DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The specific embodiments of the present disclosure are illustrated in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only intended to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, rather than limiting the present disclosure.


In a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a power management device (PMIC, power management IC). As shown in FIG. 1, the power management device includes an initial voltage input terminal VIN, a power management circuit 110, and a plurality of gamma correction circuits 120. The initial voltage input terminal VIN is configured to provide an initial voltage VIN_GAMA.


The power management circuit 110 includes at least one follower amplifier sub-circuit, each follower amplifier sub-circuit is configured to output a corresponding target operating voltage according to the initial voltage VIN_GAMA, a reference voltage Vref, and a target operating voltage setting parameter. Each gamma correction circuit 120 is configured to output a corresponding gamma correction voltage according to the initial voltage VIN_GAMA, the reference voltage Vref, and a gamma parameter.


In the present disclosure, the power management circuit 110 outputs the target operating voltage through the follower amplifier sub-circuit. The follower amplifier sub-circuit has a simple circuit structure, which allows integration of the plurality of gamma correction circuits 120 in the power management circuit 110, thereby facilitating making an electronic device including the power management device small and light.


It should be noted that the power management device is applied to a display device including a display panel, and the target operating voltage and the plurality of gamma correction voltages provided by the power management device can be used to drive the display panel to display.


How to generate the reference voltage Vref is not particularly limited in the present disclosure. Optionally, the reference voltage Vref may be generated by use of the initial voltage VIN_GAMA provided by the initial voltage input terminal. That is, the power management device further includes a reference voltage generation sub-circuit configured to generate the reference voltage Vref according to the initial voltage VIN_GAMA provided by the initial voltage input terminal. As an optional implementation, the reference voltage generation sub-circuit may have a low-dropout (LDO) regulator, so as to reduce a fluctuation caused by the initial voltage VIN_GAMA and improve the stability of the reference voltage Vref.


The specific number of the gamma correction circuits 120 is not particularly limited in the present disclosure. For example, the number of the gamma correction circuits 120 may be determined according to specific requirements of a display panel. For example, the power management device may include 10 gamma correction circuits. However, it should be noted that, by providing 10 gamma correction circuits, it should be ensured that a finally obtained gamma curve can meet a corresponding standard.


The specific type of the target operating voltage is not particularly limited in the present disclosure. For example, the target operating voltage may be a semi-analog supply voltage (i.e. HAVDD). In the case where the display panel used together with the power management device is a liquid crystal display panel, the target operating voltage may be a common voltage VCOM.


In the related art, a power management device provides an analog supply voltage (i.e., AVDD), and a plurality of buck chopper circuits (i.e., buck circuits) need to be externally attached to the power management device so as to generate target operating voltages such as a common voltage, a semi-analog supply voltage and the like respectively by use of the analog supply voltage. Furthermore, in the related art, a programmable gamma chip needs to be externally attached to output a plurality of gamma correction voltages. As described above, the power management device in the present disclosure can output not only a plurality of gamma correction voltages but also a plurality of target operating voltages, and as compared with the related art, the present disclosure can realize various functions in the related art with a simpler structure.


The specific structure of the gamma correction circuit 120 is not particularly limited in the present disclosure. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the gamma correction circuit 120 may include a gamma parameter register sub-circuit 121, a gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122, and a gamma correction operational amplifier 123.


An output terminal of the gamma parameter register sub-circuit 121 is electrically coupled to an input terminal of the gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122, so as to provide a gamma setting parameter to the gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122.


A first reference terminal of the gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122 is configured to receive the reference voltage Vref, and a second reference terminal of the gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122 is grounded, so that the gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit can output an initial gamma analog signal according to the reference voltage Vref and the gamma setting parameter.

In the case where the gamma correction circuit is used to generate a gamma correction signal, a setting parameter (specifically, in the form of a digital-to-analog conversion code (DAC code)) is input to the gamma parameter register sub-circuit 121. Specifically, an output voltage of the gamma parameter register sub-circuit 121 is controlled through the DAC code, and a corresponding gamma correction voltage is finally generated by the gamma correction operational amplifier 123.


It should be noted that each gamma correction circuit 120 includes a gamma parameter register sub-circuit 121, a gamma correction digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 122, and a gamma correction operational amplifier 123.


In the related art, an analog supply voltage AVDD generated by the power management device needs to be output to the externally attached programmable gamma correction chip to generate a gamma correction voltage. By comparison, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the structure that can generate the gamma correction voltage merely using the initial voltage is simpler.


As described above, the target operating voltage may include a semi-analog supply voltage HAVDD. Correspondingly, the target operating voltage setting parameter includes a semi-analog supply voltage setting parameter, and the at least one follower amplifier sub-circuit includes a first follower amplifier sub-circuit 111 configured to output the semi-analog supply voltage.


As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the first follower amplifier sub-circuit 111 includes a first parameter register 111a, a first digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 111b, a first operational amplifier 111c, and a first comparator 111d.


As shown in FIG. 4, an output terminal of the first parameter register 111a is electrically coupled to an input terminal of the first digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 111b, so as to provide the semi-analog supply voltage setting parameter to the first digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 111b.

The input terminal of the first operational amplifier 111c is electrically coupled to the output terminal of the first digital-to-analog conversion sub-circuit 111b, a first reference terminal of the first operational amplifier 111c is electrically coupled to the initial voltage input terminal VIN, and a second reference terminal of the first operational amplifier 111c is grounded, so that the first operational amplifier 111c can output a secondary semi-analog supply voltage signal according to the initial semi-analog supply voltage signal and the initial voltage VIN_GAMA.


A positive input terminal of the first comparator 111d is electrically coupled to an output terminal of the first operational amplifier 111c, a negative input terminal of the first comparator 111d is electrically coupled to a feedback voltage terminal HAVDD_FB, a first reference terminal of the first comparator 111d is electrically coupled to a built-in voltage input terminal SWI of an analog supply voltage sub-circuit, and a second reference terminal of the first comparator 111d is grounded, so that the first comparator 111d can output the semi-analog supply voltage HAVDD according to a built-in voltage provided by the built-in voltage input terminal SWI, the secondary semi-analog supply voltage signal, and a feedback signal output from the feedback voltage terminal HAVDD_FB.


In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the semi-analog supply voltage HAVDD can be generated merely by the first follower amplifier sub-circuit by using the built-in voltage and the initial voltage, which simplifies the structure of the power management device.


As an alternative implementation of the present disclosure, a drive enhancement transistor circuit (including a plurality of transistors operating in an amplification region) is externally attached and electrically coupled to an output terminal of the first comparator 111d to further amplify the voltage output by the first comparator 111d. In this way, the heat generated can be effectively transferred to the outside of the power management device while ensuring the drive capability of the semi-analog supply voltage.


In the present disclosure, the number of the gamma correction circuits is an even number, that is, the power management device includes 2N gamma correction circuits, N being a positive integer not less than 1. Among the 2N gamma correction circuits, the first N gamma correction circuits output positive voltages, and the last N gamma correction circuits output negative voltages. The semi-analog supply voltage HAVDD is between the Nth gamma correction voltage and the (N+1)th gamma correction voltage. Therefore, in the process of generating the semi-analog supply voltage, a value of a setting parameter corresponding to the Nth gamma correction circuit and a value of a setting parameter corresponding to the (N+1)th gamma correction circuit need to be referred to.


The first follower amplifier sub-circuit may further include a parameter setting sub-circuit 111e. One input terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit 111e is configured to receive a user code input by a user, and the other input terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit 111e is configured to receive the input of one half of a sum of the value of the setting parameter corresponding to the Nth gamma correction circuit and the value of the setting parameter corresponding to the (N+1)th gamma correction circuit.


An output terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit 111e is electrically coupled to an input terminal of the first parameter register 111a, so as to generate the parameter used by the first parameter register according to the user code and the value received by the other input terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit.


Optionally, the first follower amplifier sub-circuit 111 may further include a parameter setting sub-circuit 111e. One input terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit 111e is configured to receive a user code input by a user, and the other input terminal of the parameter setting sub-circuit 111e is configured to receive the input of one half of a sum of a value (denoted by G5 in the drawings) of a setting parameter corresponding to the fifth gamma correction circuit and a value (denoted by G6 in the drawings) of a setting parameter corresponding to the sixth gamma correction circuit.


Specifically, in the case where the power management device includes 10 gamma correction circuits, the first five gamma correction circuits output positive voltages, and the last five gamma correction circuits output negative voltages. The semi-analog supply voltage HAVDD is between the fifth gamma correction voltage and the sixth gamma correction voltage. Therefore, in the process of generating the semi-analog supply voltage, one half of the sum of the value (denoted by G5 in the drawings) of the setting parameter corresponding to the fifth gamma correction circuit and the value (denoted by G6 in the drawings) of the setting parameter corresponding to the sixth gamma correction circuit needs to be referred to.

As shown in FIG. 6, a first electrode of the first boost transistor T1 is electrically coupled to a pulse signal terminal LX1, a second electrode of the first boost transistor T1 is grounded, and a gate of the first boost transistor T1 is electrically coupled to a first output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131. The first output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131 is configured to output a first switch control signal which causes the first boost transistor T1 to operate in a switching region. That is, the first boost transistor T1 serves as a switching transistor.


A first electrode of the second boost transistor T2 is electrically coupled to a pulse signal terminal LX1, a second electrode of the second boost transistor T2 is electrically coupled to the built-in voltage input terminal SWI, and a gate of the second boost transistor T2 is electrically coupled to a second output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131. The second output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131 is configured to output a second switch control signal which controls the second boost transistor T2 to operate in a switching region. That is, the second boost transistor T2 serves as a switching transistor.


A first electrode of the third boost transistor T3 is electrically coupled to the built-in voltage input terminal SWI, a second electrode of the third boost transistor T3 is electrically coupled to a power output terminal SWO, and a gate of the third boost transistor T3 is electrically coupled to a third output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131. The third output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131 is configured to provide, to the third boost transistor T3, an amplification control signal which causes the third boost transistor T3 to operate in an amplification region.


A compensation terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131 is electrically coupled to a compensation signal input terminal COMP, and a fourth output terminal of the boost control sub-circuit 131 is electrically coupled to the power output terminal SWO, so that the fourth output terminal can output the analog supply voltage AVDD under the control of the first boost transistor T1, the second boost transistor T2, the third boost transistor T3, pulse signals input from the pulse signal input terminals LX1, a built-in voltage input from the built-in voltage input terminal SWI, and a compensation voltage input from the compensation signal input terminal.


It should be noted that a main function of the first boost transistor T1 and the second boost transistor T2, which serve as the switching transistors, is to adjust the waveform of the analog supply voltage AVDD. A main function of the third boost transistor T3 is to control the magnitude of the analog supply voltage AVDD.


Specifically, waveforms of the pulse signals input from the pulse signal input terminals LX1 may be changed by controlling w % ben the first boost transistor T1 is turned on and how long the first boost transistor T1 remains in an on state, and the analog supply voltage AVDD is finally obtained by superposing the built-in voltage input from the built-in voltage input terminal SWI and the second boost transistor T2 and the pulse signals the waveforms of which have been adjusted.


It should be noted that although two pulse signal input terminals LX1 are provided in the specific implementation illustrated in FIG. 6, the two pulse signal input terminals LX1 are electrically coupled to each other, and are supplied with the same signals. With the arrangement of the two pulse signal terminals LX1, the input pulse signals are more stable. In some embodiments, only one pulse signal terminal LX1 may be provided.
