One of the source or drain of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the first node Q1, and the other of the source or drain of the fifth transistor T5 is electrically connected to the third node Q3. The fifth transistor T5 is used to compensate the threshold voltage of the first transistor T1 under the control of the signal at the scan signal input terminal SCAN.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first pixel circuit further includes a sixth transistor T6 and a seventh transistor T7.

[0050] In this embodiment, the sixth transistor T6 is used to form a path between the power supply voltage input terminal VDD and the second node Q2 under the control of the light emission control signal terminal EM; the seventh transistor T7 is used to form a path between the third node Q3 and the anode of the first light-emitting device D1 under the control of the light emission control signal terminal EM.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first pixel circuit further includes a first capacitor C1, one end of which is electrically connected to the power supply voltage input terminal VDD, and the other end of which is electrically connected to the first node Q1; wherein, the first capacitor C1 is configured to increase the voltage of the first node Q1 through coupling to ensure the potential stability of the first node Q1.

[0052] In this embodiment, the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, and the seventh transistor T7 are all P-type transistors.

[0054] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6During the initialization phase t1, the signals at the scan signal input terminal SCAN and the light emission control signal terminal EM are both high-level signals, while the signal at the reset signal control terminal RST is low-level. The third transistor T3 is turned on, thereby initializing the first capacitor C1 and clearing the original data voltage of the first capacitor C1. The first transistor T1 is turned off, and at the same time, the fourth transistor T4 is turned on, so that the initial voltage of the first reset signal input terminal VI_GATE is provided to the anode of the first light-emitting device D1, initializing the anode of the first light-emitting device D1, clearing the pre-stored voltage inside the first light-emitting device D1, and completing the initialization.

[0055] During the data writing phase t2, the signal at the scan signal input terminal SCAN is a low-level signal, while the signals at the light emission control signal terminal EM and the reset signal control terminal RST are both high-level signals. The data signal input terminal DATA outputs a data voltage. At this time, since the signal at the connection point between the first capacitor C1 and the first node Q1 is a low-level signal, the voltage signal at the first node Q1 is also a low-level signal. The first transistor T1 is turned on, and the low-level signal at the scan signal input terminal SCAN causes the second transistor T2 and the fifth transistor T5 to be turned on. The turning on of the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 allows the data voltage at the data signal input terminal DATA to be supplied to the first node Q1 through the second node Q2, the first transistor T1, the third node Q3, and the turned-on fifth transistor T5. The sum of the data voltage V1 output by the data signal input terminal DATA and the threshold voltage Vth of the first transistor T1 is charged into the first capacitor C1. The voltage of the first node Q1 is V1 + Vth, where V1 is the data voltage output by the data signal input terminal DATA, and Vth is the threshold voltage of the first transistor T1. The gate-source voltage difference of the first transistor T1 is Vgs = V1 + Vth - Vdd, where Vdd is the power supply voltage output from the power supply voltage input terminal VDD.

The voltage of the anode of the first light-emitting device D1 remains unchanged, and the first light-emitting device D1 does not emit light.

[0057] During the light-emitting stage t4, the signal at the light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a low-level signal, while the signals at the scan signal input terminal SCAN and the reset signal control terminal RST are both high-level signals. The low-level signal at the light-emitting control signal terminal EM turns on the sixth transistor T6 and the seventh transistor T7. The power supply voltage output from the power supply voltage input terminal VDD provides a driving voltage to the anode of the first light-emitting device D1 through the turned-on sixth transistor T6, first transistor T1, and seventh transistor T7. The first light-emitting device D1 emits light as a driving current flows through it.

One of the sources or drains of the fourteenth transistor T14 is electrically connected to the sixth node Q6, and the other of the sources or drains of the fourteenth transistor T14 is electrically connected to the anode of the second light-emitting device D2. The thirteenth transistor T13 is used to form a path between the power supply voltage input terminal VDD and the fifth node Q5 under the control of the signal from the light emission control signal terminal EM.

[0063] In this embodiment, the voltage of the first reset signal input terminal VI_GATE is greater than the voltage of the second reset signal input terminal VI_ANO. By setting the voltage of the first reset signal input terminal VI_GATE to be greater than the voltage of the second reset signal input terminal VI_ANO, the first light-emitting device D1 in the camera area can light up faster, thereby improving the problem of uneven brightness at low gray levels in the camera area.

[0064] In this embodiment, the eighth transistor T8, the ninth transistor T9, the tenth transistor T10, the eleventh transistor T11, the twelfth transistor T12, the thirteenth transistor T13, and the fourteenth transistor T14 are all P-type transistors.

[0072] In this embodiment, the twelfth transistor T12 is a dual-gate transistor. By setting the twelfth transistor T12 to a dual-gate transistor, leakage current at the fourth node Q4 can be prevented.

[0073] Specifically, the first and second control terminals of the twelfth transistor T12 are both electrically connected to the scan signal input terminal SCAN.

[0074] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 During the initialization phase t1, the signals at the scan signal input terminal SCAN and the light emission control signal terminal EM are both high-level signals, while the signal at the reset signal control terminal RST is low-level. The tenth transistor T10 is turned on, thereby initializing the second capacitor C2 and clearing the original data voltage of the second capacitor C2. The eighth transistor T8 is turned off, and at the same time, the eleventh transistor T11 is turned on, so that the initial voltage of the first reset signal input terminal VI_GATE is provided to the anode of the second light-emitting device D2, initializing the anode of the second light-emitting device D2, clearing the pre-stored voltage inside the second light-emitting device D2, and completing the initialization.

[0075] During the data writing phase t2, the signal at the scan signal input terminal SCAN is low, while the signals at the light emission control signal terminal EM and the reset signal control terminal RST are both high. The data signal input terminal DATA outputs a data voltage. At this time, since the signal at the connection point between the second capacitor C2 and the fourth node Q4 is low, the voltage signal at the fourth node Q4 is also low. The eighth transistor T8 is turned on. The low signal at the scan signal input terminal SCAN turns on the ninth transistor T9 and the twelfth transistor T12. The turn-on of the eighth transistor T8 and the ninth transistor T9 allows the data voltage at the data signal input terminal DATA to be supplied to the fourth node Q4 through the fifth node Q5, the eighth transistor T8, the sixth node Q6, and the turned-on twelfth transistor T12. The sum of the data voltage V1 output by the data signal input terminal DATA and the threshold voltage Vth of the eighth transistor T8 is charged into the second capacitor C2. The voltage at the fourth node Q4 is V1 + Vth, where V1 is the data voltage output by the data signal input terminal DATA and Vth is the threshold voltage of the eighth transistor T8. The gate-source voltage difference of the eighth transistor T8 is Vgs = V1 + Vth - Vdd, where Vdd is the power supply voltage output from the power supply voltage input terminal VDD.

The voltage of the anode of the second light-emitting device D2 remains unchanged, and the second light-emitting device D2 does not emit light.

[0077] During the light-emitting stage t4, the signal at the light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a low-level signal, while the signals at the scan signal input terminal SCAN and the reset signal control terminal RST are both high-level signals. The low-level signal at the light-emitting control signal terminal EM turns on the thirteenth transistor T13 and the fourteenth transistor T14. The power supply voltage output from the power supply voltage input terminal VDD provides a driving voltage to the anode of the second light-emitting device D2 through the turned-on thirteenth transistor T13, eighth transistor T8, and fourteenth transistor T14. The second light-emitting device D2 emits light as a driving current flows through it.

[0078] The specific embodiments of this application have been described in detail above. The embodiments disclosed above are merely preferred embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art can make many modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application. All such modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims of this application.
