Abstract

The invention discloses a TFT (thin film transistor) threshold voltage compensation method, a TFT (thin film transistor) threshold voltage compensation circuit, a shift register and a display device. The compensation circuit comprises an input end, an output end connected with a source electrode of a thin film transistor, a first resistor to a Kth resistor, which are sequentially connected with one another in series, a Kth connectable hinge and at least one connectable hinge, wherein the first resistor to the Kth resistor jointly divide the supply voltage input to the input end under the action of the switching on or off of the connectable hinges to control the voltage difference between a grid electrode and a source electrode of the thin film transistor to be equal to the current threshold voltage. In the scheme of the embodiment of the invention, a voltage division circuit with the connectable hinges is used for dividing the voltage input to the source electrode of the thin film transistor), so that when the voltage of the grid electrode of the thin film transistor is invariable, the voltage of the grid electrode and the source electrode of the thin film transistor is changed by changing the voltage of the source electrode; and therefore, the leakage current of the thin film transistor when the thin film transistor is turned off can be controlled, and the thin film transistor can be normally turned on and off.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of display technology, in particular to a thin film transistor (Thin Film Transistor, TFT) threshold voltage compensation circuit and method, a shift register and a display device. Background technique [0002] Gate-driver on Array (GOA) technology can use TFT to realize the circuit function of the shift register, and integrate the shift register on the pixel array substrate. GOA and the pixel substrate can be completed under the same process technology, thus simplifying the production process of the entire display device. [0003] Although the GOA technology has the above advantages, its current problem is that the shift register integrated on the array substrate is highly dependent on the characteristics of the TFT, especially the current threshold voltage of the TFT has a huge impact on the stability of the shift register. . This is because the non-uniformity of the current threshold voltage or the deviat...
