COLOR SEQUENTIAL LIQUID CRYSTAL MICRODISPLAY WITH THIN GAP AND METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME

摘要

An active matrix color sequential liquid crystal display has an active matrix circuit, a counterelectrode panel and an interposed layer of liquid crystal. The active matrix display is located in a portable microdisplay system that has a display computer that generates images to be displayed on the liquid crystal display and connected to the active matrix liquid crystal display. A data link transmits data at a rate of speed of greater than 200 Mbytes per second in series for at least a portion between the display computer and the active matrix liquid crystal display. In a preferred embodiment, the display system has a randomizing device that alternates the amplifier through which an analog video signal passes. In another embodiment, the display system comprises three LEDs of different colors which are sequentially flashed during each frame. After each flashing step, the pixel electrodes are initialized to a set voltage.
