Embodiment
The preferable feature of embodiment chosen of the present invention will explain with reference to accompanying drawing.The present invention's spirit and scope are not limited to selected these embodiment as illustrative purposes.It should be noted that these accompanying drawings should not be considered as any specific size or ratio.In the present invention's scope, hereinafter described any structure and material all can suitably be changed.
As shown in Figure 2, the present invention has designed a kind of brightness and has adjusted function, makes that the stereovision of picture still is maintained, and also can reduce power consumption when brightness is turned down when the brightness of making plasma display is adjusted.Its method is different from the known technology part and is power is made change to the curve of display rate itself, and just when brightness was turned down, power is to the just downward revision of curve of display rate, and was same, and when brightness was heightened, power was just upwards revised the curve of display rate.Hence one can see that, the adjustment of brightness will be accompanied by consumed power change but not in the known technology, the variation of simple gray-level.
The principle of Fig. 3 for being applied in brightness control method one preferred embodiment of the present invention.The method according to power adjustment adjust the curve of the power of image itself to display rate.Will be among the figure with 250 watts and 230 watts keep pulse (sustain pulse) frequency f sCurve to display rate explains, and finerly keeps pulsed frequency f with modulation sOr display rate obtains desired brightness effects.
As shown in Figure 3, when power is turned down to 230 watt-hours by 250 watts, under identical display rate, 250 watts of pairing pulsed frequency f that keep 1Be higher than 230 watts of pairing pulsed frequency f that keep 2, that is to say, when under same picture, desiring to keep identical display rate, can obtain on 230 watts of powertrace than the low pulsed frequency f that keeps that operates on 250 watts of powertrace 1'.In addition, under same picture, keep under the pulsed frequency identical, Fig. 3 has also presented the phenomenon of 250 watts of powertrace than 230 watts of higher display rates of powertrace, therefore the present invention is when increasing brightness and improving power consumption, also can increase the brightness of picture, and keep grey originally.
As shown in the above, when doing the brightness adjustment, can adjust power consumption, keep pulsed frequency f with adjustment sAs foundation, so that under different brightness, keep the quality of image frame.
With reference to shown in Figure 3, just keep pulsed frequency f with adjustment sBe example, under identical display rate, keep pulsed frequency by f 1Change into f 2The time, consumed power is reduced to 230 watts by 250 watts, thereby reaches the effect of saving the energy.To adjust power consumption is example, is f keeping pulsed frequency equally 2The time, consumed power is if increase to 250 watts by 230 watts, and display rate will improve relatively, therefore increase the brightness of original picture.
Fig. 4 is the schematic block diagram of brightness adjusting device, is the gray scale intensities treatment mechanism of exemplary embodiments of the present invention shown in the figure.
With reference to shown in Figure 4, this brightness adjusting device comprises brightness controller 100, gray scale adjuster 200, power controller 300, subgraph field processor 400 and plasma display module 500.
At first, brightness controller 100 obtains extraneous control signal S 1, at this moment, the first luminance video signal S 2Input gray level adjuster 200, brightness controller 100 then output gray level are adjusted signal S 3Adjust signal S with power 4Subsequently, gray scale is adjusted signal S 3Input to gray scale adjuster 200, make the luminance video signal S that wins 2After linear or nonlinear adjustment, the output video gray scale is adjusted signal S 5, this video gray scale is adjusted signal S 5Adjust signal S with power 4 Power input controller 300 all then, and the video gray scale is adjusted signal S 5Then adjust signal S according to power 4After power is adjusted, produce subgraph field control signal S 6, receive and produce by subgraph field processor 400 again and drive the required scan-data signal S of plasma display module 500 7
The internals of plasma display module 500 comprises scan line driver 510, addressed line driver 520 and Plasmia indicating panel 530, and wherein scan line driver 510 and addressed line driver 520 are responsible for driving each pixel unit circuit in the Plasmia indicating panel 530.
Above-mentioned control signal S 1Can be by the adjustment of operating brightness manually, or by sensor to external world brightness induction and change automatically.With a preferred embodiment is example, and the user can adjust the slope of brightness to gray scale according to the personal like by the pattern of manual adjustment.As shown in Figure 5, within certain grey, this figure is an example with 255 grades, adjusts the slope of brightness to gray scale.When heightening brightness, increase slope, and when turning down brightness, reduce slope.
With another preferred embodiment is example, if be connected to brightness controller 100 with the sensor (not shown) earlier, then can utilize sensor light sensing situation to external world itself, under self-adjusting pattern, carry out the action of above-mentioned change brightness, can obtain keeping the effect of image picture quality equally the gray scale slope.
Fig. 6 be power controller 300 the internals block scheme and with the annexation of periphery, this power controller 300 comprises display rate adjuster 310 and automatic power controller 320.
This display rate adjuster 310 receives from the power of brightness controller 100 adjusts signal S 4, again power is adjusted signal S to the curve of display rate according to power 4Adjust, and with this information input automatic power controller 320, automatic power controller 320 just can be adjusted signal S with the video gray scale 5Convert subgraph field control signal S to 6, and input subgraph field processor 400.
The process steps that Fig. 7 takes for one of brightness control method of the present invention preferred embodiment.At first, receive first luminance video signal and gray scale and adjust signal S701, judge it is to do the gray scale translation with linear or nonlinear mode to adjust S702 again, according to the result who judges first luminance video signal is adjusted signal according to gray scale respectively again and be linear or nonlinear adjustment S703/S704, just export the video gray scale that is produced afterwards and adjust signal S705, next step is that received power is adjusted signal and the video gray scale is adjusted signal S706, (keeps pulsed frequency f to adjust power consumption again s) power adjusts S707, again the video gray scale is adjusted signal and adjusted signal power consumption adjustment according to power and do and keep pulsed frequency f sAdjust the subgraph field control signal S708 that last output is again produced.
Though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; any person of ordinary skill in the field; without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; when can doing a little change and improvement, so the present invention's protection domain is as the criterion when looking the claim person of defining.
