[0074] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described 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 should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0075] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0076] As described in the background art, in order to adapt to the low current drive of OLED display devices, the aspect ratio of the transistors included in the driving module, namely the driving transistors, is reduced, resulting in poor display uniformity. The inventors have found that the reason for the above problem is that as the driving transistors are used for a longer time, the threshold voltage of the driving transistors changes. The threshold voltage of the driving transistors needs to be compensated to avoid the display unevenness caused by different driving currents generated by different driving transistors at the same grayscale due to the change in threshold voltage. Figure 1The pixel circuit includes a storage capacitor Cst, a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a fourth transistor T4, a fifth transistor T5, a sixth transistor T6, a seventh transistor T7, and a light-emitting module 5. The second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the data line Vdata. The fifth transistor T5, the first transistor T1, the sixth transistor T6, and the light-emitting module 5 are connected between a first power line Vdd and a second power line Vss. The fourth transistor T4 and the seventh transistor T7 are respectively electrically connected to an initialization signal line Vref. The gates of the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are both connected to the first scan line Scan1. The gates of the fourth transistor T4 and the seventh transistor T7 are electrically connected to the second scan line Scan2. The gates of the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 are electrically connected to the emission control signal line EM. In the data writing phase, the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned on in response to the signal on the first scan line Scan1. The first transistor T1 is also in the on state in the data writing phase. The turned-on second transistor T2 transmits the data voltage to the first electrode of the first transistor T1. The third transistor T3 transmits the voltage of the second electrode of the first transistor T1 to the gate of the first transistor T1, so that the voltage of the gate of the first transistor T1 is raised until it is raised to Vd-|Vth| (taking the first transistor T1 as a P-type transistor as an example). The compensation of the threshold voltage is completed, where Vd is the data voltage provided by the data line Vdata and Vth is the threshold voltage of the first transistor T1. The first transistor T1 generates a driving current based on its gate and the first electrode. μ is the electron mobility, Cox is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area, is the width-to-length ratio of the first transistor T1, V gs is the voltage difference between the gate and the first electrode of the first transistor T1, and V1 is the first power supply voltage provided by the first power line. As can be seen from the above formula, when the compensation is sufficient, the magnitude of the driving current is independent of the threshold voltage, thereby ensuring the consistency of the driving current. In order to reduce the magnitude of the driving current, the aspect ratio of the first transistor T1 can be reduced. However, when the aspect ratio of the first transistor T1 is reduced, the driving current decreases. Therefore, the charge flowing from the first electrode of the first transistor T1 to its second electrode per unit time decreases, and the compensation capability of the pixel circuit is reduced. As a result, during the data writing phase, the voltage of the gate of the first transistor T1 is insufficient to be raised to Vd-|Vth|. As a result, when the input data voltage is the same, different first transistors generate different driving currents and different luminous brightness, resulting in poor display uniformity.

[0077] In view of the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present invention provides a new pixel circuit. Figure 2, the pixel circuit includes: a data writing module 1, a main driving module 2, an auxiliary driving module 3, an access control module 4 and a light emitting module 5;

[0078] The data writing module 1 is electrically connected to the main driving module 2; the access control module 4 is electrically connected to the main driving module 2 and the auxiliary driving module 3, and the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2 is electrically connected to the control terminal G2 of the auxiliary driving module 3;

[0079] The access control module 4 is used to be turned on during the data writing phase, so that the data writing module 1 transmits the data voltage to the control terminal of the main driving module 2 through the multi-path parallel path formed by the main driving module 2 and the auxiliary driving module 3; and turned off during the light-emitting phase, so that the auxiliary driving module 3 is disconnected from the path where the light-emitting module 5 is located;

[0080] The main driving module 2 is used to output a driving current according to the voltage of its own control terminal G in the light-emitting stage to drive the light-emitting module 5 to emit light.

[0081] The light-emitting module 5 can be a light-emitting diode, for example, an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), which emits light under the drive of a driving current. The data writing module 1 is also connected to the data line Vdata, which is used to provide a data voltage. Optionally, the pixel circuit also includes a light-emitting control module 6, and the light-emitting control module 6, the main driving module 2 and the light-emitting module 5 are connected between the first power line Vdd and the second power line Vss. The light-emitting control module 6 is used to control the light-emitting module 5 to emit light according to the drive current output by the main driving module 2 according to the signal on the light-emitting control signal line EM during the light-emitting phase. In this embodiment, the main driving module 2 and the auxiliary driving module 3 both include transistors, and the transistors included are all driving tubes. The access control module 4 and the data writing module 1 both act as switches. The light-emitting control module 6 acts as a switch. The access control module 4 is turned off during the light-emitting stage, and the path where the auxiliary driving module 3 and the light-emitting module 5 are located is disconnected. This can be: disconnecting the connection path between the auxiliary driving module 3 and the light-emitting module 5, and / or disconnecting the connection path between the auxiliary driving module 3 and the first power line Vdd, so that the auxiliary driving module 3 does not work, the auxiliary driving module 3 cannot generate a driving current, or even if a driving current is generated, it cannot be transmitted to the light-emitting module 5.

[0082] By controlling the on / off switching of the access control module 4, the auxiliary driver module 3 is controlled to function. By controlling the on / off switching of the access control module 4 to activate the auxiliary driver module 3, the pixel circuit can form multiple parallel pathways from the data line Vdata to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 during the data write phase, thereby simultaneously writing the data voltage provided by the data line Vdata to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. For example, one pathway can include the data line Vdata, the data write module 1, the access control module 4, and the main driver module 2 (note that in other embodiments, the access control module 4 is not required for this transmission path), and the other pathway can include the data line Vdata, the data write module 1, the auxiliary driver module 3, the access control module 4, and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. Through these two parallel pathways, the data voltage is simultaneously written to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 during the data write phase, ensuring that the voltage at the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 is fully written. During the light-emitting stage, the access control module 4 is controlled to be turned off so that the auxiliary driving module 3 will not work. The auxiliary driving module 3 cannot generate a driving current, or even if it generates a driving current, it cannot be transmitted to the light-emitting module, ensuring that only the driving current generated by the main driving module 2 is transmitted to the light-emitting module 5 to control the light-emitting module 5 to emit light.

[0083] In this embodiment, by controlling the access control module to be turned on, multiple data voltage writing paths are formed. Data voltages are simultaneously written to the control terminal of the main driver module through these multiple paths. This ensures that even after reducing the aspect ratio of the transistors included in the main driver module, which results in a reduction in drive current, sufficient voltage can still be written to the control terminal of the main driver module, thereby improving display uniformity. Furthermore, during the light-emitting phase, the access control module is controlled to be turned off, preventing the auxiliary driver module from generating drive current. Even if drive current is generated, it cannot be transmitted to the light-emitting module. Only the drive current generated by the main driver module is transmitted to the light-emitting module. This reduces the drive current, enables driving low-current devices, and reduces power consumption.

[0084] refer to Figure 3 Optionally, the data writing module includes a writing unit 11 and a compensation unit 12, wherein the writing unit 11 is connected between the data line Vdata and the first end S1 of the main driving module 2, and the compensation unit 12 is connected between the second end D1 of the main driving module 2 and the control end G1 of the main driving module 2.

[0085] The writing unit 11 and the compensation unit 12 function as switches. The control terminals of the writing unit 11 and the compensation unit 12 can be connected to the same scan line or different scan lines. During the data writing phase, the writing unit 11 and the compensation unit 12 can be turned on. During the light-emitting phase, the writing unit 11 and the compensation unit 12 can be turned off.

[0086] Optionally, the access control module includes one or more access control units 41; at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the data line and the first end S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3, or at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the first end S1 of the main driving module 2 and the first end S1 of the auxiliary driving module 2, or at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the writing unit 11 and the first end S1 of the main driving module 2, and the first end S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 is connected to the first end S1 of the main driving module 2 via the access control unit 41 connected to the writing unit 11;

[0087] And / or, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the second end D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 and the control end G1 of the main driving module 2, or, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the second end D1 of the main driving module 2 and the second end D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3; or, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the compensation unit 12 and the second end D1 of the main driving module 2, and the second end D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 is connected to the control end G1 of the main driving module 2 via the compensation unit 12.

[0088] The auxiliary driver module 3 and the main driver module 2 include transistors, each of which functions as a driver transistor. That is, the first terminal of the driver module charges its control terminal via its second terminal, causing the voltage at the control terminal to continuously change. For example, if the transistor included in the main driver module 2 is a P-type transistor, the voltage at the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 charges its control terminal G1 via its second terminal D1, raising the voltage at the control terminal G1 until the voltage difference between the control terminal G1 and the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 equals the threshold voltage of the main driver module 2, at which point the main driver module 2 is turned off. The access control unit 41 functions as a switch, directly connecting its two terminals (i.e., the first terminal and the second terminal of the access control unit 41) when turned on.

[0089] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the data line and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 2. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be turned on to transmit the data voltage to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be turned off to disconnect the path between the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the first power line Vdd, preventing the auxiliary driver module 3 from generating a driving current. In this connection scenario, for example, one data voltage writing path can be through the writing unit 11, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. That is, the data voltage is sequentially transmitted to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 through the writing unit 11, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driver module 3. Through one or more access control units 41 and the auxiliary driver module 3, another data voltage transmission path to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 can be formed.

[0090] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be turned on, so that the data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 via the write unit 11 and the access control unit 41. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be turned off, disconnecting the path between the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the first power line Vdd, preventing the auxiliary driver module 3 from generating a driving current. In this connection scenario, one data voltage writing path can, for example, be through the write unit 11, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. That is, the data voltage is sequentially transmitted to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the write unit 11, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driver module 3. This path can be formed by the write unit 11, one or more access control units 41, and the auxiliary driver module 3 to transmit the data voltage to the control terminal of the main driver module 2.

[0091] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the write unit 11 and the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2. The first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 is connected to the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 via the access control unit 41 connected to the write unit 11. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be on, so that the data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 via the write unit 11. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 can be controlled to be off, disconnecting the path between the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the first power line Vdd, preventing the auxiliary driver module 3 from generating a driving current. In this connection scenario, one data voltage transmission path can exemplarily be: the write unit 11, the access control unit 41, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driver module 3. The data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 via the write unit 11. Another data voltage transmission path to the control terminal of the main driver module 2 can be formed through the write unit 11 and the auxiliary driver module 3.

[0092] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be on. After the data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3, the data voltage at the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 charges its own second terminal, thereby transmitting the data voltage transmitted to the auxiliary driver module 3 to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the access control unit 41. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be off, which can disconnect the path between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the light-emitting module 5, preventing the auxiliary driver module from generating a driving current to transmit to the light-emitting module. In this connection scenario, one data voltage transmission path can be, for example, through the writing unit 11, the main driver module 2, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driver module 3. The data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 via the writing unit 11. Another data voltage transmission path to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 is formed through the writing unit 11, the auxiliary driver module 3, and the access control unit 41.

[0093] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2 and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be on. After the data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3, the voltage at the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 charges its own second terminal. Furthermore, the access control unit 41 connected between the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2 and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 transmits the voltage at the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the compensation unit 12. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be off, which disconnects the path between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the light-emitting module 5, preventing the drive current generated by the auxiliary driver module 3 from being transmitted to the light-emitting module 5. In this connection case, illustratively, a data voltage transmission path may be: the writing unit 11, the main driving module 2 and the compensation unit 12, and another data voltage writing path may be formed by the auxiliary driving module 3. The data voltage is transmitted to the first end S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 through the writing unit 11, and another path for transmitting the data voltage to the control end G1 of the main driving module 2 may be formed through the writing unit 11, the auxiliary driving module 3, the access control unit 41 and the compensation unit 12.

[0094] Optionally, at least one access control unit 41 is connected between the compensation unit 12 and the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2, and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 is connected to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the compensation unit 12. This is equivalent to at least one access control unit 41 being connected between the compensation unit 12 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 being connected to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the access control unit 41 connected to the compensation unit 12. The circuit structure and operating principle are identical, and the only difference is the module name, and both are within the scope of protection of the present invention. During the data writing phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be turned on, and the data voltage transmitted to the first terminal of the main driver module G1 is sequentially written to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the access control unit 41 and the compensation unit 12. At the same time, the data voltage at the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 is charged to its own second terminal, and the data voltage transmitted to the auxiliary driver module 3 is then transmitted to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the access control unit 41 connected to the compensation unit 12. During the light-emitting phase, the access control unit 41 is controlled to be turned off, disconnecting the path between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 2 and the light-emitting module 5, preventing the drive current generated by the auxiliary driver module from being transmitted to the light-emitting module. In this connection scenario, for example, one data voltage transmission path can be formed through the writing unit 11, the main driver module 2, the access control unit 41, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driver module 3. The data voltage is transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 through the writing unit 11. Another data voltage transmission path is formed through the auxiliary driver module 3 and the access control unit 41 to transmit the data voltage to the control terminal of the main driver module 2.

[0095] Figure 3 The figure is only an exemplary connection relationship of the pixel circuit, and Figure 3 The pixel circuit exemplarily includes two access control units 41 , one connected between the first end S1 of the main driving module 2 and the first end S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 , and the other connected between the second end D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 and the second end D1 of the main driving module 2 .

[0096] Continue to refer Figure 3 Optionally, the control end of the access control unit 41, the control end of the write unit 11, and the control end of the compensation unit 12 are all electrically connected to the first scan line Scan1. This reduces wiring complexity compared to when at least two of the control ends of the access control unit 41, the write unit 11, and the compensation unit 12 are connected to different scan lines. The access control unit 41, the write unit 11, and the compensation unit 12 can be turned on and off simultaneously. The access control unit 41, the write unit 11, and the compensation unit 12 can be turned on during the data writing phase and turned off during the light emitting phase.

[0097] Optionally, at least two of the control end of the access control unit 41, the control end of the write unit 11, and the control end of the compensation unit 12 are connected to the same scan line. Optionally, the control end of the access control unit 41, the control end of the write unit 11, and the control end of the compensation unit 12 are connected to three different scan lines.

[0098] Continue to refer Figure 3 Optionally, the pixel circuit further includes a storage module 7 , which is connected to the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2 and is used to store the voltage of the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2 .

[0099] Continue to refer Figure 3 Optionally, the pixel circuit further includes an initialization module 8, which is configured to write an initialization voltage provided by the initialization signal line Vref to the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2 and / or the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5 according to the signal on the second scan line Scan2 during the initialization phase. The second terminal of the light-emitting module 5 is electrically connected to the second power line Vdd.

[0100] The initialization module 8 may initialize only the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, or may initialize only the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5, or may initialize both the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5. In this embodiment, the initialization module 8 initializes both the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5.

[0101] Exemplarily, the light control module includes a first light control unit 61 and a second light control unit 62, the first light control unit 61 is connected between the first power line Vdd and the first end S1 of the main driving module 2, and the second light control unit 62 is connected between the second end D1 of the main driving module 2 and the first end of the light emitting module 5.

[0102] The pixel circuit's operating process also includes an initialization phase before the data writing phase. During the initialization phase, the data writing module 1, access control module (i.e., one or more access control units 41), and light control module (i.e., first light control unit 61 and second light control unit 62) are all turned off, while the initialization module 8 is turned on. The turned-on initialization module 8 transmits an initialization voltage to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5, completing the initialization of the main driver module 2 and the light-emitting module 5. This prevents any residual charge at the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5 from affecting the current frame.

[0103] Optionally, the access control module includes a first access control unit 401 and a second access control unit 402; the first access control unit 401 is connected between the data line Vdata and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3, or the first access control unit 401 is connected between the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3, or the first access control unit 401 is connected between the write unit 11 and the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2, with the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 connected to the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 via the first access control unit 401. The second access control unit 402 is connected between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, or the second access control unit 402 is connected between the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2 and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3; or the second access control unit 402 is connected between the compensation unit 12 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, with the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 connected to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the second access control unit 402.

[0104] refer to Figure 4 Optionally, the access control module includes a first access control unit 401 and a second access control unit 402, the first access control unit 401 is connected between the data line Vdata and the first end S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3, and the second access control unit 402 is connected between the second end D1 of the main driving module 2 and the second end D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3. Figure 5 The timing diagram shown applies to Figure 4 The pixel circuit shown in FIG. 1 includes an initialization phase t1 , a data writing phase t2 and a light emitting phase t3 .

[0105] During initialization phase t1, the signals on the first scan line Scan1 and the light-emission control signal line EM are both off signals, for example, at a high level. The signal on the second scan line Scan2 is on signals, for example, at a low level. The signal on the first scan line Scan1 controls the write unit 11, the first access control unit 401, the second access control unit 402, and the compensation unit 12 to be off. The signal on the light-emission control signal line EM controls the first light-emission control unit 61 and the second light-emission control unit 62 to be off. The signal on the second scan line Scan2 controls the initialization module 8 to be on. The on-state initialization module 8 transmits the initialization voltage provided by the initialization signal line Vref to the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, thereby initializing the first terminal of the light-emitting module 5 and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. Because the control terminal G2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 is electrically connected to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2, the initialization voltage is also written to the control terminal G2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 during initialization phase t1.

[0106] During the data writing phase t2, the signals on the second scan line Scan2 and the light-emission control signal line EM are both off signals, for example, at a high level, while the signal on the first scan line Scan1 is on signals, for example, at a low level. The signal on the light-emission control signal line EM turns off the first and second light-emission control units 61 and 62. The signal on the second scan line Scan2 turns off the initialization module 8. The signal on the first scan line Scan1 turns on the first access control unit 401, the second access control unit 402, the write unit 11, and the compensation unit 12. The enabled write unit 11 transmits the data voltage to the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2. The first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2 charges its second terminal D1 based on the data voltage transmitted by the write unit 11. The compensation unit 12 transmits the voltage at the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2 to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. Simultaneously, the enabled first access control unit 401 transmits the data voltage to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3. The first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 charges its second terminal D2, causing the voltage at its second terminal D2 to continuously change. The turned-on second access control unit 402 transmits the voltage at the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 3 to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2 via the compensation unit 12. During the data writing phase t2, two paths exist for writing the data voltage to the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2: one path involves the writing unit 11, the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2, the second terminal D1 of the main driver module 2, the compensation unit 12, and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2; the other path involves the writing unit 11, the first access control unit 401, the auxiliary driver module 3, the second access control unit 402, the compensation unit 12, and the control terminal G1 of the main driver module 2. Both paths simultaneously write the data voltage and compensate for the threshold voltage during the data writing phase t2, ensuring more complete data voltage writing and threshold compensation.

[0107] During the light-emitting phase t3, the signals on the first scan line Scan1 and the second scan line Scan2 are both off signals, for example, at a high level, while the signal on the light-emitting control signal line EM is on signal, for example, at a low level. The signal on the first scan line Scan1 controls the first access control unit 401, the second access control unit 402, the writing unit 11, and the compensation unit 12 to be off. The signal on the second scan line Scan2 controls the initialization module 8 to be off. The signal on the light-emitting control signal line EM controls the first light-emitting control unit 61 and the second light-emitting control unit 62 to be on. The on-state first light-emitting control unit 61 transmits the first power supply voltage provided by the first power supply line Vdd to the first terminal S1 of the main driver module 2. The main driver module 2 generates a driving current based on the voltages at its first terminal S1 and the control terminal G1, and transmits the driving current to the light-emitting module 5, thereby driving the light-emitting module 5 to emit light. During the light-emitting phase t3, because the first access control unit 401, the second access control unit 402, and the writing unit 11 are turned off, the first power supply voltage on the first power line Vdd cannot be transmitted to the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3. Therefore, the auxiliary driving module 3 cannot generate a driving current to transmit to the light-emitting module 5. In this embodiment, the pixel circuit drives the light-emitting module 5 only through the main driving module 2. The single driving module can reduce the driving current, facilitate the control of low-current devices, and reduce power consumption.

[0108] Figure 6 Corresponding to Figure 4 A specific circuit structure, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 Optionally, the main driving module 2 includes a first transistor T1, the auxiliary driving module 3 includes a second transistor T2, and the threshold voltage of the first transistor is the same as the threshold voltage of the second transistor.

[0109] The writing unit 11 includes a third transistor T3, the compensation unit 12 includes a fourth transistor T4, the first access control unit 401 includes a fifth transistor T5, and the second access control unit 402 includes a sixth transistor T6; the storage module 7 includes a storage capacitor Cst, the first light-emitting control unit 61 includes a seventh transistor T7, the second light-emitting control unit 62 includes an eighth transistor T8, and the initialization module 8 includes a ninth transistor T9 and a tenth transistor T10;

A first electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the first power supply line Vdd, a second electrode of the seventh transistor T7 is electrically connected to the first electrode of the first transistor T1, a first electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is electrically connected to the second electrode of the first transistor T1, a second electrode of the eighth transistor T8 is electrically connected to the first end of the light-emitting module 5, a gate of the seventh transistor T7 and a gate of the eighth transistor T8 are both electrically connected to the light-emitting control signal line EM, a first electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the initialization signal line Vref, a second electrode of the ninth transistor T9 is electrically connected to the first end of the light-emitting module 5, a first electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the initialization signal line Vref, a second electrode of the tenth transistor T10 is electrically connected to the gate of the first transistor T1, and a gate of the ninth transistor T9 and a gate of the tenth transistor T10 are both electrically connected to the second scan line Scan2.

[0111] In this embodiment, all transistors are P-type transistors. When the gate of the P-type transistor is at a high level, it is turned off, and when the gate is at a low level, it is turned on. Figure 5 The drive timing shown also applies to Figure 6 The pixel circuit shown in FIG. Figure 4The working process of the pixel circuit shown is the same or similar and will not be described in detail here. It is worth noting that in the data writing stage, when the gate potential of the first transistor T1 is raised to Vd-|Vth|, the compensation process ends, and the writing of the data voltage and the compensation of the threshold voltage are completed. Wherein, Vd is the data voltage and Vth is the threshold voltage of the first transistor T1. Optionally, all transistors may be N-type transistors. Optionally, some of the transistors are P-type transistors and the other part of the transistors are N-type transistors.

[0113] refer to Figure 7 Optionally, the first access control unit 401 (for example, may include a fifth transistor T5) may also be connected between the first terminal S1 of the main driving module 2 (for example, may include the first transistor T1) and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 (for example, may include the second transistor T2), and the second access control unit 402 (for example, may include the sixth transistor T6) is connected between the second terminal D1 of the main driving module 2 and the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3. Other structures and connection relationships are the same as Figure 6 Same or similar. Figure 7 The pixel circuit shown is Figure 6 The difference is that Figure 7 In the data writing phase of the pixel circuit, the data voltage is directly transmitted to the first terminal of the first access control unit 401 via the writing unit 11 (the third transistor T3). The other working processes are the same as those of the first access control unit 401. Figure 6 The operation process of the pixel circuit in FIG1 is the same or similar and will not be further described here. One data voltage transmission path can be formed through the writing unit 11, the main driving module 2, and the compensation unit 12. Another data voltage writing path can be formed through the auxiliary driving module 3. The writing unit 11, the first access control unit 401, the auxiliary driving module 3, the second access control unit 402, and the compensation unit 12 form another data voltage transmission path to the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2. During the light-emitting phase, the first access control unit 401 and the second access control unit 402 are controlled to be turned off, thereby disconnecting the path between the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 and the first power line Vdd, and disconnecting the path between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 and the light-emitting module 5.

Other structures and connection relationships are the same as Figure 6 The pixel circuits shown are the same or similar. Figure 8 The pixel circuit shown is Figure 6 The difference between the working process of the pixel circuit shown is that, in the data writing phase, the first access control unit 401 and the second access control unit 402 are controlled to be turned on, and the path formed through the auxiliary driving module 3 is: the data line Vdata, the first access control unit 401 (for example, may include a fifth transistor T5), the auxiliary driving module 3 (for example, may include a second transistor T2), the second access control unit 402 (for example, may include a sixth transistor T6), and the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2 (for example, may include the first transistor T1).

The rest of the working process is the same as the above. Figure 6 The operation process of the pixel circuit in FIG. 1 is the same or similar and will not be described in detail here. During the light-emitting phase, the first access control unit 401 and the second access control unit 402 are controlled to be turned off, thereby disconnecting the path between the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driver module 2 and the first power line Vdd, and disconnecting the path between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driver module 2 and the light-emitting module 5.

[0116] refer to Figure 9 Optionally, the first access control unit 401 (for example, may include a fifth transistor T5) may also be connected between the first terminal S1 of the main driving module 2 (for example, may include the first transistor T1) and the first terminal S2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 (for example, may include the second transistor T2), and the second access control unit 402 (for example, may include the sixth transistor T6) is connected between the second terminal D2 of the auxiliary driving module 3 and the control terminal G1 of the main driving module 2. Other structures and connection relationships are the same as those in FIG. Figure 6 The pixel circuits shown are the same or similar. Figure 9 The pixel circuit shown is Figure 6 The difference in the working process of the pixel circuit shown is that, in the data writing phase, the path formed by the auxiliary driving module 3 (for example, which may include the second transistor T2) is: the data line Vdata, the writing unit 11 (for example, which may include the third transistor), the first access control unit 401 (for example, which may include the fifth transistor T5), the auxiliary driving module 3 (for example, which may include the second transistor T2), the second access control unit 402 (for example, which may include the sixth transistor T6), and the control end of the main driving module 2 (for example, which may include the first transistor T1).
