The drive commonly used at present is a purely digital display drive and a digital-analog hybrid display drive.
If the display capability of gamma 2.2 is to be realized, the contrast between the highest brightness and the lowest brightness needs to be larger than 60k, that is, at least 16 bits of resolution is needed to basically meet the requirement, but the cost is the requirement of large-area analogy and digital, and the area cost of the chip is greatly increased.
Referring to fig. 1, the digital-analog hybrid display driving:
(1): each Frame (Frame) of the display is broken into a plurality of subframes (Frame 1/2/3/.) and each subframe is turned on uled for a time of 1T/2T/4T/8T/16T ….
(2): The voltages V0 to VN are chosen to be linear in brightness, that is to say N is 1.
(3): By using the method of the a/b two points, a plurality of combinations of display brightness can be generated
(4): In this system, we assume that under the conditions of n=9 and 5 subframes, a combination of 0 to 279 can be generated, which can meet the requirement that a typical 8-bit display system needs to select 256 display outputs.
The contrast of this approach is only 279, far from the basic display requirements of Gamma 2.2.
Such an architecture is required to achieve the basic display requirements: n=256 and 9 subframes are required, faster update speed is required, and generally panel can support more than 5 subframes, then the requirement of n=256 also increases the chip area cost greatly.
The drawbacks of purely digital display driving and digital-analog hybrid display driving are that improvements in the iled driving are needed.
