, and polarities of sub-pixels in the second column are negative, negative, positive, positive in turn. In the polarity arrangement of the second frame, polarities of the first column of sub-pixels are positive, positive, negative, negative in turn, and polarities of sub-pixels in the second column are positive, positive, negative, negative in turn.
With the above-mentioned polarity arrangement, it is possible to have a result in which in the first frame, G column of sub-pixels on the right side of the data signal line n are undercharged, and even numbered rows of R column of sub-pixels are undercharged (parts with skew lines in the schematic diagram), and for normally-white mode, their brightness is larger than odd numbered rows of R column of sub-pixels that are normally charged. In the second frame, even numbered rows of R column of sub-pixels and G column of sub-pixels corresponding to the data signal line n may be charged normally, and odd numbered rows of R column of sub-pixels are undercharged (parts with skew lines in the schematic diagram), their brightness is complementary to that of the first frame of the data signal line n exactly, and time average makes the brightness of R column and G column of sub-pixels perceived consistent in visual effect and results in a uniform picture. As to the third and the fourth frames, with a principle same as that for the first and second frames, the brightness of pixel columns undercharged can compensates for each other between two adjacent frames, and poor quality of V-line (vertical line) will not be formed visually. If prior art polarity reversion driving is used, that is, the polarity arrangement of the first frame and the polarity arrangement of the third frame alternately drive, or the polarity arrangement of the second frame and the polarity arrangement of the fourth frame alternately drive the liquid crystal panel to display, its sub-pixels of G column are always brighter than sub-pixels of R column and V-line phenomenon would occur visually.
The time sequence waveform of every four frames for the above-mentioned polarity reversion signals POL1, POL2, POL3, POL4 and POL5 and the control signal is shown in
As shown in
According to the above-mentioned polarity reversion driving method, the polarity arrangement of each frame is repeated with a period of two rows and four columns, with sub-pixels in the first row and the second row having reversed polarities. In the first frame, sub-pixels in the first column and the fourth column have the same polarities, sub-pixels in the second column and the third column have the same polarities, and sub-pixels in the first column and the second column have reversed polarities. In the second frame, sub-pixels in the first column and the second column have the same polarities, sub-pixels in the third column and the fourth column have the same polarities, and sub-pixels in the first column and the third column have reversed polarities. In the polarity arrangement of the first frame, polarities of sub-pixels in the first column are positive, negative, positive and negative in turn, and polarities of sub-pixels in the second column are negative, positive, negative and positive in turn. In the polarity arrangement of the second frame, polarities of sub-pixels in the first column are positive, negative, positive, negative in turn, and polarities of sub-pixels in the second column are positive, negative, positive, negative in turn.
The above-mentioned polarity arrangement will result in that in the first frame, sub-pixels in G column which is associated with the data signal line n are undercharged (parts with skew lines in the schematic diagram), for normally-white mode, sub-pixels in G column are brighter than sub-pixels in R column that are normally charged. For data signal lines n+1, n+2 etc., similarly, sub-pixels in R column, B column corresponding to those signal lines will be brighter than sub-pixels in B column and G column. In traditional methods, two frames constitute one polarity reversion period, as shown in
