Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the current level shift circuit structure, the positive and negative levels are converted step by step. For example, only VDD is raised to VGH in the first stage conversion circuit, and GND is lowered to VGL in the second stage conversion circuit. The circuit The structure is not simple enough, the driving method is not simple and effective enough, and there is still room for improvement

[0066] This embodiment provides a level shift circuit driving method corresponding to the level shift circuit in Embodiment 1, which can amplify the voltage and use the amplified voltage to drive pixels, wherein the level shift circuit includes a control Unit 1, selection unit 2 and output unit 3, the driving method includes a stage of outputting a positive voltage and a stage of outputting a negative voltage, wherein:

[0067] In the positive voltage output stage: the input signal and the positive logic voltage of turning on the power enter the control unit 1, and the control signal opposite to the input signal is generated in the control unit 1. Under the control of the control signal, the selection unit 2 selects the polarity corresponding to the turning on of the power. The high-level power supply of the driving power supply is output through the output unit 3;

[0068] In the negative voltage output stage: the input signal and the negative logic voltage of turning on the ...

Embodiment 3

[0078] Correspondingly, this embodiment provides a pixel driving circuit, which includes the level shift circuit of Embodiment 1 and adopts the driving method of the level shift circuit of Embodiment 2.

[0079] The pixel drive circuit has high reliability and can better realize display, and is especially suitable for being applied to a gate drive circuit in a liquid crystal display device LCD. Among them, the high-level signal VGH and the low-level signal VGL are the control levels acting on the gate drive terminal of the TFT-LCD pixel. When VGH is valid, the thin film transistor corresponding to the control pixel is turned on, and the new pixel data voltage Write pixel capacitance; when the VGL level is valid, control the thin film transistor corresponding to the pixel to turn off, so as to ensure that the pixel data voltage of this row is not modified.
