[0104] The embodiment of the present application provides a shift register, Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a shift register provided by the embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 1 The shift register comprises a node voltage control module 110, a first output module 120 and a second output module 130, the node voltage control module 110 is connected to a first node N1 and a second node N2, the first output module 120 is connected to the first node N1 and the second node N2, and the second output module 130 is connected to the first node N1 and / or the second node N2; the node voltage control module 110 is used for controlling the potential of the first node N1 and the second node N2; the first output module 120 is used for outputting a first gate driving signal through a first output end OUT1 according to the potential of the first node N1 and the second node N2; the second output module 130 is used for outputting a second gate driving signal through a second output end OUT2 according to the potential of the first node N1 and / or the second node N2; the first gate driving signal and the second gate driving signal are different.
[0105] The node voltage control module 110 can be connected to input signals, and the number of input signals can be multiple. For example, the input signals include, but are not limited to, a start signal and one or at least two clock signals. The node voltage control module 110 transmits corresponding voltages to the first node N1 and the second node N2 according to the input signals during different operating periods of the shift register. The first node N1 and the second node N2 have different potentials at least for some periods, for example, opposite potentials, opposite high / low values, or opposite polarities.
[0106] The first output module 120 is connected to the first node N1 and the second node N2 respectively. The first output module 120 can output a first gate drive signal to the first output terminal OUT1 of the shift register according to the potentials of the first node N1 and the second node N2. The first gate drive signal includes a first-level signal and a second-level signal. Specifically, during a certain period of operation, the first gate drive signal is a first-level signal; during another period of operation, the first gate drive signal is a second-level signal. The first gate drive signal is used to drive a first-channel type transistor.
[0107] The second output module 130 is connected to the first node N1 and / or the second node N2. The second output module 130 can output a second gate drive signal to the second output terminal OUT2 of the shift register according to the potential of the first node N1 and / or the second node N2. The second gate drive signal includes a first level signal and a second level signal. In some embodiments, the second output module 130 is connected to the first node N1, and the second output module 130 outputs the second gate drive signal to the second output terminal OUT2 of the shift register according to the potential of the first node N1. In other embodiments, the second output module 130 is connected to the second node N2 (…). Figure 1 (As shown in the illustration), the second output module 130 outputs a second gate drive signal to the second output terminal OUT2 of the shift register according to the potential of the second node N2. In other embodiments, the second output module 130 is connected to the first node N1 and the second node N2 respectively, and the second output module 130 outputs the second gate drive signal to the second output terminal OUT2 of the shift register according to the potentials of the first node N1 and the second node N2. Specifically, during a certain period of operation, the second gate drive signal is a first-level signal; during another period of operation, the second gate drive signal is a second-level signal. The second gate drive signal is used to drive a transistor of a second channel type. The first channel type is P-channel, and the second channel type is N-channel, or the first channel type is N-channel, and the second channel type is P-channel. By outputting gate drive signals that can simultaneously drive transistors of two channel types through the same shift register, it is not necessary to set up different gate drive circuits for each type of transistor, which can reduce the bezel of the display panel.
[0108] The shift register of the embodiment can output two different gate driving signals through the same shift register, for example, can meet the driving requirement of the pixel circuit including P-type transistor and N-type transistor, and can reduce the frame of the display panel and improve the user experience.
[0109] Optionally, one or more of the pulse width, pulse amplitude, and positive and negative polarity of the pulse amplitude of the first gate driving signal and the second gate driving signal are different; and / or, the first gate driving signal and the second gate driving signal are used to drive transistors of different channel types. In this way, the first gate driving signal and the second gate driving signal can drive different transistors, for example, drive transistors turned on in different working stages of the pixel circuit of the display panel, and / or drive transistors of different channel types, meet the driving requirement of the pixel circuit, and at the same time reduce the frame of the display panel.
[0110] As described in the above embodiment, the first gate driving signal includes a first level signal and a second level signal; the second gate driving signal includes a first level signal and a second level signal, in some optional embodiments of the present application, the first gate driving signal is used to drive a P-type transistor, and the second gate driving signal is used to drive an N-type transistor; the voltage of the first level signal is lower than the voltage of the second level signal; the second output module 130 includes a P-type transistor, and the second output module 130 is used to output the first level signal through the P-type transistor.
[0111] Specifically, in the related art, the first level signal in the second gate driving signal is output through an N-type oxide transistor, and because the mobility of the oxide transistor is low, when the transistor characteristics fluctuate due to stress, the output waveform stability of the second gate driving signal is poor, and the reliability of the gate driving circuit is reduced. In the embodiment, the second output module 130 includes a P-type transistor, and the first level signal is output through the P-type transistor, wherein the P-type transistor included in the second output module 130 can be a polysilicon transistor, for example, a low-temperature polysilicon transistor, and compared with the N-type oxide transistor, the P-type transistor has higher mobility, which can improve the output stability of the second gate driving signal and improve the reliability of the gate driving circuit.

The second output submodule 132 is connected to the second node N2, and is configured to control the potential of the second output end OUT2 according to the potential of the second node N2. For example, the second output submodule 132 is configured to transmit the first level signal VGL to the second output end OUT2 according to the potential of the second node N2.
[0113] Specifically, in the second output module 130, the first output submodule 131 can control whether the voltage of the second power line and / or the second level signal VGH is output to the second output terminal OUT2, and the second output submodule 132 can control whether the voltage of the first power line and / or the first level signal VGL is output to the second output terminal OUT2. For example, the on period of the first output submodule 131 and the on period of the second output submodule 132 are different at least in part. For example, the first output submodule 131 and the second output submodule 132 are turned on in time division.

[0130] Figure 4 is another structure diagram of a shift register provided by an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 4 , the shift register can correspond to the case that the second output sub-module 132 is connected to the second node N2. Optionally, the second output sub-module 132 comprises an output control unit 1321 and an output unit 1322, the output control unit 1321 is connected to the second node N2, the output control unit 1321 is connected to the third node N3, and the output unit 1322 is connected to the third node N3; the output control unit 1321 is also connected to a preset clock signal, and the output control unit 1321 is used to control the potential of the third node N3 according to the potential of the second node N2 and the preset clock signal, so that at least part of the time period (for example, after the t1 stage in the stable working state of the shift register), the potential of the third node N3 is positively correlated with the potential of the first node N1, and / or the potential of the third node N3 is inversely correlated with the potential of the second node N2.

The potential of the first node N1 and the potential of the third node N3 jump from low to high at the same time, and / or the potential of the first node N1 and the potential of the third node N3 jump from high to low at the same time.
[0134] Optionally, at least in part of the period (for example, in the stable state of the shift register, for example, after the stage t1), the potential of the third node N3 is inversely related to the potential of the second node N2, that is, when the potential of the second node N2 jumps from low to high, the potential of the third node N3 jumps from high to low; when the potential of the second node N2 jumps from high to low, the potential of the second node N2 jumps from low to high. Optionally, the potentials of the second node N2 and the third node N3 are opposite.
[0135] Specifically, the output control unit 1321 controls the potential of the third node N3 to be positively related to the potential of the first node N1 according to the potential of the second node N2 and the preset clock signal CK1. Since the node voltage control module 110 can control the potential of the first node N1 to be opposite to the potential of the second node N2, correspondingly, through the control of the output control module, the potential of the third node N3 can be opposite to the potential of the second node N2, so that the first output sub-module 131 and the output unit 1322 are conveniently controlled to be turned on at different times, and then the first output sub-module 131 is turned on and the output unit 1322 is turned off when the second level signal VGH is transmitted to the second output end OUT2; the first output sub-module 131 is turned off and the output unit 1322 is turned on when the first level signal VGL is transmitted to the second output end OUT2.
[0136] Optionally, the first output sub-module 131 includes a first transistor T1, the gate of the first transistor T1 is connected with the second node N2, and / or the potential of the gate of the first transistor T1 is positively related to the potential of the second node N2, and / or the potential of the gate of the first transistor T1 is inversely related to the potential of the first node N1, the first pole of the first transistor T1 is connected with the second power supply line or inputs the second level signal VGH, and the second pole of the first transistor T1 is connected with the second output end OUT2; the output unit 1322 includes a third transistor T3, the gate of the third transistor T3 is connected with the third node N3, and / or the potential of the gate of the third transistor T3 is inversely related to the potential of the second node N2, and / or the potential of the gate of the third transistor T3 is positively related to the potential of the first node N1, the first pole of the third transistor T3 is connected with the first power supply line or inputs the first level signal VGL, and the second pole of the third transistor T3 is connected with the second output end OUT2.

[0138] Specifically, under the control of the node voltage control module 110, the potential of the first node N1 is opposite to the potential of the second node N2. When the potential of the first node N1 is the first level signal VGL, the potential of the second node N2 is the second level signal VGH. When the potential of the second node N2 is the second level signal VGH, the output control unit 1321 controls the potential of the third node N3 to be a third level signal lower than the first level signal VGL according to the first clock signal CK1, so that the gate of the third transistor T3 is the third level signal, the first pole of the third transistor T3 is the first level signal VGL, and the voltage difference between the gate and the first pole of the third transistor T3 is large in absolute value, so that the on state of the third transistor T3 is better, and the first level signal VGL input to the first pole of the third transistor T3 can be transmitted to the second output end OUT2 with equal amplitude, improving the stability of the output of the third transistor T3, ensuring that the on or off state of the transistor driven by the second gate drive signal is better, and helping to improve the display effect. For example, when the transistor driven by the second gate drive signal is an N-type transistor, the first level signal VGL is a low-level signal, and the second level signal VGH is a high-level signal, the N-type transistor driven by the second gate drive signal can be completely turned off under the action of the first level signal VGL in the second gate drive signal.

[0140] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the absolute value of the voltage difference between the third level signal and the voltage of the first power supply line is greater than or equal to the absolute value of the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3. In this way, when the potential of the third node N3 is the third level signal, the third transistor T3 can be completely turned on, further ensuring that when the third transistor T3 is turned on, the first level signal VGL can be transmitted to the second output end OUT2 with equal amplitude, thereby improving the display effect.

[0144] Figure 5 is another structure diagram of a shift register provided by an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 5 Optionally, the output control unit 1321 comprises a charge-discharge control sub-unit 13212, a coupling sub-unit 1323 and a unidirectional conduction sub-unit 1324; the charge-discharge control sub-unit 13212 is connected with the second node N2, a first end of the coupling sub-unit 1323 and a second end of the coupling sub-unit 1323 respectively; the second end of the coupling sub-unit 1323 is connected with a first end of the unidirectional conduction sub-unit 1324; a second end of the unidirectional conduction sub-unit 1324 is connected with the third node N3; the charge-discharge control sub-unit 13212 is configured to charge and / or discharge the coupling sub-unit 1323 according to the potential of the second node N2 and a preset clock signal; the coupling sub-unit 1323 is configured to couple the potential change of the first end to the second end; and the unidirectional conduction sub-unit 1324 is configured to be turned on when the potential of the first end of the unidirectional conduction sub-unit 1324 is lower than the potential of the third node N3.
[0145] The preset clock signal is a periodic signal, and the preset clock signal includes first voltage level signal VGL pulses and second voltage level signal VGH pulses arranged alternately. Specifically, when the potential of the second node N2 is the first voltage level signal VGL, the charge-discharge control subunit 13212 transmits the second voltage level signal VGH to the first end of the coupling subunit 1323, so that the potential of the first end of the coupling subunit 1323 rises. Due to the coupling effect of the coupling subunit 1323 itself, the potential of the second end of the coupling subunit 1323 is pulled high, and the unidirectional conduction subunit 1324 is turned off. When the potential of the second node N2 is the second voltage level signal VGH, the charge-discharge control subunit 13212 alternately charges and discharges the coupling subunit 1323 according to the high-low potential transition of the preset clock signal. Specifically, when the potential of the second node N2 is the second voltage level signal VGH and the preset clock signal transitions from high to low, the coupling subunit 1323 discharges, the potential of the first end of the coupling subunit 1323 decreases, due to the coupling effect of the coupling subunit 1323 itself, the potential of the second end of the coupling subunit 1323 is pulled low, the unidirectional conduction subunit 1324 is turned on, the potential of the third node N3 is pulled low, so that the potential of the third node N3 is lower than the first voltage level signal VGL, and the output unit 1322 is turned on to transmit the first voltage level signal VGL to the second output end OUT2 with the same amplitude. When the potential of the second node N2 is the second voltage level signal VGH and the preset clock signal transitions from low to high, the coupling subunit 1323 is charged, the potential of the first end of the coupling subunit 1323 rises, due to the coupling effect of the coupling subunit 1323 itself, the potential of the second end of the coupling subunit 1323 rises, the unidirectional conduction subunit 1324 is turned off, and the potential of the third node N3 remains low, so that the potential of the third node N3 is lower than the first voltage level signal VGL, and the output unit 1322 is turned on to transmit the first voltage level signal VGL to the second output end OUT2 with the same amplitude.
[0146] With reference to Figure 5 Optionally, the charge-discharge control subunit 13212 includes a fourth transistor T4 and a fifth transistor T5.

[0149] Optionally, the second capacitor C2 is greater than the first capacitor C1, so that the coupling effect of the first capacitor C1 is smaller, avoiding the inclination of the jump edge of the waveform of the gate drive signal output by the second output end OUT2 due to the too long jump time of the jump edge, and improving the reliability of the output signal.
[0150] Optionally, the unidirectional conduction subunit 1324 comprises a sixth transistor T6, a gate of the sixth transistor T6 being connected with a first electrode of the sixth transistor T6, the gate of the sixth transistor T6 being connected with the second end of the coupling subunit 1323, and a second electrode of the sixth transistor T6 being connected with the third node N3.
[0151] The sixth transistor T6 can comprise a P-type transistor. The channel type of the sixth transistor T6 and the fifth transistor T5 can be the same. The channel type of the sixth transistor T6 and the fourth transistor T4 can be the same.
[0152] Figure 6 is when the potential of the second node is the second-level signal Figure 5 is an equivalent circuit diagram of the output control unit, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6When the potential of the second node N2 is the first level signal VGL, the fourth transistor T4 is turned on, and the second level signal VGH is transmitted to the second electrode of the fourth transistor T4 and the first end of the coupling subunit 1323, wherein the connection point of the second electrode of the fourth transistor T4 and the first end of the coupling subunit 1323 is recorded as the fourth node N4, and thus when the second node N2 is the first level signal VGL, the fourth node N4 is the second level signal VGH. The potential of the first end of the second capacitor C2 is pulled up, and due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the second end (recorded as the fifth node N5) of the second capacitor C2 is also pulled up, so that the sixth transistor T6 is turned off. When the potential of the second node N2 is the second level signal VGH, the fourth transistor T4 is turned off. In the case that the preset clock signal is the first clock signal CK1, when the first clock signal CK1 jumps from high level to low level, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on, and the low-level first clock signal CK1 is transmitted to the fourth node N4 to discharge the second capacitor C2. Due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the second end (the fifth node N5) of the first capacitor C1 is pulled down, so that when the potential of the second end of the first capacitor C1 is lower than the potential of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, and then the potential of the third node N3 is lower than the first level signal VGL, the output unit 1322 is turned on, and the first level signal VGL is transmitted to the second output end OUT2 with the same amplitude. When the first clock signal CK1 jumps from low level to high level, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on, and the high-level first clock signal CK1 is transmitted to the fourth node N4 to charge the second capacitor C2. Due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the second end (the fifth node N5) of the second capacitor C2 is raised, the unidirectional conduction subunit 1324 is turned off, the third node N3 still maintains a low potential, so that the potential of the third node N3 is still lower than the first level signal VGL, and the output unit 1322 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL to the second output end OUT2 with the same amplitude.

Optionally, the first voltage level pulse of the start signal SIN is one or more, the first voltage level pulse of the start signal SIN overlaps the first voltage level pulse of the second clock signal CK2, and does not overlap the first voltage level pulse of the first clock signal CK1.
[0161] Specifically, the input unit 111 is turned on when the second clock signal CK2 is the first level signal VGL. The first control unit 112 transmits the second level signal VGH to the first node N1 when the second node N2 is the first level signal VGL, and transmits the first level signal VGL to the first node N1 when the second node N2 is the second level signal VGH. The second control unit 113 transmits the second level signal VGH to the second node N2 when the first node N1 is the first level signal VGL and the first clock signal CK1 is the first level signal VGL.

Taking the tenth transistor T10 as a P-type transistor as an example, the tenth transistor T10 is arranged to prevent the second node N2 from being coupled to an extremely low level, so that the extremely low level is blocked by the tenth transistor T10 and cannot be transmitted to the common end (i.e., the sixth node N6) of the tenth transistor T10 and the ninth transistor T9, thereby protecting the transistor in the second control unit 113 and the ninth transistor T9 connected to the tenth transistor T10 from being damaged due to excessive voltage difference, and improving the reliability of the shift register.

The first electrode of the twelfth transistor T12 is connected with the first power supply line or inputs the first level signal VGL. The second electrode of the twelfth transistor T12 is connected with the first node N1. Optionally, the eleventh transistor T11 is a P-type transistor, and the twelfth transistor T12 is an N-type transistor. By setting the shift register to include both P-type transistors and N-type transistors, the number of transistor devices included in the shift register can be reduced, which is conducive to reducing the frame and improving the user experience. Optionally, the P-type transistor is a polysilicon transistor, for example, a low-temperature polysilicon transistor, and the N-type transistor is an oxide transistor. The inverter in the first control unit 112 includes the eleventh transistor T11 and the twelfth transistor T12.
[0165] Specifically, in the case where the ninth transistor T9 is directly connected with the fourth output sub-module (including the eighth transistor T8) at the second node N2, the gate of the eleventh transistor T11 is directly connected with the second node N2. In the case where the ninth transistor T9 is connected with the fourth output sub-module 122 through the tenth transistor T10, the gate of the eleventh transistor T11 is connected with the second electrode (the sixth node N6) of the ninth transistor T9. The same applies to the twelfth transistor T12, which will not be described here. The eleventh transistor T11 is turned on when the second node N2 is the first level signal VGL or the second electrode (the sixth node N6) of the ninth transistor T9 is the first level signal VGL, and transmits the second level signal VGH to the first node N1. The twelfth transistor T12 is turned on when the second node N2 is the second level signal VGH or the second electrode (the sixth node N6) of the ninth transistor T9 is the second level signal VGH, and transmits the first level signal VGL to the first node N1.

One of the gate of the thirteenth transistor T13 and the gate of the fourteenth transistor T14 is connected with the first node N1, and the other inputs the first clock signal CK1. The second electrode of the fourteenth transistor T14 is connected with the second electrode or the second node N2 of the ninth transistor T9.

[0169] Specifically, when the first node N1 is the first level signal VGL, the thirteenth transistor T13 is turned on to transmit the second level signal VGH from the first electrode of the thirteenth transistor T13 to the first electrode of the fourteenth transistor T14. When the first clock signal CK1 is the first level signal VGL, the fourteenth transistor T14 is turned on to transmit the signal of the first electrode of the fourteenth transistor T14 to the second electrode (the fifth node N5) of the ninth transistor T9 or the second node N2. When the first node N1 is the first level signal VGL and the first clock signal CK1 of the gate of the fourteenth transistor T14 is the first level signal VGL, the second level signal VGH is transmitted to the second electrode (the sixth node N6) of the ninth transistor T9 or the second node N2 through the thirteenth transistor T13 and the fourteenth transistor T14.

[0172] Figure 12 This is a timing diagram of a shift register provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The timing diagram corresponds to... Figure 10 The shift register shown is referenced. Figure 10 and Figure 12 Taking transistors T1, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, T8, T9, T10, T11, T13, and T14 as P-type transistors and T12 as an N-type transistor, and using the first level signal VGL as a low level signal and the second level signal VGH as a high level signal as an example, the working timing of the shift register includes the following stages.
[0173] In the first stage t1, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low level signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned on in response to the second clock signal CK2, and the high level signal of the start signal SIN is transmitted to the second node N2 through the ninth transistor T9 and the tenth transistor T10, and the eighth transistor T8 is turned off. The twelfth transistor T12 is turned on according to the high level signal of the sixth node N6, and the first level signal VGL (low level signal) is transmitted to the first node N1, and the seventh transistor T7 is turned on according to the low level signal of the first node N1, and the second level signal VGH (high level signal) is output to the first output terminal OUT1 through the seventh transistor T7. The fourth transistor T4 is turned off according to the high level signal of the second node N2, and the fifth transistor T5 is turned on according to the initial potential of the fifth node N5, wherein the initial potential of the fifth node N5 is a low level signal (for example, equal to the ground level) in the initial state, and therefore the fifth transistor T5 is turned on to transmit the high level first clock signal CK1 to the fourth node N4, so that the potential of the fourth node N4 is raised, and due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is also raised. In the initial state, no signal is input to the third node N3, and therefore the initial potential of the third node N3 can be considered as a low level signal, and therefore the potential of the fifth node N5 is higher than that of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0174] In the first intermediate state stage t12, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low level signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned off according to the second clock signal CK2 in the shift register, the sixth node N6 and the second node N2 maintain the high level of the first stage t1, so that the twelfth transistor T12 remains turned on, and the first node N1 is still low. Because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that of the first stage t1, and the first clock signal CK1 is the same as that of the first stage t1, the potential state of the third node N3 is the same as that of the first stage t1, the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0175] In the second stage t2, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a high level signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned off in response to the second clock signal CK2, and no signal is transmitted to the sixth node N6. The sixth node N6 remains at the high level of the previous stage, and the second node N2 remains at the high level of the previous stage. The eighth transistor T8 is turned off. The twelfth transistor T12 remains turned on, and the seventh transistor T7 remains turned on. The second level signal VGH is transmitted to the first output terminal OUT1 through the seventh transistor T7. Due to the jump of the first clock signal CK1 from the high level to the low level, the potential of the fourth node N4 is reduced. Due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is reduced. When the potential of the fifth node N5 is reduced to be lower than the potential of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, the lower potential is transmitted to the third node N3, and the third transistor T3 is in a good turned-on state, transmitting the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0176] In the second intermediate state stage t23, the start signal SIN is a high level signal for a period of time and is a low level signal for a period of time, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a high level signal, the second clock signal CK2 remains at a high level signal, the ninth transistor T9 in the shift register is turned off according to the first clock signal CK1, the sixth node N6 and the second node N2 maintain the high level of the second stage t2, the twelfth transistor T12 remains turned on, the first node N1 remains at a low level, the seventh transistor T7 remains turned on, and the second level signal VGH is transmitted to the first output terminal OUT1 through the seventh transistor T7. Due to the jump of the first clock signal CK1 from the low level to the high level, the potential of the fourth node N4 is increased. Due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is increased. The sixth transistor T6 is turned off, the third node N3 can maintain the potential of the second stage t2, the third transistor T3 remains in a good turned-on state, and the first level signal VGL (low level signal) is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0177] In the third stage t3, the start signal SIN is a low signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned on in response to the second clock signal CK1, and the low signal of the start signal SIN is transmitted to the second node N2 through the ninth transistor T9 and the tenth transistor T10. The eighth transistor T8 is turned on in response to the low signal of the second node N2, and the high first clock signal CK1 is transmitted to the first output terminal OUT1. The eleventh transistor T11 is turned on in response to the low signal of the sixth node N6, and the second level signal VGH (high signal) is transmitted to the first node N1, and the seventh transistor T7 is turned off in response to the high signal of the first node N1. The first transistor T1 is turned on in response to the low signal of the second node N2, and the second level signal VGH (high signal) is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT2. The fourth transistor T4 is turned on in response to the low signal of the second node N2, and the second level signal VGH (high signal) is transmitted to the fourth node N4. That is, the potential state of the fourth node N4 is the same as that in the second intermediate state stage t23, the potential of the fifth node N5 remains high, the fifth transistor T5 is turned off, the potential of the fifth node N5 is higher than that of the third node N3, and the sixth transistor T6 is turned off.
[0178] In the third intermediate state stage t34, the start signal SIN is a low signal for a period of time and a high signal for another period of time, the first clock signal CK1 is a high signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high signal. The ninth transistor T9 in the shift register is turned off in response to the second clock signal CK2, and the sixth node N6 and the second node N2 maintain the low level in the third stage t3. The eighth transistor T8 is turned on in response to the low level of the second node N2, and the high second clock signal CK2 is transmitted to the first output terminal OUT1. The eleventh transistor T11 is turned on in response to the low level of the sixth node N6, and the second level signal VGH (high signal) is transmitted to the first node N1, so that the seventh transistor T7 is turned off. Because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that in the third stage t3, and the first clock signal CK1 is the same as that in the third stage t3, the potential states of the fourth node N4, the fifth node N4, and the third node N3 are the same as those in the third stage t3, and the third transistor T3 is turned off. The first transistor T1 is turned on, and the second level signal VGH (high signal) is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0179] In the fourth stage t4, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, the second clock signal CK2 is a high level signal, the ninth transistor T9 is turned off in response to the second clock signal CK2, and no signal is transmitted to the sixth node N6. The sixth node N6 keeps the low level of the last stage, and accordingly, the second node N2 keeps the low level of the last stage. The eighth transistor T8 is turned on to transmit the low level first clock signal CK1 to the first output terminal OUT1. The eleventh transistor T11 keeps being turned on, the first node N1 is a high level signal, and accordingly, the seventh transistor T7 keeps being turned off. Because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that in the third stage t3, the first transistor T1 is turned on to transmit the second level signal VGH (a high level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2. The states of the third node N3, the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 are the same as those in the third intermediate stage t34.
[0180] In the fourth intermediate stage t45, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high level signal. The ninth transistor T9 in the shift register is turned off according to the second clock signal CK2, the sixth node N6 and the second node N2 maintain the low level of the fourth stage t4, so that the eleventh transistor T11 keeps being turned on, and the first node N1 is still a high level. The eighth transistor T8 still maintains being turned on to transmit the high level second clock signal CK2 to the first output terminal OUT1. Because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that in the fourth stage t4, the first transistor T1 is turned on to transmit the second level signal VGH (a high level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2. The states of the third node N3, the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 are the same as those in the fourth stage t4.
[0181] In the fifth stage t5, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low level signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned on in response to the second clock signal CK2, and the high level signal of the start signal SIN is transmitted to the second node N2 through the ninth transistor T9 and the tenth transistor T10, and the eighth transistor T8 is turned off. The twelfth transistor T12 is turned on according to the high level signal of the sixth node N6, and the first level signal VGL (low level signal) is transmitted to the first node N1, and the seventh transistor T7 is turned on according to the low level signal of the first node N1, and the second level signal VGH (high level signal) is output to the first output terminal OUT1 through the seventh transistor T7. The fourth transistor T4 is turned off according to the high level signal of the second node N2, the first transistor T1 is turned off according to the high level of the second node N2, the second level signal VGH is no longer output to the second output terminal OUT2, and the potential of the second output terminal OUT2 is gradually lowered. Due to the coupling effect of the first capacitor C1, the potential of the third node N3 is gradually lowered, the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 remain high level, so that the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to output the first level signal VGL to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0182] In the fifth intermediate state stage t56, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high level signal. The ninth transistor T9 in the shift register is turned off according to the second clock signal CK2, the sixth node N6 and the second node N2 maintain the high level of the first stage t1, so that the twelfth transistor T12 remains turned on, and the first node N1 is still low. Because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that of the first stage t1, and the first clock signal CK1 is the same as that of the first stage t1, the potential state of the third node N3 is the same as that of the first stage t1, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0183] In the sixth stage t6, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a high level signal. The ninth transistor T9 is turned off in response to the second clock signal CK2, and no signal is transmitted to the sixth node N6, which remains at a high level of the previous stage. Accordingly, the second node N2 remains at a high level of the previous stage, and the eighth transistor T8 is turned off. The twelfth transistor T12 remains turned on, and accordingly, the seventh transistor T7 remains turned on. The second level signal VGH is transmitted to the first output end OUT1 through the seventh transistor T7. The fourth transistor T4 is turned off according to the high level signal of the second node N2. The fifth transistor T5 is turned on. Because the first clock signal CK1 jumps from a high level to a low level, the potential of the fourth node N4 is lowered, and the potential of the fifth node N5 is lowered due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2. When the potential of the fifth node N5 is lowered to be lower than the potential of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, and a lower potential is transmitted to the third node N3, so that the third transistor T3 is in a good turned-on state and transmits the first level signal VGL (a low level signal) to the second output end OUT2.
[0184] In subsequent processes, the fifth stage t5 and the sixth stage t6 are alternately repeated in the same timing. Until the start signal SIN becomes a pulse again, the stage t3 is entered again.
[0185] Figure 13 is another working timing diagram of a shift register provided by an embodiment of the present application. The working timing corresponds to the shift register shown in Figure 11 , and reference is made to Figure 11 and Figure 13 . Still taking the first transistor T1, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6, the seventh transistor T7, the eighth transistor T8, the ninth transistor T9, the tenth transistor T10, the eleventh transistor T11, the thirteenth transistor T13, and the fourteenth transistor T14 as P-type transistors, and the twelfth transistor T12 as an N-type transistor as examples, and taking the first level signal VGL as a low level signal and the second level signal VGH as a high level signal as examples, the working timing of the shift register includes the following stages.
[0186] In the first stage t1, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low level signal. As described in Figure 10The shift register shown in the first stage t1 is different in that the fifth transistor T5 is turned on according to the initial potential of the fifth node N5, and then the low-level second clock signal CK2 is transmitted to the fourth node N4, so that the potential of the fourth node N4 is lowered, and due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is also lowered, and since the fifth node N5 can be considered as a ground potential in the initial state, the potential of the fifth node N5 is lowered after being coupled, and the potential becomes lower. In the initial state, no signal is input to the third node N3, so the initial potential of the third node N3 can be considered as a low-level signal (for example, a ground level), so the potential of the fifth node N5 is lower than that of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first-level signal VGL (low-level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0187] In the first intermediate state stage t12, the start signal SIN is a high-level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high-level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a high-level signal. Compared with Figure 10 The shift register shown in the first intermediate state stage t12 is different in that the fifth node N5 is low in the first stage t1, so that at the initial moment of the first intermediate state stage t12, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on to transmit the high-level second clock signal CK2 to the fourth node N4, so that the potential of the fourth node N4 is raised, and due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is also raised, so that the potential of the fifth node N5 is higher than that of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third node N3 can still be kept low, so that the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first-level signal VGL (low-level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0188] In the second stage t2, the start signal SIN is a high-level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low-level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high-level signal. Compared with Figure 10 The shift register shown in the second stage t2 is different in that the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that in the first intermediate stage t12, and the potential state of the second clock signal CK2 is the same as that in the first intermediate stage t12, so that the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 are both turned off, the potential state of the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 is the same as that in the first intermediate stage t12, the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third node N3 can still be kept low, so that the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first-level signal VGL (low-level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0189] In the second intermediate state stage t23, the initial signal SIN is high for a period of time and low for a period of time. The first clock signal CK1 transitions to a high level, while the second clock signal CK2 remains high. Figure 10 The shift register shown differs in the second intermediate state stage from the following: since the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that of the second stage t2, and the potential state of the second clock signal CK2 is the same as that of the second stage t2, the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 are both turned off. The potential states of the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 are the same as those of the first intermediate stage t12. The sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third node N3 can still maintain a low level, so that the third transistor T3 is turned on, transmitting the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0190] In the third stage t3, the start signal SIN is a low-level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high-level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a low-level signal. Figure 11 The operation of the shift register shown in the third stage t3 is as follows: Figure 10 The operation of the shift register shown in the third stage t3 is basically the same. It should be noted that, due to... Figure 11 The first terminal of the fifth transistor T5 is connected to the second clock signal CK2. Therefore, at the beginning of the third stage t3, the high-to-low transition of the second clock signal CK2 will have a certain impact on the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5, causing the potential state of the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 to be pulled low at the beginning of the third stage t3, resulting in a spike. Subsequently, it quickly returns to the high level due to the conduction of the fourth transistor T4.
[0191] In the third intermediate state stage t34, the start signal SIN is a low-level signal for a period of time and a high-level signal for a period of time. The first clock signal CK1 is a high-level signal and the second clock signal CK2 is a high-level signal. Figure 11 The operation of the shift register in the third intermediate state t34 shown is similar to... Figure 10 The operation of the shift register shown is basically the same in the third intermediate stage t34.
[0192] In the fourth stage t4, the start signal SIN is a high-level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low-level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high-level signal. Figure 11 The operation of the shift register in the fourth stage t4 is shown. Figure 10 The shift register shown operates in essentially the same way during the fourth stage t4.
[0193] In the fourth intermediate state stage t45, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a high level signal. Figure 11 The operation of the shift register in the fourth intermediate state stage t45 is basically the same as that of the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4. Figure 10 The operation of the shift register in the fourth intermediate state stage t45 is basically the same as that of the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4.
[0194] In the fifth stage t5, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 is a low level signal. Compared with the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4, Figure 10 The difference between the shift register in the fifth stage t5 and the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4 is that the potential of the second output terminal OUT2 is gradually lowered, and due to the coupling effect of the first capacitor C1, the potential of the third node N3 is gradually lowered, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to output the first level signal VGL to the second output terminal OUT2. Since the second clock signal CK1 jumps from a high level to a low level, the potential of the fifth node N5 is lowered, so that the fifth transistor T5 is turned on, and the low level second clock signal CK2 is transmitted to the fourth node N4, the potential of the fourth node N4 is lowered, and when the sixth transistor T6 meets the turn-on condition, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, the third node N3 is at a low potential, and the third transistor T3 is turned on to output the first level signal VGL to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0195] In the fifth intermediate state stage t56, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 is a high level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a high level signal. Compared with the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4, Figure 10 The difference between the shift register in the fifth intermediate state stage t56 and the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4 is that, due to the low level of the fifth node N5 in the fifth stage t5, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on at the initial moment of the fifth intermediate state stage t56 to transmit the high level second clock signal CK2 to the fourth node N4, so that the potential of the fourth node N4 is raised. Due to the coupling effect of the second capacitor C2, the potential of the fifth node N5 is also raised, so that the potential of the fifth node N5 is higher than that of the third node N3, the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third node N3 can still maintain a low level, so that the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output terminal OUT2.
[0196] In the sixth stage t6, the start signal SIN is a high level signal, the first clock signal CK1 jumps to a low level signal, and the second clock signal CK2 jumps to a high level signal. Compared with the shift register shown in the fourth stage t4, Figure 10The shift register shown is different in the sixth stage t6, because the potential state of the second node N2 is the same as that in the fifth intermediate stage t56, and the potential state of the second clock signal CK2 is the same as that in the fifth intermediate stage t56, therefore, the fourth transistor T4 and the fifth transistor T5 are both turned off, the potential state of the fourth node N4 and the fifth node N5 is the same as that in the fifth intermediate stage t56, the sixth transistor T6 is turned off, and the third node N3 can still keep low, so that the third transistor T3 is turned on to transmit the first level signal VGL (low level signal) to the second output end OUT2.
[0197] In the subsequent process, the fifth stage t5 and the sixth stage t6 are alternately repeated in the same timing. Until the start signal SIN becomes a pulse again, the t3 stage is entered again.
