Abstract
Description
Pixel circuit, driving method and display device Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a pixel circuit, a driving method, and a display device. Background Art
[0002] In the related art, the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel are reset with the same initial voltage. For the first node (the first node is the node electrically connected to the control end of the driving circuit), since the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is relatively large, the data voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is different from the data voltages of the other color sub-pixels. Therefore, using the same initial voltage to reset the first node will cause display deviations caused by different charging rates; for the third node (the third node is the node electrically connected to the second end of the driving circuit), the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is greater than the pixel current of the red sub-pixel, the pixel current of the blue pixel is greater than the pixel current of the green sub-pixel, the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel is greater than the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the red sub-pixel, and the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel is greater than the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel. Therefore, using the same initial voltage to reset the second node is likely to cause display deviations.

[0049] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0050] The transistors used in all embodiments of the present disclosure may be thin film transistors, field effect transistors, or other devices with the same characteristics. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, to distinguish the two electrodes of the transistor except the gate, one electrode is referred to as the first electrode and the other electrode is referred to as the second electrode.
[0051] In actual operation, when the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field effect transistor, the first electrode may be a drain electrode, and the second electrode may be a source electrode; or, the first electrode may be a source electrode, and the second electrode may be a drain electrode.
[0052] The pixel circuit according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes N sub-pixels, N first initial voltage terminals, and N second initial voltage terminals, where N is an integer greater than 1; and n is a positive integer less than or equal to N.
[0053] The nth sub-pixel includes an nth driving circuit, an nth light-emitting element, an nth first initialization circuit, an nth second initialization circuit and an nth first light-emitting control circuit;
[0054] The control terminal of the nth driving circuit is electrically connected to the nth first node, the first terminal of the nth driving circuit is electrically connected to the nth second node, and the second terminal of the nth driving circuit is electrically connected to the nth third node, and the nth driving circuit is configured to generate a driving current for driving the nth light-emitting element under the control of the potential of the nth first node;
[0055] The nth first light-emitting control circuit is electrically connected to the light-emitting control terminal, the nth third node, and the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element, respectively, and is configured to control the connection between the nth third node and the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element under the control of a light-emitting control signal provided by the light-emitting control terminal to perform light-emitting control; the second electrode of the nth light-emitting element is electrically connected to the second voltage terminal;
[0056] The nth first initialization circuit is electrically connected to the first reset control terminal, the nth first initial voltage terminal, and the nth third node, respectively, and is configured to write the nth first initial voltage provided by the nth first initial voltage terminal into the nth third node under the control of a first reset control signal provided by the first reset control terminal, thereby initializing the potential of the nth third node;
[0057] The nth second initialization circuit is electrically connected to the second reset control terminal, the nth second initial voltage terminal, and the nth second node, respectively, and is configured to write the nth second initial voltage provided by the nth second initial voltage terminal into the nth second node under the control of a second reset control signal provided by the second reset control terminal, so as to initialize the potential of the nth second node;
[0058] The first initial voltages provided by at least two of the first initial voltage terminals are different from each other, and / or the second initial voltages provided by at least two of the second initial voltage terminals are different from each other.
[0059] In the related art, the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel are reset with the same initial voltage. For the first node (the first node is the node electrically connected to the control end of the driving circuit), since the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is relatively large, when the driving transistor included in the n-th driving circuit is a p-type transistor, the required data voltage is more negative, and the initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel should be lower. When the driving transistor included in the n-th driving circuit is an n-type transistor, the required data voltage is more positive, and the initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel should be higher to improve the charging rate. For the second node (the second node is the node electrically connected to the first end of the driving circuit), the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is greater than the pixel current of the red sub-pixel, the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is greater than the pixel current of the green sub-pixel, the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel is greater than the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the red sub-pixel, and the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel is greater than the hysteresis of the driving transistor in the blue sub-pixel. Therefore, using the same initial voltage to reset the second node can easily cause display deviation.
[0060] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first initial voltages provided by at least two of the first initial voltage terminals are different from each other, and / or the second initial voltages provided by at least two of the second initial voltage terminals are different from each other. The first nodes in each color sub-pixel can be reset by different initial voltages, and the second nodes in each color sub-pixel can be reset by different initial voltages. Multiple initial voltages are adjusted together to achieve higher precision image display at high frequency.
[0061] When the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the data voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is the smallest. If the first initial voltages corresponding to the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel are the same, then for the blue sub-pixel, the voltage difference between the data voltage and the first initial voltage is smaller, and the charging rate is smaller. Therefore, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the third first initial voltage is set to be smaller so that the charging rates of the corresponding red sub-pixels, the green sub-pixels, and the blue sub-pixels are substantially the same.
[0062] When the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the data voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is the largest. If the first initial voltages corresponding to the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel are the same, then for the blue sub-pixel, the voltage difference between the data voltage and the first initial voltage is larger, and the charging rate is larger. Therefore, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the third first initial voltage is set to be larger so that the charging rates corresponding to the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel are approximately the same.
[0063] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the voltage value of each first initial voltage can be greater than or equal to -5V and less than or equal to -3V, and the voltage value of each second initial voltage can be greater than or equal to 5V and less than or equal to 8V, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In specific implementations, the first initial voltage and the second initial voltage can be selected based on actual conditions.

[0080] The third second initialization circuit 32 is electrically connected to the second reset control terminal RH, the third second initial voltage terminal I32 and the third second node N32, respectively, and is configured to write the second second initial voltage provided by the second second initial voltage terminal I22 into the third second node N32 under the control of the second reset control signal provided by the second reset control terminal RH;
[0081] Optionally, the pixel circuit includes three sub-pixels, the first sub-pixel is a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel is a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel is a blue sub-pixel;
[0082] The first first initial voltage is different from the third first initial voltage, and the second first initial voltage is different from the third first initial voltage.

[0084] In a specific implementation, since the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is relatively large and the required data voltage is more negative, the third first initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is set to be different from the first initial voltages corresponding to the other two sub-pixels to avoid display deviation caused by using the same first initial voltage.
[0085] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the driving transistor included in each driving circuit is a p-type transistor, the first first initial voltage is greater than the third first initial voltage, and the second first initial voltage is greater than the third first initial voltage;
[0086] When each driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the first first initial voltage is smaller than the third first initial voltage, and the second first initial voltage is smaller than the third first initial voltage.
[0087] In a specific implementation, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the voltage value of the third first initial voltage can be set to be relatively small;
[0088] When the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the voltage value of the third first initial voltage can be set to be relatively large.
[0089] Optionally, the first first initial voltage is equal to the second first initial voltage.
[0090] In a specific implementation, the first initial voltage may be equal to the second first initial voltage.
[0091] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the first first initial voltage is less than the second first initial voltage; when the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the first first initial voltage is greater than the second first initial voltage.
[0092] In a specific implementation, since the pixel current of the red sub-pixel is greater than the pixel current of the green sub-pixel, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the first first initial voltage can be set to be less than the second first initial voltage so that the charging rate of the red sub-pixel and the charging rate of the green sub-pixel are approximately the same; when the driving transistor is an n-transistor, the first first initial voltage can be set to be greater than the second first initial voltage so that the charging rate of the red sub-pixel and the charging rate of the green sub-pixel are approximately the same.
[0093] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the pixel circuit includes three sub-pixels, the first sub-pixel is a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel is a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel is a blue sub-pixel;
[0094] The first second initial voltage is different from the third second initial voltage, and the second second initial voltage is different from the third second initial voltage.
[0095] In specific implementation, since the pixel current of the blue sub-pixel is relatively large, the required data voltage is more negative.
[0096] Therefore, the third second initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is set to be different from the second initial voltages corresponding to the other two sub-pixels, so as to avoid display deviation caused by using the same second initial voltage.
[0097] Optionally, when the driving transistor included in each driving circuit is a p-type transistor, the first second initial voltage is greater than the third second initial voltage, and the second second initial voltage is greater than the third second initial voltage;
[0098] When each driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the first second initial voltage is smaller than the third second initial voltage, and the second second initial voltage is smaller than the third second initial voltage.
[0099] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the first second initial voltage is the second initial voltage provided to the first sub-pixel, the second second initial voltage is the second initial voltage provided to the second sub-pixel, and the third second initial voltage is the second initial voltage provided to the third sub-pixel; the first sub-pixel can be a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel can be a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel can be a blue sub-pixel.
[0100] In a specific implementation, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the data voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is more negative. When resetting the potential of each second node through each eighth transistor, by setting the third second initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel to a smaller value, the gate-source voltage of the red sub-pixel, the gate-source voltage of the green sub-pixel, and the gate-source voltage of the blue sub-pixel are substantially the same when resetting the potential of each second node through each eighth transistor. This provides the driving transistors in each sub-pixel with a substantially identical bias state, thereby improving the display effect.
[0101] When the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the data voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel is corrected, and when the potential of each second node is reset through each eighth transistor, by setting the third second initial voltage corresponding to the blue sub-pixel to a larger value, it is possible to make the gate-source voltage of the red sub-pixel, the gate-source voltage of the green sub-pixel and the gate-source voltage of the blue sub-pixel be roughly the same when the potential of each second node is reset through each eighth transistor, and the driving transistors in each sub-pixel have a roughly the same bias state, thereby improving the display effect.
[0102] In a specific implementation, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the voltage value of the third second initial voltage can be set to be relatively small;
[0103] When the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the voltage value of the third second initial voltage can be set to be relatively large.
[0104] Optionally, the first second initial voltage is equal to the second second initial voltage; or,
[0105] When the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the first second initial voltage is less than the second second initial voltage; when the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the first second initial voltage is greater than the second second initial voltage.
[0106] In a specific implementation, since the pixel current of the red sub-pixel is greater than the pixel current of the green sub-pixel, when the driving transistor is a p-type transistor, the first second initial voltage can be set to be less than the second second initial voltage, and when the driving transistor is an n-type transistor, the first second initial voltage can be set to be greater than the second second initial voltage, so as to give the driving transistor in the red sub-pixel and the driving transistor in the green sub-pixel a roughly identical bias state, thereby improving the display effect.
[0107] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the pixel circuit further includes N third initial voltage terminals; the nth sub-pixel further includes an nth third initialization circuit;
[0108] The nth third initialization circuit is electrically connected to the third reset control terminal, the nth third initial voltage terminal and the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element, respectively, and is used to write the nth third initial voltage provided by the nth third initial voltage terminal into the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element under the control of a third reset control signal provided by the third reset control terminal.
[0109] In a specific implementation, the nth sub-pixel may further include an nth third initialization circuit, which, under the control of a third reset control signal, writes the nth third initial voltage provided by the nth third initial voltage terminal into the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element to clear the residual charge in the first electrode of the nth light-emitting element.
[0110] Optionally, the third initial voltages provided by the N third initial voltage terminals are the same, but not limited thereto; in actual operation, the third initial voltages provided by at least two third initial voltage terminals may be different from each other.
[0111] In actual operation, when the third initial voltages provided by the N third initial voltage terminals are the same, the number of initial voltage lines used to provide the third initial voltage can be reduced.
