[0116] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0117] The transistors used in all the embodiments of the present application can be thin film transistors or field effect transistors or other devices with the same characteristics. In the embodiments of the present application, in order to distinguish the two poles of the transistor except the gate, one pole is called the first pole and the other pole is called the second pole.
[0118] In actual operation, when the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field effect transistor, the first pole can be a drain and the second pole can be a source, or the first pole can be a source and the second pole can be a drain.
[0119] The driving circuit according to the embodiments of the present application comprises a first switch circuit and a scan signal generation circuit.
[0120] The first switch circuit is electrically connected with a first gate control line, a data output end of a source driver and the scan signal generation circuit, and is used for controlling writing of a data signal provided by the data output end into the scan signal generation circuit under control of a first gate control signal provided by the first gate control line.
[0121] The scan signal generation circuit is used for generating a scan signal according to the data signal and outputting the scan signal through a scan signal output end.
[0122] In this embodiment of the invention, the driving circuit may include a first switching circuit and a scanning signal generation circuit. During at least a portion of the blank time period between two display frames, the first switching circuit, under the control of a first gating control signal, controls the data signal provided by the data output terminal to be written into the scanning signal generation circuit. The scanning signal generation circuit generates a scanning signal based on the data signal and provides the scanning signal to a column of scanning lines included in the display panel. Based on the scanning signal, the transistors controlled by the column of scanning lines are turned on or off during the next frame display time.
[0123] In practical implementation, when the transistor controlled by the scan line of the next frame is turned off during the display time of the next frame, the pixel circuit where the transistor is located does not write data voltage. The original display brightness can be maintained by the low leakage current transistor, avoiding the waste of some power caused by repeated writing of the pixel circuit.
[0124] When the transistor controlled by the scan line of the next frame is turned on during the display time, the pixel circuit where the transistor is located writes data voltage and refreshes the screen normally.
[0125] When updating an OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display, all pixel circuits need to be initialized and data voltages written within one frame of display time. However, in certain special scenes (such as AOD (Always On Display), static scenes, or scenes with infrequent updates), the data voltages of most pixel circuits on the entire screen do not need to be updated. The original display brightness can be maintained by the low-leakage LTPO (Low Temperature Polycrystalline Oxide) TFT (Thin Film Transistor). Repeatedly writing data to these pixel circuits results in wasted power consumption on the data lines.
[0126] Based on this, embodiments of the present invention design a driving circuit that can control the scanning signal on a scanning line during at least a portion of the blank time period between two display frames. According to the scanning signal, the transistor controlled by the scanning line is turned on or off during the next display frame, thereby controlling whether to refresh the data voltage of the corresponding pixel circuit. This achieves the updating of a partial screen image, while the remaining images do not require multiple charging and discharging cycles, thus further reducing the power consumption of the OLED display, or achieving ultra-low power consumption through partial updating of the display image.
