For example, the fifth transistor T5, the eighth transistor T8, and the ninth transistor T9 can be connected to the same control signal terminal (the first control signal terminal AZ[N]).

[0120] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the conduction level of at least one of the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, and the third reset circuit 53 has the same polarity as the conduction level of the threshold compensation circuit 4. Furthermore, in the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, and the third reset circuit 53, the circuit with the same polarity as the conduction level of the threshold compensation circuit 4 is connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit, respectively, along with the control terminal of the threshold compensation circuit 4. For example, the gate of the second transistor T2 can be connected to the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1].

[0121] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the conduction level of at least one of the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, the third reset circuit 53, and the threshold compensation circuit 4 has the same polarity as the conduction level of the first reset circuit 51. Furthermore, among the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, the third reset circuit 53, and the threshold compensation circuit 4, the circuit with the same polarity as the conduction level of the first reset circuit 51 is connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit, respectively, along with the control terminal of the first reset circuit 51. For example, the gate of the first transistor T1 can be connected to the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2].

[0122] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the second reset circuit 52 and the data writing circuit 2 have the same conduction level polarity, and their control terminals are connected to the same control signal terminal. For example, the gate of the fourth transistor T4 can be connected to the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N], and the gate of the seventh transistor T7 can be connected to the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N].

[0123] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2As shown, the first control signal terminal AZ[N], the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2], and the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1] can be connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit. For example, the first control signal terminal AZ[N] can be connected to the nth stage shift register unit in the gate drive circuit, the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2] can be connected to the (n-2)th stage shift register unit in the gate drive circuit, and the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1] can be connected to the (n+1)th stage shift register unit in the gate drive circuit.

[0124] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 The diagram shows the timing diagrams of each node in a driving method of the pixel driving circuit shown. Specifically, EM1 is the timing diagram of the signal at the first enable signal terminal, AZ[N] is the timing diagram of the signal at the first control signal terminal, AZ[N-2] is the timing diagram of the signal at the second control signal terminal, AZ[N+1] is the timing diagram of the signal at the third control signal terminal, PG[N] is the timing diagram of the signal at the first gate drive signal terminal, Data is the timing diagram of the signal at the data signal terminal, N1 is the timing diagram of the signal at the first node, N3 is the timing diagram of the signal at the third node, N4 is the timing diagram of the signal at the fourth node, N5 is the timing diagram of the signal at the fifth node, and Vanode is the timing diagram of the signal at the first electrode of the light-emitting unit L.

[0125] The driving method of the pixel driving circuit may include: a pre-reset stage t1, a reset stage t2, a threshold compensation stage t3, a data writing stage t4, and a light emission stage t5.

[0126] During the pre-reset phase t1: the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2] outputs a low level, the first transistor T1 is turned on, and the first initial signal terminal Vinit1 inputs an initial signal to the fifth node N5.

[0127] During the reset phase t2: the first control signal terminal AZ[N] and the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2] output low level, the first transistor T1, the fifth transistor T5, the eighth transistor T8, and the ninth transistor T9 are turned on, the first initial signal terminal Vinit1 inputs the initial signal to the fifth node N5, the first node N1, and the sixth node N6, and the reference voltage terminal Vref inputs the reference voltage Vf to the fourth node N4.

[0128] During the threshold compensation stage t3: the first control signal terminal AZ[N] and the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1] output low level, the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2] outputs high level, the first transistor T1 is turned off, and the second transistor T2, the fifth transistor T5, the eighth transistor T8, and the ninth transistor T9 are turned on. The reference voltage terminal Vref continuously inputs the reference voltage Vf to the fourth node N4. At the same time, the first power supply terminal VDD1 inputs the compensation voltage Vdd+Vth to the first node N1, where Vdd is the voltage of the first power supply terminal VDD1 and Vth is the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T3.

[0129] During the data writing phase t4: the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N] outputs a low level, the first control signal terminal AZ[N] outputs a high level, the fifth transistor T5, the eighth transistor T8, and the ninth transistor T9 are turned off, the fourth transistor T4 is turned on, the data signal terminal Data inputs a data signal to the fourth node N4, the voltage of the fourth node N4 changes from Vf to Vdata, Vdata is the voltage of the data signal, the first capacitor C1 couples the voltage change of the fourth node N4 to the first node N1, the voltage of the first node N1 changes from Vdd+Vth to Vdd+Vth+Vdata-Vf. At the same time, the seventh transistor T7 is turned on, and the second initial signal terminal Vinit2 provides a reset signal to the first electrode of the light-emitting unit L.

[0130] During the light-emitting stage t5: the first enable signal terminal EM1 outputs a low-level signal, the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, and the driving transistor T3 drives the light-emitting unit to emit light under the action of the voltage Vdd+Vth+Vdata-Vf stored in the first capacitor C1.

[0131] The formula for the output current of the driving transistor is as follows:

[0132] I = (μWCox / 2L)(Vgs-Vth) 2

[0133] Where I is the output current of the driving transistor; μ is the carrier mobility; Cox is the gate capacitance per unit area; W is the width of the driving transistor channel; L is the length of the driving transistor channel; and Vgs is the gate-source voltage difference of the driving transistor. In the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure, the output current of the driving transistor I = (μWCox / 2L)(Vdd + Vth + Vdata - Vf - Vdd - Vth) 2 This pixel driving circuit avoids the influence of the driving transistor threshold on its output current. Furthermore, the threshold compensation stage is separated from the data writing stage, and the threshold compensation stage can span multiple scan times, enabling high-frequency refresh.

[0134] like Figure 4 As shown, Figure 2 The timing diagrams for each node in another driving method of the pixel driving circuit shown are as follows: EM1 is the timing diagram for the signal at the first enable signal terminal; AZ[N] is the timing diagram for the signal at the first control signal terminal; AZ[N-2] is the timing diagram for the signal at the second control signal terminal; AZ[N+1] is the timing diagram for the signal at the third control signal terminal; PG[N] is the timing diagram for the signal at the first gate drive signal terminal; Data is the timing diagram for the signal at the data signal terminal; N1 is the timing diagram for the signal at the first node; N3 is the timing diagram for the signal at the third node; N4 is the timing diagram for the signal at the fourth node; N5 is the timing diagram for the signal at the fifth node; and Vanode is the timing diagram for the signal at the first electrode of the light-emitting unit L.

[0135] Figure 4 The driving method shown and Figure 3 The driving method shown is different in that, Figure 4 In the pre-reset phase t1 of the driving method shown, the first enable signal terminal EM1 outputs a low level. This setting can increase the light emission duration of the light-emitting unit, thereby improving the screen flickering problem.

[0136] like Figure 2 As shown in this exemplary embodiment, the first terminal of the seventh transistor T7 is connected to the second initial signal terminal Vinit2. It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, the first terminal of the seventh transistor T7 may be shared with the first transistor and connected to the first initial signal terminal Vinit1.

[0137] like Figure 2As shown in this exemplary embodiment, the gate of the seventh transistor T7 is connected to the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N]. It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, the conduction level of at least one of the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, the third reset circuit 53, the threshold compensation circuit 4, and the first reset circuit 51 has the same polarity as the conduction level of the second reset circuit 52. Furthermore, among the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, the third reset circuit 53, the threshold compensation circuit 4, and the first reset circuit 51, the circuit with the same polarity as the conduction level of the second reset circuit 52 is connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit, respectively, along with the control terminal of the second reset circuit 52. For example, the gate of the seventh transistor T7 can also be connected to the fourth control signal terminal AZ[Nx]. The fourth control signal terminal AZ[Nx] can be connected to the same shift register unit or different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit as the first control signal terminal AZ[N], the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2], and the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1]. For example, the fourth control signal terminal AZ[Nx] can be connected to the nx-th shift register unit, where x is an integer between -1 and 2. The value range of x is controlled by the pulse width of the effective pulse signal on the fourth control signal terminal, the shift length of the adjacent shift signal output by the gate drive circuit connected to the fourth control signal terminal, and the duration of the effective level output by the first enable signal terminal. When the driving timing of the pixel drive circuit changes, the value range of x will also change.

[0138] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 2As shown, the gate of the first transistor T1 is connected to the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2]. It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, when the conduction level polarities of the data writing circuit 2 and the first reset circuit 51 are the same, the control terminals of the data writing circuit 2 and the first reset circuit 51 can be connected to different shift register units in the same gate driving circuit. For example, the gate of the first transistor T1 can also be connected to the second gate driving signal terminal PG[Ny]. The second gate driving signal terminal PG[Ny] and the first gate driving signal terminal PG[N] can be connected to different shift register units in the same gate driving circuit. For example, the first gate driving signal terminal PG[N] can be connected to the nth stage shift register unit in the same gate driving circuit, and the second gate driving signal terminal PG[Ny] can be connected to the nyth stage shift register unit in the same gate driving circuit. In the same scan cycle, the second gate driving signal terminal PG[Ny] needs to turn on the first transistor T1 before the fourth transistor T4 turns on. Therefore, y is an integer greater than or equal to 1. For example, y can be equal to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. The value range of y is controlled by the pulse width of the effective pulse signal on the second gate drive signal terminal and the shift length of the adjacent shift signal output by the gate drive circuit connected to the second gate drive signal terminal. When the driving timing of the pixel drive circuit changes, the value range of y will also change.

[0139] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 2 The pixel driving circuit shown is Figure 5 The pixel driving circuit shown is equipped with a second light-emitting control circuit 62. The second light-emitting control circuit 62 is connected to the second node N2, the first power supply terminal VDD1, and the second enable signal terminal EM2. The second light-emitting control circuit 62 is used to respond to the signal of the second enable signal terminal EM2 to connect the second node N2 and the first power supply terminal VDD1.

[0140] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the second light-emitting control circuit 62 may include a twelfth transistor T12, the first terminal of which is connected to the first power supply terminal VDD1, the second terminal of which is connected to the second node N2, and the gate of which is connected to the second enable signal terminal EM2. The twelfth transistor T12 may be a P-type transistor, for example, a P-type polysilicon transistor.

[0141] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 5As shown, the second enable signal terminal EM2 can turn on the second light emission control circuit 62 during the threshold compensation stage and the light emission stage, thereby enabling normal scanning and light emission of the pixel driving circuit. Furthermore, the second enable signal terminal EM2 can turn off the second light emission control circuit 62 during one or more stages, including the pre-reset stage, the reset circuit, and the data writing stage. On the one hand, this setting can reduce the voltage impact of the first power supply terminal VDD1 on the first node N1; on the other hand, this setting can reduce the duration of the bias state of the driving transistor T3, thereby reducing the aging speed of the driving transistor T3.

[0142] It should be understood that, in other exemplary embodiments, the gate of the twelfth transistor T12 may also be connected to the first enable signal terminal EM1. The first enable signal terminal EM1 needs to turn on the second light-emitting control circuit 62 during the threshold compensation stage. Correspondingly, the first enable signal terminal EM1 will also turn on the sixth transistor T6. This setting may cause the light-emitting unit to be abnormally lit.

[0143] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 6 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 2 The pixel driving circuit shown is Figure 6 The pixel driving circuit shown includes a fourth reset circuit 54. This fourth reset circuit 54 is connected to the third node N3, the third initial signal terminal Vinit3, and the first reset signal terminal ResetH. The fourth reset circuit 54 is used to transmit the signal from the third initial signal terminal Vinit3 to the third node N3 in response to the signal from the first reset signal terminal ResetH. On one hand, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the third node N3 before the threshold compensation stage to improve the display panel afterimage and flicker problems caused by the hysteresis effect of the driving transistor T3. For example, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the third node N3 during the pre-reset stage or the reset stage. On the other hand, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the third node N3 after the threshold compensation stage and before the light emission stage, so that the voltage of the third node N3 before the light emission stage is consistent in both the scan frame and the hold frame. This setting allows the brightness of the light-emitting units to be more similar in the scan frame and the hold frame. It should be noted that... Figure 5 The pixel driving circuit shown can also be equipped with a fourth reset circuit 54, which is connected to the third node.

[0144] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 6As shown, the fourth reset circuit 54 may include: a tenth transistor T10, the first terminal of the tenth transistor T10 being connected to the third initial signal terminal Vinit3, the second terminal being connected to the third node N3, and the gate being connected to the first reset signal terminal ResetH. The tenth transistor T10 may be a P-type transistor, for example, the tenth transistor T10 may be a P-type polysilicon transistor.

[0145] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 7 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 5 The pixel driving circuit shown is Figure 7 The pixel driving circuit shown includes a fourth reset circuit 54. This fourth reset circuit 54 is connected to the second node N2, the third initial signal terminal Vinit3, and the first reset signal terminal ResetH. The fourth reset circuit 54 responds to the signal from the first reset signal terminal ResetH to transmit the signal from the third initial signal terminal Vinit3 to the second node N2. Similarly, on one hand, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the second node N2 before the threshold compensation stage to improve the display panel afterimage and flickering problems caused by the hysteresis effect of the driving transistor T3. For example, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the second node N2 during the pre-reset stage or the reset stage. On the other hand, the fourth reset circuit 54 can provide an initial signal to the second node N2 after the threshold compensation stage and before the light emission stage, so that the voltage of the second node N2 before the light emission stage is consistent in both the scan frame and the hold frame. This setting allows the brightness of the light-emitting unit to be more similar in the scan frame and the hold frame. It should be noted that when the first reset signal terminal ResetH is activated by the fourth reset circuit 54, the second light emission control circuit needs to turn off the first power supply terminal VDD1 and the second node.

[0146] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 7 As shown, the fourth reset circuit 54 may include: a tenth transistor T10, the first terminal of the tenth transistor T10 being connected to the third initial signal terminal Vinit3, the second terminal being connected to the second node N2, and the gate being connected to the first reset signal terminal ResetH. The tenth transistor T10 may be a P-type transistor, for example, the tenth transistor T10 may be a P-type polysilicon transistor.

[0147] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 8 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 2 The pixel driving circuit shown is Figure 8In the pixel driving circuit shown, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, and the eighth transistor T8 can be N-type transistors. For example, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, and the eighth transistor T8 can be N-type oxide transistors (optionally indium gallium zinc oxide transistors). N-type oxide transistors have smaller leakage current, which can reduce the leakage current of the first node N1 and the fourth node N4.

[0148] In this exemplary embodiment, when at least some circuits in the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, and the third reset circuit 53 have opposite conduction level polarities, and the control terminals of the circuits with opposite conduction level polarities in the first isolation circuit 31, the second isolation circuit 32, and the third reset circuit 53 are respectively connected to different control signal terminals, and the different control signal terminals are used to provide control signals with opposite polarities respectively. For example, such as Figure 8 As shown, the gates of the fifth transistor T5 and the eighth transistor T8 can be connected to the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N]. The signal on the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N] can have opposite polarities to the signal on the first control signal terminal AZ[N].

[0149] In this exemplary embodiment, the gate of the fourth transistor T4 can be connected to the fourth gate drive signal terminal PGF[N], and the signal on the fourth gate drive signal terminal PGF[N] and the signal on the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N] can have opposite polarities.

[0150] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 9 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 8 The pixel driving circuit shown is in Figure 9 In the pixel driving circuit shown, the ninth transistor T9 can be an N-type transistor, for example, an N-type oxide transistor (optionally an indium gallium zinc oxide transistor). N-type oxide transistors have lower leakage current, which further reduces the leakage current of the first node N1. Figure 9 As shown, the gate of the ninth transistor T9 can be connected to the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N].

[0151] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 10 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Compared to... Figure 9 The pixel driving circuit shown is in Figure 10 In the pixel driving circuit shown, all transistors except driving transistor T3 and the sixth transistor T6 are N-type transistors. For example, the transistors except driving transistor T3 and the sixth transistor T6 can be N-type oxide transistors (optionally indium gallium zinc oxide transistors).

[0153] In this exemplary embodiment, the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N], the fifth gate drive signal terminal NG[N+1], and the sixth gate drive signal terminal NG[N-2] can be connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit. The driving method of this pixel drive circuit is similar to... Figure 2 The driving method of the pixel driving circuit shown can be the same. Correspondingly, the signal polarity of the third gate driving signal terminal NG[N] is opposite to that of the first control signal terminal AZ[N], the signal polarity of the fifth gate driving signal terminal NG[N+1] is opposite to that of the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1], and the signal polarity of the sixth gate driving signal terminal NG[N-2] is opposite to that of the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2].

[0154] It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the gate of the first transistor T1 can also be connected to the seventh gate drive signal terminal PGF[Ny]. The seventh gate drive signal terminal PGF[Ny] and the fourth gate drive signal terminal PGF[N] are connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit. The gate of the seventh transistor T7 can also be connected to the eighth gate drive signal terminal NG[Nx]. The eighth gate drive signal terminal NG[Nx] and the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N] are connected to different shift register units or the same shift register unit in the same gate drive circuit. Furthermore, in other exemplary embodiments, the sixth transistor T6 can also be an N-type transistor. For example, the sixth transistor T6 can be an N-type oxide transistor, specifically, the sixth transistor T6 can be an N-type indium gallium zinc oxide transistor.

[0155] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 11 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Figure 2 Compared to the pixel driving circuit shown, Figure 11 The pixel driving circuit shown is further equipped with a third isolation circuit 33, which connects the fourth node N4 and the seventh node N7. The third isolation circuit 33 is used to respond to signals from its control terminal to connect the fourth node N4 and the seventh node N7. Furthermore, with... Figure 2 Compared to the pixel driving circuit shown, Figure 11The pixel driving circuit shown sets the eighth transistor T8 as an N-type transistor. For example, the eighth transistor T8 can be an N-type oxide transistor (optionally an indium gallium zinc oxide transistor). N-type oxide transistors have a smaller turn-off leakage current, which can reduce the leakage current of the first node N1.

[0156] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 11 As shown, the third isolation circuit 33 includes an eleventh transistor T11. The first terminal of the eleventh transistor T11 is connected to the seventh node N7, the second terminal is connected to the fourth node N4, and the gate forms the control terminal of the third isolation circuit 33. The eleventh transistor T11 can be an N-type transistor, for example, an N-type oxide transistor (optionally an indium gallium zinc oxide transistor). N-type oxide transistors have a smaller turn-off leakage current. This configuration can reduce the leakage current of the fourth node, thereby improving the stability of the voltage of the first node N1.

[0157] In this exemplary embodiment, the control terminal of the third isolation circuit 33 and the control terminal of the first isolation circuit can be shared and connected to the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N].

[0158] It should be noted that, Figures 5-10 The pixel driving circuit shown can also be equipped with a third isolation circuit 33.

[0159] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 12 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Figure 11 The pixel driving circuit shown is different, Figure 12 The pixel driving circuit shown sets the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the seventh transistor T7, and the ninth transistor T9 as N-type transistors. For example, the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the seventh transistor T7, and the ninth transistor T9 can be N-type oxide transistors (optionally indium gallium zinc oxide transistors).

[0160] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 12 As shown, the gate of the ninth transistor T9 is connected to the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N], the gate of the second transistor T2 is connected to the fifth gate drive signal terminal NG[N+1], and the gate of the first transistor T1 is connected to the sixth gate drive signal terminal NG[N-2].

[0161] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 12As shown, when the conduction levels of the second reset circuit 52 and the data writing circuit 2 are opposite in polarity, the control terminals of the second reset circuit 52 and the data writing circuit 2 are connected to different control signal terminals, which are used to output signals with opposite polarities. For example, the gate of the seventh transistor T7 is connected to the fourth gate drive signal terminal PGF[N], and the fourth gate drive signal terminal PGF[N] and the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N] are used to output signals with opposite polarities.

[0162] In this exemplary embodiment, the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N], the fifth gate drive signal terminal NG[N+1], and the sixth gate drive signal terminal NG[N-2] can be connected to different shift register units in the same gate drive circuit. The driving method of this pixel drive circuit is similar to... Figure 2 The driving method of the pixel driving circuit shown can be the same. Correspondingly, the signal polarity of the third gate driving signal terminal NG[N] is opposite to that of the first control signal terminal AZ[N], the signal polarity of the fifth gate driving signal terminal NG[N+1] is opposite to that of the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1], and the signal polarity of the sixth gate driving signal terminal NG[N-2] is opposite to that of the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2].

[0163] It should be understood that in other exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 12 As shown, the gate of the seventh transistor T7 can also be connected to the eighth gate drive signal terminal NG[Nx]. The eighth gate drive signal terminal NG[Nx] and the third gate drive signal terminal NG[N] are connected to different shift register units or the same shift register unit in the same gate drive circuit.

[0164] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figure 13 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of another exemplary embodiment of the pixel driving circuit of this disclosure. Figure 11 The pixel driving circuit shown is different, Figure 13 The pixel driving circuit shown adds a fourth reset circuit 54 to the third node N3. It should be understood that, in other exemplary embodiments, the fourth reset circuit 54 can also be connected between the second electrode of the first capacitor C1 and the fourth node N4. The fourth reset circuit 54 can respond to a signal at its control terminal to connect the second electrode of the first capacitor C1 and the fourth node N4. During the light-emitting phase, the fourth reset circuit 54 is turned off; this setting can prevent the voltage change of the fourth node N4 from having a coupling effect on the first node N1.

[0165] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figures 8-13As shown, at least one N-type oxide transistor is included between the fourth node N4 and the data signal terminal Data, at least one N-type oxide transistor is included between the fourth node N4 and the reference voltage terminal, at least one N-type oxide transistor is included between the first node N1 and the first initial signal terminal Vinit1, and at least one N-type oxide transistor is included between the first node N1 and the third node N3. This arrangement can reduce the leakage current of the first node N1 and the fourth node N4.

[0166] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figures 2-13 As shown, the eighth transistor T8, the ninth transistor T9, and the second transistor T2 can all be single-gate transistors, meaning that the eighth transistor T8, the ninth transistor T9, and the second transistor T2 each have only one channel region. This setting facilitates the corresponding layout design and enables high PPI display effects.

[0167] In this exemplary embodiment, as Figures 1-13 As shown, the second electrode of the second capacitor C2 can also be connected to other constant voltage signal terminals, such as the reference voltage terminal Vref, the second power supply terminal VDD2, etc.

The first gate drive circuit GOA1 provides a gate drive signal to the first enable signal terminal through a gate line extending along the row direction. Different shift register units in the second gate drive circuit GOA2 provide gate drive signals to the first control signal terminal AZ[N], the second control signal terminal AZ[N-2], and the third control signal terminal AZ[N+1] through different gate lines extending along the row direction. The third gate drive circuit GOA3 provides a gate drive signal to the first gate drive signal terminal PG[N] through a gate line extending along the row direction.

The second gate driving circuit GOA2 can adopt a 6CLK architecture, and the output of the shift register unit AZ can be connected to two rows of pixel driving circuits Pix. Furthermore, the output of the nth-stage shift register unit AZ is connected to the input of the (n+3)th-stage shift register unit AZ, where n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
