Problems solved by technology

If the pixel's V thn Drift over time may cause different currents successively, resulting in residual image
And due to the non-uniformity of the OLED device, the OLED operating voltage is different, which will also cause the current difference
It will eventually lead to poor brightness uniformity and poor display effect

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic light-emitting display, in particular to a pixel circuit, a driving method thereof, and a display panel. Background technique [0002] The active matrix organic light emitting diode panel (Active Matrix / Organic Light Emitting Diode, AMOLED) can emit light is driven by the current generated by driving the thin film field effect transistor (Thin Film Transistor, TFT) in the saturated state, because the same input When the grayscale voltage is used, different threshold voltages will generate different driving currents, resulting in inconsistency of the currents. The uniformity of Vth in the low temperature polysilicon (LTPS) process is very poor, and the Vth also drifts. Therefore, the brightness uniformity of the traditional 2T1C circuit is very poor. [0003] figure 1 It is a traditional voltage-driven pixel circuit structure (2T1C) composed of 2 TFT transistors and 1 capacitor. Among th...
