[0002] GOA (Gate Driven on Array) technology is often used in the field of display screen gate drive technology. However, a GOA drive circuit generally supports either forward scanning or reverse scanning. That is, in actual display processes, existing displays often only support one of the two.

[0003] However, a single forward or reverse scan drive scanning method lacks flexibility. For example, sometimes, based on display quality requirements, it is necessary to switch to reverse scanning during the forward scan process. Existing display screens usually wait until the current number of scan lines is completed, that is, a full scan cycle is completed before starting the reverse scan in the next frame. This method is time-consuming, especially in high refresh rate application scenarios. It is also inflexible when a second image repair is required, thus reducing display quality.

[0075] Circuit Example

[0076] Existing display screens cannot switch flexibly when performing secondary repairs on the screen, which takes a long time and reduces the display quality.

[0077] In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes a GOA cascade circuit with fast switching between forward and reverse scanning.

[0078] A GOA cascade circuit with fast switching of forward and reverse scanning, such as Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the connection of the GOA cascade circuit module; it includes a control module 100, a detection module 200 and a GOA driver module 300; the control module 100 is electrically connected to one end of the detection module 200 and one end of the GOA driver module 300 respectively; the other end of the detection module 200 is electrically connected to the row pixel TFT; the other end of the GOA driver module 300 is electrically connected to the row pixel TFT; the detection module 200 is used to detect the charge amount of the row pixel TFT of the current display partition; the GOA driver module 300 is cascaded row by row to perform partition scanning on the display screen respectively; the control module 100 is used to control the GOA driver module 300 to perform partition scanning on the display screen; partition scanning is: the GOA driver module 300 outputs different refresh frequencies to multiple partitions of the display screen respectively to optimize the display quality of the display screen.

[0079] The GOA driver modules 300 (SN1 to SN6) are cascaded row by row, such as Figure 2 , Figure 2 : is a schematic diagram of the cascade connection of the GOA driving modules 300. The number of GOA driving modules 300 corresponds to the number of rows, so there can be n of them, forming a GOA cascade circuit of the display screen to scan the display screen row by row.

[0080] The detection module 200 is used to obtain the row pixel TFT charge information of the current partition and transmit it to the control module 100 for algorithm comparison. For display partitions with a charge less than a specified value, secondary charging is required for backscanning to improve the display quality of the partition, achieve different refresh frequencies for different partitions of the display screen, and improve the flexibility of picture repair.

[0081] Example 1

[0082] In this embodiment, the GOA driving module 300 can be implemented as follows: Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the GOA driver module 300 module connection; it includes a startup unit 310, an output unit 320, and a pull-down unit 330; the startup unit 310 is electrically connected to the output unit 320 and the pull-down unit 330, respectively, and is used to drive the main transistor of the output unit 320 to turn on to output a gate drive signal; the pull-down unit 330 is used to keep the input end of the output unit 320 at a low level during the pull-down stage to prevent the main transistor from malfunctioning.

[0083] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the circuit connection of the GOA driving module 300; the starting unit 310 includes: a clock signal terminal CK, a start signal terminal STV, a forward scan signal terminal FW, a reverse scan signal terminal BW, a set signal terminal RST, a first transistor T1, and a second transistor T2.

[0084] The output unit 320 includes a main transistor T11 and a capacitor C.

[0085] The pull-down unit 330 includes: a DC signal terminal VDD, a low level input terminal VGL, a pull-up level input terminal GLV, a third transistor T3, a fourth transistor T4, a fifth transistor T5, a sixth transistor T6, a seventh transistor T7, an eighth transistor T8, a ninth transistor T9, and a tenth transistor T10.

[0086] The clock signal terminal CK is electrically connected to the main transistor T11.

[0087] The start signal terminal STV is electrically connected to the gate of the first transistor T1 .

[0088] The positive scan signal terminal FW is electrically connected to the drain of the first transistor T1.

[0089] The reverse scan signal terminal BW is electrically connected to the source of the second transistor T2.

[0090] The set signal terminal RST is electrically connected to the gate of the second transistor T2.

[0091] The gate of the third transistor T3 , the drain of the third transistor T3 , and the drain of the fourth transistor T4 are electrically connected to the DC signal terminal VDD.

[0092] The drain of the fifth transistor T5 , the drain of the sixth transistor T6 , the drain of the seventh transistor T7 , the drain of the eighth transistor T8 , the drain of the ninth transistor T9 , and the drain of the tenth transistor T10 are connected in common and electrically connected to the low level input terminal VGL.

[0093] The gate of the ninth transistor T9 and the gate of the tenth transistor T10 are commonly connected to the pull-up level input terminal GLV.

[0094] The source of the first transistor T1, the drain of the second transistor T2, the gate of the fifth transistor T5, the gate of the sixth transistor T6, the source of the seventh transistor T7, the source of the ninth transistor T9, the gate of the main transistor T11, and the first end of the capacitor C are connected to point P.

[0095] The source of the third transistor T3 , the gate of the fourth transistor T4 , and the source of the fifth transistor T5 are connected in common.

[0096] The source of the fourth transistor T4 , the source of the sixth transistor T6 , the gate of the seventh transistor T7 , and the gate of the eighth transistor T8 are connected to point A in common.

[0097] The source of the main transistor T11 , the second end of the capacitor C, the source of the eighth transistor T8 , and the source of the tenth transistor T10 are commonly connected to the output terminal Gout.

[0098] In the forward scan stage, the forward scan signal terminal FW is at a high level, the reverse scan BW is at a low level, and the high-level pulse signal of the start signal terminal STV turns on the first transistor T1, and the P point becomes a high level. The clock signal terminal CK signal changes from a low level to a high level, causing the P point to be boosted twice, and the main transistor T11 is fully turned on, so that the output terminal Gout outputs a high-level pulse with the same phase as CK, completing the gate drive output of the current row.

[0099] The pull-up level input terminal GLV is pulled high only in the front and back porch stages, turning on the ninth transistor T9, pulling down point P, and turning on the tenth transistor T10, pulling down the output terminal Gout, performing a discharge action, and the output terminal Gout is at a low level in the display stage.

[0100] In the pull-down stage, the DC signal terminal VDD is normally at a high level, the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4 are turned on, and the common node A is at a high level, thereby turning on the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8. The low-level input terminal VGL passes through the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 to pull down the common point P and the output terminal Gout.

[0101] At the same time, the output terminal Gout of the next stage Gn+1 is connected to the gate of the second transistor T2, so that the second transistor T2 is turned on. At this time, the low-level signal of the reverse scan signal terminal BW pulls down the common contact point P again to prevent the current stage Gout from malfunctioning.

[0102] During the forward scanning process, the detection module 200 obtains the charging status of the current scanning area. If the charging levels of the row pixel TFTs in all display areas are normal, the process continues until the scanning of the current frame image is completed.

[0103] Example 2

[0104] In this embodiment, different from the first embodiment, the detection module 200 obtains the GOA driving module 300 information of the last row Gn and the first row G1 of the current partition after the charge amount of the row pixel TFT of the current partition is less than the specified value.

[0105] Since the charge amount of the row pixel TFT of the current display partition is less than the specified value, the current display partition needs to be scanned and charged for the second time, which is the Backward stage.

[0106] Control the GOA driver module 300 to perform partition scanning on the display screen. In the Backward phase, the principle is as follows:

[0107] After the forward scan of the current partition is completed, the level signal of the forward scan signal terminal of the GOA driving module 300 of the last row of the current partition is controlled to be converted from a high level to a low level;

[0108] Control the level signal of the reverse scan signal terminal of the GOA driving module 300 of the last row of the current partition, converting it from low level to high level;

[0109] For the Gth n OK, G n-1 Rows G1, …, G1 are scanned in reverse order.

[0110] After the current display partition is scanned, the forward scan is performed. The principle is as follows:

[0111] After the reverse scan of the current partition is completed, the level signal of the forward scan signal terminal of the first row GOA driving module 300 of the current partition is controlled to be converted from low level to high level;

[0112] Sequentially process the G1th row, G2th row, ..., Gth row of the current partition. n Scan forward.

[0113] After the current display partition is scanned twice, it is equivalent to doubling the refresh frequency of the current display partition, which is beneficial to improving the display quality.

[0114] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the driving timing of each signal end of the GOA driving module 300 for forward and reverse scanning. Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the forward and reverse scan output drive timing of the GOA driver module 300; when G8 outputs a high level, the forward scan signal terminal FW changes from a high level to a low level, and the reverse scan signal terminal BW changes from a low level to a high level, that is, at this time, the forward scan changes to the reverse scan, and the high level output by G8 turns on the second transistor T2 of the GOA driver module 300 in the seventh row, and the high level of the reverse scan signal terminal BW causes the P point of the GOA driver module 300 in the current seventh row to become a high level. The same circuit working principle, G7 outputs a high level, and it can be concluded from the cascade relationship that after G7, G6 outputs a high level, until G1 outputs a high level pulse, the forward scan signal terminal FW changes from a low level to a high level, the reverse scan signal terminal BW changes from a high level to a low level, and the forward scan drive starts again, that is, G1, G2, ..., Gn scans are performed in sequence.

[0115] If the TFT of the row pixels in the display partition is insufficiently charged, it can be reversed for secondary charging, which optimizes the display effect. In addition, it can also achieve the effect of different refresh rates in different areas of the same screen. Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the display partitions. If the current display partition A2 is scanned forward and then reversely scanned, the refresh rate of the A2 area can be twice that of the display partitions A1 and A3.

[0116] Example 3

[0117] Different from the embodiment 2, the reverse scanning of the current partition can also be specifically implemented as follows: when scanning in the reverse direction, the Gth partition is n The high level signal output by the row is used as the G n-1 The start signal of the row main transistor.

[0118] During the second forward scan, the G n-1 The high level signal output by the row is used as the G n The start signal of the row main transistor.

[0119] Method Example

[0120] A method for fast switching between forward and reverse scanning, such as Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a first schematic diagram of a method for fast switching between forward and reverse scanning; the cascade circuit of the first aspect is used, including the steps of:

[0121] The GOA driving module 300 scans the display screen in different zones respectively;

[0122] Different refresh rates are output to multiple partitions of the display screen to optimize the display quality of the display screen.

[0123] In this embodiment, the control GOA driving module 300 performs partition scanning on the display screen, such as Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a second schematic diagram of a method for fast switching between forward and reverse scanning, specifically including:

[0124] After the forward scan of the current partition is completed, the level signal of the forward scan signal terminal of the GOA driving module 300 of the last row of the current partition is controlled to be converted from a high level to a low level;

[0125] Control the level signal of the reverse scan signal terminal of the GOA driving module 300 of the last row of the current partition, converting it from low level to high level;

[0126] For the Gth n OK, G n-1 Rows G1, …, G1 are scanned in reverse order.

[0127] The present invention implements a GOA cascade circuit and method for fast switching between forward and reverse scanning, detects scanned row pixels, obtains their charging status, and performs secondary charging on insufficiently charged display partitions and reverse scanning row by row, thereby achieving different refresh frequencies in different areas of the same display screen, increasing the flexibility of image restoration, and improving display quality.
