[0090] 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. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0091] The transistors used in all embodiments of the present invention may be thin film transistors, field effect transistors, or other devices with the same characteristics. In the embodiments of the present invention, 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.

[0092] In actual operation, when the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field effect transistor, the first electrode may be a drain, and the second electrode may be a source; or, the first electrode may be a source, and the second electrode may be a drain.

[0093] The driving module described in the embodiment of the present invention includes a driving circuit and an output control circuit;

[0094] The driving circuit is electrically connected to the first node, the second node and the carry output terminal respectively, and is used to control the carry output terminal to output a carry signal under the control of the potential of the first node and the potential of the second node;

[0095] The output control circuit is electrically connected to the carry output terminal, the second node, the output control terminal and the drive signal output terminal, respectively, and is used to control the drive signal output terminal to output a drive signal according to the carry signal provided by the carry output terminal under the control of the potential of the second node and the output control signal provided by the output control terminal.

[0096] The driving module described in the embodiment of the present invention adopts an output control circuit. The output control circuit controls the driving signal output terminal to output the driving signal according to the carry signal under the control of the potential of the second node and the output control signal. By controlling the driving signal, whether the data voltage is written into the pixel circuit is controlled. Under the premise of not affecting the shift register function of the driving circuit, different areas in the display area can have different refresh frequencies, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display panel.

[0097] In some application scenarios, the display area needs to display both high-refresh dynamic images and low-refresh static images. Based on this, the embodiment of the present invention adopts an output control circuit to achieve the effect of different refresh frequencies in different areas of the display area.

[0098] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the driving circuit may be a 10T3C driving circuit, a 12T3C driving circuit, a 13T3C driving circuit, or a 16T3C driving circuit, but is not limited thereto.

[0099] like Figure 1 As shown, the display panel may include a plurality of rows and columns of pixel circuits arranged in the display area A0 and the following three units:

[0100] The data processing unit 11 is used to determine whether the image to be displayed is a dynamic image or a static image based on the data voltage, and to determine the dividing point between the static image and the dynamic image, and to transmit the dividing point to the scanning control unit 12;

[0101] The scanning control unit 12 is used to control the writing of data voltage and reset signal into the pixel circuit in the display area A0, and control the pixel circuit to complete reset, data writing, and reset. The scanning control unit 12 is used to generate a first drive signal NS, a second drive signal PS, a first reset control signal PSR1, and a second reset control signal PSR2. The first drive signal NS controls whether the data voltage regulates and compensates the luminous brightness in the pixel circuit, the second drive signal PS controls whether the data voltage is written into the pixel circuit, the first reset control signal PSR1 controls the resetting of the drain of the drive transistor by the first initial voltage, and the second reset control signal PSR2 controls the resetting of the first electrode of the light-emitting element by the second initial voltage.

[0102] The light emitting control unit 13 is configured to generate a light emitting control signal EM, and to control the light emitting of the pixel circuit via the light emitting control signal EM.

[0103] exist Figure 1 In the figure, only one pixel circuit P0 disposed in the display area A0 is schematically shown. In actual operation, multiple rows and columns of pixel circuits are disposed in the display area A0.

[0104] In at least one embodiment of the present invention, the driving signal provided by the driving module may be the first driving signal, but is not limited thereto.

[0105] Figure 2 is a circuit diagram of at least one embodiment of a pixel circuit in a display device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0106] like Figure 2 As shown, at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit may include a first display control transistor M1, a second display control transistor M2, a driving transistor M3, a fourth display control transistor M4, a fifth display control transistor M5, a sixth display control transistor M6, a seventh display control transistor M7, an organic light emitting diode O1 and a storage capacitor Cst;

[0107] The gate of M1 is connected to the first reset control signal PSR1;

[0108] The gate of M2 is connected to the first driving signal NS;

[0109] The gate of M4 is connected to the second driving signal PS;

[0110] The gate of M5 is connected to the light emitting control signal EM;

[0111] The gate of M6 is connected to the light emitting control signal EM;

[0112] The gate of M7 is connected to the second reset control signal PSR2;

[0113] exist Figure 2 In the figure, the terminal labeled VDD is the power supply voltage terminal, the terminal labeled VSS is the low level terminal, the terminal labeled DT is the data line, the terminal labeled I1 is the first initial voltage terminal, and the terminal labeled I2 is the second initial voltage terminal. The first initial voltage terminal I1 is used to provide the first initial voltage Vinit1, and the second initial voltage terminal I2 is used to provide the second initial voltage Vinit2.

[0114] exist Figure 2 In at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown, M2 is an n-type transistor and the other transistors are p-type transistors;

[0115] M2 is an oxide transistor, and transistors other than M2 may be LTPS (low temperature polysilicon) transistors.

[0116] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 When at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown operates in a high-frequency driving mode, a refresh frame may include a first reset phase S1, a data writing phase S2, a second reset phase S3, and a light emitting phase S4, which are arranged in sequence;

[0117] In the first reset phase S1, PSR1 is a low voltage signal, M2 is turned on, the potential of NS jumps high, M2 is turned on, and the first initial voltage Vinit1 is written to the gate of M3, refreshing the signal of the previous frame to Vinit1, and preparing to write the data voltage of the new frame;

[0118] In the data writing phase S2, PSR1 is a high voltage signal;

[0119] At the beginning of the data writing phase S2, M3 is in the open state, NS is a high voltage signal, M2 is continuously open, PS is a low voltage signal, and the data voltage Vdata provided by DT charges Cst through M4, M3 and M2 to complete the charging compensation process;

[0120] In the second reset phase S3, NS is a low voltage signal, PSR2 is a low voltage signal, M7 is turned on, and the second initial voltage Vinit2 provided by I2 is written to the anode of O1, ensuring that in the light-emitting phase S4, the anode of O1 can be smoothly applied with the required voltage to complete light emission;

[0121] In the light-emitting stage S4, EM is a low voltage signal, M5 and M6 are turned on, and M3 drives O1 to emit light;

[0122] The above process is repeated continuously to complete the normal mode display refresh and light-emitting process.

[0123] Figure 2 At least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown is implemented as follows when performing mixed refresh rate driving:

[0124] like Figure 4 As shown, according to actual needs, when the data processing unit determines that the current row image is a static image through the data voltage, the required refresh frequency is low at this time. In the second frame of the row, the potential of NS can be controlled to be long low. In the second frame of the row, M2 is not turned on, the potential of the gate of M3 is not refreshed, and the reset, data writing and charging compensation of the gate potential of M3 cannot be performed. The gate potential of M3 still maintains the voltage of the first frame. At this time, the data voltage of the row is no longer input, and low-frequency refresh is achieved;

[0125] When the data processing unit determines that the current row image is a dynamic image through the data voltage, it controls the normal output NS.

[0126] exist Figure 4 Among them, the time labeled F1 is the first frame display time, the time labeled F2 is the second frame display time, the time labeled F3 is the third frame display time, and the time labeled F4 is the fourth frame display time;

[0132] The driving module described in at least one embodiment of the present invention adopts an output control circuit 52. Under the control of the potential of the second node N2 and the output control signal, the output control circuit 52 controls the driving signal output terminal OT to output the driving signal according to the carry signal. By controlling the driving signal, it is controlled whether the data voltage is written into the pixel circuit. Under the premise of not affecting the shift register function of the driving circuit, different areas in the display area can have different refresh frequencies, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display panel.

[0133] At least one embodiment of the present invention controls the output drive signal through the output control circuit 52 , and can control the potential of the drive signal to be high or low according to actual needs.

[0272] The present invention Figure 13 At least one embodiment of the driving module shown is in operation.

[0273] When the potential of N2 is low, Tf is turned on, CR outputs a low voltage signal to the input terminal of the adjacent next-stage driving module. At the same time, T1 is turned on, OT outputs a low voltage signal to the pixel circuit provided in the display area to maintain the second display control transistor in the pixel circuit in the off state. The potential of NC2 is low, T9 is turned on, N1 is connected to VGH, the potential of N1 is high, and To is turned off.

[0274] When the potential of N2 jumps to a high level, T9 is closed. Only when the second clock signal provided by CB is a low voltage signal, the low voltage signal can be written to the first node N1, and C3 stores the low voltage signal. At this time, To remains in the on state before T9 is turned on, and the high voltage signal provided by VH is transmitted to CR. At this time, whether the high voltage signal is output to the display area as a row scan signal is controlled by T2. When the potential of Vms is a low level, OT can output a high voltage signal normally, and the second display control transistor in the pixel circuit in the display area can be turned on to refresh the data voltage; when the potential of Vms is a high voltage, T2 is turned off, and OT maintains the output of a low voltage signal. The second display control transistor in the pixel circuit in the display area cannot be turned on, the data voltage cannot be refreshed, and the pixel circuit will maintain the luminous state of the previous frame.

[0307] exist Figure 16 In at least one embodiment of the driving module shown, all transistors are p-type transistors, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0308] The present invention Figure 16 At least one embodiment of the driving module shown is in operation.

[0309] When the potential of the second clock signal provided by CB jumps to a low voltage, the potential of N1 is low. At this time, VGH outputs a high voltage signal to CR, and CR transmits the high voltage signal to the input end of the adjacent next-stage driver. At the same time, T1 is turned on and the potential of N4 is pulled low. When the potential of Vms is high, OT can output a high voltage signal.

[0310] When the potential of the input signal connected to I0 jumps to a low voltage and the potential of the first clock signal provided by CK is a low voltage, a low voltage signal is written into N2. When the potential of the second clock signal provided by CB jumps from a high voltage to a low voltage, the potential of N2 is pulled down to a lower potential by the bootstrap effect (the lower potential may be, for example, -14V, but is not limited thereto). At this time, Tf is fully turned on, VGL outputs a low voltage signal to CR, T4 is turned on, OT outputs a low voltage signal to the gate of the second display control transistor in the pixel circuit in the display area, T2 is turned on, and VGH provides a high voltage signal to NC, stabilizing the potential of NC at a high level, thereby avoiding unnecessary turning on of T3 due to the bootstrap effect of the first clock signal provided by CK.

[0311] The above process ensures that the driver module can drive the display normally and the basic shift register functions are not disturbed.

[0312] When the present invention Figure 16 When at least one embodiment of the driving module shown needs to be refreshed at a low frequency,

[0313] When the potential of NC is low, or is pulled to a lower level by the first clock signal provided by CK, the potential of Vms remains low. At this time, even if CR outputs a high voltage signal, OT will still output a low voltage signal.

[0314] When CR outputs a low voltage signal, OT still outputs a low voltage signal, and the potential of NC is still stabilized to a high voltage by the high voltage signal provided by VGH, ensuring that when the potential of the first clock signal provided by CK jumps, T3 remains in the off state;

[0315] The shielding and opening of the row scanning signal (the row scanning signal is the driving signal output by OT) can be achieved through the change of Vms.
