[0040] It should be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. may be used to describe switch units, transistors, signal lines, etc. in the embodiments of the present application, these switch units, transistors, signal lines, etc. should not be limited to these terms.

[0041] The applicant in this case has provided a solution to the problems existing in the prior art through careful and in-depth research.
[0042] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the detection circuit shown in FIG. Figure 3 for Figure 2 A timing diagram of the detection circuit shown.
[0043] The present application embodiment provides a detection circuit 001, combined with Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the detection circuit 001 includes a detection signal line TL, a detection port Po and a switch module 10. The detection signal line TL is used to transmit a detection signal V1, which can be a high level signal; the detection port Po receives the detection signal V1 through the switch module 10.
[0044] The switch module 10 includes a first switch unit 11 and a second switch unit 12. The input end 11A of the first switch unit 11 is electrically connected to the input end 12A of the second switch unit 12, and is used to receive the detection signal V1 transmitted on the detection signal line TL. The output end 11B of the first switch unit 11 is electrically connected to the output end 12B of the second switch unit 12, and is used to transmit the detection signal V1 to the detection port Po.
[0045] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the input end 11A of the first switch unit 11 and the input end 12A of the second switch unit 12 are both electrically connected to the detection signal line TL; the output end 11B of the first switch unit 11 and the output end 12B of the second switch unit 12 are both electrically connected to the detection port Po. The detection signal V1 transmitted on the detection signal line TL can be transmitted to the detection port Po through the first switch unit 11 or the second switch unit 12.
[0046] Among them, the first switch unit 11 includes a first control terminal 11C, which is electrically connected to the first signal line SL1; the second switch unit 12 includes a second control terminal 12C, which is electrically connected to the second signal line SL2; the time period during which the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 controls the first switch unit 11 to be turned on is different from the time period during which the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 controls the second switch unit 12 to be turned on.
[0047] That is, the detection port Po receives the detection signal V1 on the detection signal line TL through the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 in a time-sharing manner.
[0048] Specifically, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 The working process of the detection circuit 001 includes a first stage T1 and a second stage T2; in the first stage T1, the first signal line SL1 transmits a valid signal to control the first switch unit 11 to turn on, and in the second stage, the second signal line SL2 transmits a valid signal to control the second switch unit 12 to turn on. The detection port Po receives the detection signal V1 in both the first stage T1 and the second stage T2.
[0049] It can be understood that when the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 in the first stage T1, it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted on the first signal line SL1, and the circuit using the signal on the first signal line SL1 as a driving signal in the display device cannot work properly; when the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 in the second stage T2, it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted on the second signal line SL2, and the circuit using the signal on the second signal line SL2 as a driving signal in the display device cannot work properly. Of course, the circuit using both the signal on the first signal line SL1 and the signal on the second signal line SL2 as driving signals in the display device cannot work properly either.
[0050] It should be noted that, in the present application, errors in the signals transmitted on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 include the situation that the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 are short-circuited or open-circuited.
[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, the detection circuit 001 can perform real-time detection on the signals transmitted on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2, and determine whether the signal transmitted on the first signal line SL1 or the second signal line SL2 is erroneous by detecting the detection signal V1 received by the detection port Po, thereby determining whether the circuit in the display device that uses the signal on the first signal line SL1 and / or the signal on the second signal line SL2 as a driving signal can work normally, which is beneficial for the display device to promptly process the error information appearing in the aforementioned circuit, and avoid the display device displaying error information.
[0052] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present application, the first switch unit 11 includes a first transistor M1, a first electrode of the first transistor M1 is electrically connected to an input terminal 11A of the first switch unit 11, a second electrode is electrically connected to an output terminal 11B of the first switch unit 11, and a gate is electrically connected to a first control terminal 11C, that is, the first switch unit 11 may include only one transistor.
[0053] The first electrode of the first transistor M1 may be its source, and the second electrode of the first transistor M1 may be its drain. Of course, in some other embodiments, the first electrode of the first transistor M1 may also be its drain, and the second electrode of the first transistor M1 may be its source.
[0054] The second switch unit 12 includes a second transistor M2, a first electrode of the second transistor M2 is electrically connected to the input terminal 12A of the second switch unit 12, a second electrode is electrically connected to the output terminal 12B of the second switch unit 12, and a gate is electrically connected to the second control terminal 12C, that is, the second switch unit 12 can include only one transistor.
[0055] The first electrode of the second transistor M2 may be its source, and the second electrode of the second transistor M2 may be its drain. Of course, in some other embodiments, the first electrode of the second transistor M2 may also be its drain, and the second electrode of the second transistor M2 may be its source.
[0056] The first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 have the same channel type.
[0057] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 are both N-type transistors. Of course, the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 can also be P-type transistors.
[0058] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the channel types of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 may also be different.
[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the channel types of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2 are set to be the same, then the enable signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 is the same as the enable signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2. Moreover, since the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 have different opening periods, the period during which the first signal line SL1 transmits the enable signal is different from the period during which the second signal line SL2 transmits the enable signal. The first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 can output the enable signal alternately.
[0060] Optionally, the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 is 180°, that is, the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 may be anti-phase signals.
[0061] In an application scenario of an embodiment of the present application, a gate drive circuit is generally used in a display device to transmit a scan signal, and commonly used gate drive circuits include a GIP circuit using a gate in panel (GIP) technology, a GOA circuit using a gate driver on array (GOA) technology, and an amorphous silicon gate (ASG) circuit, etc. The gate drive circuit generally receives clock signals that appear in pairs, and the pair of clock signals are generally inverted signals.
[0062] The detection circuit 001 provided in the embodiment of the present application can monitor the clock signal received by the gate driving circuit in real time, and determine whether the gate driving circuit in the display device can transmit the correct scanning signal by detecting whether the clock signal is wrong.
[0063] Combine the following Figure 2 and Figure 3 right Figure 2The working process of the detection circuit 001 shown is described.
[0064] In the first stage T1, the first signal line SL1 transmits an enable signal, i.e., a high level signal, and the first transistor M1 is turned on; the second signal line SL2 transmits a low level signal, and the second transistor M2 is turned off. The detection signal V1 on the detection signal line TL is transmitted to the detection port Po through the turned-on first transistor M1.
[0065] In the second stage T2, the first signal line SL1 transmits a low level signal, the first transistor M1 is turned off, the second signal line SL2 transmits an enable signal, i.e. a high level signal, the second transistor M2 is turned on, and the detection signal V1 on the detection signal line TL is transmitted to the detection port Po through the turned-on second transistor M2.
[0066] When the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 in the first stage T1, it indicates that the first transistor M1 is not turned on in the first stage T1, thereby indicating that the first transistor M1 does not receive the high-level signal that the first signal line SL1 should transmit, and further it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted on the first signal line SL1.
[0067] When the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 in the second stage T2, it indicates that the second transistor M2 is not turned on in the second stage T2, thereby indicating that the second transistor M2 does not receive the high-level signal that the second signal line SL2 should transmit, and further it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted on the second signal line SL2.
[0068] Of course, for a circuit that uses the signals on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 as driving signals at the same time, it is only necessary to determine whether the signal transmitted by at least one of the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 is wrong, without determining whether it is the signal transmission error on the first signal line SL1 or the signal transmission error on the second signal line SL2.
[0069] For example, Figure 3 As shown, it is assumed that the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 transmit the clock signals required by the gate drive circuit respectively, and the clock signals transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 are inverted signals. During the operation of the detection circuit 001, when the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1, it can be determined that the signal transmitted by at least one of the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 is wrong, thereby determining that the gate drive circuit cannot work normally.
[0070] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 5 for Figure 4A timing diagram of the detection circuit shown, Figure 6 A schematic diagram of another detection circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 for Figure 6 A timing diagram of the detection circuit shown.
[0071] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first switch unit 11 further includes a third control terminal 11D, which is electrically connected to the third signal line SL3, and the period during which the third signal line SL3 transmits the enable signal is at least partially the same as the period during which the first signal line SL1 transmits the enable signal.
[0072] The second switch unit 12 further includes a fourth control terminal 12D, which is electrically connected to a fourth signal line SL4 , and a period during which the fourth signal line SL4 transmits an enable signal is at least partially the same as a period during which the second signal line SL2 transmits an enable signal.
[0073] That is, the signals transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the third signal line SL3 jointly control the switching state of the first switch unit 11 ; the signals transmitted by the second signal line SL2 and the fourth signal line SL4 jointly control the switching state of the second switch unit 12 .
[0074] In a technical solution of an embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 As shown, the first switch unit 11 includes a first transistor M1 and a third transistor M3, the first electrode of the first transistor M1 is electrically connected to the input terminal 11A of the first switch unit 11, the second electrode is electrically connected to the first electrode of the third transistor M3, and the gate is electrically connected to the first control terminal 11C; the second electrode of the third transistor M3 is electrically connected to the output terminal 11B of the first switch unit 11, and the gate is electrically connected to the third control terminal 11D.
[0075] The second switch unit 12 includes a second transistor M2 and a fourth transistor M4, wherein a first electrode of the second transistor M2 is electrically connected to an input terminal 12A of the second switch unit 12, a second electrode is electrically connected to a second electrode of the first transistor M1, a first electrode of the third transistor M3 and a first electrode of the fourth transistor M4, and a gate is electrically connected to a second control terminal 12C; a second electrode of the fourth transistor M4 is electrically connected to an output terminal 12B of the second switch unit 12, and a gate is electrically connected to a fourth control terminal 12D.

[0077] Optionally, the channel types of the first transistor M1 , the second transistor M2 , the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 are all the same.
[0078] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 is 180°, and the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the third signal line SL3 and the signal transmitted by the fourth signal line SL4 is 180°.
[0079] In this technical solution, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the period during which any one of the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 transmits the enable signal overlaps with the period during which any one of the third signal line SL3 and the fourth signal line SL4 transmits the enable signal, the detection port Po can receive the detection signal V1. When the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 during the period during which it should receive the detection signal V1, it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted by at least one of the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3 and the fourth signal line SL4, and thus it can be determined that the circuit using the signal on the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3 and the fourth signal line SL4 as the driving signal cannot work normally.
[0080] It should be noted that when it is necessary to monitor the signals on more signal lines, Figure 4 On the basis of the detection circuit shown, the number of transistors can be increased in the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 to meet the requirements. The connection mode of adjacent transistors in the first switch unit 11 is the same as the connection mode of the first transistor M1 and the third transistor M3, the connection mode of adjacent transistors in the second switch unit 12 is the same as the connection mode of the second transistor M2 and the fourth transistor M4, and the connection mode between the corresponding transistors in the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 is the same as the connection mode of the first transistor M1 and the second transistor M2.
[0081] In another technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, Figure 6As shown, the first switch unit 11 includes a first transistor M1 and a third transistor M3, the first electrode of the first transistor M1 is electrically connected to the input terminal 11A of the first switch unit 11, the second electrode is electrically connected to the first electrode of the third transistor M3, and the gate is electrically connected to the first control terminal 11C; the second electrode of the third transistor M3 is electrically connected to the output terminal 11B of the first switch unit 11, and the gate is electrically connected to the third control terminal 11D.
[0082] The second switch unit 12 includes a second transistor M2 and a fourth transistor M4, wherein a first electrode of the second transistor M2 is electrically connected to an input terminal 12A of the second switch unit 12, a second electrode is electrically connected to a first electrode of the fourth transistor M4, and a gate is electrically connected to a second control terminal 12C; a second electrode of the fourth transistor M4 is electrically connected to an output terminal 12B of the second switch unit 12, and a gate is electrically connected to a fourth control terminal 12D.
[0083] Among them, the first electrode of the first transistor M1 can be one of its source and drain, and the second electrode can be the other of its source and drain; the first electrode of the second transistor M2 can be one of its source and drain, and the second electrode can be the other of its source and drain; the first electrode of the third transistor M3 can be one of its source and drain, and the second electrode can be the other of its source and drain; the first electrode of the fourth transistor M4 can be one of its source and drain, and the second electrode can be the other of its source and drain.
[0084] Optionally, the channel types of the first transistor M1 , the second transistor M2 , the third transistor M3 and the fourth transistor M4 are all the same.
[0085] Furthermore, if Figure 7 As shown, the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the signal transmitted by the fourth signal line SL4 is 180°, and the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 and the signal transmitted by the third signal line SL3 is 180°.
[0086] In this technical solution, combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the period of the first signal line SL1 transmitting the enable signal overlaps with the period of the third signal line SL3 transmitting the enable signal, or when the period of the second signal line SL2 transmitting the enable signal overlaps with the period of the fourth signal line SL4 transmitting the enable signal, the detection port Po can receive the detection signal V1. Figure 7As shown, the detection signal V1 can be a high-level signal. When the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 during the period when it should receive it, it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted by at least one of the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3, and the fourth signal line SL4, so that it can be determined that the circuit using the signal on the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3, and the fourth signal line SL4 as the driving signal cannot work normally.

[0088] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the switch module 10 further includes a third switch unit 13, which is connected in parallel with the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12, and the period during which the third switch unit 13 is turned on is different from the period during which the first switch unit 11 and the second switch unit 12 are turned on.
[0089] That is to say, the detection port Po can receive the detection signal V1 through the first switch unit 11 , the second switch unit 12 , and the third switch unit 13 in a time-division manner.
[0090] Specifically, the input end 13A of the third switch unit 13 is electrically connected to the input end 11A of the first switch unit 11 and the input end 12A of the second switch unit 12 , and the output end 13B is electrically connected to the output end 11B of the first switch unit 11 and the output end 12B of the second switch unit 12 .
[0091] The third switch unit 13 includes a fifth transistor M5 and a sixth transistor M6, wherein a first electrode of the fifth transistor M5 is electrically connected to an input terminal 13A of the third switch unit 13, a second electrode is electrically connected to a first electrode of the sixth transistor M6, and a gate is electrically connected to a fifth signal line SL5; a second electrode of the sixth transistor M6 is electrically connected to an output terminal of the third switch unit 13, and a gate is electrically connected to a sixth signal line SL6. The time period during which the fifth signal line SL5 transmits an enable signal is at least partially the same as the time period during which the sixth signal line SL6 transmits an enable signal, that is, the signals transmitted on the fifth signal line SL5 and the sixth signal line SL6 jointly control the switch state of the third switch unit 13.
[0092] Optionally, the fifth transistor M5 and the sixth transistor M6 have the same channel type as the first transistor M1. Of course, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5 and the sixth transistor M6 may all have the same channel type.
[0093] Furthermore, if Fig. 9 As shown, the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the first signal line SL1 and the signal transmitted by the sixth signal line SL6 is 180°, the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the second signal line SL2 and the signal transmitted by the third signal line SL3 is 180°, and the phase difference between the signal transmitted by the fourth signal line SL4 and the signal transmitted by the fifth signal line SL5 is 180°.
[0094] In the present application embodiment, combined Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, when the period of the first signal line SL1 transmitting the enable signal overlaps with the period of the third signal line SL3 transmitting the enable signal, or when the period of the second signal line SL2 transmitting the enable signal overlaps with the period of the fourth signal line SL4 transmitting the enable signal, or when the period of the fifth signal line SL5 transmitting the enable signal overlaps with the period of the sixth signal line SL6 transmitting the enable signal, the detection port Po can receive the detection signal V1. Fig. 9 As shown, the detection signal V1 can be a high-level signal. When the detection port Po does not receive the detection signal V1 during the period when it should receive it, it can be determined that an error occurs in the signal transmitted by at least one of the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3, the fourth signal line SL4, the fifth signal line SL5, and the sixth signal line SL6, so that it can be determined that the circuit using the signal on the first signal line SL1, the second signal line SL2, the third signal line SL3, the fourth signal line SL4, the fifth signal line SL5, and the sixth signal line SL6 as the driving signal cannot work normally.
[0095] It should be noted that when it is necessary to monitor the signals on more signal lines, Figure 8 On the basis of the detection circuit shown, the detection circuit 001 can increase the number of switch units connected in parallel to meet the requirements, and the time periods during which the switch units are turned on are different from each other.

[0097] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel 100 , and the display panel 100 includes a detection circuit 001 and a gate driving circuit 002 as provided in the above embodiment.
[0098] The gate driving circuit 002 is electrically connected to the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2, and can generate a scanning signal under the control of the signal transmitted on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2. The gate driving circuit 002 can be any one of a GIP circuit, a GOA circuit and an ASG circuit.
[0099] Optionally, the first signal line SL1 transmits a first clock signal, and the second signal line SL2 transmits a second clock signal, and the phase difference between the first clock signal and the second clock signal is 180°. That is, the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 transmit clock signals of opposite phases to the gate driving circuit 002 .
[0100] In the display panel 100, the detection circuit 001 can perform real-time detection on the signals transmitted on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2, and determine whether the signals transmitted on the first signal line SL1 or the second signal line SL2 are erroneous by detecting the detection signal V1 received by the detection port Po, thereby determining whether the gate drive circuit 002 using the signals on the first signal line SL1 and the second signal line SL2 as drive signals can work normally, which is beneficial for the display panel 100 to process the error information of the gate drive circuit 002 in a timely manner, and avoid the display panel 100 from displaying error information.
