This disclosure relates to the technical field of displays, and particularly to pixel circuits, driving methods, display substrates, display panels, and display devices.
Background Art
[0002] Related pixel circuits including micro - light - emitting diodes or mini - light - emitting diodes use a first data line and a second data line. Among them, the first data line is for supplying a light - emitting time data voltage, and the second data line is for supplying a display data voltage. Since the first data line and the second data line are provided between two columns of pixel circuits, the number of side signals is large. Moreover, due to the coupling effect in the charging compensation stage between the signal on the first data line and the signal on the second data line, the voltage jump caused by the display data voltage in the charging compensation stage will cause column - direction defects in the related pixel circuits.

The first control circuit 12 is electrically connected to the data line DT, the first reset control line RA, the first light emission control line E1, the first control node N1, and the second control node N2, respectively.

In this way, the number of GOA modules used is reduced, making it easier to achieve a narrow bezel, or The pulse widths of the scanning signal, the first reset control signal, and the second reset control signal may be different from each other, and the corresponding drive signals may be supplied to the scanning line, the first reset control line, and the second reset control line, respectively, by any one stage of GOA circuitry within different GOA modules, or The pulse width of the scanning signal, the pulse width of the first reset control signal, and the pulse width of the second reset control signal may be the same for two of them. Different stages of GOA circuits in the first GOA module may supply the corresponding drive signals to two of the scanning line, the first reset control line, and the second reset control line, while any one of the GOA circuits in the second GOA module may supply the corresponding drive signal to the remaining one of the scanning line, the first reset control line, and the second reset control line.

In the first writing stage S1, RA supplies a low voltage signal, RB supplies a high voltage signal, G1 supplies a high voltage signal, EM and Hf supply high voltage signals, DT supplies the first control voltage, and M1 is turned on, writing the first control voltage Data_T1 to the second control node N2.

As a result, the number of GOA circuits used is reduced, making it easier to achieve a narrow bezel.
[0087] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal supplied from RA, the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal supplied from RB, and the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1 are adjustable and do not have to match.

[0089] Figure 6 is an operation timing chart of at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown in Figure 4. Figure 6 differs from Figure 5 in that the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1 is longer, the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1 is greater than the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal supplied from RSTA, and the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1 is greater than the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal supplied from RSTB. Thus, the charge compensation time is increased, enabling sufficient threshold voltage compensation.
[0090] As shown in Figure 6, the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal is the same as the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal, and the low-level pulse width of the scan signal is greater than the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal.

[0092] As shown in Figure 7, during the operation of at least one embodiment of the pixel circuit shown in Figure 4 of this disclosure, the display cycle includes a first write stage S1, a second write stage S2, a charge compensation stage S3, and a light emission stage S4, which are set in order. In the first writing stage S1, RA supplies a high-voltage signal, RB supplies a low-voltage signal, G1 supplies a high-voltage signal, EM and Hf supply high-voltage signals, DT supplies the first control voltage Data_T1, M1 is turned off, M3 is turned on, DT supplies the first control voltage Data_T1 to the third control node N3, C2 maintains the potential of the third control node N3, when performing medium-to-high grayscale display, the first control voltage Data_T1 is a high-voltage signal, when performing low-grayscale display, the first control voltage Data_T1 is a low-voltage signal, M4 is turned on, and conduction occurs between the first control node N1 and Hf. In the second writing stage S2, RA supplies a low voltage signal, RB supplies a high voltage signal, G1 supplies a high voltage signal, EM and Hf supply high voltage signals, DT supplies the second control voltage Data_T2, M1 turns on, M3 turns off, DT supplies the second control voltage Data_T2 to the second control node N2, C1 maintains the potential of the second control node N2, and when performing medium-to-high grayscale display, the second control voltage Data_T2 is a low voltage signal, M2 turns on, conduction occurs between the first control node N1 and E1, and when performing low grayscale display, the second control voltage Data_T2 is a high voltage signal. In charge compensation stage S3, RA supplies a high voltage signal, RB supplies a high voltage signal, G1 supplies a low voltage signal, EM and Hf supply high voltage signals, DT supplies the display data voltage Data_I, M6 and M7 are turned on, the display data voltage Data_I is written to the source of M0, and conduction is established between the gate and drain of M3. At the start of charge compensation stage S3, M0 is turned on, and C3 is charged via the turned-on M0 and M7 by the displayed data voltage Data_I until M0 is turned off. At this time, the gate potential of M0 becomes Data_I + Vth, where Vth is the threshold voltage of M0. During the light emission stage S4, EM supplies a low voltage signal, and for a portion of the period included in the light emission stage S4, Hf supplies a low voltage signal. When performing medium-to-high gradation display, N1 and EM are electrically connected, and in the light emission stage S4, M3 drives ML to emit light. When low-gradation display is performed, N1 and Hf are connected, and when Hf outputs a low-voltage signal, M3 drives ML to emit light.
[0093] In Figure 7, the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1 is greater than the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal, and is also greater than the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal. As a result, the duration of the charge compensation phase is longer, allowing for sufficient compensation for the threshold voltage of the drive transistor. In actual operation, the low-level pulse width of the scan signal supplied from G1, the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal, and the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal may be equal.
[0094] In at least one embodiment of this design, the low-level pulse width of the scanning signal, the low-level pulse width of the first reset control signal, and the low-level pulse width of the second reset control signal may be equal.

Because each data line has parasitic capacitance, each light emission time control data voltage charges the parasitic capacitance of each data line. During the sixth data writing period t32, G1 supplies a low-voltage signal, causing M6 and M7 in the pixel circuit to turn on, thereby performing charging and threshold voltage compensation, and enabling the writing of the display data voltage. In the light emission stage FT, E1 supplies a low voltage signal and M5 is turned on, controlling the connection between the power supply voltage line VDD and the source of the drive transistor M0. When performing medium-to-high gradation display, the M2 in the pixel circuit is turned on, which controls the connection between the first light emission control line E1 and the first control node N1 to conduct electricity. When low-gradation display is performed, the M4 in the pixel circuit is turned on, which controls the connection between the second light emission control line Hf and the first control node N1 to conduct electricity.
[0170] In the operation of the display panel described in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, during the second data writing period, the system may be controlled to supply a high-voltage signal from RA and a low-voltage signal from RB, and during the fourth data writing period, the system may be controlled to supply a low-voltage signal from RA and a high-voltage signal from RB.
[0171] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the on-time of each multiplexing control terminal is reduced, and the storage of the emission time control data voltage on the data line can be completed quickly, thereby increasing the on-time of RA, RB and G1, and providing more sufficient time for writing, charging and threshold voltage compensation of the data voltage inside the pixel circuit.
[0172] In at least one embodiment of this disclosure, timing control by GOA (Gate On Array) ensures that all low-level stages of the second light emission control line Hf are in the light emission stage. This avoids coupling effects on the writing of the display data voltage and disturbances in the gate voltage of the drive transistor, which would otherwise occur due to the lowering of the potential of the second light emission control signal by high frequency. As a result, one transistor is reduced compared to the associated pixel circuit to prevent coupling effects of Hf.
[0173] During actual implementation, the presence of parasitic capacitance on the data lines can cause the data lines to couple with each other, influencing each other and potentially altering the voltage.
[0174] As shown in Figure 23, when performing medium-to-high grayscale display, if it is within the second data writing period, RB supplies a low-voltage signal and RA supplies a high-voltage signal, and if it is within the fourth data writing stage, RA supplies a low-voltage signal and RB supplies a high-voltage signal. During the first data writing period t11, the data voltage Vdata applied to DL1 may be 18V. During the third data writing period t21, the data voltage Vdata applied to DL1 may be 0V. During the fifth data writing period t31, the data voltage Vdata applied to DL1 may be 13V. When MX1 is turned on, a data voltage is written to DL1, and DL1 is maintained at the potential of the time immediately before MX1 is turned off. For example, the ideal voltage of DL1 in Figure 23 is VDL10. The 18V voltage signal and the 0V voltage signal are signals that control the switching on of the first and second light emission control lines, respectively, and have little effect on grayscale display. However, when the voltage jumps from 0V to 13V, it is the time when G1 is turned on, and the voltage on DL1 jumps in accordance with the voltage on DL4, affecting the writing of the data voltage. As a result, the written voltage becomes a relatively high potential, and the display of pixels electrically connected to DL1 becomes darker than expected.
[0175] In FIG. 23, VDL40 is the ideal voltage on DL4, and VDL1 is the actual voltage on DL1.
[0176] As shown in FIG. 24, when performing medium and high tone display, if it is within the second data writing period t12, RA supplies a low voltage signal and RB supplies a high voltage signal. If it is within the fourth data writing period t22, RB supplies a low voltage signal and RA supplies a high voltage signal. In the first data writing period t11, the data voltage Vdata input to DL1 may be 0V. In the third data writing period t21, the data voltage Vdata input to DL1 may be 18V. In the fifth data writing period t31, the data voltage Vdata input to DL1 may be 13V. By setting as described above, at the on-time of G1, the data voltage on DL1 jumps from 18V to 13V, the jump width of the data voltage is reduced, and the problem of variations in pixel display is improved.
[0177] As shown in FIG. 25, during the operation of at least one embodiment of the display panel shown in FIG. 21 of the present disclosure, the display period includes a first writing period, a second writing period, a third writing period, and a light emission stage FT set successively. The first writing period includes a first data writing period t11 and a second data writing period t12. The first data writing period is included in the second data writing period t12. The second writing period includes a third data writing period t21 and a fourth data writing period t22. The third data writing period t21 is included in the fourth data writing period t22. The third writing period includes a fifth data writing period t31 and a sixth data writing period t32 set successively. [[ID="]] During the first data writing period t11, MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 sequentially output low-voltage signals, and the transistors controlled by MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 are sequentially turned on, thereby writing the corresponding light emission time control data voltage. During the second data writing period t12, RA supplies a low-voltage signal, RB and G1 supply high-voltage signals, and the first transistor M1 in the pixel circuit turns on, writing the light emission time control data voltage on each data line to the second control node N2. During the third data writing period t21, MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 sequentially output low-voltage signals, and the transistors controlled by MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 are sequentially turned on, thereby writing the corresponding light emission time control data voltage. During the fourth data writing period t22, RB supplies a low-voltage signal, RA and G1 supply high-voltage signals, and M3 in the pixel circuit turns on, writing the emission time control data voltage on each data line to the third control node N3. During the fifth data writing period t31, MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 sequentially output low-voltage signals, and the transistors controlled by MX1, MX2, MX3, MX4, MX5, and MX6 are sequentially turned on, thereby writing the corresponding display data voltage. During the sixth data writing period t32, G1 supplies a low-voltage signal, RA and RB supply high-voltage signals, and M6 and M7 in the pixel circuit are turned on, thereby performing charging and threshold voltage compensation, and enabling the writing of the display data voltage. During the light emission stage FT, the EM outputs a low-voltage signal. During a certain period included in the emission stage FT, Hf outputs a low-voltage signal. When performing medium-to-high gradation display, in the light emission stage FT, the micro light-emitting diode ML is driven to emit light by the drive transistor M0 in the pixel circuit. When performing low-gradation display, in the light emission stage FT, when Hf supplies a low-voltage signal, the drive transistor M0 in the pixel circuit drives the micro light-emitting diode ML to emit light.
[0178] In Figure 25, the symbol E1_N represents the next line of light emission control lines adjacent to E1.
[0179] In related technologies, low-gradation display is typically achieved by using current + time control to emit light for a short period of time with a constant current. However, within the display time of one frame, after emitting light for a short time, the LED (light-emitting diode) transitions to a black state, causing the human eye to clearly perceive flicker, which can be unpleasant for viewers. Based on this, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a pixel circuit that reduces flicker by controlling the emission time length with a high frequency, thereby distributing short emission time lengths within one frame time.
[0180] In at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, since the light emission control signal supplied from E1 remains a low-voltage signal for a relatively long time, the light emission control signal supplied from Hf becomes a high-frequency pulse signal for the entire duration that it remains a low-voltage signal from E1.
