Problems solved by technology

And since the magnitude of the current through transistor 206 is the same as the V of transistor 206 SD voltage is proportional, so the V of transistor 206 SD When the voltage becomes smaller, the current passing through the transistor 206 will also become smaller, further reducing the brightness of the OLED 208
In this way, due to the aging phenomenon of the OLED 208, the brightness of the OLED 208 will be reduced, resulting in burn marks also appearing on the display screen.

[0049] Please refer to image 3 , which shows an OLED pixel circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention. The OLED pixel circuit 300 is composed of a transistor 302 , a transistor 304 , an OLED 306 , a capacitor 308 , a transistor 310 (ie, a driving transistor) and a transistor 312 . In this example, the above four transistors are all realized by an N-type transistor, for example, all are realized by an N-type thin film transistor.

[0050] image 3 OVDD shown is a power voltage provided by a power voltage supply circuit (not shown). The OVSS shown in the figure is a power supply voltage for reference, such as a ground potential. The power supply voltage OVDD is greater than the power supply voltage OVSS. In addition, one source / drain of the transistor 302 is used to receive the display data DATA. The gates of the transistors 302 and 304 are both used to receive the scan signal G n , where n is a natural number, and G n Indicates the scanning signal trans...

[0076] Through the teaching of the first embodiment, those skilled in the art should know that even if the transistor 312 in the OLED pixel circuit 300 is implemented as a P-type transistor, such as a P-type thin film transistor, it can also Realize the present invention, as Figure 6 shown.

[0077] Figure 6 An OLED pixel circuit according to another embodiment of the present invention is shown. exist Figure 6 In the OLED pixel circuit 600 shown, the transistor 312 has been implemented as a P-type transistor, and the gate of the transistor 312 is also coupled to the scan signal G n . while in Figure 6 In the rest of the notation, with the image 3 The same symbols in represent the same components or signals. The advantage of changing the transistor 312 to a P-type transistor is that the OLED pixel circuit 600 does not need to use the scan signal G n The inverted signal XG n , making the inverted signal XG n can be omitted, and the organic light emitting diode pix...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an organic light emitting diode display technology, and in particular to an organic light emitting diode pixel circuit. Background technique [0002] Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) displays use organic light emitting diodes as display elements. The organic light emitting diode is a device driven by current, and its luminous brightness will change with the current passing through the organic light emitting diode. Therefore, how to accurately control the current passing through the OLED has become an important issue in the development of the OLED panel. [0003] Please refer to figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a known OLED display. The OLED display 100 includes a scan driving circuit 110 , a data driving circuit 120 , a power voltage supply circuit 130 and an OLED display panel 140 . The OLED display panel 140 further includes a plurality of scan lines (as indicated by 142 ), a plurality of data lines (...
