[0050] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. And in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0051] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in the present invention shall have the usual meanings understood by persons of ordinary skill in the field to which the present invention belongs. The words "first", "second" and similar terms used in the present invention do not indicate any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. Words such as "include" or "comprise" mean that the elements or objects preceding the word include the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Words such as "connect" or "connected" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.
[0052] It should be noted that the sizes and shapes of the figures in the accompanying drawings do not reflect the actual scale and are only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention. The same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions.
[0053] The display device provided by the embodiment of the present invention may include a display panel. The display panel may include a substrate. The substrate may include a display area and a non-display area (i.e., an area in the substrate except for the area surrounded by the display area). The display area may include a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array. Exemplarily, each pixel unit includes sub-pixels of the same color or sub-pixels of multiple different colors. For example, a pixel unit may include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, so that red, green, and blue can be mixed to achieve color display. Alternatively, a pixel unit may also include a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, a blue sub-pixel, and a white sub-pixel, so that red, green, blue, and white can be mixed to achieve color display. Of course, in actual applications, the luminous color of the sub-pixels in the pixel unit can be designed and determined according to the actual application environment, and is not limited here.
[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, each sub-pixel may include a pixel circuit and a light-emitting device coupled to the pixel circuit. The pixel circuit may include a driving transistor to control the light-emitting device to emit light, thereby enabling the display panel to display images. Due to factors such as process and aging, the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor may drift, affecting the generated drive current and resulting in poor display quality. Therefore, compensation for the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor is required. However, existing technologies employ compensation for the threshold voltage Vth simultaneously with data charging, resulting in slow compensation and charging speeds, making it unsuitable for high-frequency circuits.
[0055] Based on this, an embodiment of the present invention provides a pixel circuit, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a driving transistor M0 and a data write circuit 10. The data write circuit 10 is coupled to the driving transistor M0, a fixed voltage signal terminal REF, a data voltage terminal DA, a first scan signal terminal SS1, and a second scan signal terminal SS2. The driving transistor M0 can be configured to generate a current that drives the light-emitting device L to emit light based on the data voltage. The data write circuit 10 can be configured to input the data voltage in response to a loaded signal.
[0056] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the data write circuit 10 includes: a first data write transistor M1, a second data write transistor M2 and a distributed capacitor C1; wherein, the gate of the first data write transistor M1 is coupled to the first scan signal terminal SS1, the gate of the second data write transistor M2 is coupled to the second scan signal terminal SS2, the first electrode of the first data write transistor M1 is coupled to the data voltage terminal DA, the second electrode of the first data write transistor M1 is coupled to the first electrode of the second data write transistor M2, and the second electrode of the second data write transistor M2 is coupled to the first electrode of the driving transistor M0; the first electrode of the distributed capacitor C1 is coupled to the second electrode of the first data write transistor M1, and the second electrode of the distributed capacitor C1 is coupled to the fixed voltage signal terminal REF.
[0057] Exemplarily, the first data write transistor M1 can be turned on under the control of the effective level of the first scan signal transmitted on the first scan signal terminal SS1, and can be turned off under the control of the ineffective level of the first scan signal. For example, the first data write transistor M1 can be set as a P-type transistor, then the effective level of the first scan signal is a low level, and the ineffective level of the first scan signal is a high level. Alternatively, the first data write transistor M1 can also be set as an N-type transistor, then the effective level of the first scan signal is a high level, and the ineffective level of the first scan signal is a low level. And the first electrode of the first data write transistor M1 can be its source, and the second electrode of the first data write transistor M1 can be its drain, or the first electrode of the first data write transistor M1 can be its drain, and the second electrode of the first data write transistor M1 can be its source.
[0058] Exemplarily, the second data write transistor M2 can be turned on under the control of the effective level of the second scan signal transmitted on the second scan signal terminal SS2, and can be turned off under the control of the ineffective level of the second scan signal. For example, the second data write transistor M2 can be set as a P-type transistor, then the effective level of the second scan signal is a low level, and the ineffective level of the second scan signal is a high level. Alternatively, the second data write transistor M2 can also be set as an N-type transistor, then the effective level of the second scan signal is a high level, and the ineffective level of the second scan signal is a low level. And the first electrode of the second data write transistor M2 can be its source, and the second electrode of the second data write transistor M2 can be its drain, or the first electrode of the second data write transistor M2 can be its drain, and the second electrode of the second data write transistor M2 can be its source.
[0059] For example, within the refresh range of a display frame, the effective level of the first scanning signal and the effective level of the second scanning signal do not overlap. Non-overlapping means that the first data write transistor M1 and the second data write transistor M2 are not turned on at the same time, thereby further improving compensation and charging speeds.
[0060] For example, within the refresh range of a display frame, the duration of the effective level of the first scanning signal is greater than the duration of the effective level of the second scanning signal, that is, the conduction time of the first data writing transistor M1 is greater than the conduction time of the second data writing transistor M2, so that the data signal can be fully written and stored in the distributed capacitor C1.
[0061] The pixel circuit provided by an embodiment of the present invention, by providing a first data write transistor, a second data write transistor, and a distributed capacitor in the data write circuit, can first input the data voltage on the data line into the distributed capacitor before compensating the threshold voltage Vth of the drive transistor, charge the distributed capacitor with data, and store the data voltage in the distributed capacitor. Subsequently, the threshold voltage Vth compensation process is performed using the data voltage stored in the distributed capacitor, achieving time-sharing of threshold voltage Vth compensation and data charging. This eliminates the need for threshold voltage Vth compensation, allowing more time for compensation, improving the compensation effect, and enhancing the display quality at low grayscales.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the driving transistor M0 can be configured as a P-type transistor; wherein the first electrode of the driving transistor M0 can be its source, the second electrode of the driving transistor M0 can be its drain, and when the driving transistor M0 is in a saturated state, current flows from the source of the driving transistor M0 to its drain. Of course, the driving transistor M0 can also be configured as an N-type transistor, which is not limited here.
[0063] Furthermore, the light-emitting device L generally emits light under the action of the current when the driving crystal M0 is in a saturated state. Of course, in the embodiments of the present invention, the driving crystal M0 is only described as a P-type transistor. If the driving crystal M0 is an N-type transistor, the design principle is the same as the present invention and also falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0064] In the pixel circuit provided by the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the pixel circuit further includes: an initialization circuit 20, a threshold compensation circuit 30, and a light emitting control circuit 40;
[0065] The initialization circuit 20 is respectively coupled to the first reset signal terminal CS1, the first initial voltage signal terminal VINIT1, the second reset signal terminal CS2, the second initial voltage signal terminal VINIT2, the gate of the driving transistor M0, and the anode of the light-emitting device L. The initialization circuit 20 is configured to be coupled to the first reset signal terminal CS1 and initialize the gate of the driving transistor M0 under the control of the signal of the first reset signal terminal CS1; and to be coupled to the second reset signal terminal CS2 and initialize the anode of the light-emitting device L under the control of the signal of the second reset signal terminal CS2.
[0066] The threshold compensation circuit 30 is coupled to the third scan signal terminal SS3, the first power supply terminal VDD, and the gate and second electrodes of the driving transistor M0. The threshold compensation circuit 30 is configured to be coupled to the third scan signal terminal SS3 and, under the control of the signal at the third scan signal terminal SS3, compensate the threshold voltage Vth of the driving transistor M0.
[0067] The light emitting control circuit 40 is respectively coupled to the first power supply terminal VDD, the first electrode and the second electrode of the driving transistor M0, and the light emitting device L. The light emitting control circuit 40 is configured to be coupled to the light emitting signal terminal EM. Under the control of the signal of the light emitting control signal terminal EM, the first power supply terminal VDD is electrically connected to the first electrode of the driving transistor M0, and the second electrode of the driving transistor M0 is electrically connected to the anode of the light emitting device L, thereby driving the light emitting device L to emit light.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2a and 2b As shown, the initialization circuit 20 includes: a first transistor M3 and a second transistor M4; wherein, the gate of the first transistor M3 is coupled to the first reset signal terminal CS1, the first electrode of the first transistor M3 is coupled to the first initial voltage signal terminal VINIT1, and the second electrode of the first transistor M3 is coupled to the gate of the driving transistor M0; the gate of the second transistor M4 is coupled to the second reset signal terminal CS2, the first electrode of the second transistor M4 is coupled to the second initial voltage signal terminal VINIT2, and the second electrode of the second transistor M4 is coupled to the anode of the light-emitting device L.
[0069] For example, the first transistor M3 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the first reset signal transmitted on the first reset signal terminal CS1, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the first reset signal. For example, the first transistor M3 is configured as an N-type transistor, and the active level of the first reset signal is a high level, and the inactive level of the first reset signal is a low level.
[0070] For example, the second transistor M4 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the second reset signal transmitted on the second reset signal terminal CS2, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the second reset signal. For example, the second transistor M4 is configured as a P-type transistor, and the active level of the second reset signal is a low level, and the inactive level of the second reset signal is a high level.
[0071] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2a and 2b As shown, the first reset signal terminal CS1 coupled to the first transistor M3 and the second reset signal terminal CS2 coupled to the second transistor M4 can be different signal terminals. For example, the first reset signal terminal CS1 and the second reset signal terminal CS2 can be loaded with different signals.
[0072] In specific implementation, in the embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2a and 2b As shown, the first transistor M3 is configured as an N-type transistor, wherein the first electrode of the first transistor M3 serves as its drain and the second electrode of the first transistor M3 serves as its source, or the first electrode of the first transistor M3 serves as its source and the second electrode of the first transistor M3 serves as its drain.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2a and 2b As shown, the threshold compensation circuit 30 includes: a storage capacitor C2 and a third transistor M5; wherein, the first electrode of the storage capacitor C2 is coupled to the gate of the driving transistor M0, and the second electrode of the storage capacitor C2 is coupled to the first power supply terminal VDD; the gate of the third transistor M5 is coupled to the third scan signal terminal SS3, the first electrode of the third transistor M5 is coupled to the second electrode of the driving transistor M0, and the second electrode of the third transistor M5 is coupled to the gate of the driving transistor M0.
[0075] Exemplarily, the third transistor M5 can be turned on under the control of the effective level of the third scan signal transmitted on the third scan signal terminal SS3, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the third scan signal. For example, the third transistor M5 can be set as a P-type transistor, then the effective level of the third scan signal is a low level, and the inactive level of the third scan signal is a high level. Alternatively, the third transistor M5 can also be set as an N-type transistor, then the effective level of the third scan signal is a high level, and the inactive level of the third scan signal is a low level. Wherein, the first electrode of the third transistor M5 serves as its drain, and the second electrode of the third transistor M5 serves as its source, or the first electrode of the third transistor M5 serves as its source, and the second electrode of the third transistor M5 serves as its drain.
[0076] Exemplarily, the duration of the effective level of the third scan signal is longer than the duration of the effective level of the second scan signal, that is, the on-time of the third transistor M5 is longer than the on-time of the second data writing transistor M2.
[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2a and 2bAs shown, the light-emitting control circuit 40 includes: a first light-emitting transistor M6 and a second light-emitting transistor M7; wherein, the gate of the first light-emitting transistor M6 is coupled to the light-emitting control signal terminal EM, the first electrode of the first light-emitting transistor M6 is coupled to the first power supply terminal VDD, and the second electrode of the first light-emitting transistor M6 is coupled to the first electrode of the driving transistor M0; the gate of the second light-emitting transistor M7 is coupled to the light-emitting control signal terminal EM, the first electrode of the second light-emitting transistor M7 is coupled to the second electrode of the driving transistor M0, and the second electrode of the second light-emitting transistor M7 is coupled to the anode of the light-emitting device L.

For example, the first light-emitting transistor M6 and the second light-emitting transistor M7 can be configured as P-type transistors, in which case the active level of the light-emitting control signal is a low level, and the inactive level of the light-emitting control signal is a high level. Alternatively, the first light-emitting transistor M6 and the second light-emitting transistor M7 can be configured as N-type transistors, in which case the active level of the light-emitting control signal is a high level, and the inactive level of the light-emitting control signal is a low level.

For example, the light-emitting device L can include: a micro light-emitting diode (Micro Light Emitting Diode, MicroLED), an organic electroluminescent diode (Organic Light Emitting Diode, OLED) and a quantum dot light-emitting diode (Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes, QLED) at least one. Exemplarily, the light-emitting device L can include a stacked anode, a light-emitting layer, and a cathode. Furthermore, the light-emitting layer can also include film layers such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer. Of course, in actual applications, the specific structure of the light-emitting device L can be determined according to the needs of the actual application, and is not limited here.
[0081] The embodiments of the present invention provide some pixel circuits, such as Figure 2b As shown, the present invention further includes a noise reduction circuit 50, wherein the noise reduction circuit 50 is coupled to the driving transistor M0, the fixed voltage signal terminal REF, and the noise reduction signal terminal CS3. The noise reduction circuit 50 is configured to provide the signal of the fixed voltage signal terminal REF to the first electrode of the driving transistor M0 under the control of the signal of the noise reduction signal terminal CS3.

[0083] Exemplarily, the noise reduction signal terminal CS3 and the second reset signal terminal CS2 may be the same signal terminal, so as to reduce the number of signal terminals and reduce the difficulty of signal line layout.
[0084] Of course, the noise reduction signal terminal CS3 and the second reset signal terminal CS2 may also be independent signal terminals, which is not limited here.
[0085] Generally, transistors using low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) as active layers have high mobility and can be made thinner and smaller, with lower power consumption. In a specific implementation, the active layer of at least one of the transistors can be made of low-temperature polysilicon. This allows the transistor to be an LTPS transistor, thereby achieving high mobility in the pixel circuit, and allowing it to be made thinner and smaller, with lower power consumption.
[0086] Generally, transistors using metal oxide semiconductor materials as their active layers have low leakage current. Therefore, in order to reduce leakage current, in some embodiments of the present invention, the active layer of at least one of the transistors may include a metal oxide semiconductor material, such as IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide). Of course, other metal oxide semiconductor materials are also possible and are not limited here. In this way, the transistor can be configured as an oxide thin film transistor, thereby reducing leakage current in the pixel circuit.
[0087] For example, all transistors can be set as LTPS transistors. Alternatively, all transistors can be set as oxide transistors. Alternatively, some transistors can be set as oxide transistors, and the remaining transistors can be set as LTPS transistors. By combining the two processes for preparing transistors, LTPS transistors and oxide transistors, to prepare an LTPO pixel circuit of low-temperature polysilicon oxide, the leakage current of the gate of the driving transistor M0 can be reduced, and the power consumption can be lowered. Thus, the pixel circuit is applied to a display panel, and when the display panel reduces the refresh frequency for display, the uniformity of the display can be guaranteed.
[0088] Illustratively, in an embodiment of the present invention, N-type transistors (e.g., the first transistor M3, the third transistor M5) can be set as LTPS-type transistors, and P-type transistors (e.g., the first data write transistor M1, the second data write transistor M2, the second transistor M4, the first light-emitting transistor M6, the second light-emitting transistor M7, the fourth transistor M8) can be set as oxide-type transistors.
[0089] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first power supply terminal VDD can be configured to load a constant first power supply voltage, and the first power supply voltage is generally positive. And the second power supply terminal VSS can be configured to load a constant second power supply voltage, and the second power supply voltage is generally a ground voltage or a negative value. For example, Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the first power supply terminal VDD can be loaded with a constant first power supply voltage Vdd, which is a positive voltage. The second power supply terminal VSS can be loaded with a constant second power supply voltage Vss, which is a negative voltage or grounded. In actual applications, the specific values of the first power supply voltage and the second power supply voltage can be designed and determined based on the actual application environment and are not limited here.
[0090] The above is merely an example to illustrate the specific structure of each circuit in the pixel circuit provided by the embodiment of the present invention. In specific implementation, the specific structure of the above circuit is not limited to the above structure provided by the embodiment of the present invention, and can also be other structures known to those skilled in the art. These are all within the scope of protection of the present invention and are not specifically limited here.
