Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a voltage compensation system, method, display panel, display device and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] With the development of display technology, organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays are increasingly being used in various portable electronic devices due to their advantages such as fast response speed, high luminous efficiency, high brightness and wide viewing angle.

[0003] The anode drive voltage ELVDD output by the power voltage signal line is transmitted to each row of pixel units to drive each row of pixel units to work. However, in application, ELVDD may fluctuate, causing the current flowing through the pixel unit to change, thereby causing the image of the display panel to fluctuate, affecting the uniformity and stability of the displayed image. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a voltage compensation system, method, display panel, display device and storage medium that can improve the uniformity and stability of the display screen in order to address the above technical problems.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a voltage compensation system, the voltage compensation system comprising:

[0006] A voltage detection circuit, used to measure the anode drive voltage of the pixel unit;

[0007] A voltage compensation circuit is connected to the voltage detection circuit, and the voltage compensation circuit is used to compensate the data voltage according to the jump amount when the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes.

[0008] The voltage compensation system described above can measure the anode drive voltage of a pixel unit via a voltage detection circuit. Because the voltage detection circuit is connected to the voltage compensation circuit, when the anode drive voltage fluctuates significantly, potentially significantly affecting the displayed image (i.e., when the jump in the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold), the voltage compensation circuit can compensate for the data voltage of the pixel unit, thereby reducing the impact of the anode drive voltage fluctuation and improving the uniformity and stability of the displayed image. Furthermore, because the first preset threshold is greater than the amplitude of the anode drive voltage fluctuation caused by coupling when the data voltage changes, changes in the grayscale value of the displayed image will not trigger the voltage compensation circuit to compensate for the data voltage, thus avoiding compensation of the anode drive voltage due to coupling of the data voltage. This prevents frequent changes in the data voltage, thereby avoiding the aggravation of crosstalk caused by compensation for ELVDD.

[0009] In one embodiment, the first preset threshold is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling, and the maximum fluctuation amplitude is the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes the most within the adjustable range.

[0010] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit is also used to record the limit fluctuation amplitude. When the number of the recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, the fluctuation limit is determined based on the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, and the first preset threshold is updated based on the fluctuation limit, where n≥1.

[0011] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit is further used to clear the recorded limit fluctuation amplitude and perform a calibration operation after the first preset threshold is updated according to the fluctuation limit. The calibration operation includes recording the limit fluctuation amplitude, and when the number of recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining the fluctuation limit according to the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, and updating the first preset threshold according to the fluctuation limit.

[0012] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit is further configured to determine the compensation amount according to the jump amount, and compensate the data voltage according to the compensation amount, wherein the sum of the compensation amount and the jump amount is zero.

[0013] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit is further configured to maintain a dormant state when the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode driving voltage is less than a first preset threshold.

[0014] In a second aspect, the present application provides a display panel comprising the voltage compensation system as described above.

[0015] The advantages of the above display panel over the prior art are the same as the advantages of the above voltage compensation system over the prior art, and will not be repeated here.

[0016] In a third aspect, the present application provides a display device comprising the display panel as described above.

[0017] The advantages of the above-mentioned display device over the prior art are the same as those of the above-mentioned display panel over the prior art, and are not further elaborated here.

[0018] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a voltage compensation method, the method comprising:

[0019] Obtaining the anode driving voltage of the pixel unit;

[0020] When the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode driving voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, the data voltage is compensated according to the jump amount, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage fluctuation caused by coupling when the data voltage is maximally adjusted.

[0021] In one embodiment, the method further comprises:

[0022] Recording the limit fluctuation amplitude;

[0023] When the number of the recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining the fluctuation limit value according to the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, where n≥1;

[0024] The first preset threshold is updated according to the fluctuation limit.

[0025] In one embodiment, after updating the first preset threshold according to the fluctuation limit, the method further includes:

[0026] The recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes are cleared and a calibration operation is performed, wherein the calibration operation includes: recording the extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and when the number of the recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining a fluctuation limit based on the latest recorded n extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and updating the first preset threshold based on the fluctuation limit.

[0027] In a fifth aspect, the present application further provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements the following steps:

[0028] Obtaining the anode driving voltage of the pixel unit;

[0029] When the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode driving voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, the data voltage is compensated according to the jump amount, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage fluctuation caused by coupling when the data voltage is maximally adjusted.

[0030] The above-described voltage compensation method and storage medium, by obtaining the anode drive voltage, allows the voltage compensation circuit to compensate the data voltage of the pixel unit when the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold value, thereby reducing the impact of anode drive voltage fluctuations and improving the uniformity and stability of the displayed image. In addition, because the first preset threshold value is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes, changes in the grayscale value of the displayed image will not trigger the voltage compensation circuit to compensate for the data voltage, avoiding the need to compensate the anode drive voltage due to coupling of the data voltage, thus avoiding frequent changes in the data voltage and thus avoiding the aggravation of crosstalk caused by compensating for ELVDD.

[0040] Although exemplary embodiments of a display module and a display device including a display module have been specifically described herein, many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, it will be understood that a display module constructed according to the principles of the present application and a display device including a display module may be implemented otherwise than as specifically described herein. The present application is further defined in the claims and their equivalents.

[0041] As described in the background art, with the development of display technology, organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays are increasingly being used in various portable electronic devices due to their advantages such as fast response speed, high luminous efficiency, high brightness and wide viewing angle.

[0042] The display panel includes multiple pixel units arranged in a matrix, each equipped with a pixel driver circuit. The display panel also includes a power chip and multiple power voltage signal lines connected to the power chip. The power chip is used to provide an anode drive voltage (ELVDD), and the power voltage signal lines are used to transmit the anode drive voltage (ELVDD) to the pixel driver circuit within each pixel unit. However, in applications, ELVDD may fluctuate, causing changes in the current flowing through the pixel unit, which in turn causes fluctuations in the display panel's image quality, affecting the uniformity and stability of the displayed image.

[0043] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a voltage compensation system 1 is provided, which includes a voltage detection circuit 11 and a voltage compensation circuit 12. The voltage detection circuit 11 is used to measure the anode drive voltage of the pixel unit; the voltage compensation circuit 12 is connected to the voltage detection circuit 11, and the voltage compensation circuit 12 is used to compensate the data voltage according to the jump amount when the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes.

[0044] The method can be used to determine the compensation amount based on the jump amount, and compensate the data voltage based on the compensation amount. The sum of the compensation amount and the jump amount can be zero. For example, if the jump amount is -A, the compensation amount is +A, where the symbol + represents a voltage rise, and the symbol - represents a voltage drop.

[0045] It can be understood that the voltage detection circuit 11 can be connected to the power supply voltage signal line to measure the anode driving voltage of the output value pixel driving circuit 21. The voltage detection circuit 11 measures the anode driving voltage and feeds it back to the voltage compensation circuit 12 in real time. When the voltage compensation circuit 12 detects the fluctuation of the anode driving voltage, it obtains the jump value of the fluctuation process of the voltage compensation circuit 12. When the absolute value of the jump value is greater than the first preset threshold value, the voltage compensation circuit 12 enters the working state from the sleep state, and then determines the compensation amount for ELVDD according to the jump value, and compensates the data voltage according to the compensation amount to reduce the impact of the anode driving voltage fluctuation on the display panel.

[0046] Optionally, the first preset threshold is greater than a limit fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage caused by coupling, and the limit fluctuation amplitude is a fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage undergoes a maximum change within an adjustable range.

[0047] In applications, the display screen may switch between black and white, that is, the grayscale value of the display screen may switch from 0 to 255, or from 255 to 0. When the display screen needs to switch between black and white, the data voltage will change the most within the adjustable range. At this time, the coupling of the data voltage will cause the anode drive voltage ELVDD to fluctuate greatly. If the first preset threshold is not set, such as Figure 2 As shown, Sck1 and Sck2 are scan signals, and ELVDD fluctuation will cause the voltage compensation circuit 12 to compensate for ELVDD, thereby causing the data voltage (corresponding to Figure 2 The source signal in the display panel also changes, and the compensation of ELVDD will have a certain delay, which will delay the action time of the data voltage. The action time of ELVDD and data voltage will be inconsistent, resulting in unstable data voltage and aggravating the crosstalk phenomenon of the display panel. For example, in the cross talk screen, the data voltage will couple ELVDD and raise 30mV (such as Figure 3 If ELVDD compensation is triggered, the data voltage at the charging position will be pulled up (e.g. Figure 3 Source1 in ), which makes the Cross Talk phenomenon worse.

[0048] When the first preset threshold is set and is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage caused by coupling, the change in the data voltage will not trigger the compensation function of the voltage compensation circuit 12. For example, Figure 3 As shown in FIG, if the limit voltage for triggering ELVDD compensation is set to 100 mV (greater than the limit fluctuation amplitude), that is, the first preset threshold is 100, then even if ELVDD is coupled, the fluctuation of ELVDD will not exceed the limit voltage and will not trigger ELVDD compensation. The fluctuation of the data voltage is only due to the coupling effect of ELVDD (such as Figure 3 In Source2), since the fluctuation amplitude is small and the fluctuation position is not at the location where the data voltage is charged, the Cross Talk phenomenon caused by ELVDD compensation is prevented.

[0049] The voltage compensation system described above can measure the anode drive voltage of the pixel unit through the voltage detection circuit 11. Since the voltage detection circuit 11 is connected to the voltage compensation circuit 12, when the anode drive voltage fluctuates so much that it may seriously affect the display image, that is, when the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, the voltage compensation circuit 12 can compensate the data voltage of the pixel unit, thereby reducing the impact of the anode drive voltage fluctuation and improving the uniformity and stability of the display image. In addition, because the first preset threshold is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage when the data voltage is adjusted to the maximum, changes in the grayscale value of the display image will not trigger the voltage compensation circuit 12 to compensate for the data voltage, thereby avoiding the coupling of the data voltage to compensate for the anode drive voltage, thus avoiding frequent changes in the data voltage, and thus avoiding the aggravation of crosstalk caused by compensating for ELVDD.

[0050] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit 12 is also used to record the limit fluctuation amplitude. When the number of the recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, the fluctuation limit is determined based on the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, and the first preset threshold is updated based on the fluctuation limit, n≥1.

[0051] In applications, the ELVDD fluctuation amplitude when the display switches between black and white can be obtained, and a limit fluctuation amplitude can be determined based on multiple acquired ELVDD fluctuation amplitudes. For example, the limit fluctuation amplitude can be obtained by averaging the multiple acquired ELVDD fluctuation amplitudes after noise reduction. Another example is that the maximum remaining fluctuation amplitude after noise reduction can be determined as the limit fluctuation amplitude. It is understood that in order to ensure that the first preset threshold is always greater than the limit fluctuation amplitude, a large margin should exist between the first preset threshold and the limit fluctuation amplitude to accommodate all similar products.

[0052] Among them, the fluctuation limit can be the maximum value of the n said extreme fluctuation amplitudes in the latest record. The upper limit value of the extreme fluctuation amplitude can be determined based on the fluctuation limit, and then a new first preset threshold can be determined based on the fluctuation limit. The first preset threshold is updated according to the actual product usage to reduce the margin between the first preset threshold and the extreme fluctuation amplitude. For example, the first preset threshold can be determined as the fluctuation limit plus 5mv.

[0053] In this embodiment, by recording the extreme fluctuation amplitudes, when the number of the recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, the fluctuation limit can be determined based on the latest recorded n extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and the first preset threshold is updated based on the fluctuation limit, thereby updating the first preset threshold according to the actual usage of the product. The first preset thresholds of different products of the same type may be different, thereby achieving self-adjustment and avoiding the triggering conditions of the voltage compensation circuit 12 being too high, resulting in some scenarios that should be compensated not realizing the compensation function of the voltage compensation circuit 12.

[0054] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation circuit 12 is also used to clear the recorded limit fluctuation amplitude and perform a calibration operation after the first preset threshold is updated according to the fluctuation limit. The calibration operation includes recording the limit fluctuation amplitude, and when the number of recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining the fluctuation limit according to the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, and updating the first preset threshold according to the fluctuation limit.

[0055] It is understood that as the display product ages, the range of the maximum fluctuation amplitude may change, and the original first preset threshold may no longer be appropriate. Therefore, after updating the first preset threshold, the recorded maximum fluctuation amplitude is cleared to eliminate the impact of old data and free up storage space. Calibration can then update the first preset threshold based on newly recorded data, making it more appropriate for current conditions.

[0056] In one embodiment, the present application provides a display panel including the voltage compensation system 1 described above.

[0057] The display panel may further include pixel units and a pixel driving circuit, wherein the pixel driving circuit is used to drive the pixel units to emit light. It is understood that the pixel units and the pixel driving circuit are well known to those skilled in the art and are not the focus of this application, so their specific structures and principles are not described in detail here.

[0058] The advantages of the above display panel over the prior art are the same as the advantages of the above voltage compensation system over the prior art, and will not be repeated here.

[0059] In one embodiment, the present application provides a display device including the display panel described above.

[0060] It is understandable that the display device in the embodiments of the present application can be an OLED display device, a QLED display device, an electronic paper, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a television, a monitor, a laptop computer, a digital photo frame, a navigator, a wearable device, an Internet of Things device, or any other product or component with a display function, and the embodiments disclosed in the present application are not limited to this.

[0061] The advantages of the above-mentioned display device over the prior art are the same as those of the above-mentioned display panel over the prior art, and are not described in detail here.

[0062] Based on the same inventive concept, in one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the present application provides a voltage compensation method, the method comprising:

[0063] S401: Obtaining an anode driving voltage of a pixel unit;

[0064] S402: When the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, compensating the data voltage according to the jump amount, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes.

[0065] The method can be used to determine the compensation amount based on the jump amount, and compensate the data voltage based on the compensation amount. The sum of the compensation amount and the jump amount can be zero. For example, if the jump amount is -A, the compensation amount is +A, where the symbol + represents a voltage rise, and the symbol - represents a voltage drop.

[0066] Optionally, the first preset threshold is greater than a limit fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling, and the limit fluctuation amplitude is a fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage undergoes a maximum change within an adjustable range.

[0067] In applications, the display screen may switch between black and white, that is, the grayscale value of the display screen may switch from 0 to 255, or from 255 to 0. When the display screen needs to switch between black and white, the data voltage will change the most within the adjustable range. At this time, the coupling of the data voltage will cause the anode drive voltage ELVDD to fluctuate greatly. If the first preset threshold is not set, such as Figure 2 As shown, Sck1 and Sck2 are scan signals, and ELVDD fluctuation will cause the voltage compensation circuit to compensate for ELVDD, which will lead to the data voltage (corresponding to Figure 2 The source signal in the display panel also changes, and the compensation of ELVDD will have a certain delay, which will delay the action time of the data voltage. The action time of ELVDD and data voltage will be inconsistent, resulting in unstable data voltage and aggravating the crosstalk phenomenon of the display panel. For example, in the cross talk screen, the data voltage will couple ELVDD and raise 30mV (such as Figure 3 If ELVDD compensation is triggered, the data voltage at the charging position will be pulled up (e.g. Figure 3 Source1 in ), which makes the Cross Talk phenomenon worse.

[0068] When the first preset threshold is set and is greater than the maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling, the change in the data voltage will not trigger the compensation function of the voltage compensation circuit. Figure 3 As shown in FIG, if the limit voltage for triggering ELVDD compensation is set to 100 mV (greater than the limit fluctuation amplitude), that is, the first preset threshold is 100, then even if ELVDD is coupled, the fluctuation of ELVDD will not exceed the limit voltage and will not trigger ELVDD compensation. The fluctuation of the data voltage is only due to the coupling effect of ELVDD (such as Figure 3 In Source2), since the fluctuation amplitude is small and the fluctuation position is not at the location where the data voltage is charged, the Cross Talk phenomenon caused by ELVDD compensation is prevented.

[0069] The above-described voltage compensation method obtains the anode drive voltage so that when the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, the voltage compensation circuit can compensate the data voltage of the pixel unit, thereby reducing the impact of anode drive voltage fluctuations and improving the uniformity and stability of the displayed image. In addition, because the first preset threshold is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes, changes in the grayscale value of the displayed image will not trigger the voltage compensation circuit to compensate for the data voltage, thus avoiding the need to compensate the anode drive voltage due to coupling of the data voltage, thus avoiding frequent changes in the data voltage and thus avoiding the aggravation of crosstalk caused by compensation for ELVDD.

[0070] In one embodiment, the voltage compensation method further includes: recording the limit fluctuation amplitude; when the number of the recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining the fluctuation limit based on the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, n≥1; and updating the first preset threshold based on the fluctuation limit.

[0071] In applications, the ELVDD fluctuation amplitude when the display switches between black and white can be obtained, and a limit fluctuation amplitude can be determined based on multiple acquired ELVDD fluctuation amplitudes. For example, the limit fluctuation amplitude can be obtained by averaging the multiple acquired ELVDD fluctuation amplitudes after noise reduction. Another example is that the maximum remaining fluctuation amplitude after noise reduction can be determined as the limit fluctuation amplitude. It is understood that in order to ensure that the first preset threshold is always greater than the limit fluctuation amplitude, a large margin should exist between the first preset threshold and the limit fluctuation amplitude to accommodate all similar products.

[0072] Among them, the fluctuation limit can be the maximum value of the n said extreme fluctuation amplitudes in the latest record. The upper limit value of the extreme fluctuation amplitude can be determined based on the fluctuation limit, and then a new first preset threshold can be determined based on the fluctuation limit. The first preset threshold is updated according to the actual product usage to reduce the margin between the first preset threshold and the extreme fluctuation amplitude. For example, the first preset threshold can be determined as the fluctuation limit plus 5mv.

[0073] In this embodiment, by recording the extreme fluctuation amplitude, when the number of the recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, the fluctuation limit can be determined based on the latest recorded n extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and the first preset threshold is updated based on the fluctuation limit, thereby updating the first preset threshold according to the actual usage of the product. The first preset thresholds of different products of the same type may be different, thereby achieving self-adjustment and avoiding the triggering conditions of the voltage compensation circuit being too high, resulting in the compensation function of the voltage compensation circuit not being able to be performed in some scenarios that should be compensated.

[0074] In one embodiment, after updating the first preset threshold according to the fluctuation limit, the method further includes: clearing the recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes and performing a calibration operation, wherein the calibration operation includes: recording the extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and when the number of recorded extreme fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining the fluctuation limit according to the latest recorded n extreme fluctuation amplitudes, and updating the first preset threshold according to the fluctuation limit, n≥1.

[0075] It is understood that as the display product ages, the range of the maximum fluctuation amplitude may change, and the original first preset threshold may no longer be appropriate. Therefore, after updating the first preset threshold, the recorded maximum fluctuation amplitude is cleared to eliminate the impact of old data and free up storage space. Calibration can then update the first preset threshold based on newly recorded data, making it more appropriate for current conditions.

[0076] In one embodiment, based on the above embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, a voltage compensation method is provided, the voltage compensation method comprising:

[0077] S501: Obtaining an anode driving voltage of a pixel unit;

[0078] S502: When the absolute value of the jump amount of the anode driving voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, compensating the data voltage according to the jump amount, wherein the first preset threshold is greater than a maximum fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage caused by coupling, and the maximum fluctuation amplitude is the fluctuation amplitude of the anode driving voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage undergoes a maximum change within an adjustable range;

[0079] S503: Executing a calibration operation, wherein the calibration operation includes: recording the limit fluctuation amplitudes, and when the number of the recorded limit fluctuation amplitudes reaches a second preset threshold, determining a fluctuation limit value based on the latest recorded n limit fluctuation amplitudes, and updating the first preset threshold value based on the fluctuation limit value;

[0080] S504: Clear the recorded limit fluctuation amplitude and return to perform the calibration operation.

[0081] The voltage compensation method described in this embodiment obtains the anode drive voltage so that when the jump amount of the anode drive voltage is greater than a first preset threshold, the data voltage of the pixel unit can be compensated by the voltage compensation circuit, reducing the impact of the anode drive voltage fluctuation and improving the uniformity and stability of the display. In addition, because the first preset threshold is greater than the fluctuation amplitude of the anode drive voltage caused by coupling when the data voltage changes, changes in the grayscale value of the displayed image will not trigger the voltage compensation circuit to compensate for the data voltage, avoiding the need to compensate the anode drive voltage due to coupling of the data voltage, thus avoiding frequent changes in the data voltage and thus avoiding the aggravation of crosstalk caused by compensation for ELVDD. At the same time, by continuously performing calibration operations, the first preset threshold can be continuously updated based on newly recorded data, so that the first preset threshold conforms to the current situation.
