[0140] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments can be implemented in a number of different forms. A person of ordinary skill in the art can easily understand the fact that the methods and contents can be transformed into various forms without departing from the purpose and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure should not be interpreted as being limited to the contents described in the following embodiments. Unless there is a conflict, the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be arbitrarily combined with each other. In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, the present disclosure omits detailed descriptions of some known functions and known components. The drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure only relate to the structures involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and other structures can refer to the general design.
[0141] The scales of the figures in this disclosure can be used as a reference for actual processes, but are not limited to such. For example, the width-to-length ratio of the channel, the thickness and spacing of the various film layers, and the width and spacing of the various signal lines can be adjusted according to actual needs. The number of pixels in the display device and the number of sub-pixels in each pixel are not limited to the numbers shown in the figures. The figures described in this disclosure are merely schematic structural diagrams, and one embodiment of this disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values shown in the figures.
[0142] In this specification, ordinal numbers such as “first”, “second” and “third” are provided to avoid confusion among constituent elements, and are not intended to limit the number.
[0143] In this specification, for convenience, words and phrases indicating orientation or positional relationships, such as "middle," "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inside," and "outside," are used to illustrate the positional relationships of components with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is merely to facilitate the description of this specification and simplify the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present disclosure. The positional relationships of the components may be appropriately changed depending on the direction in which each component is described. Therefore, the present disclosure is not limited to the words and phrases described in the specification and may be appropriately replaced as appropriate.
[0144] In this specification, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through intermediaries, or internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this disclosure.
[0145] In this specification, a transistor refers to a device that includes at least three terminals: a gate electrode, a drain electrode, and a source electrode. A transistor has a channel region between a drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain electrode) and a source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source electrode), and current can flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. Note that in this specification, the channel region refers to the region through which current primarily flows.
[0146] In this specification, in order to distinguish the two electrodes of a transistor other than the gate electrode, one of the electrodes is directly described as the first electrode and the other as the second electrode. The first electrode can be the drain electrode and the second electrode can be the source electrode, or the first electrode can be the source electrode and the second electrode can be the drain electrode. In cases where transistors with opposite polarity are used or where the direction of current changes during circuit operation, the functions of the "source electrode" and "drain electrode" are sometimes interchangeable. Therefore, in this specification, the terms "source electrode" and "drain electrode" can be interchanged.
[0147] In this specification, "electrically connected" includes components connected together via an element having some electrical function. There are no particular limitations on the "element having some electrical function" as long as it enables the transfer of electrical signals between the connected components. Examples of "element having some electrical function" include not only electrodes and wiring, but also switching elements such as transistors, resistors, inductors, capacitors, and other components with various functions.
[0148] In this specification, "parallel" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than -10° and less than 10°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than -5° and less than 5°. Furthermore, "perpendicular" refers to a state where the angle formed by two straight lines is greater than 80° and less than 100°, and thus also includes a state where the angle is greater than 85° and less than 95°.
[0149] In this specification, the terms "film" and "layer" may be interchanged. For example, "conductive layer" may be replaced with "conductive film." Similarly, "insulating film" may be replaced with "insulating layer."
[0150] In this specification, the term "same-layer arrangement" refers to a structure formed by patterning two (or more) structures using the same patterning process. The materials of these structures can be the same or different. For example, the precursor materials for forming the multiple structures arranged in the same layer can be the same, and the materials of the final structures can be the same or different.
[0151] The triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons in this specification are not in the strict sense, but may be approximate triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, pentagons or hexagons, etc. There may be some small deformations caused by tolerances, and there may be chamfers, arc edges and deformations.
[0152] The term "about" in the present disclosure refers to a numerical value that is not strictly defined and allows for process and measurement errors.

[0163] Figure 4a is an equivalent circuit diagram of a pixel driving circuit. As shown in Figure 4a, the pixel driving circuit has a 4T2C structure, which can include four transistors (a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, and a fourth transistor T4) and two storage capacitors (a first capacitor C1 and a second capacitor C2). The pixel driving circuit is connected to six signal lines (a first scan signal line S1, a second scan signal line S2, a third scan signal line S3, a data signal line DATA, a first power line VDD, and a second power line VSS).
[0164] In an exemplary embodiment, the pixel driving circuit may include a first node N1, a second node N2, and a third node N3. The first node N1 is connected to the second electrode of the first transistor T1, the gate electrode of the third transistor T3, and the first end of the first capacitor C1, respectively. The second node N2 is connected to the second electrode of the second transistor T2, the first electrode of the third transistor T3, the second end of the first capacitor C1, and the first end of the second capacitor C2, respectively. The third node N3 is connected to the second electrode of the third transistor T3 and the second electrode of the fourth transistor T4, respectively.
[0165] In an exemplary embodiment, the first transistor T1 can be referred to as a write switch transistor, a gate electrode of the first transistor T1 is connected to the first scan signal line S1, a first electrode of the first transistor T1 is connected to the data signal line DATA, and a second electrode of the first transistor T1 is connected to the first node N1.
[0166] In an exemplary embodiment, the second transistor T2 is called a display switch transistor, a gate electrode of the second transistor T2 is connected to the second scan signal line S2, a first electrode of the second transistor T2 is connected to the first power line VDD, and a second electrode of the second transistor T2 is connected to the second node N2.
[0167] In an exemplary embodiment, the third transistor T3 may be referred to as a driver transistor, a gate electrode of the third transistor T3 is connected to the first node N1, a first electrode of the third transistor T3 is connected to the second node N2, and a second electrode of the third transistor T3 is connected to the third node N3.
[0168] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth transistor T4 can be called an auto zero transistor, a gate electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is connected to the third scan signal line S3, a first electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is connected to the second power line VSS, and a second electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is connected to the third node N3.
[0169] In an exemplary embodiment, a first end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the first node N1, a second end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the second node N2, a first end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the second node N2, and a second end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the first power line VDD.
[0170] In an exemplary embodiment, the light emitting device EL may be an organic electroluminescent diode (OLED) including a stacked first electrode (anode), an organic light emitting layer, and a second electrode (cathode). The first electrode of the light emitting device XL is connected to the third node N3, and the second electrode of the light emitting device EL is connected to the common voltage line VCOM.
[0171] In an exemplary embodiment, the signal of the first power line VDD may be a continuously provided high level signal, and the signals of the second power line VSS and the common voltage line VCOM may be continuously provided low level signals.
[0172] In an exemplary embodiment, the first to fourth transistors T1 to T4 may be P-type transistors (PMOS) or N-type transistors (NMOS). For example, the first to fourth transistors T1 to T4 are all P-type transistors. Using the same type of transistors in the pixel driving circuit can simplify the process flow, reduce the difficulty of manufacturing the display substrate, and improve the product yield.
[0173] In an exemplary embodiment, the first to fourth transistors T1 to T4 may include P-type transistors and N-type transistors. For example, the first to third transistors T1 to T3 may be P-type transistors, and the fourth transistor T4 may be an N-type transistor, as shown in FIG4a. In an exemplary embodiment, the first to fourth transistors T1 to T4 are all P-type transistors. For example, the first to fourth transistors T1 to T4 may all be P-type transistors, as shown in FIG4b.
[0174] FIG5a is a driving timing diagram of the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG4a. As shown in FIG5a, in an exemplary embodiment, the operation process of the pixel driving circuit may include:
[0175] The first phase A1 (from the first moment t1 to the second moment t2) can be called the initialization phase. The signals of the first scan signal line S1 and the second scan signal line S2 are low-level signals, and the signal of the third scan signal line S3 is a high-level signal, so that the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2 and the fourth transistor T4 are turned on. The first transistor T1 is turned on so that the bias voltage Vofs output by the data signal line DATA is written into the first capacitor C1, and the potential Vs of the first node N1 (i.e., the gate electrode of the third transistor T3) is Vofs. The second transistor T2 is turned on so that the first power supply voltage ELVDD output by the first power line VDD is written into the second node N2, and the potential Vg of the second node N2 (i.e., the first electrode of the third transistor T3) is ELVDD. At this time, the gate-source voltage Vgs of the third transistor T3 is ELVDD-Vofs, and the storage voltage V of the first capacitor C1 is V cs =ELVDD-Vofs, the potential Vd of the third node N3 (ie, the second electrode of the third transistor T3) = Vg+Vth, preparing for the next stage of discharge. ofs >|Vth|, where Vth is the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3.
[0176] The second stage A2 (from the second moment t2 to the third moment t3) can be called the self-discharge stage. The signal of the third scanning signal line S3 is a high-level signal, and the fourth transistor T4 is continuously turned on. The signal of the first scanning signal line S1 changes from a low-level signal to a high-level signal, causing the first transistor T1 to be disconnected first, and the first node N1 to float. Subsequently, the signal of the second scanning signal line S2 changes from a low-level signal to a high-level signal, causing the second transistor T2 to be disconnected, and the second node N2 forms a loop through the turned-on third transistor T3, the third node N3 and the turned-on fourth transistor T4, and begins to discharge, and the potential of the second node N2 drops. Because the first node N1 is floating, the voltage difference across the first capacitor C1 remains unchanged, and thus the potential of the first node N1 drops as the potential of the second node N2 drops. Due to the back gate effect of the third transistor T3, the gate-source voltage Vgs of the third transistor T3 remains unchanged, and thus the equivalent threshold voltage |V th_EF |As the potential of the second node N2 decreases, the equivalent threshold voltage of the third transistor T3 gradually increases. th_EF |=α(ELVDD-Vs)+|Vth|, α is the back gate coefficient. When the equivalent threshold voltage of the third transistor T3 |V th_EF When Vgs increases to the gate-source voltage Vgs of the third transistor T3, the third transistor T3 is turned off and the second node N2 stops discharging.
[0177] The third stage A3 (from the third moment t3 to the fourth moment t4) can be called the data writing stage and the threshold compensation stage. The signal of the second scan signal line S2 is a high-level signal, and the second transistor T2 is continuously disconnected. The signal of the third scan signal line S3 is a high-level signal, and the fourth transistor T4 is continuously turned on. The signal of the first scan signal line S1 changes from a high-level signal to a low-level signal, turning on the first transistor T1. The first transistor T1 is turned on so that the data voltage Vdata output by the data signal line DATA is written to the first node N1, and the potential of the first node N1 changes from Vofs to Vdata. Since the second node N2 is floating, threshold compensation can be achieved in this stage.
[0178] The fourth phase A4 (after the fifth moment t5) can be called the light-emitting phase. The signals on the second scan signal line S2 and the third scan signal line S3 are low-level signals, and the signal on the first scan signal line S1 is high-level signal, turning on the second transistor T2 and turning off the first transistor T1 and the fourth transistor T4. Turning on the second transistor T2 causes the power supply voltage output from the first power line VDD to provide a driving voltage to the first electrode of the light-emitting device EL through the turned-on second transistor T2 and third transistor T3, driving the light-emitting device EL to emit light.
[0179] The fourth moment t4 is the moment when the signal of the first scanning signal line S1 changes from a low level to a high level, that is, the end time of the second valid signal in the signal of the first scanning signal line S1.
[0180] In the light-emitting stage, the driving current of the third transistor T3 is not affected by the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3, eliminating the influence of the threshold voltage of the third transistor T3 on the driving current, ensuring uniform display brightness of the display product and improving the display effect of the entire display product.

Among them, Z0 to Zn+1 and Z0_ to Zn+1_ The target signal generating circuit 20 may include a shift register circuit 100, a logical operation circuit (Logical Transition Unit) 200, a level conversion circuit (Level shifter) 300 and a line driver enhancement circuit (Line Driver) 400, which are mainly used to generate the line drive timing signal as shown in Figure 5a or Figure 5b. In an exemplary embodiment, the gate driver circuit can be arranged in the non-display area of the display substrate, can be located on one side of the pixel row direction of the display area in the display substrate, or can be located on both sides of the pixel row direction of the display area in the display substrate. The gate drive device may include multiple cascaded gate drive circuits, at least one of which is connected to a scan signal line in a pixel row in the display area, providing a scan signal to the connected scan signal line. When the gate drive device is positioned on both sides of the pixel row in the display area, the scan signal lines in the pixel row are driven by two gate drive circuits, forming a bilateral drive structure. This ensures high pixel density drive capability and prevents drive signal distortion.

[0215] In an exemplary embodiment, the shift register circuit 100 may be a shift register circuit composed of a D flip-flop (D Flip Flop, abbreviated as DFF). The shift register circuit 100 is connected to the display driver circuit and receives a timing signal generated by the display driver circuit. The timing signal may include a start signal STV and a clock signal CKV. The D flip-flop is configured to shift and register the received timing signal to initially generate a timing sequence that can be shifted row by row. The logic operation circuit 200 is connected to the shift register circuit 100 and is configured to perform a logic operation on the shifted signal to generate a plurality of target timing sequences with different waveforms. The level conversion circuit 300 is connected to the logic operation circuit 200 and is configured to perform voltage domain conversion on the target timing sequence. The row drive enhancement circuit 400 is connected to the level conversion circuit 300 and is configured to enhance the converted signal, thereby enhancing the output capability and outputting the scan signal to the display area.

The third scan signal may be referred to as a display reset signal (Auto Zero, AZ) signal, configured to control the on / off switching of a fourth transistor T4 in the pixel driving circuit.
[0218] In an exemplary embodiment, since signals such as the start signal and the clock signal are output by the display driver circuit, their voltage domains are inconsistent with the voltage domain of the pixel driver circuit. By converting the level converter in the level conversion circuit 300, the required voltage (0V to -2V & -5V) is introduced, thereby ensuring that the voltage of the output gate drive signal matches that of the pixel driver circuit.
[0219] In an exemplary embodiment, the start signal STV may be referred to as a frame start signal, with a period of one frame, and the clock signal CKV may be referred to as a row driving clock signal, with a period of one row.

The first NOR gate 501 and the second inverter 402 perform an OR operation on the AND operation result and the first input signal A_Qn_ at the first input terminal IN_A_Qn_. The second NOR gate 502 and the fourth inverter 404 perform an OR operation on the OR operation result and the fourth clock signal CKV4 at the fourth clock signal terminal IN_CKV4, i.e., F1 = B_Qn & C_Qn + A_Qn_ + CKV4. The third inverter 403 inverts the second reset signal at the second reset terminal LF_pulse2. The third NOR gate 503 performs a NOR operation on the inverted result and the first reset signal at the first reset terminal LF_pulse1, i.e., F2 serves as a control signal of the two-way selector 510. When F2=1, the output end of the two-way selector 510 outputs A_Qn (ie, the inverted signal of the first input signal A_Qn_); when F2=0, the output end of the two-way selector 510 outputs F1.

[0235] Figure 9a is a schematic diagram of the working principle of a second arithmetic circuit according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The second arithmetic circuit may include nine parts, namely six inverters, one NOR gate, one NAND gate, and one latch (D-Latch). As shown in Figure 9, the second arithmetic circuit may include a second NAND gate 302, a fifth inverter 405, a sixth inverter 406, a seventh inverter 407, an eighth inverter 408, a ninth inverter 409, a tenth inverter 410, a fourth NOR gate 504, and a latch 520.
[0236] In an exemplary embodiment, an input terminal of the fifth inverter 405 is connected to a write switch signal terminal WSn of the logic operation circuit, an output terminal of the fifth inverter 405 is connected to an input terminal of the sixth inverter 406, an output terminal of the sixth inverter 406 is connected to an input terminal of the seventh inverter 407, an output terminal of the seventh inverter 407 is connected to an input terminal of the eighth inverter 408, an output terminal of the eighth inverter 408 is connected to an input terminal of the ninth inverter 409, an output terminal of the ninth inverter 409 is connected to an input terminal of the tenth inverter 410, an output terminal of the tenth inverter 410 is connected to an enable signal terminal EN of a latch 520, and an input terminal of the latch 520 is connected to a second input terminal IN_B_Q of the logic operation circuit. n, the output of the latch 520 is connected to the second input of the fourth NOR gate 504, the first input of the fourth NOR gate 504 is connected to the duty control terminal IN_D_Qn of the logic operation circuit, the output of the fourth NOR gate 504 is connected to the first input of the second NAND gate 302, the second input of the second NAND gate 302 is connected to the second reset terminal LF_pulse2 of the logic operation circuit, and the output of the second NAND gate 302 serves as the output terminal OUT_DS of the second operation circuit and the display switch signal terminal OUT_DSn, and is connected to the display switch control terminal DS of the at least one pixel driving circuit, outputting the display switch signal to the display switch control terminal DS of the at least one pixel driving circuit. In an exemplary embodiment, the output of the second NAND gate 302 can be connected to the input of another level shifter (e.g., a second level shifter), outputting the display switch signal DSn to the level shifter. The level shifter performs level shifting on the display switch signal DSn and outputs it to the corresponding row driver booster (e.g., the second row driver booster). After the row driver booster performs signal amplification, the signal is output to the display switch control terminal of the corresponding pixel driving circuit.
[0237] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating principle of the second operation circuit is as follows: the fifth inverter 405 to the tenth inverter 410 delay the signal written to the switch signal terminal OUT_WSn and then input it to the enable signal terminal EN of the latch 520, which serves as the enable signal of the latch 520. The second input signal of the second input terminal IN_B_Qn of the logic operation circuit serves as the input signal of the latch 520. When the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is low, the output of the latch 520 remains unchanged. When the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is high, the output of the latch 520 changes with the second input signal. Subsequently, the fourth NOR gate 504 performs a NOR operation on the duty control signal D_Qn at the duty control terminal IN_D_Qn and the signal at the first output terminal OUT_Q of the latch 520. The second NAND gate 302 performs a NAND operation on the NOR operation result and the second reset signal at the second reset terminal LF_pulse2. The logical expression is: Where Q is the output signal of latch 520 (when the enable signal EN input to the enable signal terminal of latch 520 is high, Q = B_Qn; when the enable signal EN input to the enable signal terminal of latch 520 is low, the signal output from output terminal Q remains the original output signal; under normal operation, the enable signal EN input to the enable signal terminal of latch 520 is high, Q = B_Qn). LF_pulse2 is the reset signal. Under normal operation, LF_pulse2 = 1, and DSn = D_Qn + Q. When a global reset is required, LF_pulse2 = 0, and the output signal DSn of the second arithmetic circuit is high (i.e., DSn = 1). D_Qn is the emission duty control signal. When the emission duty is 100%, D_Qn remains low, and DSn = Q. To adjust the emission duty, the duty cycle of D_Qn can be adjusted.
[0238] As shown in FIG9b, a working principle diagram of a latch 520 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The latch 520 includes one inverter and four NAND gates. As shown in FIG9b, the latch 520 includes a twenty-first NAND gate 521, a twenty-second NAND gate 522, a twenty-third NAND gate 523, a twenty-fourth NAND gate 524, and a twenty-fifth inverter 525. The first input terminal of the twenty-first NAND gate 521 is connected to the second input terminal B_Qn of the logic operation circuit, the second input terminal of the twenty-first NAND gate 521 is connected to the enable signal terminal EN, the output terminal of the twenty-first NAND gate 521 is connected to the first input terminal of the twenty-second NAND gate 522, and the second input terminal of the twenty-second NAND gate 522 is connected to the second input terminal of the latch 520. The output terminal OUT_Q_ is connected, and the output terminal of the twenty-second NAND gate 522 serves as the first output terminal Q of the latch 520; the input terminal of the twenty-fifth inverter 525 is connected to the second input terminal IN_B_Qn of the logic operation circuit, the output terminal of the twenty-fifth inverter 525 is connected to the first input terminal of the twenty-third NAND gate 523, the second input terminal of the twenty-third NAND gate 523 is connected to the enable signal terminal EN, the output terminal of the twenty-third NAND gate 523 is connected to the second input terminal of the twenty-fourth NAND gate 524, the first input terminal of the twenty-fourth NAND gate 524 is connected to the first output terminal OUT_Q of the latch 520, and the output terminal of the twenty-fourth NAND gate 524 serves as the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the latch 520. As shown in Figure 9c, it is a working timing diagram of the latch provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure (the horizontal axis in Figure 9c is time, the unit is microseconds; the vertical axis is voltage, the unit is volt V); in Figure 9b, the signal of the first node B1 is the result of the NAND operation obtained by performing a NAND operation on the second input signal B_Qn and the enable signal EN, the signal of the second node B2 is the result of the NAND operation obtained by performing a NAND operation on the second input signal B_Qn after being inverted by the inverter and the enable signal EN, the output signal Q is the result of the NAND operation obtained by performing a NAND operation on the signal of the first node B1 and the signal of the output terminal OUT_Q_, and the output signal Q_ is the result of the NAND operation obtained by performing a NAND operation on the signal of the second node B2 and the signal of the output terminal Q.
[0239] As shown in FIG9c , in the first stage t1, the enable signal EN is a high-level signal and the second input signal B_Qn is a low-level signal. The signal of the first node B1 obtained by performing a NAND operation on the enable signal EN and the second input signal B_Qn is a high-level signal. The signal of the second node B2 obtained by performing a NAND operation on the second input signal B_Qn after inverting the second input signal B_Qn and performing a NAND operation on the enable signal EN is a low-level signal. The signal of the second node B2 and the signal of the first output terminal OUT_Q obtained by performing a NAND operation on the second output terminal OUT_Q is a high-level signal. Since the signals of the first node B1 and the second output terminal OUT_Q_ are both high-level, the signal of the first output terminal OUT_Q obtained by performing a NAND operation on the signal of the first node B1 and the signal of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ is a low-level signal. In the second stage t2, the enable signal EN is a low-level signal and the second input signal B_Qn changes from a low-level signal to a high-level signal. Since the enable signal EN is a low-level signal, the first node B1 and the second node B2 are both high-level signals. The first output terminal OUT_Q maintains the low level of the previous stage, and the second output terminal OUT_Q_ maintains the high level signal of the previous stage; in the third stage t3, the enable signal EN and the second input signal B_Qn are both high level signals, the first node B1 obtained by performing a NAND operation on the enable signal EN and the second input signal B_Qn is a low level signal, the signal of the first node B1 and the signal of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ are performed a NAND operation to obtain the first output terminal OUT_Q is a high level signal, the second input signal B_Qn is inverted and performed a NAND operation on the enable signal EN to obtain the second node B2 is a high level signal, the second section The second output terminal OUT_Q_ obtained by performing a NAND operation on the signal at point B2 and the signal at the first output terminal OUT_Q is a low-level signal; the timing of the fourth stage t4 and the sixth stage t6 is the same as that of the second stage t2, the timing of the fifth stage t5 and the seventh stage t7 is the same as that of the third stage t3, and the timing of the eighth stage t8 and the tenth stage t10 is the same as that of the first stage t1; in the ninth stage t9 and the eleventh stage t11, the second input signal B_Qn changes from a high-level signal to a low-level signal, and the timing of other signals is the same as that of the second stage t2.
[0240] As can be seen from FIG9b and FIG9c, the latch 520 has the following three states in total. The first state: the enable signal EN is at a high level (1), the second input signal B_Qn is a low level signal (0), the signal of the first node B1 is at a high level, the signal of the second node B2 is at a low level, the signal of the second output terminal Q_ is a high level signal, and the signal of the first output terminal OUT_Q is a low level signal (called a latch set 0 operation); the second state: the enable signal EN is at a low level (0), the second input signal B_Qn is any signal (high level or low level), the first node B 1 and the signals of the second node B2 are both high level, the second output terminal OUT_Q_ and the first output terminal Q maintain the original output signal and do not change with the change of the second input signal B_Qn (called the holding stage, the stage of latching 1-bit binary number); the third state: the enable signal EN is high level (1), the second input signal B_Qn is a high level signal (1), the signal of the first node B1 is low level, the signal of the second node B2 is high level, the signal of the first output terminal Q is a high level signal (latch set 1 stage), and the signal of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ is a low level signal.
[0241] The D latch 520 in FIG9a primarily functions to prevent the high level of the display switch signal DSn from enclosing the first low level of the write switch signal WSn (i.e., the first low level of the write switch signal WSn at least partially overlaps with the high level of the display switch signal DSn). If the high level of the display switch signal DSn shifts forward to enclose the first low level of the write switch signal WSn, the time for writing the first power supply voltage at the second node N2 of the pixel driver circuit and the time for writing the bias voltage Vofs at the first node N1 of the pixel driver circuit will be shortened, resulting in incomplete initialization. If the first low level of the write switch signal WSn shifts backward to enclose the high level of the display switch signal DSn, the self-discharge time of the pixel driver circuit will be shortened, resulting in inaccurate threshold voltage readings. The D latch 520 operates normally only when the enable signal EN input to the enable signal terminal EN of the latch 520 is at a high level (i.e., EN=1). If the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is not at a high level (e.g., EN=0), the latch state is indeterminate, and the signal output from the first output terminal Q of the latch 520 is indeterminate.

[0258] Figure 11 is a schematic diagram illustrating the operation of a third arithmetic circuit according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The third arithmetic circuit may include two components: a NOR gate and a NAND gate. As shown in Figure 9 , the third arithmetic circuit may include a fifth NOR gate 505 and a third NAND gate 303.
[0259] In an exemplary embodiment, a first input terminal of the fifth NOR gate 505 is connected to the third input terminal C_Qn of the logic operation circuit, a second input terminal of the fifth NOR gate 505 is connected to the second input terminal B_Qn of the logic operation circuit, a third input terminal of the fifth NOR gate 505 is connected to the duty control terminal D_Qn of the logic operation circuit, an output terminal of the fifth NOR gate 505 is connected to the first input terminal of the third NAND gate 303, a second input terminal of the third NAND gate 303 is connected to the second reset terminal LF_pulse2 of the logic operation circuit, and an output terminal of the third NAND gate 303 serves as the output terminal OUT_AZ of the third operation circuit and as the display reset signal terminal AZn of the logic operation circuit, and is connected to the display reset control terminal AZ in at least one pixel driving circuit, and outputs a display reset signal to the display reset control terminal AZ in the at least one pixel driving circuit. In an exemplary embodiment, the output end of the third NAND gate 303 can be connected to the input end of another level converter (e.g., a third level converter), and a display reset signal is output to the level converter. The level converter converts the display reset signal into a voltage domain and outputs the signal to a corresponding row driver enhancer (e.g., a third row driver enhancer). The row driver enhancer enhances the converted signal and outputs the signal to a display reset control terminal AZ in a corresponding pixel driver circuit.
[0260] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating principle of the third operation circuit is as follows: the fifth NOR gate 505 performs a NOR operation on the third input signal of the third input terminal IN_C_Qn, the second input signal of the second input terminal IN_B_Qn, and the duty control signal of the duty control terminal IN_D_Qn, and the third NAND gate 303 performs a NAND operation on the NOR operation result and the second reset signal of the second reset terminal IN_LF_pulse2. The logical expression thereof is: Among them, LF_pulse2 is the initialization signal, which maintains a high level under normal working conditions (i.e., LF_pulse2=1), then AZn=B_Qn+C_Qn+D_Qn. When LF_pulse2 is a low level (i.e., LF_pulse2=0), then AZn=1, and AZn outputs a high level. When the luminous time accounts for 100%, D_Qn remains at a low level, then AZn=B_Qn+C_Qn. When it is necessary to adjust the luminous time proportion, it can be done by adjusting the duty cycle of D_Qn. That is, the duty cycle control signal of the duty cycle control terminal D_Qn can simultaneously affect the write switch signal DSn and the display reset signal AZn, and the write switch signal DSn and the display reset signal AZn can be simultaneously controlled by the duty cycle control signal of the duty cycle control terminal D_Qn, thereby adjusting and controlling the luminous time proportion of the luminous stage.

[0268] FIG14 is a schematic diagram illustrating the operating principle of a row driver enhancer according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG14 , the row driver enhancer may include a fourth NAND gate 304, a fifth NAND gate 305, a first transmission gate 201, a twelfth inverter 412, a third P-type field effect transistor 503P, and a third N-type field effect transistor 503N. The third P-type field effect transistor 503P and the third N-type field effect transistor 503N have a relatively large width-to-length ratio to improve driving capability. The row driver enhancer can enhance the driving capability of a signal. The signal enhanced by the row driver enhancer can enhance the driving capability and can be suitable for driving an entire row of pixel driver circuits. In an exemplary embodiment, the enable signal input terminal IN_EN in FIG14 can be electrically connected to the reset control subcircuit 10-3 in FIG6 d and configured to receive the reset control signal from the reset control subcircuit 10-3. The reset control subcircuit 10-3 may include a NAND gate and an inverter, wherein the two input terminals of the NAND gate are respectively connected to the reset control terminal and the reset terminal, the output terminal of the NAND gate is connected to the input terminal of the inverter, and the output terminal of the inverter is connected to the enable signal input terminal IN_EN in the row driver enhancer.
[0269] In an exemplary embodiment, a first input terminal IN_driver of the row driver booster is connected to a first input terminal of a fourth NAND gate 304, an enable signal terminal EN of the row driver booster is connected to a second input terminal of the fourth NAND gate 304, an output terminal of the fourth NAND gate 304 is connected to an input terminal of the first transmission gate 201, an output terminal of the first transmission gate 201 is connected to a gate electrode of a third P-type field effect transistor 503P, and a first electrode of the third P-type field effect transistor 503P is connected to a first power supply line VDD. A second input terminal IN_B_driver of the row driver booster is connected to a first input terminal of a fifth NAND gate 305, an enable signal EN of the row driver booster is connected to a second input terminal of the fifth NAND gate 305, an output terminal of the fifth NAND gate 305 is connected to an input terminal of a twelfth inverter 412, an output terminal of the twelfth inverter 412 is connected to a gate electrode of a third N-type field effect transistor 503N, and a first electrode of the third N-type field effect transistor 503N is connected to a second power supply line VSS. The second electrode of the third P-type field-effect transistor 503P and the second electrode of the third N-type field-effect transistor 503N are connected to the output terminal OUT_driver of the row driver booster. The first transmission gate 201 and the twelfth inverter 412 have active-high enable terminals connected to the first power line VDD, and active-low enable terminals connected to the second power line VSS. The fourth NAND gate 304 and the fifth NAND gate 305 have active-high enable terminals connected to the first power line VDD, and active-low enable terminals connected to the ground line GND. In an exemplary embodiment, the output terminal of the second row driver booster is electrically connected to the display switch control terminal DS of the corresponding pixel driver circuit, and the output terminal of the third row driver booster is electrically connected to the display reset control terminal AZ of the corresponding pixel driver circuit.
[0270] In an exemplary embodiment, when the enable signal input to the enable signal terminal IN_EN of the row driver booster is a first level signal, the row driver booster is in a high-impedance state. This satisfies the requirement that, when the gate driver circuit is bilaterally driven (i.e., the gate driver circuit is located on both sides of the display area of the display substrate), the enable signal input to the enable signal terminal of the row driver booster located on one side of the display area is set to the first level, so that the modified row driver booster is in a high-impedance state, thereby achieving unilateral driving of the gate driver circuit. That is, when gate driver circuits are provided on both sides of the display area, the high-impedance state of the row driver booster can achieve unilateral driving of the gate driver circuit (the row driver booster on one side of the display area is in a high-impedance state) or bilateral driving (the row driver boosters on both sides of the display area are not in a high-impedance state).
[0271] In an exemplary embodiment, the first level of the enable signal input to the enable signal terminal EN of the row driver booster may be a low level, that is, the enable signal is a low level. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. The row driver booster can be configured according to the circuit structure of the row driver booster so that the row driver booster is in a high-impedance state when the enable signal is at the first level.
[0272] In an exemplary embodiment, the row driver booster operates as follows:
[0273] When the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is 0, the fourth NAND gate 304 and the fifth NAND gate 305 output 1 (high level). The output of the fourth NAND gate 304 outputs 1 (high level) after passing through the first transmission gate 201, the third P-type field effect transistor 503P is turned off, and the output of the fifth NAND gate 305 outputs 0 (low level) after passing through the twelfth inverter 412, the third N-type field effect transistor 503N is turned off, and the entire circuit is in a high-impedance state.
[0274] When the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is 1, the circuit output is determined by the input signals at the first input terminal IN_driver and the second input terminal IN_B_driver of the row driver enhancer. The input signal at the first input terminal IN_driver and the input signal at the second input terminal IN_B_driver of the row driver enhancer are opposite direction signals. The opposite direction signals mean that the input signal at the first input terminal IN_driver is a high level signal 1, and the input signal at the second input terminal IN_B_driver is a low level signal 0; the input signal at the first input terminal IN_driver is a low level signal 0, and the input signal at the second input terminal IN_B_driver is a high level signal 1.
[0275] When the input signal at the first input terminal IN_driver of the row driver booster is 1 and the input signal at the second input terminal IN_B_driver is 0, the fourth NAND gate 304 outputs 0. The output of the fourth NAND gate 304 is output as 0 after passing through the first transmission gate 201, and the third P-type field effect transistor 503P is turned on. The fifth NAND gate 305 outputs 1. The output of the fifth NAND gate 305 is output as 0 after passing through the twelfth inverter 412, and the third N-type field effect transistor 503N is turned off. The output signal at the output terminal OUT_driver of the row driver booster is the signal of the first power line VDD (high level).
[0276] When the input signal at the first input terminal IN_driver of the row driver booster is 0 and the input signal at the second input terminal IN_B_driver is 1, the fourth NAND gate 304 outputs 1. The output of the fourth NAND gate 304 outputs 1 after passing through the first transmission gate 201, and the third P-type field effect transistor 503P is turned off. The fifth NAND gate 305 outputs 0. The output of the fifth NAND gate 305 outputs 1 after passing through the twelfth inverter 412, and the third N-type field effect transistor 503N is turned on. The output signal at the output terminal OUT_driver of the row driver booster is the signal of the second power line VSS (low level).
[0277] In an exemplary embodiment, when the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is 0, the circuit output is in a high-impedance state. When the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is 1, the circuit output does not change the logical relationship between the high and low inputs and outputs; the enable signal at the enable signal terminal EN is a high-configuration control signal. In principle, the row driver booster is a buffer with a large width-to-length ratio, resulting in high output current and high drive capability. Furthermore, the row driver booster has low output impedance and strong drive capability.
[0278] In an exemplary embodiment, the input terminal IN_shifter of the level converter can be connected to the output terminal of the logic operation circuit 200, the first output terminal OUT_shifter of the level converter can be connected to the first input terminal IN_driver of the row driver enhancer, the second output terminal OUT_B_shifter of the level converter can be connected to the second input terminal IN_B_driver of the row driver enhancer, and the output terminal OUT_driver of the row driver enhancer can be connected to the scan signal line of the display area.

[0298] In an exemplary embodiment, the trigger is active on a rising edge. With each rising edge, the output maintains the state of the previous stage input to the input terminal IN_D. RN is the reset signal terminal (or initialization signal terminal). When it is high, the shift register circuit is active. FIG20 shows an operational timing diagram of the trigger shown in FIG19 . In FIG20 , the horizontal axis represents time in microseconds, and the vertical axis represents voltage in volts (V). The operation of the trigger may include the first stage p1 to the sixth stage p6 (the signal input to the initialization signal terminal RN is high during the first stage p1 to the ninth stage p9):
[0299] Phase 1 p1: The input signal at the clock signal terminal CK of the flip-flop is low, the input signal D at the input terminal IN_D of the flip-flop is low, the first node CK_ is high, the second node CK' is low, the second transmission gate 202 and the fourth transmission gate 204 are turned on, and the third transmission gate 203 is turned off. Since the second transmission gate 202 is turned on, the low-level signal at the input terminal IN_D is transmitted to the node A via the second transmission gate 202. Node A (which can be called the third node of the flip-flop) is low, and node D_ (which can be called the fourth node of the flip-flop) is high. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, the node D_' (which can be called the fifth node of the flip-flop) remains high. The output signal Q at the first output terminal OUT_Q of the flip-flop is low. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on, the high level of node D_' is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the flip-flop via the fourth transmission gate 204.

Since the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the low-level signal of the input terminal D cannot be transmitted to the node A through the second transmission gate 202. Node A maintains the low level of the previous stage, and node D_ maintains the high level of the previous stage. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned on, node The high-level signal of D is transmitted to the node D_' via the third transmission gate 203. The node D_' is at a high level, and the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is at a low level. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is disconnected, the high level of the node D_' cannot be transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger via the fourth transmission gate 204. The low level of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger and the high level of the initial signal terminal RN are NANDed by the seventh NAND gate 307 to obtain a high level. The output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is at a high level.

Since the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the high-level signal D at the input terminal IN_D cannot be transmitted to the node A via the second transmission gate 202. Node A maintains the low level of the previous phase, and node D_ maintains the high level of the previous phase. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned on, the high-level signal at node D is transmitted to the node D_' via the third transmission gate 203. Node D_' is high, and the output signal Q at the first output terminal OUT_Q of the flip-flop is low. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is disconnected, the high level of the node D_' cannot be transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger through the fourth transmission gate 204. The low level of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger and the high level of the initial signal terminal RN are NANDed by the seventh NAND gate 307 to obtain a high level.

Since the second transmission gate 202 is turned on, the high-level signal D at the input terminal IN_D is transmitted to the node A via the second transmission gate 202. Node A is high, and node D_ becomes low. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, node D_' remains high. The output signal Q at the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is low. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on, the high level of node D_' is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger via the fourth transmission gate 204.

Since the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the high-level signal of the input terminal IN_D cannot be transmitted to the node A through the second transmission gate 202. Node A maintains the high level of the previous phase, and node D_ maintains the low level of the previous phase. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned on, node D_ The low-level signal of the trigger is transmitted to the node D_' via the third transmission gate 203. The node D_' is at a low level, and the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is at a high level. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is disconnected, the low level of the node D_' cannot be transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger via the fourth transmission gate 204. The high level of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger and the high level of the initial signal terminal RN are obtained by the NAND operation of the seventh NAND gate 307 to obtain a low level. The output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is at a low level.

Since the second transmission gate 202 is turned on, the high-level signal at the input terminal IN_D is transmitted to the node A via the second transmission gate 202. Node A is high, and node D_ is low. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, node D_' remains at its original low level. The output signal Q at the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is high. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on, the low level at the node D_' is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger via the fourth transmission gate 204. The output signal Q_ at the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is low.
[0305] The eighth stage p8: The working sequence is the same as that of the sixth stage p6, and will not be repeated here.

Node A is low, and node D_ is high. Since the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, the node D_' maintains its original low level. The output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is high. Since the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on, the low level of the node D_' is transmitted to the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger via the fourth transmission gate 204. The output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is low.
[0307] Combining the first stage p1 to the ninth stage p9, the working principle of the trigger is:
[0308] (1) When the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is at a low level and the input signal D of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is at a low level, the second transmission gate 202 is turned on, the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, and the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on. The node A is a low level signal, the node D_ is a high level signal, the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger maintains the original level signal (for example, a low level), and the output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OIT_Q_ of the trigger maintains the original level signal (for example, a high level).
[0309] (2) When the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is at a high level and the input signal D of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is at a low level, the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the third transmission gate 203 is turned on, and the fourth transmission gate 204 is disconnected. Node A and node D_ maintain their original potentials. When node A is originally a low-level signal and node D_ is originally a high-level signal, the output of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is low-level, and the output of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is high-level; when node A is originally a high-level signal and node D_ is originally a low-level signal, the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is high-level, and the output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is low-level.
[0310] (3) When the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is at a low level and the input signal of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is at a high level, the second transmission gate 202 is turned on, the third transmission gate 203 is turned off, and the fourth transmission gate 204 is turned on. Node A is a high-level signal, and node D_ is a low-level signal. The signal after the third transmission gate 203 is latched (i.e., the signal from node D_' to the first output terminal OUT_Q and the second output terminal OUT_Q_ is latched), and the output is maintained (i.e., the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger and the output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger maintain their original levels);
[0311] (4) When the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is at a high level and the input signal of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is at a high level, the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the third transmission gate 203 is turned on, and the fourth transmission gate 204 is disconnected. Node A and node D_ maintain their original potentials. When node A is originally a low-level signal and node D_ is originally a high-level signal, the output of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is low-level, and the output of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is high-level; when node A is originally a high-level signal and node D_ is originally a low-level signal, the output signal Q of the first output terminal OUT_Q of the trigger is high-level, and the output signal Q_ of the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is low-level.

[0325] In an exemplary embodiment, a first test circuit can detect whether a write switch signal DSn outputted from an output terminal OUT_WS of the first arithmetic circuit is consistent with a target timing. If the write switch signal WSn detected at the output terminal Test_WS of the first test circuit is inconsistent with the target timing, it indicates that an abnormality has occurred in the write switch signal WSn before the write switch signal WSn enters the level shifter 300 and the line driver enhancement circuit 400. Therefore, it can be inferred that an operational abnormality of the first arithmetic circuit has caused the write switch signal WSn to be inconsistent with the target timing.

[0327] In an exemplary embodiment, a second test circuit can detect whether the display switching signal DSn outputted from the output terminal OUT_DS of the second arithmetic circuit is consistent with a target timing. If the display switching signal DSn detected at the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit is inconsistent with the target timing, it indicates that the display switching signal DSn has already experienced an abnormality before entering the level shifter circuit 300 and the line driver enhancement circuit 400. Therefore, it can be inferred that the abnormal operation of the second arithmetic circuit has caused the display switching signal DSn to be inconsistent with the target timing. If the display switching signal DSn detected at the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit is consistent with the target timing, it indicates that the display switching signal DSn has experienced an abnormality after entering the level shifter circuit 300 and the line driver enhancement circuit 400. Therefore, it can be inferred that the second arithmetic circuit is operating normally. Therefore, the display switching signal DSn outputted by the second arithmetic circuit can be tested at the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit to determine whether the second arithmetic circuit is operating normally. In an exemplary embodiment, the output terminal Test_DS of the first test circuit can be brought out through a pad around the display area. During testing, the signal input terminal of the oscilloscope can be electrically connected to the pad of the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit. The waveform output by the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit is obtained through the oscilloscope, and the waveform output by the output terminal Test_DS of the second test circuit is compared with the waveform of the target timing to see whether they are consistent. If they are consistent, it indicates that the second operation circuit is working normally, and if they are inconsistent, it indicates that the second operation circuit is working abnormally.
[0328] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG24 , the gate drive circuit may further include a third test circuit, which may be configured to test the display reset signal output by the third logic circuit. The operating principle diagram of the third test circuit is shown in FIG24 . The third test circuit may include two inverters, and the input of the third test circuit may be electrically connected to the output OUT_AZ of the third operation circuit (i.e., the display reset signal terminal OUT_AZn of the logic operation circuit). As shown in FIG24 , the third test circuit may include a seventeenth inverter 417 and an eighteenth inverter 418. The input of the seventeenth inverter 417 is connected to the output OUT_AZ of the third operation circuit, and the output of the seventeenth inverter 417 is connected to the input of the eighteenth inverter 418.

[0329] In an exemplary embodiment, a third test circuit can detect whether the display reset signal AZn outputted from the output terminal OUT_AZ of the third arithmetic circuit is consistent with a target timing. If the display reset signal AZn detected at the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit is inconsistent with the target timing, it indicates that the display reset signal AZn has already experienced an abnormality before entering the level shifter circuit 300 and the line driver enhancement circuit 400. Therefore, it can be inferred that the abnormal operation of the third arithmetic circuit has caused the display reset signal AZn to be inconsistent with the target timing. If the display reset signal AZn detected at the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit is consistent with the target timing, it indicates that the display reset signal AZn has experienced an abnormality after entering the level shifter circuit 300 and the line driver enhancement circuit 400. Therefore, it can be inferred that the third arithmetic circuit is operating normally. Therefore, the display reset signal AZn outputted by the third arithmetic circuit can be tested at the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit to determine whether the third arithmetic circuit is operating normally. In an exemplary embodiment, the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit can be brought out through a pad around the display area.

The waveform output by the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit is obtained through the oscilloscope, and the waveform output by the output terminal Test_AZ of the third test circuit is compared with the waveform of the target timing to see whether they are consistent. If they are consistent, it indicates that the third operation circuit is working normally, and if they are inconsistent, it indicates that the third operation circuit is working abnormally.
[0330] In an exemplary embodiment, under normal circumstances, the display image is displayed in a display area located in the center of the display substrate. The position of the display area (i.e., the position of the displayed image) is generally fixed. In actual products, the image may be mechanically blocked due to alignment issues, or pixel-level alignment may be required during assembly, requiring the displayed image to be moved. While maintaining the resolution of the displayed image, at least one of the rows and columns may need to be added. Combined with the configuration of the shift register circuit 100, the function of moving the displayed image position can be referred to as the Orbit function. The vertical Orbit function (moving the displayed image in the column direction Y) can be implemented through the addressing configuration of the gate driver circuit, and the horizontal Orbit function (moving the displayed image in the row direction X) can be implemented through the configuration of the data driver circuit.
[0331] As shown in Figures 25a to 25c, a resolution of 3840x3552 and ±8 Orbit Pixel (i.e., 8 rows of pixels offset to the upper or lower side, and 8 columns of pixels offset to the left or right) is used as an example for explanation. Under normal circumstances, as shown in Figure 25a, the displayed image is displayed in the center; in the case of mechanical occlusion in the lower left corner, the displayed image can be moved to the upper right side (+8, +8) by setting the gate drive circuit and the data drive circuit, as shown in Figure 25b, that is, the displayed image is moved 8 columns of pixels to the right and 8 rows of pixels upward; in the case of mechanical occlusion in the upper left corner, the displayed image can be moved to the lower right side (-8, +8) by setting the gate drive circuit and the data drive circuit, as shown in Figure 25c, that is, the displayed image is moved 8 rows of pixels downward and 8 columns of pixels to the right; in the case of mechanical occlusion in the upper right corner, the displayed image can be moved to the lower left side (-8, +8) by setting the gate drive circuit and the data drive circuit, as shown in Figure 25d. , -8), that is, the displayed image is moved downward by 8 rows of pixels and to the left by 8 columns of pixels; in the case of mechanical occlusion on the right side, the displayed image can be moved to the left side (0, -8) by setting the data driving circuit as shown in FIG25e, that is, the displayed image is moved to the left by 8 columns of pixels; in the case of mechanical occlusion on the left side, the displayed image can be moved to the right side (0, +8) by setting the data driving circuit as shown in FIG25f, that is, the displayed image is moved to the right by 8 columns of pixels; in the case of mechanical occlusion on the upper side, the displayed image can be moved to the lower side (-8, 0) by setting the gate driving circuit as shown in FIG25g, that is, the displayed image is moved downward by 8 rows of pixels; in the case of mechanical occlusion on the lower side, the displayed image can be moved to the upper side (+8, 0) by setting the gate driving circuit as shown in FIG25h, that is, the displayed image is moved upward by 8 rows of pixels.
[0332] In an exemplary embodiment, the order of row-by-row scanning can be adjusted by configuring a gate drive circuit. The scanning order can include forward scanning and reverse scanning. Forward scanning can be performed from top to bottom (i.e., scanning in the opposite direction of the column direction Y), and reverse scanning can be performed from bottom to top (i.e., scanning in the column direction Y). The gate drive circuit can be configured to convert forward scanning to reverse scanning, or vice versa. Under these two scanning orders, the displayed image can be flipped along the first centerline (the first centerline can be the centerline of the displayed image extending along the pixel row direction). This can be applied to VR binocular display systems. Figure 26a shows image "F" displayed after forward scanning, and Figure 26b shows image "F" displayed after reverse scanning.
[0333] In an exemplary embodiment, the architecture of the gate drive circuit for realizing the forward and reverse scanning functions and the Orbit function is shown in FIG27. In a display substrate with a resolution of 3840x3552 and capable of realizing ±8 Orbit Pixel (i.e., 8 rows of pixels offset upward or downward), a total of 3856 rows are required for 3840 resolution and ±8 Orbit Pixel. That is, on the basis of 3840 rows of pixels, 8 rows of pixels on the first side (i.e., the top 8 rows, which can be called Top 8 Orbit Line) and 8 rows of pixels on the second side (i.e., the bottom 8 rows, which can be called Bottom 8 Orbit Line) are added; in order to realize ±8 The function of Orbit shift requires start and end control of ±17 lines (that is, start and end control of 17 lines in the first type of control lines and 17 lines in the second type of control lines). Taking the display of 8 lines shifted up as an example, the control logic for determining the start and end lines of scanning and the forward and reverse scanning is explained: When the displayed image is shifted up by 8 lines of pixels, the initial trigger signal (that is, STV signal) needs to be given to "Orbit8" in the "first side 8 lines" and "Orbit8" in the "second side 8 lines" in Figure 27, that is, "Orbit8" in the "first side 8 lines" and "Orbit8" in the "second side 8 lines". The row is set as the scan start row, and the initial input signals (i.e., STV signals) of the remaining 16 rows in the first category of control rows and the 16 rows in the second category of control rows are cut off. In this way, the "Orbit8" row in the "first side 8 rows" and the "Orbit8" row in the "second side 8 rows" receive the STV trigger signal, and then the forward scan or reverse scan is determined by setting the transmission gate in the gate drive circuit. In the case of reverse scanning, the STV signal can continue to be transmitted to the upper level through the "Orbit8" row in the "second side 8 rows" (i.e., transmitted in the direction of the "Orbit8" row in the first side 8 rows). In the case of forward scanning, the STV signal can be transmitted to the lower level through the "Orbit8" row in the "first side 8 rows" (i.e., transmitted in the direction of the "Orbit8" row in the second side 8 rows). Through the enable signal input to the trigger (e.g., a D trigger) in the gate drive circuit, the "Orbit-8" to "Orbit7" rows in the second category of control rows are reset, and the trigger is set to a high-impedance state. The logic table for scanning the start row can be shown in Table 1, that is, the register value for setting the scan start row (the logic value in Table 1 is the input code of the shift register):
[0334] Table 1: Logic table for scanning starting row
[0335] In Table 1, the logical value may be the logical value of the scan start row, and the scan start row represents the start row in the "8 rows on the first side" and the "8 rows on the second side". For example, the scan start row +8 in Table 1 represents that "Orbit8" in the "8 rows on the first side" and "Orbit8" in the "8 rows on the second side" are used as the start rows; the scan start row -8 in Table 1 represents that "Orbit-8" in the "8 rows on the first side" and "Orbit-8" in the "8 rows on the second side" are used as the start rows.
[0336] In an exemplary embodiment, Table 2 shows a start row strobe truth table, Table 3 shows a reset (off) row strobe truth table for the first type of control row, and Table 4 shows a reset (off) row strobe truth table for the second type of control row:

[0338] In Table 2, Z1 to Z8 are the output scan start row control signals of Orbit1 to Orbit8 in the first and second control rows respectively, Z_1 to Z_8 are the output scan start row control signals of Orbit-1 to Orbit-8 in the first and second control rows respectively, and Z0 is the output scan start row control signal of the 3840th row as the starting row.

[0342] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 28a shows a circuit schematic diagram of a gate drive circuit that implements the first type of control row in Figure 27; Figure 28b shows a circuit schematic diagram of a gate drive circuit that implements the second type of control row in Figure 27, and Figure 29 shows a schematic diagram of a shift control module. The shift control module can be a functional module in the gate drive circuit that can implement the first type of control row and the second type of control row in Figure 27.
[0343] Taking Orbit8 (i.e., shifting the displayed image up by 8 lines) as an example, the working principle of the shift control module shown in FIG29 is illustrated: as shown in FIG29, the values of the input control signals from the first input terminal A0 to the fifth input control terminal A4 are set to 01000, and the shift control module (which can be called the Orbit Controller circuit module) outputs a scan start line control signal [Z_8: Z_1, Z0: Z8] with a value of 000000000000000001. The Orbit8 row scan start control transmission gate in the first type of control line (which can be called the T-Start / End Control Line, which can include the first type of offset shift register circuit P100) and the second type of control line (which can be called the B-Start / End Control Line, which can include the second type of offset shift register circuit P100) is turned on, and the initial STV inputted by the initial signal input terminal IN_STV is inputted into the D flip-flop in the shift register circuit 100; the remaining 32 row scan start control transmission gates (including 16 row scan start control transmission gates and the B-Start / End Control Line in the T-Start / End Control Line) are turned on. The 16-row scan start control transmission gate in Line is turned off, and the initial signal STV is cut off. The forward and reverse scan control signals are GSD_FW and GSD_BW, where GSD_FW and GSD_BW are mutually inverse signals (for example, mutually inverse signals can be: when the GSD_FW signal is 1, the GSD_BW signal is 0; when the GSD_FW signal is 0, the GSD_BW signal is 1). When GSD_FW=1 and GSD_BW=0, the transmission gate controlled by the forward and reverse scan signals in the Orbit8 row of the first type of control row (which can be called Top Orbit8) is opened, and the Orbit8 row of the second type of control row (which can be called Bottom Orbit8) is opened. The transmission gate controlled by the forward and reverse scan signals in the shift register circuit in row Orbit8 (i.e., the forward and reverse scan control circuit) is turned off, realizing the forward scan function, and vice versa, realizing the reverse scan function; the output reset control signal [T_7:T_1,T0:T8] has a value of 111111111111111111, and the value of [T_7_:T_1_,T0_:T8_] is 00000000000000000. After passing through the NAND gate and NOT gate in the reset control circuit 10-3, the reset signal input to the row driver enhancer (Driver) is 0. All B-Start / End Control Line rows except Bottom Orbit8 are reset to a high-impedance state, and no gate driver timing signal is output.
[0344] As shown in Figures 28a and 28b, a transmission gate is incorporated into the gate drive register circuit to prevent erroneous signal input into the shift register circuit. This prevents noise signals from causing abnormal output from the row drive boost circuit (gate drive), reduces the risk of display anomalies, and improves product yield. The operating principle diagram is shown in Figure 27. During forward scanning, the two transmission gate control signals between the B-Start / End Control Line shift registers are inverse signals (Z* and Z*_), preventing the initial signal STV from transmitting in the reverse direction. Similarly, during reverse scanning, the same function can be achieved.
[0345] The shift control module (Orbit Controller) shown in Figure 29 can be a decoder that can implement the logical truth tables shown in Tables 2 to 4. Figures 30a and 30b show the operating principle diagrams of the first decoding circuit in the shift control module (Orbit Controller) in Figure 29, and Figure 31 shows the operating principle diagram of the second decoding circuit in the shift control module (Orbit Controller) in Figure 29. The first decoding circuit can be a 3-wire to 8-wire decoder, and the second decoder circuit can be a temperature decoder circuit. The 3-wire to 8-wire decoder circuit shown in Figures 30a and 30b can implement the logical truth table functions shown in Table 2; the thermometer code decoder circuit shown in Figures 31a and 31b can implement the logical truth table functions shown in Tables 3 and 4.
