Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a pixel circuit, a driving method and a display device. Background Art

[0002] In the field of AMOLED (active matrix organic light-emitting diode) displays, with the widespread application of display products, the size of display products has increased, and the demand for thinness and battery life has required display products to save power and lower display frequencies. Currently, LTPS (low-temperature polysilicon) display products are used. Due to the characteristics of intrinsic TFT (thin-film transistor), leakage current still exists when the TFT is turned off. There is a difference in voltage when maintaining the display and refreshing for a long time, resulting in subjective observation of brightness changes and flickering in the same grayscale. The leakage current of LTPS transistors is in E -13 The lower the display frequency, the longer the hold time, the longer the leakage current, the more obvious the difference in the brightness of the light-emitting element, and the more flickering. Conventional technical means are to reduce leakage current through design and process, but there is limited room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0063] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0064] The transistors used in all embodiments of the present disclosure may be thin film transistors, field effect transistors, or other devices with the same characteristics. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, to distinguish the two electrodes of the transistor except the gate, one electrode is referred to as the first electrode and the other electrode is referred to as the second electrode.

[0065] In actual operation, when the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field effect transistor, the first electrode may be a drain electrode, and the second electrode may be a source electrode; or, the gate electrode may be a gate electrode, the first electrode may be a source electrode, and the second electrode may be a drain electrode.

[0066] The pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present invention includes a light-emitting element, a driving circuit, a compensation circuit, a compensation control circuit and a data writing circuit;

[0067] The compensation circuit is electrically connected to the control terminal of the driving circuit, and is used to maintain the potential of the control terminal of the driving circuit during a hold frame included in a display cycle;

[0068] The compensation control circuit is electrically connected to the scanning end, the control end of the driving circuit and the second end of the driving circuit respectively, and is used to control the communication between the control end of the driving circuit and the second end of the driving circuit under the control of the scanning signal provided by the scanning end;

[0069] The data writing circuit is electrically connected to the scanning terminal, the data line and the first terminal of the driving circuit respectively, and is used to write the data voltage provided by the data line into the first terminal of the driving circuit under the control of the scanning signal;

[0070] The driving circuit is used to drive the light emitting element under the control of the potential of the control terminal.

[0071] The pixel circuit described in the embodiment of the present invention adopts a compensation circuit. The compensation circuit can maintain the potential of the control end of the driving circuit during the holding frame included in the display cycle, so that the potential of the control end of the driving circuit can be maintained for a long time at low frequency, thereby improving the display quality at low frequency, achieving low frequency and low power consumption, and increasing battery life, thereby increasing application scenarios.

[0072] The embodiment of the present invention does not increase the process flow and difficulty, and the cost does not change, and can achieve the improvement of low-frequency image quality capabilities of display products.

[0073] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the compensation circuit maintains the potential of the control end of the driving circuit in the holding frame, which may refer to: in the holding frame, the compensation circuit maintains the potential of the control end of the driving circuit, so that the absolute value of the difference between the potential of the control end of the driving circuit in the holding frame and the potential of the control end of the driving circuit in the refresh frame is less than a predetermined voltage difference, so that the potential of the control end of the driving circuit in the holding frame is approximately the same as the potential of the control end of the driving circuit in the refresh frame; the predetermined voltage difference may be, for example, less than or equal to 0.1V, but is not limited thereto.

[0074] In a specific implementation, the pixel circuit may include a compensation control circuit and a data writing circuit. The compensation control circuit controls the connection between the control end of the driving circuit and the second end of the driving circuit under the control of the scanning signal. The data writing circuit writes the data voltage to the first end of the driving circuit under the control of the scanning signal.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, the pixel circuit according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a light emitting element EL, a driving circuit 10, a compensation circuit 11, a compensation control circuit 41 and a data writing circuit 42;

[0076] The compensation circuit 11 is electrically connected to the control terminal of the driving circuit 10 and is used to maintain the potential of the control terminal of the driving circuit 10 during the hold frame included in the display cycle;

[0077] The compensation control circuit 41 is electrically connected to the scanning terminal G1, the control terminal of the driving circuit 10, and the second terminal of the driving circuit 10, respectively, and is used to control the communication between the control terminal of the driving circuit 10 and the second terminal of the driving circuit 10 under the control of the scanning signal provided by the scanning terminal G1;

[0078] The data writing circuit 42 is electrically connected to the scan terminal G1, the data line Data and the first terminal of the driving circuit 10 respectively, and is used to write the data voltage Vdata provided by the data line Data into the first terminal of the driving circuit 10 under the control of the scan signal;

[0079] The driving circuit 10 is configured to drive the light emitting element EL under the control of the potential of the control terminal thereof.

[0080] In the related art, when the p-type transistor is turned off, the leakage current is E -13 Level, the leakage current Ioff can be equal to K(W / L)×(Vgs-Vth) 2 , Vth is the threshold voltage, Vgs is the gate-source voltage, and when the p-type transistor is turned off, the current value of Ioff changes as the potential of the gate of the transistor increases.

[0081] In related art, with the demand for low power consumption, based on a display resolution of 1080×2340, when the display frequency is 120Hz and 30Hz, the refresh frame duration and the hold frame duration included in one frame are as follows:

[0082] When the display frequency is 120Hz, the refresh frame duration is (1 / 120 / (2340+16))s, the refresh frame duration is 3.537us, and the hold frame duration is 8329.796us;

[0083] When the display frequency is 30 Hz, the refresh frame duration is (1 / 30 / (2340+16))s, the refresh frame duration is 14.148us, and the hold frame duration is 33319.185us.

[0084] According to preliminary estimates, when the display frequency is 30Hz, the time it takes to maintain a frame is four times the time it takes to maintain a frame when the display frequency is 120Hz. Assuming the same leakage current, when the display frequency is 30Hz, the leakage charge is four times the leakage charge when the display frequency is 120Hz. As a result, when maintaining the frame, the voltage at the control end of the drive circuit drops a lot, resulting in different drive currents and different display brightness of the light-emitting elements. When the display frequency is low, obvious differences can be felt, resulting in flickering defects.
