[0040] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0041] In existing technologies, to achieve high-precision imaging, the array must have a size of 1000×1000 to 2000×2000 elements, with the target resolution capable of resolving objects with an accuracy of 0.5mm. The acquisition process involves simultaneous global acquisition, while the reading process is row-by-row. Due to the large number of rows and columns in the array, the difference in reading time between the first and last rows of a frame can be 1 second or more, placing very high demands on the signal retention capability during the post-acquisition signal retention process. During such a long period of holding, the original ultrasonic detection array pixel structure can produce a signal difference of up to 157% between the first and last rows (holding time 2s, 7uA for the first row, 18uA for the last row), which results in a row-by-row transition in the signal of a single-frame image, severe distortion, and reduced signal accuracy. At the same time, in order to ensure that the output of the entire image is within the measurement range (e.g., 1 to 30uA), the output change generated by the acoustic signal must not exceed 12uA, otherwise the last row will exceed the measurement range, greatly limiting the dynamic range of ultrasonic detection. Moreover, after subtracting the acoustic signal image from the silent signal image, the amount of pure acoustic signal obtained will also increase over time (holding time 2s, receiving the same signal, ΔIout = 1.49uA for the first row, ΔIout = 2.61uA for the last row), resulting in a row-by-row transition in the acoustic signal, with a distortion of 75%, which seriously interferes with the restoration of acoustic information. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the holding capability of the ultrasonic detection array.
[0042] The original 4T or 4T1C pixel structure is as follows Figure 1 As shown, during the holding process, M3 and M2 are both closed. Due to the jump voltage of the potential switching, the potential V4>VB≈VA, the VDS potential difference of M3 causes Ioff leakage current in M3. The Ioff leakage current can only be stored in the PVDF capacitor and through C1 of M2 (or M1 parasitic capacitance CGS, CGD), and has no other release path. It has a greater impact on the VA potential. The simulation results show that after 2s, I out Will increase from 7uA to 18uA (increase 11uA), receiving the same signal, ΔI out Increased from 1.49uA to 2.61uA (increased by 1.12uA), where I out Large changes indicate that a frame of image has obvious non-uniformity problems, such as Figure 2a As shown, this problem will make I out Due to the range limitation, in order to ensure that the entire image does not exceed the range, the ultrasonic detection dynamic range can only be reduced; ΔI out Large changes mean that the pure signal difference obtained by the sound signal and the silence signal has a gradient problem, such as Figure 2b shown.
[0043] To address the above-mentioned issues, the present invention provides a pixel driving circuit, a display device, and a driving method for the pixel driving circuit. By adding a current diversion module between the drain of the second transistor and the source of the third transistor, a more efficient flow path is provided for the leakage current of the third transistor, thereby reducing the impact of the leakage current of the third transistor on the first transistor, greatly improving the ability to maintain the gate potential of the first transistor, thereby maintaining the stability of the output current, improving the uniformity and accuracy of the collected signal, and reducing the impact of the limited detection range, further improving the dynamic range of ultrasonic detection. Specific implementation methods are described in the following embodiments.
[0044] An embodiment of the present invention provides a pixel driving circuit, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pixel driving circuit includes a pixel driving module and a current diversion module. The pixel driving module includes a second transistor M2 and a third transistor M3, wherein the drain of the second transistor M2 is connected to the source of the third transistor M3, the gate of the second transistor M3 receives the third data signal voltage V3, the gate of the third transistor M3 receives the second data signal voltage V2, and the drain of the third transistor M3 receives the first data signal voltage V1; the current diversion module is configured to provide a flow path for the leakage current of the third transistor M3, the current diversion module is connected to the drain of the second transistor M2 and the source of the third transistor M3, and receives a sixth data signal voltage signal to control the closing or conduction of the current diversion module.
[0045] The pixel driving circuit provided by the present invention provides a flow path for the leakage current of the third transistor by adding a diversion and diversion module at the connection point of the drain of the second transistor and the source of the third transistor (the position of node 2). When the diversion and diversion module does not exist, the leakage current of the third transistor can only flow through the second transistor and be stored in the capacitor. After the diversion and diversion module is added, the presence of the diversion and diversion module provides the third transistor with a path for the leakage current to pass more easily, thereby reducing the current flowing through the second transistor, realizing the diversion and diversion of the leakage current of the third transistor by the diversion and diversion module during the maintenance process, reducing the influence of the leakage current of the third transistor on node 1, greatly improving the VA holding ability during the maintenance process, that is, the holding ability of the gate potential of the first transistor, and thus maintaining the output current I of the read end. out It can improve the stability of the ultrasonic detection, enhance the uniformity and accuracy of the collected signal, reduce the impact of limited detection range, and further enhance the dynamic range of ultrasonic detection.
[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, the current diversion module includes a fifth transistor M5, wherein the source of the fifth transistor M5 receives the sixth data signal voltage V6; the source of the fifth transistor M5 is connected to the gate of the fifth transistor M5; and the drain of the fifth transistor M5 is connected to the drain of the second transistor M2 and the source of the third transistor M3. The resistance of the fifth transistor M5 is equal to the resistance of the third transistor M3, and the resistance of the second transistor M2 is greater than the resistance of the fifth transistor M5.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, the resistance between the source and drain of the fifth transistor in the off state is equal to or approximately equal to the resistance between the source and drain of the third transistor in the off state, and the resistance between the source and drain of the second transistor in the off state is greater than the resistance between the source and drain of the fifth transistor in the off state. Approximately equal means that there is a certain allowable error range between the resistance between the source and drain of the fifth transistor in the off state and the resistance between the source and drain of the third transistor in the off state. The allowable error range can be set as required and is not limited in this embodiment.
[0048] In this embodiment, after adding a fifth transistor at the node 2, the pixel circuit diagram is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, during the holding process, the potential gradient V4>VB>V6, when the fifth transistor does not exist, the leakage current path of the third transistor can only flow through the second transistor, and the presence of the fifth transistor provides the third transistor with a leakage current path that is easier to pass through, and the resistance M2>>M3≈M5. In this embodiment, the current flowing through the second transistor can be reduced by the resistance difference between the third transistor, the fifth transistor and the second transistor, so that the current is more easily released through the fifth transistor, and the leakage current of the third transistor is guided by the fifth transistor during the holding process, thereby reducing the impact of the leakage current of the third transistor on the node 1. For example, the data comparison Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the simulation verification is maintained for 2s. out Will increase from 10uA to 12uA (only 2uA increase), receiving the same signal, ΔI out It changes from 1.79uA to 1.73uA (an increase of only 0.06uA). It can be seen from the figure that the presence of the fifth transistor improves the ability to maintain VA during the holding process, that is, the ability to maintain the gate potential of M1, thereby stabilizing the output current, improving the uniformity and accuracy of the collected signal, and reducing the impact of limited detection range. It greatly improves the problems of uneven line and line signal distortion of the screen, reduces the range limit, and further improves the dynamic range of ultrasonic detection.

[0060] This embodiment provides an imaging device, which includes the display device described above. The display device can be used in the field of medical ultrasound imaging.
[0061] This embodiment provides a driving method for a pixel driving circuit, including:
[0062] In the first stage, a first scan control signal with a first voltage amplitude is applied to the drain of the third transistor, and a second scan control signal with a first voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the third transistor to turn on the third transistor; a third scan control signal with a first voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the second transistor to turn on the second transistor; a fourth scan control signal with a second voltage amplitude is applied to the drain of the first transistor, and a fifth scan control signal with a second voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the fourth transistor to turn on the first transistor and the fourth transistor; a sixth scan control signal with a second voltage amplitude is applied to the gate, source, and gate of the fifth transistor to turn off the fifth transistor;
[0063] In the second stage, a second scanning control signal having a second voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the third transistor to turn off the third transistor; and then a third scanning control signal having a second voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the second transistor to turn off the second transistor.
[0064] In the third stage, a second scanning control signal with a second voltage amplitude is continuously applied to the gate of the third transistor to turn off the third transistor; a fourth scanning control signal with a second voltage amplitude is continuously applied to the drain of the first transistor, and a fifth scanning control signal with a second voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the fourth transistor to turn on the first transistor and turn off the fourth transistor; a sixth scanning control signal with a second voltage amplitude is continuously applied to the gate and source of the fifth transistor to turn off the fifth transistor; and a third scanning control signal with a second voltage amplitude is continuously applied to the gate of the second transistor to turn off the second transistor.
[0065] In the fourth stage, a fourth scanning control signal with a first voltage amplitude is applied to the drain of the first transistor to turn off the first transistor; then a fifth scanning control signal with a first voltage amplitude is applied to the gate of the fourth transistor to turn on the fourth transistor and turn on the first transistor.
[0066] Optionally, the first voltage amplitude is a high level, and the second voltage amplitude is a low level.
[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to better understand the above pixel driving circuit and the driving method of the driving circuit, the working process of the above pixel circuit is described in detail below in combination with more specific embodiments.
[0068] Take NMOS transistor as an example to illustrate, combined with Figure 13 As shown, Figure 6 The working process of the pixel driving circuit is as follows:
[0069] (1) The first stage is the emission stage. The ultrasonic sound source emits ultrasonic waves. A constant voltage high level is applied to the V1 terminal and a high level is applied to the V2 terminal to turn on the third transistor M3. A high level is applied to the V3 terminal to turn on the second transistor M2. This resets the VA terminal and the VB terminal and writes the potential of the V1 terminal. A low level is applied to the V4 terminal and a low level is applied to the V5 terminal to turn off the fourth transistor M4. A constant voltage low level is applied to the V6 terminal to turn off the fifth transistor M5. At this time, the first transistor is in the on state.
[0070] (2) The second stage is the acquisition stage. When the array receives the ultrasonic echo signal, a low potential is applied to the V2 terminal, and then a low potential is applied to the V3 terminal, turning off the third transistor M3 first and then the second transistor M2. The closing nodes of M3 and M2 can be selected at the echo peak and trough moments or at the echo trough and peak moments, so that the echo peak value can be collected; a low level is applied to the V4, V5, and V6 terminals, turning off the fourth transistor M4 and the fifth transistor M5.
[0071] (3) The third stage is the holding stage. A low potential is applied to the V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 terminals to turn off the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3, the fourth transistor M4, and the fifth transistor M5. During the acquisition process, when V2 and V3 switch to low levels, the cgs, cgd, and other pixel parasitic capacitances of M3 and M2 cause voltage jumps at the VA and VB nodes. During the holding period, VA≈VB<V1, and the potential VB>V6. Therefore, the leakage current of M3 can be released through M5. By adjusting the V6 potential and the W / L of M5, the leakage current of M5 can be kept as low as possible, and at the same time, the resistance M2>>M3=M5 can be ensured. This can greatly reduce the path of current passing through M2 and improve the stability of the VA potential. At this time, the first transistor is in the open state.
[0072] (4) The fourth stage is the read stage. A high level is first applied to the V4 terminal, causing the first transistor M1 to operate in the saturation region. A high level is then applied to the V5 terminal, causing the fourth transistor M4 to turn on row by row. The source of M4 outputs the read current Iout. Optionally, a constant high voltage can also be applied to the V4 terminal during the fourth stage.
