[0048] In this embodiment, the first transistor Ts1 to the twenty-second transistor Ts22 are all P-type thin film transistors.
[0049] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by electrically connecting one plate of the fifth capacitor C5 to the node I (first control node) of the first output circuit 402, and the other plate to the first low-level signal input terminal VGL1 of the first gate driving sub-circuit or the second low-level signal input terminal VGL2 of the second gate driving sub-circuit, instead of being electrically connected to the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1, the signal transmitted by the first control signal input terminal CTRL1 is prevented from being coupled to the potential of the signal transmitted by the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1 through the fifth capacitor C5. Since the first gate driving sub-circuit generates the first scanning signal Nscan1 (Nout2) according to the signals transmitted by the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1 and the first low-level signal input terminal VGL1, when the potential of the signal transmitted by the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1 is not affected by the coupling of the fifth capacitor C5, the potential of the first scanning signal Nscan1 (Nout2) will not be affected by the coupling of the fifth capacitor C5.
[0050] like Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown in the layout of the gate driving circuit, the first high level signal line VGH1 and the second high level signal line VGH2 of the display panel are located on a first side of the first low level signal line VGL1 of the first gate driving sub-circuit, and the fifth capacitor C5 is located on a second side of the first low level signal line VGL1 opposite to the first side, that is, when the other plate of the fifth capacitor C5 is electrically connected to the first low level signal line VGL1, the first low level signal line VGL1 is arranged between the whole formed by the first high level signal line VGH1 and the second high level signal line VGH2 and the fifth capacitor C5, and the second low level The signal line VGL2 is arranged on a side of the whole formed by the first high-level signal line VGH1 and the second high-level signal line VGH2 away from the fifth capacitor C5, or, when the other plate of the fifth capacitor C5 is electrically connected to the second low-level signal line VGL2, the second low-level signal line VGL2 is arranged between the whole formed by the first high-level signal line VGH1 and the second high-level signal line VGH2 and the fifth capacitor C5, and the first low-level signal line VGL1 is arranged on a side of the whole formed by the first high-level signal line VGH1 and the second high-level signal line VGH2 away from the fifth capacitor C5. Since one plate of the fifth capacitor C5 is electrically connected to the node I (first control node) of the first output circuit 402, and the other plate is electrically connected to the first low-level signal input terminal VGL1 of the first gate driving sub-circuit or the second low-level signal input terminal VGL2 of the second gate driving sub-circuit, rather than to the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1, the uneven layout of the first high-level signal line VGH1 and the second high-level signal line VGH2 caused by the need to occupy the routing space of the first high-level signal line VGH1 and / or the second high-level signal line VGH2 due to the electrical connection of the fifth capacitor C5 to the first high-level signal input terminal VGH1 is avoided, thereby avoiding the problem of uneven load of the first high-level signal line VGH1 and the second high-level signal line VGH2 caused by the uneven layout.
[0051] The first-stage transmission circuit 401 further includes a sixth capacitor C6 , one plate of the sixth capacitor C6 is electrically connected to the node G (the third control node), and the other plate of the sixth capacitor C6 is electrically connected to the first-stage transmission signal output terminal Nout1 .
[0052] In this embodiment, by setting the sixth capacitor C6 between the node G (the third control node) and the first-stage signal transmission output terminal Nout1, when the signal of the first-stage signal transmission output terminal Nout1 switches from a high potential to a low potential, the sixth capacitor C6 can pull down the potential of the node G (the third control node), and control the twenty-first transistor Ts21 to turn on through the potential of the node G (the third control node), thereby reducing the voltage of the portion of the output first scanning signal Nscan1 (Nout2) that presents a step-shaped waveform, ensuring the stability of the waveform of the first scanning signal output from the first scanning signal output terminal Nout2, and improving the circuit stability when the display device turns on the frequency division display function.
[0053] In addition, by setting the sixth capacitor C6 in the first-stage transmission circuit 401, the pulse width of the scanning signal output by each stage of the gate driving circuit can be effectively controlled, thereby avoiding the problem in the prior art that the pulse width of the first scanning signal gradually increases with the increase in the number of stages. This technical solution not only ensures that the scanning signal output by each stage of the gate driving circuit has a stable pulse width, but also avoids the signal interference problem between adjacent stages caused by the excessive pulse width of the first scanning signal Nscan1 (Nout2), thereby improving the working reliability of the gate driving circuit, and further improving the display quality of the display device.
