[0052] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the technical solutions of the present disclosure, but not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments described in this disclosure without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the technical solutions of the present disclosure.

[0053] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and the accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, such that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be practiced using orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0054] In related technologies, the use of spliced ​​screens is becoming increasingly common. With the continuous development of AMOLED flexible display technology, new applications such as flexible special-shaped displays are constantly being explored. Among them, spliced ​​display products in the AMOLED field are developing rapidly. However, due to differences in process technology, the pixel characteristics of each display panel in the spliced ​​screen are different. When the same data voltage is written to each of the above display panels, the spliced ​​area of ​​adjacent display panels will show different brightness.

[0055] For example, see Figure 1 As shown, the spliced ​​screen includes four display panels: display panel 1, display panel 2, display panel 3 and display panel 4. Figure 1 The four display panels arranged in this manner form four seams, namely, seams 1, 2, 3 and 4. The pixel characteristics (for example, threshold voltage Vth) of the pixel units at the above-mentioned seams will be different due to different process steps, resulting in different driving currents of the pixel units at the seams, and thus different display brightness at the seams. That is, there are defective seams that can be detected by the human eye, which affects the screen display effect and product yield.

[0056] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] A display device proposed in an embodiment of the present application includes: at least two display panels spliced ​​together, the display panel includes multiple pixel circuits and a gating control circuit 00, the multiple pixel circuits include a target pixel circuit 10, and the target pixel circuit 10 is connected to the gating control circuit 00.

[0058] The following first introduces the display panel in the embodiment of the present application. The above-mentioned display device includes at least two display panels arranged in a spliced ​​manner, and at least one spliced ​​portion is formed between the at least two display panels. Each display panel includes multiple pixel circuits and a gating control circuit 00, wherein the pixel circuit includes multiple target pixel circuits 10, that is, the display panel includes multiple pixel units, each pixel unit is connected to a pixel circuit or a target pixel circuit 10. Preferably, the pixel units at the spliced ​​portion of the display panel are connected to the target pixel circuit 10, and the pixel units at the non-spliced ​​portion of the display panel are connected to the pixel circuit.

[0059] The above-mentioned pixel circuit and the target pixel circuit 10 have the same circuit composition, and both the pixel circuit and the target pixel circuit 10 are connected to the source driving circuit. The difference is that the target pixel circuit 10 also needs to be connected to the selection control circuit 00, that is, the selection control circuit 00 is used to compensate for the threshold voltage of the pixel unit at the splicing point, thereby improving the display effect of the pixel unit at the splicing point.

[0060] See Figure 2 As shown, the display panel a is connected to the source driver circuit a, and the display panel a includes k pixel circuits, namely pixel circuit 1 to pixel circuit k, and the above k pixel circuits are all connected to the source driver circuit a. At the same time, the display panel a also includes L target pixel circuits, namely target pixel circuit 1 to target pixel circuit L, and the above L target pixel circuits are also connected to the source driver circuit a. In order to perform threshold compensation on the target pixel circuit 10, the display panel a also includes L gating control circuits, namely gating control circuit 1 to gating control circuit L, and the above L gating control circuits are respectively connected to the L target pixel circuits 10 in a one-to-one correspondence. In the embodiment of the present application, the gating control circuit 00 is triggered by the signal of the gating control terminal, that is, each gating control circuit 00 is connected to a gating control terminal SEN in a one-to-one correspondence. When the signal of the gating control terminal SEN is valid, the gating control circuit 00 starts working.

[0061] Exemplarily, the at least two display panels include adjacent first and second display panels, and the target pixel circuit 10 in the first display panel and the target pixel circuit 10 in the second display panel are located at a joint between the first and second display panels.

[0062] See Figure 3 As shown, a certain spliced ​​screen is configured by splicing display panel a and display panel b vertically, wherein display panel a is connected to source driver circuit a, and display panel b is connected to source driver circuit b. The above-mentioned display panel a includes k pixel circuits, namely pixel circuit a1 to pixel circuit ak, and the above-mentioned k pixel circuits are all connected to source driver circuit a. At the same time, display panel a also includes x target pixel circuits, namely target pixel circuit a1 to target pixel circuit ax, and the above-mentioned x target pixel circuits are also connected to source driver circuit a. In order to perform threshold compensation on the target pixel circuits, display panel a also includes x gating control circuits, namely gating control circuit a1 to gating control circuit ax, and the above-mentioned x gating control circuits are respectively connected to the x target pixel circuits in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0063] The display panel b includes k pixel circuits, namely pixel circuit b1 through pixel circuit bk, each of which is connected to the source driver circuit b. Furthermore, the display panel b also includes y target pixel circuits, namely target pixel circuit b1 through target pixel circuit by, each of which is also connected to the source driver circuit b. To perform threshold compensation on the target pixel circuits, the display panel b also includes y gating control circuits, namely gating control circuit b1 through gating control circuit by, each of which is connected in a one-to-one correspondence with the y target pixel circuits 10.

[0064] Exemplarily, the first display panel includes m rows and n columns of gate control circuits and m rows and n columns of target pixel circuits.

[0065] The gate control circuits 00 in the mth row and the nth column and the target pixel circuits 10 in the mth row and the nth column are connected in a one-to-one correspondence, where m and n are positive integers.

[0066] Exemplarily, the second display panel includes a row and b columns of gate control circuits and a row and b columns of target pixel circuits 10 .

[0067] The strobe control circuits 00 in row a and column b are connected to the target pixel circuits 10 in row a and column b in a one-to-one correspondence, where a and b are positive integers.

[0068] It is also necessary to add that, see Figure 3 As shown, the display panel a and the display panel b are spliced ​​together to form a splice, which includes a target pixel circuit located in the x row and 1 column of the display panel a and a target pixel circuit 10 located in the y row and 1 column of the display panel b. Accordingly, the number of the gate control circuits 00 in the display panel a is also x, and the number of the gate control circuits in the display panel b is also y. The connection relationship between each gate control circuit 00 and each target pixel circuit 10 is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, I will not go into details here.

[0069] For example, see Figure 4 As shown, the target pixel circuits 10 in display panel 1 have a total of m rows and n columns, and each target pixel circuit 10 is connected to the source driver circuit 1 via the gate control circuits M111…M1mn. The target pixel circuits 10 in display panel 2 have a total of m rows and n columns, and each target pixel circuit 10 is connected to the source driver circuit 2 via the gate control circuits M211…M2mn. The target pixel circuits in display panel 3 have a total of m rows and n columns, and each target pixel circuit 10 is connected to the source driver circuit 3 via the gate control circuits M311…M3mn. The target pixel circuits 10 in display panel 4 have a total of m rows and n columns, and each target pixel circuit 10 is connected to the source driver circuit 4 via the gate control circuits M411…M4mn.

[0070] The above-mentioned selection control circuit 00 is also connected to the source driving circuit. The selection control circuit 00 is configured to provide the driving voltage signal generated after the target pixel circuit 10 receives the compensation data voltage to the source driving circuit in response to the signal of the selection control terminal SEN during the blank time period to determine the threshold compensation voltage, wherein the driving voltage signal is determined based on the compensation data voltage and the threshold voltage of the driving transistor in the target pixel circuit 10.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the threshold compensation voltage is obtained based on the driving voltage signal, and the driving voltage signal is obtained by the gate control circuit 00. During implementation, during the blanking period, which is usually between two display frames, and when the signal of the gate control terminal SEN is valid, the gate control circuit SEN provides the driving voltage signal to the source driver circuit. The driving voltage signal is the difference between the compensation data voltage and the threshold voltage of the driving transistor DTFT in the target pixel circuit.

[0072] In addition, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the target pixel circuit 10 in the embodiment of the present application includes a driving transistor DTFT.

[0073] The gate control circuit 00 is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor DTFT.

[0074] For example, see Figure 6 As shown, the gating control circuit 00 includes: a gating transistor M1.

[0075] The control terminal of the gate transistor M1 is connected to the gate control terminal SEN, the first terminal of the gate transistor M1 is connected to the source driving circuit, and the second terminal of the gate transistor M1 is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor DTFT.

[0076] Exemplarily, the gate transistor M1 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the gate control terminal SEN, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the gate control terminal SEN. Exemplarily, if the gate transistor M1 is configured as an N-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the gate control terminal SEN is a high level, and the inactive level of the signal at the gate control terminal SEN is a low level. Alternatively, if the gate transistor M1 is configured as a P-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the gate control terminal SEN is a low level, and the inactive level of the signal at the gate control terminal SEN is a high level.

[0077] See Figure 6 As shown, the selection transistor M1 is a P-type transistor. When the signal of the selection control terminal SEN is at a low level, the selection transistor M1 is turned on, and the driving voltage signal of the control terminal of the driving transistor DTFT is provided to the source driving circuit through the turned-on selection transistor M1.

[0078] The following continues to introduce the circuit composition of the pixel circuit (including the target pixel circuit 10) in this application.

[0079] See Figure 7 As shown, the pixel circuit includes: a driving transistor DTFT, a light-emitting device OLED, a conduction control subcircuit 10, a data writing subcircuit 20, a first light-emitting control subcircuit 30 and a second light-emitting control subcircuit 40.

[0080] The driving transistor DTFT is configured to generate a driving current according to the compensated data voltage.

[0081] In an embodiment of the present application, during the blank time period, the light-emitting device OLED in the pixel circuit does not emit light, that is, the driving transistor DTFT does not generate current according to the driving voltage signal; during the display frame stage, the driving transistor DTFT can generate a driving current according to the compensation data voltage, thereby causing the light-emitting device OLED to emit light under the action of the driving current.

[0082] See Figure 8 As shown, the conduction control subcircuit 10 is connected to the control terminal and the second terminal of the driving transistor DTFT, and is configured to conduct the control terminal and the second terminal of the driving transistor DTFT in response to the signal of the scanning signal terminal Gate.

[0083] See Figure 8 As shown, the conduction control subcircuit 10 includes: a first transistor T1.

[0085] Exemplarily, the first transistor T1 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the scan signal terminal Gate, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the scan signal terminal Gate. Exemplarily, if the first transistor T1 is configured as an N-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a high level, and the inactive level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a low level. Alternatively, if the first transistor T1 is configured as a P-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a low level, and the inactive level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a high level.

[0086] See Figure 8 As shown, the first transistor T1 is a P-type transistor. When the signal of the scanning signal terminal Gate is at a low level, the first transistor T1 is turned on, and the control terminal of the driving transistor DTFT is turned on through the turned-on first transistor T1 and the second terminal of the driving transistor DTFT.

[0087] See Figure 8 As shown, the data writing sub-circuit 20 is connected to the first end of the driving transistor DTFT and is configured to respond to the signal of the scanning signal terminal Gate with different timings to provide the preselected data voltage and the compensation data voltage of the data signal terminal to the first end of the driving transistor DTFT respectively.

[0089] The control end of the data writing transistor M2 is connected to the scan signal end Gate, the first end of the data writing transistor M2 is connected to the first end of the driving transistor DTFT, and the second end of the data writing transistor M2 is connected to the data signal end.

[0090] Exemplarily, the data write transistor M2 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the scan signal terminal Gate, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the scan signal terminal Gate. Exemplarily, if the data write transistor M2 is configured as an N-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a high level, and the inactive level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a low level. Alternatively, if the data write transistor M2 is configured as a P-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a low level, and the inactive level of the signal at the scan signal terminal Gate is a high level.

[0091] See Figure 8 As shown, the data writing transistor M2 is a P-type transistor. When the signal of the scanning signal terminal Gate is at a low level, the data writing transistor M2 is turned on, and the compensated data voltage of the data signal terminal or the compensated data voltage is provided to the first end of the driving transistor DTFT through the turned-on data writing transistor M2.

[0092] See Figure 8 As shown, the first light emitting control sub-circuit 30 is connected to the first power supply terminal ELVDD and the first end of the driving transistor DTFT, and is configured to connect the first end of the driving transistor DTFT to the first power supply terminal ELVDD in response to the signal of the first light emitting control signal terminal EM.

[0093] See Figure 8 As shown, the first light emitting control sub-circuit 30 includes: a second transistor T2.

[0094] The control end of the second transistor T2 is connected to the first light emitting control signal end EM, the first end of the second transistor T2 is connected to the first power supply end ELVDD, and the second end of the second transistor T2 is connected to the first end of the driving transistor DTFT and the first end of the data writing transistor M2.

[0095] Exemplarily, the second transistor T2 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM. Exemplarily, if the second transistor T2 is configured as an N-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a high level, and the inactive level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a low level. Alternatively, if the second transistor T2 is configured as a P-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a low level, and the inactive level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a high level.

[0096] See Figure 8 As shown, the second transistor T2 is a P-type transistor. When the signal of the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is at a low level, the second transistor T2 is turned on, and the first power supply terminal ELVDD is turned on through the turned-on second transistor T2, the first terminal of the driving transistor DTFT, and the first terminal of the data writing transistor M2.

[0097] See Figure 8 As shown, the second light emitting control sub-circuit 40 is connected to the anode of the light emitting device OLED and the second end of the driving transistor DTFT, and is configured to connect the second end of the driving transistor DTFT to the anode of the light emitting device OLED in response to the signal of the first light emitting control signal terminal EM.

[0098] See Figure 8 As shown, the second light emitting control sub-circuit 40 includes: a third transistor T3.

[0099] The control end of the third transistor T3 is connected to the first light emitting control signal end EM, the first end of the third transistor T3 is connected to the second end of the driving transistor DTFT, and the second end of the third transistor T3 is connected to the anode of the light emitting device OLED.

[0100] Exemplarily, the third transistor T3 can be turned on under the control of the active level of the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM, and can be turned off under the control of the inactive level of the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM. Exemplarily, if the third transistor T3 is configured as an N-type transistor, the active level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a high level, and the inactive level of the signal at the first light-emitting control signal terminal EM is a low level.
