Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of displays, and more particularly to a pixel driving circuit, an array substrate, and a display device. Background Technology
[0002] OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) devices are a type of current-driven organic light-emitting device. They emit light through the injection and recombination of charge carriers, and the luminous intensity is directly proportional to the injected current. Under the influence of an electric field, holes generated at the anode and electrons generated at the cathode move and are injected into the hole transport layer and electron transport layer, respectively, migrating to the emissive layer. When these two electrons meet in the emissive layer, they generate excitons, which excite the light-emitting molecules to ultimately produce visible light.
[0003] In practical applications, the capacitor in the pixel driving circuit is connected to the power supply VDD and the reset voltage line Vini, respectively, to reset the capacitor during the initialization phase. However, in related technologies, when flickering issues are addressed using the reset voltage Vini, the potential across the capacitor is limited by the voltage of the power supply VDD, thus affecting the improvement effect.

[0051] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.
[0052] This disclosure provides a display device, which may include, but is not limited to, mobile phones, computers, tablets, e-readers, watches, 3D displays, all-in-one conference machines, electronic whiteboards, and other devices with display functions.
[0053] See Figure 1 The display device 2 includes a plurality of pixels 1, and the plurality of pixels 1 are evenly arranged in a row and column direction. It is understandable that... Figure 1 The diagram only shows 9 pixels in 3 rows and 3 columns, without showing other pixels, in order to keep the diagram simple and clear, but without affecting the understanding of the technical solution of this disclosure.
[0054] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The display device 2 drives the light-emitting element of each pixel 1, i.e. Figure 2 The light-emitting device 20 shown emits light to display an image. The light-emitting device 20 is a current-driven light-emitting diode, such as a miniature LED or an organic light-emitting diode (OLED). Pixel 1 also includes a pixel driving circuit 10 connected to the light-emitting device 20. The pixel driving circuit 10 is configured to provide a current driving signal to the light-emitting device 20 to control the current flowing through the light-emitting device 20 and the operating time of the light-emitting device 20 when displaying each frame of the image, thereby controlling its light emission.
[0055] See Figure 2 The pixel driving circuit 10 includes a reset module 100, a current adjustment module 200, a device driving module 300, a data writing module 400, and a light emission control module 500. The device driving module 300 is electrically connected to the reset module 100, the current adjustment module 200, the data writing module 400, and the light emission control module 500, respectively.
[0056] The reset module 100 is used to write a reset voltage to the current adjustment module 200 during the initialization phase; the reset voltage is provided by the reset voltage line (Vini);
[0057] The data writing module 400 is used to write pixel data to the device driving module 300 during the data writing phase;
[0058] The current adjustment module 200 is used to maintain a control voltage related to pixel data;
[0059] The light-emitting control module 500 is used to turn on the circuit loop to the light-emitting device 20 during the light-emitting stage;
[0060] The device driving module 300 is used to output a current driving signal that matches the control voltage to the light-emitting device 20 during the light-emitting stage, so that the light-emitting device 20 emits light.
[0061] This embodiment provides a reset voltage through a reset voltage line. The reset voltage can be adjusted by adjusting the voltage of the reset voltage line. Compared with related technologies where the power supply provides a limited reset voltage, this can improve the effect of improving the flicker problem.
[0062] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The reset module 100 includes a first reset submodule 101. This first reset submodule 101 is electrically connected to the first scan line Scan1 of the current stage, the previous stage scan line Scan1(n-1), the reset voltage line ini, and the fourth node N4. The fourth node N4 is electrically connected to the light-emitting device 20, the light-emitting control module 500, and the current adjustment module 200.
[0063] The first reset submodule 101 is used to write the reset voltage of the reset voltage line into the fourth node in response to receiving the scan signal of the previous scan line Scan1(n-1) during the initialization phase;
[0064] The first reset submodule 101 is used to write the reset voltage Vini of the reset voltage line ini into the fourth node N4 in response to receiving the scan signal of the first scan line Scan1 during the data writing phase.
[0065] It is understandable that since the fourth node N4 is electrically connected to the current adjustment module 200, writing the reset voltage Vint to the fourth node N4 can be understood as writing to the current adjustment module 200.
[0066] See also Figure 3 The first reset submodule 101 includes a first switching device T1; the first switching device T1 is a dual-gate field-effect transistor. The first control terminal of the first switching device T1 (connected to the top gate (TG) of the first switching device T1) is electrically connected to the first scan line Scan1 of the current stage; the second control terminal of the first switching device T1 (connected to the bottom gate (BG) of the first switching device T1) is electrically connected to the scan line Scan1(n-1) of the previous stage; the first terminal of the first switching device is electrically connected to the reset voltage line ini, and the second terminal of the first switching device is electrically connected to the fourth node N4.
[0067] The first switching device T1 is used to receive the scan signal of the first scan line Scan1 through the first control terminal during the data writing stage and turn on the reset voltage line ini and the fourth node N4 so as to write the reset voltage Vini of the reset voltage line ini into the fourth node N4.
[0068] The first switching device T1 is also used to receive the scan signal of the previous scan line Scan1(n-1) through the second control terminal during the initialization phase and turn on the reset voltage line ini and the fourth node N4 so as to write the reset voltage Vini of the reset voltage line ini into the fourth node N4.
[0069] Thus, in this example, the first reset submodule 101 is implemented using a dual-gate field-effect transistor. The two control terminals of the dual-gate field-effect transistor can be used interchangeably, and control can be achieved using existing scan lines (the first scan line Scan1 and the previous scan line Scan1(n-1)). This allows the first reset submodule 101 to have three control states (i.e., the first control terminal controls conduction, the second control terminal controls conduction, and the second control terminal controls deactivation), which can reduce the complexity of the circuit.
[0070] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The reset module 100 also includes a second reset submodule 102; the second reset submodule 102 is electrically connected to the previous scan line Scan1(n-1), the reset voltage line ini, and the second node N2. The second node N2 is also electrically connected to the data writing module 400, the device driving module 300, and the current adjustment module 200.
[0071] The second reset submodule 102 is used to write the reset voltage Vini of the reset voltage line ini into the second node N2 in response to receiving the scan signal of the previous scan line Scan1(n-1) during the initialization phase. It can be understood that since the second node N2 is electrically connected to the current adjustment module 200, writing the reset voltage Vint into the second node N2 can be understood as writing the reset voltage Vini into the current adjustment module 200.
[0072] See also Figure 3 The second reset submodule 102 includes a second switching device T2. The control terminal of the second switching device T2 is electrically connected to the previous scan line Scan1(n-1); the first terminal of the second switching device T2 is electrically connected to the reset voltage line ini, and the second terminal of the second switching device T2 is electrically connected to the second node N2.
[0073] The second switching device T2 is used to receive the scan signal of the previous scan line Scan1(n-1) through the control terminal during the initialization phase and turn on the reset voltage line ini and the second node N2 to write the reset voltage Vini of the reset voltage line ini into the second node N2.
[0074] In this embodiment, the reset voltage provided by the reset module 100 is provided by the reset voltage line ini. In this way, the voltage across the current adjustment module 200 can be adjusted by adjusting the reset voltage provided by the reset signal line ini, so that the reset voltage of the current adjustment module 200 is no longer limited by the power supply VDD, or in other words, the reset voltage range of the current adjustment module 200 can be increased, ensuring the reset effect and helping to improve the flickering problem.
[0075] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The current adjustment module 200 includes a first capacitor C1. The first terminal of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to a second node N2, and the second terminal of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to a fourth node N4. The second node N2 is also electrically connected to the reset module 100, the data writing module 400, and the device driving module 300, respectively. The fourth node N4 is also electrically connected to the light-emitting device 20 and the light-emitting control module 500, respectively. It is understood that the first capacitor C1 can maintain the voltage at the second node N2, thereby enabling the device driving module 300 to output a stable current driving signal. Thus, a reset voltage Vini can be written across the first capacitor C1 during the initialization phase, stabilizing the reset voltage across the first capacitor C1. Without being limited by the power supply VDD, the adjustment range of the reset voltage in this example is larger, which can better improve the VRR flicker problem.
[0076] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The device driving module 300 includes a third switching device T3. The first terminal of the third switching device T3 is electrically connected to the first node N1, the second terminal of the third switching device T3 is electrically connected to the third node N3, and the control terminal of the third switching device T3 is electrically connected to the second node N2. The first node N1 and the second node N2 are respectively electrically connected to the data writing module 400; the third node N3 is electrically connected to both the data writing module 400 and the light-emitting control module 500. Thus, the third switching device T3 can output a matching current driving signal based on the control voltage at the second node N2.
[0077] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The data writing module 400 includes a fourth switching device T4. The first terminal of the fourth switching device T4 is electrically connected to the data line Data; the second terminal of the fourth switching device T4 is electrically connected to the third node N3; and the control terminal of the fourth switching device T4 is electrically connected to the second scan line Scan2 of the current stage. The fourth switching device T4 is used to receive the scan signal of the second scan line Scan2 through its control terminal during the data writing stage and to turn on the data line Data and the third node N3, so as to write the pixel data of the data line Data to the third node N3. It is understood that the aforementioned pixel data is the data of the corresponding pixel in the current frame image. In this way, the data writing module 400 can write different pixel data to make the light-emitting device display different brightness levels, ultimately displaying the current frame image.
[0078] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The data writing module 400 also includes a fifth switching device T5. The first terminal of the fifth switching device T5 is electrically connected to the first node N1; the second terminal of the fifth switching device T5 is electrically connected to the second node N2; and the control terminal of the fifth switching device T5 is electrically connected to the first scan line Scan1 of the current stage. The fifth switching device T5 is used during the data writing phase to receive the scan signal from the first scan line Scan1 via its control terminal and to turn on the first node N1 and the second node N2, so as to write the pixel data and bias voltage of the third node N3 to the second node N2; the bias voltage refers to the voltage Vth required for the third switching device in the device driving module 300 to turn on. In this way, the fifth switching device T5 can write to the second node N2 after the voltage of the third node N3 has stabilized, thus ensuring that the voltage at the second node N2 includes the bias voltage, achieving the effect of compensating for the pixel data.
[0079] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The light-emitting control module 500 includes a sixth switching device T6. The first terminal of the sixth switching device T6 is electrically connected to the third node N3, the second terminal of the sixth switching device T6 is electrically connected to the fourth node N4, and the control terminal of the sixth switching device T6 is electrically connected to the first light-emitting control line EM1. The sixth switching device T6 is used to receive the light-emitting control signal from the first light-emitting control line EM1 during the light-emitting stage and to turn on the third node N3 and the fourth node N4, so as to transmit the current-driving signal output by the device driving module 300 to the light-emitting device 20. In this example, the first node N1 can be electrically connected to the power supply VDD. Thus, the sixth switching device T6 can control the transmission of the current-driving signal output by the device driving module 300, thereby causing the light-emitting device 20 to emit light.
[0080] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The light-emitting control module 500 also includes a seventh switching device T7; the first terminal of the seventh switching device T7 is electrically connected to the power supply VDD, the second terminal of the seventh switching device T7 is electrically connected to the first node N1, and the control terminal of the seventh switching device T7 is electrically connected to the second light-emitting control line EM2. The seventh switching device T7 is used to receive the light-emitting control signal from the second light-emitting control line EM2 through its control terminal during the light-emitting stage and to turn on the power supply VDD and the first node N1, so as to write the voltage of the power supply VDD into the first node N1. Thus, in this embodiment, the joint control of the current loop by the sixth switching device T6 and the seventh switching device T7 can ensure reliable light emission of the light-emitting device 20 and avoid flickering.
[0081] It should be noted that the first light-emitting control line EM1 and the second light-emitting control line EM2 can be connected to the same signal source. That is, the sixth switching device T6 and the seventh switching device T7 can be controlled by the light-emitting control signal of the second light-emitting control line EM2, thereby reducing the number of control lines.
[0082] Figure 3 In the pixel driving circuit shown, each switching device can be implemented using different types of field-effect transistors. In one example, the first switching device T1 through the seventh switching device T7 are all implemented using NMOS transistors, and Figure 4 Example Figure 3 One operating timing sequence of the circuit shown is provided in the image.
