Abstract

The embodiments of the present invention provide an AMOLED pixel unit and a drive method therefor, and a display device. The AMOLED pixel unit comprises: a compensation unit, a light-emitting control unit, a driving transistor, a storage capacitor and an organic light-emitting diode, wherein the compensation unit is used for transmitting a data line signal to the gate electrode and a first electrode of the driving transistor in the case of being powered on under a scanning line signal, and transmitting a reference power supply signal to a first end of the storage capacitor at the same time; the light-emitting control unit is used for transmitting a first power supply signal to the first electrode of the driving transistor in the case of being powered on under a light-emitting control line signal, and powering on the first end of the storage capacitor and the gate electrode of the driving transistor at the same time so as to drive the organic light-emitting diode to emit lights; and the anode of the organic light-emitting diode is connected to a second end of the storage capacitor, and the cathode thereof is connected to a second power supply signal. The circuit can effectively compensate the threshold voltage drift and non-uniformity of the transistor and the voltage non-uniformity of the organic light-emitting diode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the display field, and in particular relates to an AMOLED pixel unit, a driving method thereof, and a display device. Background technique [0002] Organic light-emitting display diodes (OLEDs), as a current-mode light-emitting device, have been increasingly used in high-performance displays. Traditional passive matrix organic light-emitting display (Passive Matrix OLED) requires a shorter driving time of a single pixel as the display size increases, so it needs to increase the transient current and increase power consumption. At the same time, the application of high current will cause the voltage drop on the ITO line to be too large, and the working voltage of the OLED will be too high, thereby reducing its efficiency. The active matrix organic light-emitting display (Active Matrix OLED) can solve these problems well by inputting OLED current through the progressive scanning of switching tubes. [0003] In AMOLED backplane ...
