[0034] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to realize the different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application. In addition, the present application can repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples, and this repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, which itself does not indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0035] In order to illustrate the principle of the technical problem existing in the embodiments of the present application, some comparative display devices are provided for illustration. Specifically, the pixel architecture of the display device includes a strip pixel architecture and a flip (inverted) pixel architecture. For a display panel adopting a 1G1D (the same column of sub-pixel units are connected to the same data line, and the same row of sub-pixel units are connected to the same scan line) strip pixel architecture, when performing detection, a DC signal of the 255th grayscale can be input to the data lines connected to the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel in turn, and a DC signal of the 0th grayscale can be input to the data lines connected to the corresponding other two sub-pixels, thereby realizing the detection of a pure color picture. For display panels using a non-strip pixel architecture, such as a display panel using a 1G1D flip pixel architecture or a DLS (dataline share) pixel architecture, since each column of sub-pixels is driven by two adjacent data lines, or two columns of pixels are driven by one data line, when detecting a pure color image, taking a display panel using a 1G1D flip pixel architecture as an example, the first row of red sub-pixels is driven by the first data line, and the second row of red sub-pixels is driven by the second data line. Therefore, multiple data lines in each row need to be alternately switched.
[0036] For the display panel using a symmetrical pull-down gate drive circuit architecture, there are two cases for the above problem. One is a gate drive circuit using a bilateral drive architecture. The gate drive circuit can be divided into several symmetrical drive groups. Pure color picture detection can also be achieved with data signals. Taking the display panel using a 1G1D flip pixel architecture as an example, for example, the gate drive circuit is divided into four groups, and four start signal lines are used to drive them respectively. The odd rows are controlled by two of the start signal lines, and the even rows are controlled by the other two start signal lines. A frame signal is divided into two writes. During the first write, two of the start signal lines input valid levels, and the other two start signal lines input invalid levels to control the sub-pixels of the odd rows to turn on. During the second write, two of the start signal lines input valid levels, and the other two start signal lines input invalid levels to control the sub-pixels of the even rows to turn on. Pure color picture display can be achieved with the sub-pixels of the corresponding luminous color input valid levels. The other is a gate drive circuit that adopts a cross-drive architecture. In this architecture, the scan lines of odd rows are driven by the gate drive circuit on the left, and the scan lines of even rows are driven by the gate drive circuit on the right. Therefore, a frame signal can also be divided into two writes and combined with the input of data signals to achieve the detection of pure color images.
[0037] However, the load of the display panel using the symmetrical pull-down gate drive circuit architecture needs to be less than 50%. With the development of high refresh rate and high resolution products, the load requirements are higher, and it is necessary to introduce an asymmetrical pull-down gate drive architecture. The asymmetrical pull-down gate drive architecture refers to the output signal of the gate drive circuit of the odd rows as the input signal of the gate drive circuit of the even rows. Since the decibel output of the gate drive circuit of the odd rows and the even rows cannot be controlled separately, it is impossible to detect pure color images by controlling the writing order of the gate drive circuit and the data line. Therefore, the detection process of the existing display device has the technical problem that it is impossible to detect pure color images for display panels using an asymmetrical pull-down gate drive circuit architecture and a non-strip pixel architecture.
[0038] In view of the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a display panel and a display device to solve the above technical problems.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, the display panel 1 includes a display area AA and a non-display area NA arranged on at least one side of the display area AA, the non-display area NA includes a gate driving circuit 12, the display area 11 includes a plurality of scan lines 111, a plurality of data lines 112 and a plurality of pixel units 113, each group of the scan lines 111 includes at least one scan line 111, each group of the scan lines 111 outputs the same signal, each of the pixel units 113 includes at least three sub-pixel units with different luminous colors (for example, a first sub-pixel unit 113a, a second sub-pixel unit 113b and a third sub-pixel unit 113c), wherein the gate driving circuit 12 includes:
[0043] A plurality of cascaded gate driving units 12a, each gate driving unit 12a comprising a signal output terminal G(m), wherein one of the signal output terminals G(m) is connected to a group of the scanning lines 111;
[0044] Multiple control units 12b are connected to the gate driving units 12a accordingly, and the control unit 12b includes a control transistor T0, a first control signal line SW1, a second control signal line SW2 and a detection signal line GCH. The first electrode of the control transistor T0 is connected to the detection signal line GCH, the second electrode of the control transistor T0 is connected to the signal output terminal G(m), the gate of the control transistor T0 electrically connected to the scan lines of the odd group (for example, the first group of scan lines G1) is connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 electrically connected to the scan lines of the even group (for example, the second group of scan lines G2) is connected to the second control signal line SW2.
[0045] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which sets a control transistor, a first control signal line, a second control signal line and a detection signal line in a gate driving circuit, so that the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning lines of the odd group is connected to the first control signal line, and the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning lines of the even group is connected to the second control signal line. By controlling the timing of each signal line, the sub-pixel units of the odd rows and the even rows can be turned on in time, or the sub-pixel units of the odd rows and the even rows can be turned on at the same time, and the detection of a pure color picture can be achieved by controlling the timing of each signal line.
[0046] In some embodiments, when the display panel 1 is configured as a detection phase, in a first time period t1, the first control signal line SW1 is configured to output a valid level, and the second control signal line SW2 is configured to output an invalid level; in a second time period t2, the first control signal line SW1 is configured to output an invalid level, and the second control signal line SW2 is configured to output a valid level; the detection phase includes the first time period t1 and the second time period t2.
[0047] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which, by setting a control unit, connects the gate of a control transistor electrically connected to an odd-numbered array of scan lines to a first control signal line, and connects the gate of a control transistor electrically connected to an even-numbered array of scan lines to a second control signal line. When it is necessary to light up a display panel that adopts a non-strip pixel architecture and an asymmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture, the first control signal line and the second control signal line can be used to control the input effective levels of the odd-numbered array and the even-numbered array of scan lines, respectively, and correspondingly control the sub-pixel units of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered rows to light up in sequence or at the same time within a frame, and by controlling the input signal of the data line, the display of a pure color picture can be realized, and the pure color picture of the display panel can be detected.
[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 7 , Fig.12 As shown, one data line 112 is connected to a plurality of sub-pixel units of the same luminous color, such as Figure 8 , Fig.14 As shown, when the display panel 1 is configured in the detection stage, the first control signal line SW1 is configured to output a valid level, and the second control signal line SW2 is configured to output a valid level.
[0049] An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which, by setting a control unit, connects the gate of a control transistor electrically connected to an odd-numbered array of scan lines to a first control signal line, and connects the gate of a control transistor electrically connected to an even-numbered array of scan lines to a second control signal line, and the data lines in the display panel are connected to sub-pixel units of the same luminous color. When the display panel needs to be lit, all scan lines can be controlled to input effective levels through the first control signal line and the second control signal line, and the sub-pixel units of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered rows can be controlled to light up simultaneously within one frame accordingly, and by controlling the input signal of the data line, the display of a pure color picture can be realized, and the pure color picture of the display panel can be detected.
[0050] Specifically, it can be understood that the embodiments of the present application do not limit the pixel architecture in the display panel to a non-strip pixel architecture. For a display panel adopting a strip pixel architecture, the design of the gate drive circuit of the embodiments of the present application can also be adopted; at the same time, the embodiments of the present application do not limit the architecture of the gate drive circuit in the display panel to an asymmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture. The architecture of the gate drive circuit in the display panel can also be a symmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture. Therefore, the design of the display panel in the embodiments of the present application is suitable for different pixel architectures and different gate drive circuits, such as a display panel adopting a strip pixel architecture and a symmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture, or a display panel adopting a strip pixel architecture and an asymmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture, or a display panel adopting a non-strip pixel architecture and a symmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture, or a display panel adopting a non-strip pixel architecture and an asymmetric pull-down gate drive circuit architecture.
[0051] Specifically, it can be understood that the pixel unit 113 includes at least a first sub-pixel unit 113a, a second sub-pixel unit 113b and a third sub-pixel unit 113c. When the display panel is subjected to pure color image detection, at least three detections are required. Therefore, the duration of the detection phase includes at least the duration of three frames. One frame t0 includes a first time period t1 and a second time period t2. One pure color image can be detected within one frame. Therefore, in Figure 5 In other figures, the timing of the corresponding signal lines in each frame is used for explanation. In fact, each frame can be a continuous plurality of frames. For example, the timing of the display panel in the first frame is as follows: Figure 5 As shown in (a) in FIG. 1 , the timing of the display panel in the second frame is as follows: Figure 5 As shown in (b) in FIG. 1 , the timing of the display panel in the third frame is as follows: Figure 5 Similarly, other figures and corresponding timing sequences can refer to the above description.
[0052] Specifically, the effective level refers to a signal that can normally turn on a transistor or light up a pixel unit, and the invalid level refers to a signal that turns off a transistor or turns off a pixel unit. For example, when a high-potential signal is input to the first control signal line, the control transistor can be turned on, and when a low-potential signal is input to the first control signal line, the control transistor is turned off, then the high-potential signal is an effective level, and the low-potential signal is an invalid level; but when a high-potential signal is input to the first control signal line, the control transistor is turned off, and when a low-potential signal is input to the first control signal line, the control transistor is turned on, then the high-potential signal is an invalid level, and the low-potential signal is an effective level; similarly, for the description of the effective level and invalid level of the signal output on other signal lines, please refer to the above description. Specifically, the following embodiments are described by taking the high-potential signal as an effective level and the low-potential signal as an invalid level as an example.
[0053] Specifically, it can be understood that since the gate driving circuit in the embodiment of the present application is suitable for different pixel architectures, when a partial pixel architecture is adopted (for example, a data line in the pixel architecture is connected to multiple sub-pixel units of the same luminous color), whether the scan lines are divided into odd rows and even rows and turned on respectively, or the scan lines of odd rows and even rows are turned on at the same time, the detection of pure color images can be achieved by controlling the write signal of the data line. Therefore, different timings may exist for some pixel architectures, but it can be understood that each pixel architecture in the embodiment of the present application can adopt the same gate driving circuit, for example Figure 4 Specifically, it can be understood that the display panel includes different pixel architectures. In some pixel architectures, a group of scan lines includes one scan line, and each scan line inputs different signals, such as Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Fig.10 In the pixel architecture, each group of scan lines includes only one scan line; in some pixel architectures, a group of scan lines includes two or more scan lines, and each group of scan lines inputs the same signal, for example Fig.12 In the embodiment, the first group of scan lines G1 includes a first scan line G11 and a second scan line G12, the second group of scan lines G2 includes a third scan line G21 and a fourth scan line G22, two scan lines in the same group of scan lines are connected to the same signal output terminal of the gate drive circuit, and the same signal is input to two adjacent scan lines.
[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the display panel 1 includes non-display areas NA arranged on both sides of the display area AA, which are respectively a first non-display area NA1 and a second non-display area NA2, the gate driving circuit 12 includes a first gate driving circuit 121 respectively arranged in the first non-display area NA1 and a second gate driving circuit 122 arranged in the second non-display area NA2, the gate driving units of each level in the first gate driving circuit 121 and the corresponding gate driving units in the second gate driving circuit 122 are connected to the same group of the scanning lines (for example, the first left gate driving unit 121a in the first gate driving circuit 121 and the first right gate driving unit 122a in the second gate driving circuit 122 are connected to the first group of scanning lines G1, and the second left gate driving unit 122 in the first gate driving circuit 121 is connected to the first group of scanning lines G2. 121b is connected to the second right gate drive unit 122b in the second gate drive circuit 122) and the second group of scan lines G2, the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate drive units of the odd rows in the first gate drive circuit 121 is connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate drive units of the even rows in the first gate drive circuit 121 is connected to the second control signal line SW2; the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate drive units of the odd rows in the second gate drive circuit 122 is connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate drive units of the even rows in the second gate drive circuit 122 is connected to the second control signal line SW2.
[0055] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, it can be seen that the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the first left gate driving unit 121a and the first right gate driving unit 122a located in the odd rows are both connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the second left gate driving unit 121b and the second right gate driving unit 122b located in the even rows are both connected to the second control signal line SW2, so that the gate driving unit connected to the scan lines of the odd array and the gate driving unit connected to the scan lines of the even array can output signals to the scan lines of the odd array and the scan lines of the even array in a time-sharing manner under the control of the first control signal line and the second control signal line, thereby realizing the detection of pure color pictures.
[0056] Specifically, when a bilaterally driven gate driving circuit is adopted, two gate driving units connected to the same group of scan lines can be connected to the same control unit, that is, the control unit can be set only on one side to reduce the number of control units, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this, and two control units can be set to connect two gate driving units respectively.
[0057] Specifically, it can be understood that the embodiment of the present application only shows two levels of gate driving units. When the gate driving circuit on each side includes multiple gate driving units, the design and connection relationship of other levels of gate driving units can refer to the above description.
[0058] Specifically, for a display panel using a bilateral gate driving circuit architecture, the gates of the control transistors connected to the corresponding gate driving units in the gate driving circuits on both sides may be connected to the same control signal line, so that the bilateral gate driving circuits input the same signal to the same group of scan lines.
[0059] Specifically, one of the first gate driving circuit and the second gate driving circuit may be arranged on the left side of the display area, and the other may be arranged on the right side of the display area.
[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 6 As shown, the display panel 1 includes non-display areas NA arranged on both sides of the display area AA, which are respectively a first non-display area NA1 and a second non-display area NA2, the gate driving circuit 12 includes a third gate driving circuit 123 respectively arranged in the first non-display area NA1 and a fourth gate driving circuit 124 arranged in the second non-display area NA2, the gate driving units at each stage in the third gate driving circuit 123 are connected to the scan lines of the odd array, the gate driving units at each stage in the fourth gate driving circuit 124 are connected to the scan lines of the even array, the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate driving units at each stage in the third gate driving circuit 123 is connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the gate driving units at each stage in the fourth gate driving circuit is connected to the second control signal line SW2.
[0061] Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, the third gate driving circuit 123 includes a first gate driving unit 123a and a third gate driving unit 123b, and the fourth gate driving circuit 124 includes a second gate driving unit 124a and a fourth gate driving unit 124b, the first gate driving unit 123a is connected to the first group of scan lines G1, the second gate driving unit 124a is connected to the second group of scan lines G2, the third gate driving unit 123b is connected to the third group of scan lines G3, and the fourth gate driving unit 124b is connected to the fourth group of scan lines G4, the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the first gate driving unit 123a and the third gate driving unit 123b is connected to the first control signal line SW1, and the gate of the control transistor T0 connected to the second gate driving unit 124a and the fourth gate driving unit 124b is connected to the second control signal line SW2.
[0062] Specifically, for a display panel adopting a cross-drive gate drive circuit architecture, the number of gate drive units can be reduced. It can be understood that, relative to a display panel with a bilateral gate drive circuit architecture, a display panel adopting a cross-drive gate drive circuit architecture can reduce the number of gate drive units by half, thereby reducing the border.
[0063] Specifically, by connecting the gates of the control transistors connected to the gate drive units at each stage in the third gate drive circuit to the first control signal line, and connecting the gates of the control transistors connected to the gate drive units at each stage in the fourth gate drive circuit to the second control signal line, the gate drive units connected to the scan lines of the odd array and the gate drive units connected to the scan lines of the even array can output signals to the scan lines of the odd array and the scan lines of the even array in a time-sharing manner under the control of the first control signal line and the second control signal line, thereby realizing the detection of pure color images.
[0064] Specifically, it can be understood that the embodiment of the present application only shows two levels of gate driving units. When the gate driving circuit on each side includes multiple gate driving units, the design and connection relationship of other levels of gate driving units can refer to the above description.
[0065] Specifically, one of the third gate driving circuit and the fourth gate driving circuit may be arranged on the left side of the display area, and the other may be arranged on the right side of the display area.
[0066] In some embodiments, the gate driving unit 12a further includes a signal input terminal (eg Figure 4 The signal output terminal G(m-7) of the m-7th level gate driving circuit is the signal input terminal of the gate driving unit at this level), and in the gate driving circuit 12 on either side of the display area AA, the signal output terminal G(m) of the gate driving unit 12a of the odd rows is connected to the signal input terminal of the gate driving unit 12a of the even rows. For a display panel in which the signal output end of the gate driving unit of the odd rows is connected to the signal input end of the gate driving unit of the even rows, that is, a display panel adopting an asymmetric pull-down gate driving circuit architecture, the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning line of the odd rows can be connected to the first control signal line, and the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning line of the even rows can be connected to the second control signal line by making the gate driving circuit include a control unit. Then, when it is necessary to light up the display panel adopting the non-strip pixel architecture and the asymmetric pull-down gate driving circuit architecture, the scanning lines of the odd rows and the even rows can be respectively controlled to input effective levels through the first control signal line and the second control signal line, and the sub-pixel units of the odd rows and the even rows can be controlled accordingly to light up in sequence within one frame, and the input signal of the data line can be controlled to display a pure color picture, and the pure color picture of the display panel can be detected.
[0067] Specifically, for example, if the gate driving unit at this level is an eighth-level gate driving unit, then the gate driving unit at this level is a gate driving unit of an even-numbered row, and the signal input end of the gate driving unit at this level (the gate of the first pull-up maintaining transistor T11 can be regarded as the signal input end of the gate driving unit at this level) is the signal output end G(1) of the first-level gate driving unit, that is, the signal input end of the eighth-level gate driving unit is connected to the signal output end of the first-level gate driving unit, and the first-level gate driving unit is a gate driving unit of an odd-numbered row, then it can be seen that the signal output end of the gate driving unit of the odd-numbered row is connected to the signal input end of the gate driving unit of the even-numbered row.
[0068] Specifically, it can be understood that when the gate driving circuit adopts a bilateral driving architecture, the gate driving units of odd rows refer to gate driving units connected to the scan lines of the odd group, and the gate driving units of even rows refer to gate driving units connected to the scan lines of the even group; when the gate driving circuit adopts cross driving, the gate driving units of odd rows refer to gate driving units located in odd rows in the gate driving circuit, and the gate driving units of even rows refer to gate driving units located in even rows in the gate driving circuit. For example, the third gate driving circuit includes a first gate driving unit and a third gate driving unit, and the fourth gate driving circuit includes a second gate driving unit and a fourth gate driving unit. The first gate driving unit and the second gate driving unit are respectively gate driving units of the first row on the left and the first row on the right. Then the first gate driving unit and the second gate driving unit are gate driving units of odd rows, and the third gate driving unit and the fourth gate driving unit are respectively gate driving units of the second row on the left and the second row on the right. Then the third gate driving unit and the fourth gate driving unit are gate driving units of even rows. Similarly, the types of other gate driving units can be determined.
[0069] In some embodiments, the gate driving unit also includes a signal input terminal. In the gate driving circuit on either side of the display area, the signal output terminal of the gate driving unit of the odd rows is connected to the signal input terminal of the gate driving unit of the odd rows, and the signal output terminal of the gate driving unit of the even rows is connected to the signal input terminal of the gate driving unit of the even rows. For a display panel in which the signal output end of the gate driving unit of the odd rows is connected to the signal input end of the gate driving unit of the odd rows, and the signal output end of the gate driving unit of the even rows is connected to the signal input end of the gate driving unit of the even rows, that is, a display panel adopting a symmetrical pull-down gate driving circuit architecture, the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning lines of the odd array is connected to the first control signal line, and the gate of the control transistor electrically connected to the scanning lines of the even array is connected to the second control signal line. Then, when it is necessary to light up the display panel adopting a non-strip pixel architecture and an asymmetrical pull-down gate driving circuit architecture, the scanning lines of the odd array and the even array can be respectively controlled to input effective levels through the first control signal line and the second control signal line, and the sub-pixel units of the odd rows and the even rows are correspondingly controlled to light up in sequence or at the same time within one frame, and the input signal of the data line can be controlled to display a pure color picture, and the pure color picture of the display panel can be detected.
