[0031] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 The display device 100 includes a pixel array, and the pixel array includes a plurality of pixel units, wherein each of the plurality of pixel units may include Figure 1The circuit architecture shown in . In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device 100 includes a current source 110, a voltage comparator 120, an emission control unit 130 and a light emitting unit 140. The current source 110 is coupled between the operating voltage VDD_LEU and the emission control unit 130. The emission control unit 130 is further coupled to the voltage comparator 120 and the light emitting unit 140, and receives an emission enable signal EM. The light emitting unit 140 is coupled between the emission control unit 130 and the voltage VSS_LEU. The voltage VSS_LEU is lower than the operating voltage VDD_LEU. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the current source 110 is configured to output a supply current SI to the emission control unit 130. The voltage comparator 120 is configured to receive voltage data VD and a ramp signal SS. The voltage comparator 120 outputs a comparison signal CS to the emission control unit 130 according to the voltage data VD and the ramp signal SS, and the emission control unit 130 outputs a drive current DI to the light emitting unit 140 according to the supply current SI, the emission enable signal EM and the comparison signal CS. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the emission enable signal EM, the voltage data VD and the ramp signal SS may be provided from a plurality of driving circuits respectively arranged outside or within the plane of the display device 100 through data lines and / or scan lines.

[0032] Figure 2 According to the present disclosure Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the signals of the illustrated embodiment. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the voltage comparator 120 may receive the voltage data VD and the ramp signal SS. At time t1, the voltage of the ramp signal SS begins to rise to form a ramp waveform. Since the voltage of the ramp signal SS is lower than the voltage of the voltage data VD, the voltage comparator 120 outputs a comparison signal CS having a high voltage level. During the enable period from time t1 to time t3, the emission control unit 130 receives the emission enable signal EM having a high voltage level. After time t2, since the voltage of the ramp signal SS is higher than the voltage of the voltage data VD, the voltage comparator 120 outputs a comparison signal CS having a low voltage level. Therefore, during the emission period EP from time t1 to time t2, the emission control unit 130 outputs a driving current DI to drive the light emitting unit 140.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the voltage comparator 120 may further receive a pulse width modulation (PWM) scanning signal, and perform voltage programming on the voltage data VD according to the pulse width modulation scanning signal. The display device 100 may determine the emission period EP by controlling the voltage level of the voltage data VD. If the voltage level of the voltage data VD is higher, the time length of the emission period EP is longer. If the voltage level of the voltage data VD is lower, the time length of the emission period EP is shorter. The time length of the emission period EP of the drive current DI is determined by the voltage data VD and the ramp signal SS. In other words, the pixel unit can be dimmed by the voltage data VD to determine the time length of the turnlight period of the pixel unit. In addition, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramp signal SS is a ramp-up signal, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the ramp signal SS may be a ramp-down signal.

[0039] Figure 4 According to the present disclosure Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the signals of the illustrated embodiment. Figure 3 and Figure 4During the period from time t0 to time t1, the voltage of the pulse width modulation scanning signal SPWM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistors 321 and 325. The data line DL transmits the voltage data VD having the pulse width modulation data. During the period from time t1 to time t2, the voltage of the pulse amplitude modulation scanning signal SPAM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistor 311. The data line DL transmits the voltage data VD having the pulse amplitude modulation data. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the voltage of the emission enable signal EM changes from a low voltage level to a high voltage level, thereby turning off the transistors 322 and 332, and turning on the transistor 334. During the emission period from time t2 to time t5, the voltage of the emission enable signal EM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistors 322 and 332, and turning off the transistor 334.

[0040] In the first ramp signal type 401, the voltage comparator 320 may receive a ramp signal SS. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the ramp signal SS has a high voltage level, and the node voltage N1 changes from a relatively high voltage level to a threshold voltage (Vth). During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, since the transistor 334 is turned on, the node voltage N2 is maintained at a low voltage level. At time t2, the ramp signal SS (ramp down signal) begins to decline, and the node voltages N1 and N2 change from the threshold voltage (Vth) to a relatively high voltage level, so that the transistor 335 is turned on to provide a driving current to the light emitting unit 340. At time t2, the light emitting unit 340 is illuminated. During the emission period from time t2 to time t5, the voltage of the ramp signal SS decreases, and the node voltage N1 decreases synchronously. After time t4, since the node voltage N1 is lower than the threshold voltage, after the voltage is inverted, the transistor 331 is turned off and the transistor 333 is turned on. Therefore, the node voltage N2 changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, so that the transistor 335 is turned off and the light emitting unit 340 is also turned off. Among them, the display device 300 can implement an effective dimming function for the light emitting unit 340. It should be noted that the light emitting unit 340 is first lit during the on period (lighting period) P1 (all light emitting units are lit), and then the light emitting unit 340 is turned off during the off period (dimming period) P2 to implement data setting (all light emitting units are turned off sequentially or simultaneously).

[0041] In the second ramp signal type 402, the voltage comparator 320 may receive a ramp signal SS'. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the ramp signal SS' has a low voltage level, and the node voltage N1 changes from a relatively low voltage level to a threshold voltage (Vth). During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, since the transistor 334 is turned on, the node voltage N2 is maintained at a low voltage level. At time t2, the ramp signal SS' (ramp rising signal) starts to rise, and the node voltage N1 changes from the threshold voltage (Vth) to a relatively low voltage level, so that the transistor 335 is turned off and the light emitting unit 340 is also turned off. During the period from time t2 to time t3, the voltage of the ramp signal SS' rises, and the node voltage N1 rises synchronously. After time t3, since the node voltage N1 is higher than the threshold voltage, after the voltage is inverted, the node voltage N2 changes from a low voltage level to a high voltage level, so that the transistor 331 is turned on and the transistor 333 is turned off. Therefore, the transistor 335 is turned on and the light emitting unit 340 is lit. Among them, the display device 300 can implement an effective dimming function for the light emitting unit 340. It should be noted that the light emitting unit 340 is first turned off during the off period (dimming period) P2' to implement data setting (all light emitting units are turned off), and then the light emitting unit 340 is lit during the on period (lighting period) P1' (all light emitting units are lit sequentially or simultaneously).

[0048] Figure 6 According to the present disclosure Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the signals of the illustrated embodiment. Figure 5 and Figure 6During the period from time t0 to time t1, the voltage of the pulse width modulation scanning signal SPWM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistors 521 and 525. The data line DL transmits the voltage data VD having the pulse width modulation data. During the period from time t1 to time t2, the voltage of the pulse amplitude modulation scanning signal SPAM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistor 511. The data line DL transmits the voltage data VD having the pulse amplitude modulation data. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the voltage of the emission enable signal EM changes from a low voltage level to a high voltage level, thereby turning off the transistors 522 and 532, and turning on the transistor 534. During the emission period from time t2 to time t5, the voltage of the emission enable signal EM changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, thereby turning on the transistors 522 and 532, and turning off the transistor 534.

[0049] In the first signal type 601, the voltage comparator 520 may receive a ramp signal SS'. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the ramp signal SS' has a high voltage level, and the node voltage N1 changes from a relatively low voltage level to a threshold voltage (Vth). During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, since the transistor 534 is turned on, the node voltage N2 is maintained at a low voltage level. At time t2, the ramp signal SS' (ramp rising signal) begins to rise, the node voltage N1 changes from the threshold voltage (Vth) to a relatively low voltage level, and the node voltage N2 changes from a low voltage level to a high voltage level, so that the transistor 535 is turned on to provide a driving current to the light emitting unit 540. At time t2, the light emitting unit 540 is lit. During the emission period from time t2 to time t5, the voltage of the ramp signal SS' rises, and the node voltage N1 rises synchronously. After time t4, since the node voltage N1 is higher than the threshold voltage, the transistor 531 is turned off and the transistor 533 is turned on. Therefore, the node voltage N2 changes from a high voltage level to a low voltage level, so that the transistor 535 is turned off and the light-emitting unit 540 is also turned off. Among them, the display device 500 can implement an effective dimming function for the light-emitting unit 540. It should be noted that the light-emitting unit 540 is first lit during the on period (lighting period) P1 from time t2 to time t4 (all light-emitting units are lit), and then the light-emitting unit 540 is turned off during the off period (dimming period) P2 from time t4 to time t5 to implement data setting (all light-emitting units are turned off sequentially or simultaneously). The total time length of the sum of the time lengths of the on period P1 and the off period P2 is equal to the emission period (time t2 to time t5).

[0050] In the first signal type 602, the voltage comparator 520 may receive a ramp signal SS. During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, the ramp signal SS has a high voltage level, and the node voltage N1 changes from a relatively high voltage level to a threshold voltage (Vth). During the data setting period from time t0 to time t2, since the transistor 534 is turned on, the node voltage N2 is maintained at a low voltage level. At time t2, the ramp signal SS (ramp down signal) starts to decrease, and the node voltage N1 changes from the threshold voltage (Vth) to a relatively high voltage level. The node voltage N2 is maintained at a low voltage level, so that the transistor 535 is turned off and the light emitting unit 540 is also turned off. During the off period (dimming period) P2' from time t2 to time t3, the voltage of the ramp signal SS decreases, and the node voltage N1 decreases synchronously. After time t3, since the node voltage N1 is lower than the threshold voltage, the node voltage N2 changes from a low voltage level to a high voltage level, so after the voltage is inverted, the transistor 531 is turned on and the transistor 533 is turned off. Therefore, the transistor 535 is turned on and the light-emitting unit 540 is lit. Among them, the display device 500 can implement an effective dimming function for the light-emitting unit 540. It should be noted that the light-emitting unit 540 is first turned off during the off period (dimming period) P2' to implement data setting (all light-emitting units are turned off), and then the light-emitting unit 350 is lit during the on period (lighting period) P1' from time t3 to time t5 (all light-emitting units are lit sequentially or simultaneously). The total time length of the sum of the time lengths of the on period P1' and the off period P2' is equal to the emission period (time t2 to time t5).
