[0003] With the development of the display industry, users have increasingly demanded higher display quality.

[0035] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples for realizing different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are merely examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present application can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent replacements should all be included in the scope of the present application.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1. An embodiment of the present application provides a display panel, which includes a gate driving module 100 and a signal selection circuit 210. The scanning signal output by the gate driving module 100 is used to control the pixels of the display panel to refresh. The gate driving module 100 includes a first gate driving unit 110 and a second gate driving unit 120. The first gate driving unit 110 and the second gate driving unit 120 control some pixel rows of the display panel to refresh. Different pixel rows controlled by the same gate driving unit can be adjacent and continuous pixel rows or pixel rows arranged at intervals. The number of pixel rows controlled by different gate driving units can be the same or different, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0037] The signal selection circuit 210 is electrically connected to the first gate driving unit 110 and the second gate driving unit 120 respectively, that is, the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 is input to the signal selection circuit 210, and the control signal output by the signal selection circuit 210 is output to the second gate driving unit 120.

[0038] The signal selection circuit 210 receives the inversion signal, the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and the low-level signal, and outputs the scanning signal or the low-level signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 as a control signal to the second gate driving unit 120 according to the inversion signal. If the control signal is the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will be refreshed. If the control signal is a low-level signal, the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will not be refreshed.

[0039] Since the inversion signal includes a high level and a low level, and the inversion signal alternates between adjacent frames, that is, when the inversion signal of the first frame is a high level, the inversion signal of the next frame of the first frame is switched to a low level, and the inversion signal of the next frame is switched to a high level again, and the cycle is repeated alternately.

[0040] The first gate driving unit 110 receives an initial trigger signal to start refreshing the screen. When the initial trigger signal is a trigger signal for the first frame of the screen, the control signal is a scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110. The pixel rows controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 and the second driving unit are refreshed and the data voltage corresponding to the first frame of the screen is written to realize the display of the first frame of the screen.

[0041] Based on the alternating changes of the above-mentioned inversion signal, when the initial trigger signal is the trigger signal of the next frame of the first frame, the control signal is a low-level signal, then the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 will be refreshed, and the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will not be refreshed. Therefore, the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 will be written with the data voltage corresponding to the second frame, and the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will still display the content displayed in the first frame.

[0042] In every two adjacent frames, the image of the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 will be refreshed twice, and the image of the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will only be refreshed once. The refresh rate of the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 is twice the refresh rate of the pixel row controlled by the second gate driving unit 120.

[0043] In this embodiment, the display panel is partitioned and controlled by adding a signal selection circuit 210. By controlling the partition display order, different refresh frequency controls can be achieved for different partitions, thereby achieving higher resolution and higher frequency display. Compared with the same resolution, the power consumption and transmission bandwidth requirements are reduced.

[0044] In one embodiment, the different pixel rows controlled by the same gate driving unit are adjacent and continuous pixel rows. As shown in FIG2 , the display panel includes a first display area A and a second display area B. The sizes of the first display area A and the second display area B can be the same or different, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. The first gate driving unit 110 controls the pixel rows in the first display area A to refresh, and the second gate driving unit 120 controls the pixel rows in the second display area B to refresh.

[0045] Through the control of the inversion signal in the signal selection circuit 210, when the initial trigger signal is the trigger signal of the first frame image, the control signal is the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and the first display area A and the second display area B refresh and display the first frame image.

[0046] When the initial trigger signal is the trigger signal of the next frame of the first frame, the control signal is a low-level signal, then the first display area A is refreshed to the corresponding image of the next frame of the first frame, and the second display area B still maintains the corresponding image of the first frame, that is, the refresh rate of the first display area A is twice the refresh rate of the second display area B.

[0047] The first gate driving unit 110 and the second gate driving unit 120 each include at least one gate driving circuit. The driving mode of the at least one gate driving circuit is any one of unilateral driving, bilateral driving, and cross-bilateral driving.

[0048] In one embodiment, if unilateral driving is used, a signal selection circuit 210 is provided between the first gate driving unit 110 and the second gate driving unit 120. If bilateral driving or cross-bilateral driving is used, the gate driving circuits of the first gate driving unit 110 and the second gate driving unit 120 are distributed on the left and right sides of the display panel. The signal selection circuit 210 includes a first side selection circuit and a second side selection circuit. The first side selection circuit is respectively connected to the gate driving circuit on the first side of the first gate driving unit 110 and the gate driving circuit on the first side of the second gate driving unit 120, and the second side selection circuit is respectively connected to the gate driving circuit on the second side of the first gate driving unit 110 and the gate driving circuit on the second side of the second gate driving unit 120.

[0049] The first-side selection circuit and the second-side selection circuit have the same structure and signal connections. They synchronously control the left and right gate drive circuits to achieve the same refresh mode for pixel rows controlled by the same gate drive unit. Furthermore, if a selection circuit with the same function as signal selection circuit 210 is added, then the same two circuits would need to be provided to synchronously control the left and right gate drive circuits for bilateral or cross-bilateral driving.

[0050] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG3 , the display panel further includes a first selection circuit 220 electrically connected to the first gate driving unit 110. The first selection circuit 220 receives an inversion signal, an initial trigger signal, and a low-level signal, and outputs the initial trigger signal or the low-level signal as a first control signal to the first gate driving unit 110 according to the inversion signal. If the first control signal is the initial trigger signal, the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 is refreshed; if the first control signal is a low-level signal, the pixel row controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 is not refreshed.

[0051] In addition, after the first selection circuit 220 is added, the signal connected to the signal selection circuit 210 needs to be adjusted. The signal selection circuit 210 receives the inversion signal, the first scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and the initial trigger signal, and outputs the first scanning signal or the initial trigger signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 as the second control signal to the second gate driving unit 120 based on the inversion signal. Regardless of whether the second control signal is the first scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 or a low-level signal, the pixel rows controlled by the second gate driving unit 120 will be refreshed. The difference is that when the pixel rows controlled by the first gate driving unit 110 are not refreshed, the second gate driving unit 120 needs to be triggered by the initial trigger signal.

[0052] Therefore, the first control signal of the first frame is the initial trigger signal, the second control signal is the first scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 , and the first display area A and the second display area B cooperate to display the first frame.

[0053] Due to the switching of the inversion signal, the first control signal is a low-level signal and the second control signal is an initial trigger signal. The first display area A is not refreshed and keeps displaying the corresponding image of the first frame. The second display area B refreshes and displays the corresponding image of the next frame of the first frame. The refresh rate of the second display area B is twice that of the first display area A, and the area with a faster refresh rate is adjusted relative to the above embodiment.

[0054] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG4 , the display panel further includes a second selection circuit 230 , and the gate driver module 100 further includes a third gate driver unit 130 . The third gate driver unit 130 is configured to control refresh of pixel rows in the third display area C. The second selection circuit 230 is electrically connected to the second gate driver unit 120 and the third gate driver unit 130 , respectively. The second selection circuit 230 receives an inversion signal, a low-level signal, and the second scan signal output by the second gate driver unit 120 , and outputs the low-level signal or the second scan signal output by the second gate driver unit 120 as a third control signal to the third gate driver unit 130 based on the inversion signal. When the third control signal is a low-level signal, the pixel rows controlled by the third gate driver unit 130 , i.e., the third display area C, are not refreshed. When the third control signal is the second scan signal output by the second gate driver unit 120 , the pixel rows controlled by the third gate driver unit 130 , i.e., the third display area C, are refreshed.

[0055] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG4 , in the first frame, the first control signal is an initial trigger signal, the second control signal is a first scanning signal output by the first gate drive unit 110, and the third control signal is a low-level signal. This means that the first display area A and the second display area B are refreshed to the corresponding image of the first frame, while the third display area C maintains the corresponding image of the previous frame. In the next frame after the first frame, the first control signal is a low-level signal, the second control signal is an initial trigger signal, and the third control signal is a second scanning signal output by the second gate drive unit 120. This means that the first display area A maintains the corresponding image of the first frame, while the second display area B and the third display area C are refreshed to the corresponding image of the next frame after the first frame. That is, in two adjacent frames, the image of the second display area B is refreshed twice, while the images of the first display area A and the third display area C are refreshed once.

[0056] It should be noted that when the first frame is the first frame, that is, the first frame does not have the previous frame, the third display area C remains in a dark state when the first frame is written. Since this embodiment is applied to a high-refresh display panel and the third display area C is only a partial display area of ​​the display panel, the human eye cannot perceive the dark state of the third display area C of the first frame.

[0057] In the first frame, the first control signal is the initial trigger signal, the second control signal is the first scanning signal output by the first gate drive unit 110, and the third control signal is the second scanning signal output by the second gate drive unit 120. This means that the first display area A, the second display area B, and the third display area C are all refreshed to the corresponding images of the first frame. In the frame following the first frame, when the first control signal is a low-level signal, the second control signal is the initial trigger signal, and the third control signal is a low-level signal, this means that the first display area A and the third display area C maintain the corresponding images of the first frame, while the second display area B is refreshed to the corresponding image of the frame following the first frame. In other words, in two adjacent frames, the image of the second display area B is refreshed twice, while the images of the first display area A and the third display area C are refreshed once.

[0058] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 5, the display panel also includes a third selection circuit 240, and the gate driving module 100 also includes a fourth gate driving unit 140. The fourth gate driving unit 140 is used to control the refresh of the pixel rows of the fourth display area D. The third selection circuit 240 is electrically connected to the first gate driving unit 110, the second gate driving unit 120, and the fourth gate driving unit 140, respectively.

[0059] The third selection circuit 240 receives the inversion signal, the scan signal output by the second gate driving unit 120, and the scan signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and outputs the scan signal output by the second gate driving unit 120 and the scan signal output by the first gate driving unit 110 as a fourth control signal to the fourth gate driving unit 140 according to the inversion signal.

[0060] When the initial trigger signal is the trigger signal of the first frame image, the control signal is the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and the fourth control signal is the scanning signal output by the second gate driving unit 120, that is, the first display area A, the second display area B and the fourth display area D are all refreshed to the corresponding images of the first frame image.

[0061] When the initial trigger signal is the trigger signal for the next frame after the first frame, the control signal is a low-level signal, and the fourth control signal is the scanning signal output by the first gate drive unit 110. This means that the first display area A and the fourth display area D are refreshed to the corresponding images of the next frame after the first frame, while the second display area B maintains the corresponding image of the first frame. In other words, in two adjacent frames, the images of the first display area A and the fourth display area D are refreshed twice, and the image of the second display area B is refreshed once.

[0062] In one embodiment, the signal selection circuit 210, the first selection circuit 220, the second selection circuit 230, and the third selection circuit 240 in the above-described embodiment can be configured as the same selection circuit. Each circuit uses an inversion signal as the output signal, and the inversion signal alternates between adjacent frames. Therefore, the output signal also alternates between the two input signals. The signal selection circuit 210, the first selection circuit 220, the second selection circuit 230, and the third selection circuit 240 differ only in the two input signals. This embodiment uses the signal selection circuit 210 as an example for description, and the other selection circuits are not further described.

[0063] As shown in Figure 6, the signal selection circuit 210 includes a first second control module 0211, a second second control module 0212 and an inverting module 213. The second second control module 0212 and the inverting module 213 are connected. The first second control module 0211 receives the scan signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, the second second control module 0212 receives the low-level signal, and the first second control module 0211 and the inverting module 213 are connected to the inversion signal.

[0064] The inversion signal switches alternately between adjacent frames. In the first frame, the inversion signal is high, and the signal selection circuit 210 outputs the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110. In the frame following the first frame, the inversion signal switches to a low level, and the signal selection circuit 210 outputs a low-level signal. In the next frame, the inversion signal switches to a high level, and the signal selection circuit 210 outputs the scanning signal output by the first gate driving unit 110, and this alternating cycle continues.

[0065] In one embodiment, the first-second control module 0211 includes a first switching transistor, the gate of which is connected to an inversion signal, one of the source and drain terminals of the first switching transistor is connected to a scan signal output by the first gate driver 110, and the other of the source and drain terminals of the first switching transistor is connected to the second gate driver 120. One terminal of an inversion module is connected to the inversion signal, and the other terminal of the inversion module is connected to the second-second control module 0212. The second-second control module 0212 includes a second switching transistor, the gate of which is connected to the other terminal of the inversion module, one of the source and drain terminals of the second switching transistor is connected to a low-level signal, and the other of the source and drain terminals of the second switching transistor is connected to the second gate driver 120.

[0066] When the inversion signal is high, the inversion module outputs a low level to the gate of the second switch transistor, the second switch transistor is turned off, and the first switch transistor is turned on. The control signal is the scan signal output by the first gate driving unit 110.

[0067] When the inversion signal is at a low level, the inversion module outputs a high level to the gate of the second switch transistor, the second switch transistor is turned on, the first switch transistor is turned off, and the control signal is a low level signal.

[0068] In this embodiment, a selection circuit is set to enable partition control of the display panel. By controlling the partition display order, different refresh frequency controls can be achieved for different partitions, achieving higher resolution and higher frequency display, and compared with the same resolution, power consumption and transmission bandwidth requirements are reduced.

[0069] As shown in FIG7 , with a 4N×M resolution and interlace drive, the existing driving scheme is that after the driving circuit GOA receives the trigger signal STV0, the signal is transmitted from the G_1 stage to the G4N stage in sequence, and the display area data is refreshed synchronously, and the display area A is not partitioned.

[0070] As shown in FIG8 , the present application provides a display panel that divides the drive circuit into the following sections: G_1 to GN are the first section (the first section is equivalent to the first gate drive unit), which controls display area A; G_N+1 to 2GN are the second section, which controls display area B; G_2N+1 to G3N are the third section (the second and third sections are equivalent to the second gate drive unit), which controls display area C; and G_3N+1 to G4N are the fourth section (the fourth section is equivalent to the third gate drive unit), which controls display area D. Furthermore, to achieve normal drive, a first control circuit 1, a second control circuit 2, and a third control circuit 3 are added. The first control circuit 1 is the first selection circuit in the above-mentioned embodiment, the second control circuit 2 is the signal selection circuit in the above-mentioned embodiment, and the third control circuit 3 is the second selection circuit in the above-mentioned embodiment. The first control circuit 1, the second control circuit 2, and the third control circuit 3 each include a first control module 01 and a second control module 02.
