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 involve structures related to the embodiments of the present disclosure, and other structures can refer to the general design

[0100] 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.

[0101] 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.

[0102] 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 constituent elements with reference to the accompanying drawings. This is merely for the purpose of facilitating the description of this specification and simplifying 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 limiting the present disclosure. The positional relationships of constituent elements may be appropriately changed depending on the direction in which each constituent element is described. Therefore, the present disclosure is not limited to the words and phrases described in the specification and may be appropriately replaced according to the circumstances.

[0103] 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.

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.

[0105] 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.

[0107] 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."

[0108] The term "about" in the present disclosure refers to a numerical value that is not strictly defined and allows for process and measurement errors.

[0119] 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).

[0120] 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 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.

[0127] 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.

[0128] 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.

[0129] 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.

[0130] 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:

[0131] The first phase A1 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.

[0132] The second stage A2 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.

[0133] The third stage A3 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 off. The signal of the third scan signal line S3 is a high-level signal, and the fourth transistor T4 is continuously 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 turning on of the first transistor T1 causes the data voltage Vdata output by the data signal line DATA to be 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.

[0134] The fourth phase A4 can be referred to as the light-emitting phase. The signals on the second and third scan signal lines S2 and S3 are low-level signals, while the signal on the first scan signal line S1 is high-level. This turns on the second transistor T2, while the first and fourth transistors T1 and T4 are off. 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 and third transistors T2 and T3, driving the light-emitting device EL to emit light.

[0135] 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.

[0136] FIG5 b is a driving timing diagram of the pixel driving circuit shown in FIG4 b . As shown in FIG5 b , the operation process of the pixel driving circuit in FIG4 b may include a first stage A1 to a fourth stage A4. FIG5 b differs from FIG5 a in that the timing of the third scanning signal line S3 is different. In FIG4 a and FIG5 a , the fourth transistor T4 is an N-type transistor (high level turns on, low level turns off), while in FIG4 b and FIG5 b , the fourth transistor T4 is a P-type transistor (high level turns off, low level turns on).

[0137] The signals of the first scanning signal line S1, the second scanning signal line S2 and the third scanning signal line S3 in Figures 5a and 5b are usually provided by the gate driving circuit. The gate driving circuit is usually in a cascade connection relationship. There are often technical problems of signal input errors or initial signal input errors in the gate driving circuit between two adjacent levels, resulting in the pixel driving circuit not being able to work normally. Under normal circumstances, the displayed image will be displayed in the center. In practice, there is a technical problem of incomplete image display due to occlusion (such as mechanical occlusion). A shift control circuit can be set in the gate driving circuit to control the shift of the displayed image to avoid occlusion of the displayed image. In actual applications, there are problems such as high cost of the shift control circuit, complex circuit and large area occupied by the shift control circuit.

Each gate drive circuit may include a logic control circuit 10 and a target signal generating circuit 20. The logic control circuit 10 may include a logic control unit (for example, it may include at least one of a transmission gate, a logic control transistor, a NAND gate, and an inverter), which is mainly used for addressing, forward and reverse scanning control, etc. (10-3 is a reset control subcircuit, which is configured to reset the row drive enhancer 400).

In an exemplary embodiment, the gate drive circuit can be arranged in a 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.

[0171] Figure 6e is a schematic diagram of the structure of a target signal generating circuit 20 in a gate driver circuit according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0172] 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.

[0175] 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.

[0179] In an exemplary embodiment, a first input terminal of the first NAND gate 301 is connected to the second input terminal B_Qn of the logic operation circuit, a second input terminal of the first NAND gate 30 is connected to the third input terminal C_Qn of the logic operation circuit, an output terminal of the first NAND gate 301 is connected to the input terminal of the first inverter 401, an output terminal of the first inverter 401 is connected to the first input terminal of the first NOR gate 501, a second input terminal of the first NOR gate 501 is connected to the first input terminal IN_A_Qn_ of the logic operation circuit, an output terminal of the first NOR gate 501 is connected to the input terminal of the second inverter 402, an output terminal of the second inverter 402 is connected to the first input terminal of the second NOR gate 502, a second input terminal of the second NOR gate 502 is connected to the clock signal terminal CKV4 of the logic operation circuit, an output terminal of the second NOR gate 502 is connected to the input terminal of the fourth inverter 404, and an output terminal of the fourth inverter 404 is connected to the second input terminal of the two-way selector 510.

[0180] In an exemplary embodiment, the first operation circuit operates as follows: the first NAND gate 301 and the first inverter 401 perform an AND operation on the second input signal B_Qn at the second input terminal IN_B_Qn and the third input signal C_Qn at the third input terminal IN_C_Qn. 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.

[0181] FIG8 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, each of which is composed of six inverters, one NOR gate, one NAND gate, and one latch (D-Latch). As shown in FIG8 , 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.

[0182] 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.

[0183] 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.

[0184] As shown in FIG9a, 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.

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.

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.

[0186] As can be seen from Figures 9a and 9b, 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.

[0187] The D latch 520 in FIG8 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.

[0188] Figure 10 is a schematic diagram illustrating the operation principle 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.

[0189] 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.

[0190] 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.

[0194] FIG12 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 FIG12 , 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 FIG12 can be electrically connected to the reset control circuit 10-3 in FIG6 d and configured to receive a reset control signal from the reset control circuit 10-3. The reset control circuit 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.

[0195] 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.

[0196] 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).

[0197] 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.

[0198] In an exemplary embodiment, the row driver booster operates as follows:

[0199] 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.

[0200] 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.

[0201] 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).

[0202] 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).

[0203] 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.

[0204] 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.

[0205] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figure 13, which is a circuit schematic diagram of a shift register circuit provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, each gate drive circuit may include four triggers (DFF1 to DFF4), and the shift registers in multiple rows of gate drive circuits are cascaded. For example, the first output terminal OUT_A_Qn (which can be used as the output terminal of the inverted signal of the first shift signal, wherein the second output terminal OUT_A_Qn_ can be used as the output terminal of the first shift signal) of the n-th row gate drive circuit is connected to the input terminal IN_A_Dn+1 of the first trigger DFF1 of the n+1-th row gate drive circuit; the first output terminal OUT_A_Qn+1 of the first trigger DFF1 of the n+1-th row gate drive circuit is connected to the input terminal IN_A_Dn of the first trigger DFF1 of the n-th row gate drive circuit. Similarly, the first output terminal OUT_B_Qn (which can serve as the second shift signal output terminal) of the second flip-flop DFF2 of the gate driver circuit in the nth row is connected to the input terminal IN_B_Dn+1 (which can serve as the second signal input terminal) of the second flip-flop DFF2 of the gate driver circuit in the n+1th row; the first output terminal OUT_B_Qn+1 of the second flip-flop DFF2 of the gate driver circuit in the n+1th row is connected to the input terminal IN_B_Dn of the second flip-flop DFF2 of the gate driver circuit in the nth row. The first output terminal OUT_C_Qn (which can serve as the third shift signal output terminal) of the third flip-flop DFF3 of the gate driver circuit in the nth row is connected to the input terminal IN_C_Dn+1 (which can serve as the third signal input terminal) of the third flip-flop DFF3 of the gate driver circuit in the n+1th row; and the first output terminal OUT_C_Qn+1 of the third flip-flop DFF3 of the gate driver circuit in the n+1th row is connected to the input C_Dn of the third flip-flop DFF3 of the gate driver circuit in the nth row. The first output terminal OUT_D_Qn of the fourth trigger DFF4 of the gate driving circuit of the nth row is connected to the input terminal IN_D_Dn+1 of the fourth trigger DFF4 of the gate driving circuit of the n+1th row; the first output terminal OUT_D_Qn+1_ of the fourth trigger DFF4 of the gate driving circuit of the n+1th row is connected to the input terminal IN_D_Dn of the fourth trigger DFF4 of the gate driving circuit of the nth row.

[0206] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG13 , the logic control circuit 10 in the gate drive circuit may include a forward and reverse scan control circuit, and the forward and reverse scan control circuit may include a forward scan control circuit 10-1 and a reverse scan control circuit 10-2. Each forward and reverse scan control circuit may include a first forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD1 and a second forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD2. In the forward scan control circuit 10-1, the first forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD1 is connected to the first transmission signal terminal GSD_BW, and the second forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD2 is connected to the second transmission signal terminal GSD_FW. In the reverse scan control circuit 10-2, the first forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD1 is connected to the second transmission signal terminal GSD_FW, and the second forward and reverse scan control terminal GSD2 is connected to the second transmission signal terminal GSD_FW. The control terminal GSD2 is connected to the first transmission signal terminal GSD_BW, and the two cascaded triggers can be connected through the forward and reverse scan control circuit. Taking the first trigger as an example: the first output terminal OUT_A_Qn of the first trigger DFF1 of the n-th stage gate drive circuit is connected to the input terminal IN_A_Dn+1 of the first trigger DFF1 of the n+1-th stage gate drive circuit through the forward scan control circuit 10-1; the first output terminal OUT_A_Qn+1 of the first trigger DFF1 of the n+1-th stage gate drive circuit is connected to the input terminal IN_A_Dn (which can be used as the above-mentioned first signal input terminal) of the first trigger DFF1 of the n-th stage gate drive circuit through the reverse scan control circuit 10-2. In the case of forward scanning, the forward scanning control circuit 10-1 (i.e., the first forward and reverse scanning control circuit 10-1) is turned on and scans in the direction from the nth row to the n+1th row (i.e., the forward scanning control circuit 10-1 is turned on and the reverse scanning control circuit 10-2 is turned off by the signal input to the first forward and reverse scanning control terminal GSD1 and the second forward and reverse scanning control terminal GSD2). In the case of reverse scanning, the reverse scanning control circuit 10-2 (i.e., the second forward and reverse scanning control circuit 10-2) is turned on and scans in the direction from the n+1th row to the nth row (i.e., the forward scanning control circuit 10-1 is turned off and the reverse scanning control circuit 10-2 is turned on by the signal input to the first forward and reverse scanning control terminal GSD1 and the second forward and reverse scanning control terminal GSD2). In an exemplary embodiment, the forward and reverse scanning control circuits may be transmission gates.

[0207] In an exemplary embodiment, FIG13 is a diagram illustrating the operating principle of a shift register circuit according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The shift register circuit may be composed of a flip-flop (D Flip Flop) as shown in FIG14 . The flip-flop (which may be a D flip-flop) may include nine parts, namely three transmission gates (TG), four inverters (INVX), and two NAND gates (NAND). The inverters may also be referred to as NOT gates. As shown in FIG14 , the flip-flop may include a second transmission gate 202, a third transmission gate 203, a fourth transmission gate 204, a sixth NAND gate 306, a seventh NAND gate 307, a twelfth inverter 412, a thirteenth inverter 413, a fourteenth inverter 414, and a fifteenth inverter 415.

[0208] In an exemplary embodiment, an input terminal of the twelfth inverter 412 is connected to the clock signal terminal IN_CK of the shift register circuit, and an output terminal of the twelfth inverter 412 is connected to the first node CK_. An input terminal of the thirteenth inverter 413 is connected to the first node CK_, and an output terminal of the thirteenth inverter 413 is connected to the second node CK'. A first terminal of the second transmission gate 202 is connected to the input terminal IN_D of the shift register circuit, a second terminal of the second transmission gate 202 is connected to the output terminal of the fourteenth inverter 414 and the first input terminal of the sixth NAND gate 306, respectively, a high-level active enable terminal of the second transmission gate 202 is connected to the first node CK_, and a low-level active enable terminal of the second transmission gate 202 is connected to the second node CK'. A second input terminal of the sixth NAND gate 306 is connected to the reset terminal RN of the shift register circuit. An output terminal of the sixth NAND gate 306 is connected to the input terminal of the fourteenth inverter 414 and the first terminal of the third transmission gate 203, respectively. An active-high enable terminal of the fourteenth inverter 414 is connected to the second node CK′, and an active-low enable terminal of the fourteenth inverter 414 is connected to the first node CK_. A second terminal of the third transmission gate 203 is connected to the input terminal of the fifteenth inverter 415 and the first terminal of the fourth transmission gate 204, respectively. An active-high enable terminal of the third transmission gate 203 is connected to the second node CK′, and an active-low enable terminal of the third transmission gate 203 is connected to the first node CK_. The output end of the fifteenth inverter 415 is connected to the first input end of the seventh NAND gate 307 and the first output end OUT_Q of the shift register circuit, the second end of the fourth transmission gate 204 is respectively connected to the output end of the seventh NAND gate 307 and the second output end OUT_Q_ of the shift register circuit, the high-level effective enable end of the fourth transmission gate 204 is connected to the first node CK_, the low-level effective enable end of the fourth transmission gate 204 is connected to the second node CK', and the second input end of the seventh NAND gate 307 is connected to the reset end RN of the trigger.

[0209] 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. FIG15 shows an operational timing diagram of the trigger shown in FIG14 . In FIG15 , 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):

[0210] 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. The output signal Q_ at the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the flip-flop is high. In the second stage p2, the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is high, the input signal of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is low, the first node CK_ is low, the second node CK' is high, the second transmission gate 202 and the fourth transmission gate 204 are disconnected, and the third transmission gate 203 is turned on. 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.

[0211] The third stage p3: The working sequence is the same as the first stage p1 and will not be repeated here.

[0212] Phase 4 p4: The input signals of the clock signal terminal CK and the input signal of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger are both high, the first node CK_ is low, the second node CK' is high, the second transmission gate 202 and the fourth transmission gate 204 are disconnected, and the third transmission gate 203 is turned on. Since the second transmission gate 202 is disconnected, the high-level signal D of the input terminal IN_D cannot be transmitted to the node A through 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 of node D The high-level signal 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.

[0213] Fifth stage p5: The input signal at the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is low, the input signal at the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is high, 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 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. The output signal Q_ at the second output terminal OUT_Q_ of the trigger is high.

[0214] Phase 6 p6: The input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the flip-flop and the input signal D of the input terminal OUT_D are both high, the first node CK_ is low, the second node CK' is high, the second transmission gate 202 and the fourth transmission gate 204 are disconnected, and the third transmission gate 203 is turned on. 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.

[0215] Seventh stage p7: the input signal at the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is low, the input signal D at the input terminal IN_D of the trigger is high, 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 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.

[0216] The eighth stage p8: The working sequence is the same as that of the sixth stage p6, and will not be repeated here.

[0217] Ninth stage p9: the input signal of the clock signal terminal CK of the trigger is low, the input signal D of the input terminal IN_D of the trigger 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 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.

[0218] Combining the first stage p1 to the ninth stage p9, the working principle of the trigger is:

[0219] (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).

[0220] (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.

[0221] (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);

[0222] (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.

[0223] In an exemplary embodiment, the function of the first flip-flop DFF1 is to shift the first signal A_Dn input to the first signal input terminal IN_A_Dn (the shift clock signal is CKV1), the function of the second flip-flop DFF2 is to shift the second signal B_Dn input to the second signal input terminal IN_B_Dn (the shift clock signal is CKV2), the function of the third flip-flop DFF3 is to shift the third signal C_Dn input to the third signal input terminal IN_C_Dn (the shift clock signal is CKV3), and the function of the fourth flip-flop DFF4 is to shift the fourth signal D_Dn input to the fourth signal input terminal IN_D_Dn (the shift clock signal is CKV5), thereby providing an initial signal for the logic operation circuit 200.

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.

[0246] In an exemplary embodiment, S can be 8, 4S+2 can be 34, and 2S+1 can be 17. The 4S+2-level offset gate driver circuit can include a 2S+1 (17)-level first-type offset gate driver circuit G101 and a 2S+1 (17)-level second-type offset gate driver circuit G102.

As shown in FIG17 , the shift control circuit may include a standard 5-32 decoder 600, an accumulator, and 16 inverters (the sixteenth inverter 416 to the thirty-first inverter 431). The accumulator may include 16 cascade-connected half adders 700 (including the first half adder 701 to the sixteenth half adder 716). The accumulator and the inverter constitute part of the logic operation circuit of the shift control circuit, and the standard 5-32 decoder constitutes the part of the shift control circuit without the logic operation circuit. The shift control circuit may include 5 input terminals and 49 output terminals, wherein the 5 input terminals (the first input terminal A0 to the fifth input terminal A4) may include the input terminals of a standard 5-32 decoder, and the 49 output terminals may include 17 standard decoding result output terminals Y0 to Y16, 16 half adder sum output terminals S0 to S15, and 16 half adder carry output terminals C0 to C15.

[0248] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , the standard 5-32 decoder utilizes the lower 17 bits of the standard decoding result output terminals Y0 to Y16 to produce the 5-17 decoder shown in FIG17 . The upper 15 bits of the decoding result output terminals Y17 to Y31 of the 5-32 decoder can be expanded to include other functions.

[0250] Figure 19 shows the truth table of a 5-17 decoder. The 5-17 decoder includes 17 inputs. Each input generates a 17-bit output, with only one bit being 1, while the remaining 16 bits are all 0. This characteristic can be exploited to use the 1-bit output as a select signal for a row in the 17-stage first-type offset gate driver circuit G101 and the 17-stage second-type offset gate driver circuit G102 (Orbit), thereby turning on the starting row of the display. The remaining 16 rows are all turned off. Therefore, the signals output from the 17 standard decoding result output terminals can be used to select and control the starting row of the display in the 17-stage first-type offset gate driver circuit G101 and the 17-stage second-type offset gate driver circuit G102 (Orbit). That is, one stage can be selected from the 17-stage first-side offset shift register circuit P101 as the first-type initial shift register circuit, and one stage can be selected from the 17-stage second-side offset shift register circuit P102 as the second-type initial shift register circuit. In other words, one level is selected from the 17-level first-level offset gate driving circuit G101 as the first-level initial gate driving circuit, and one level is selected from the 2S+1-level second-level offset gate driving circuit G102 as the second-level initial gate driving circuit.

[0251] In an exemplary embodiment, the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 can be respectively used as 17 first-type initial row control terminals, and the inverting output terminal Y0_ of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the inverting output terminal Y16_ of the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 can be respectively used as 17 second-type initial row control terminals; the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15 can also be respectively connected to the second transmission terminals of the sixteen first-side offset transmission control circuits P10-1.

In an exemplary embodiment, the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 through the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 can be connected to the inverting output terminals of the corresponding standard decoding result output terminals via seventeen inverters, and the output terminals of the seventeen inverters can serve as the inverting output terminals Y0_ of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 through the inverting output terminals Y16_ of the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16.

[0252] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , the shift control circuit may further include a thirty-second inverter 432 , the input of which is electrically connected to the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 , and the output of which may serve as a second type initial row control terminal.

[0253] In an exemplary embodiment, the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the seventh standard decoding result output terminal Y7 can be respectively used as the eighth first initial row control terminal IN_Z8 to the first first initial row control terminal IN_Z1, the eighth standard decoding result output terminal Y8 can be used as the fifth initial row control terminal IN_Z0, and the ninth standard decoding result output terminal Y9 to the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 can be respectively used as the first third initial row control terminal IN_Z_1 to the eighth third initial row control terminal IN_Z_8; the inverting output terminal Y of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 The inverted output terminals Y7_ of the seventh standard decoding result output terminal Y0_ through the seventh standard decoding result output terminal Y7 can serve as the eighth second initial row control terminal IN_Z8_ through the first first initial row control terminal IN_Z1_, respectively. The inverted output terminal Y8_ of the eighth standard decoding result output terminal Y8 can serve as the sixth initial row control terminal IN_Z0_. The inverted output terminals Y9_ of the ninth standard decoding result output terminal Y9 through the inverted output terminals Y16_ of the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16 can serve as the first fourth initial row control terminal IN_Z1 through the eighth third initial row control terminal IN_Z8_, respectively. In an exemplary embodiment, the output terminals of the sixteenth inverter 416 through the thirty-second inverter 432 can serve as the inverted output terminals Y0_ of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 through the inverted output terminals Y16_ of the seventeenth standard decoding result output terminal Y16, respectively.

[0254] As shown in Figure 20, this is the truth table of the inverted output terminal Y0_ of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the inverted output terminal Y15_ of the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15. The sixteenth inverter 416 to the thirty-first inverter 431 respectively invert the results of the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15, and each output result includes a 16-bit output, and the 1-bit output originally having a value of 1 is changed to 0, and the 15-bit output originally having a value of 0 is changed to 1.

[0255] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , in the low-to-high-order direction, the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 is connected to the addend input terminal A of the first half adder 701 via the sixteenth inverter 416 (the first inverter in the shift control circuit), and the input value of the augend input terminal B of the first half adder 701 is always 1; the second standard decoding result output terminal Y1 to the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15 are connected to the augend input terminals B of the second half adders 702 to the sixteenth half adders 716 via the seventeenth inverter 417 (the second inverter in the shift control circuit) to the thirty-first inverter 431 (the sixteenth inverter in the shift control circuit), respectively. In the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15, the carry output terminal Cout of the previous stage is connected to the addend input terminal A of the half adder of the next stage, and 16 half adders are cascaded to form an accumulator.

[0256] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , the shift control circuit may include a high voltage clamp circuit 800 (Tie High), the output end of the high voltage clamp circuit 800 is connected to the addend input end B of the first half adder 701, and the value outputted by the output end of the high voltage clamp circuit 800 is always 1.

[0257] In an exemplary embodiment, the result of the half adder sum Sum (sum output terminal Si) is the cumulative sum without carry after the addition operation, and is accumulated in the direction from the first standard decoding result output terminal Y0 to the sixteenth standard decoding result output terminal Y15. According to the logic circuit structure, in the 16-bit output result, with the output result Yx=0 as the boundary, the sum output terminal Si=0 from Y0 to Yx, and the sum output terminal Si=1 from Yx+1 to Y15, as shown in Figure 21, which is the truth table of the sum output terminals of 16 half adders, and the values ​​of x and i are both integers.

[0258] In an exemplary embodiment, the half adder carry Cout (carry output terminal Ci) is the carry result after the addition operation, and is accumulated in the direction from Y0 to Y15. According to the logic circuit structure, with Yx=0 as the boundary, the sum output terminal Si=1 from Y0 to Yx-1, and Si=0 from Yx to Y15, as shown in Figure 22, which is the truth table of the carry output terminals of 16 half adders.

[0259] In an exemplary embodiment, the characteristics of the output results of the sum output terminals Si of the 16 half adders can be utilized to use Y0 to Y15 as reset signals for controlling the equally spaced shifting of the display. The reset signals are set to be active high, meaning that when the reset signal is 0, the corresponding display area can display data normally; otherwise, the display content is cleared, meaning no data is displayed. As shown in FIG23 , the sum output terminals Si of the 16 half adders can be configured to control the reset of the first-type initial gate driver circuit located away from the m-stage intermediate gate driver circuit. In this exemplary embodiment, in the direction from the 2S+1-stage first-type gate driver circuit G102 to the 2S+1-stage second-type gate driver circuit G102, the sum output terminals S0 of the first half adder 701 to the sum output terminals S16 of the 16th half adder 716 can serve as the first to 16th first-type reset control terminals, respectively.

[0260] In an exemplary embodiment, the characteristics of the output results of the carry output terminals Ci of the 16 half adders can be utilized to use Y0 to Y15 as reset signals for controlling the equally spaced shifting of the display. The reset signals are set to be active high, meaning that when the reset signal is 0, the corresponding display area can display data normally; otherwise, the display content is cleared, meaning no data is displayed. As shown in FIG24 , the carry output terminals Ci of the 16 half adders can be configured to control the reset of the second-type initial gate driver circuit located away from the m-stage intermediate gate driver circuit. In an exemplary embodiment, in the direction from the 2S+1-stage first-type gate driver circuit G102 to the 2S+1-stage second-type gate driver circuit G102, the carry output terminals C0 of the first half adder 701 to the carry output terminals C16 of the 16th half adder 716 can serve as the first to the 16th second-type reset control terminals, respectively.

[0261] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating principle diagram of the standard 5-17 decoder 600 in FIG17 may be shown in FIG25 . The lower 17 bits of the standard decoding result output terminals Y0 to Y16 of the standard 5-32 decoder are used, and the upper 15 bits of the standard decoding result output terminals can be expanded to other functions, which is equivalent to saving 15 AND gate logic circuits, that is, saving 180 MOS transistors, thereby saving hardware resources to a certain extent. As shown in FIG25 , the 5-17 decoder 600 may include 17 AND gate logic circuits, each of which includes five input terminals, and the five output terminals respectively correspond to the first input terminal A0 to the fifth input terminal A4 of the 5-17 decoder. Each input terminal of the AND gate logic circuit can be electrically connected to the corresponding input terminal or the inverting output terminal of the corresponding input terminal. The input terminals of the 17 AND gate logic circuits can respectively serve as the first decoding result output terminal Y0 to the seventeenth decoding result output terminal Y16. The shift control circuit in Figure 17 only adds 16 half adders and 16 inverters to the standard 5-17 decoder 600, reducing costs to a certain extent. Y0 to Y15 of the 17-bit standard decoding result output terminals Y0 to Y16 are multiplexed as input signals for the cutoff control function (stages Y0 to Y15 can each serve as inputs for 16 half adders), improving the utilization of the standard decoding result output terminals. Furthermore, the half adder and the number output terminal Si are used to control the reset of the first type of initial gate drive circuit on the side away from the m-stage intermediate gate drive circuit. The half adder's carry output terminal Ci is used to control the reset of the second type of initial gate drive circuit on the side away from the m-stage intermediate gate drive circuit. This saves 16 inverters, which translates to 32 MOSFETs.

[0262] In an exemplary embodiment, the shift control circuit can also be implemented using the structure shown in FIG26 . As shown in FIG26 , the shift control circuit can include a non-standard 5-9 decoder 901, a 5-8 decoder 902, a 3-7 thermometer decoder 903, and a 5-9 logic operation circuit 904. The non-standard 5-9 decoder 901 and 5-8 decoder 902 are configured to control the start row, while the 3-7 thermometer decoder 903 and 5-9 logic operation circuit 904 are configured to control the end row and reset the non-display area. FIG27 shows a schematic diagram of the working principle of the 5-9 decoder 901, FIG28 shows a schematic diagram of the working principle of the 5-8 decoder 902, and FIG29 shows a schematic diagram of the working principle of the 3-7 thermometer decoder 903 and the 5-9 logic operation circuit 904. As can be seen from Figures 26 to 29 , the input and output of the shift control circuit are assembled from multiple devices, while the input and output of the shift control circuit shown in Figure 17 are not assembled. The shift control circuits in Figures 26 to 29 require, in addition to the 3-7 thermometer decoder 903 and the 5-8 decoder 902, a 5-9 logic operation circuit 904 and a non-standard 5-9 decoder 901. In contrast, the shift control circuit in Figure 17 requires, in addition to a standard 5-32 decoder, only one accumulator (including 16 half adders) and 16 inverters. This shows that the shift control circuit shown in Figure 17 is structurally simpler than the shift control circuits shown in Figures 26 to 29 , with relatively fewer logic circuits outside of standard devices. This makes it suitable for display substrates with limited hardware resources and smaller areas, such as silicon-based OLED display substrates.

[0263] In an exemplary embodiment, the logic decoding circuit may further include at least one 3-wire-8-wire decoder, 2S+1 expansion circuits and at least one expansion input terminal, the number of output terminals of at least one 3-wire-8-wire decoder is 2S+1, the input terminal of the logic decoding circuit includes three input terminals of the 3-wire-8-wire decoder and at least one expansion input terminal, the input terminals of the 2S+1 expansion circuits are connected to the 2S+1 output terminals of the at least one 3-wire-8-wire decoder, and the output terminals of the 2S+1 expansion circuits serve as the 2S+1 output terminals of the logic decoding circuit respectively.

[0264] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figures 26 to 28 , S can take a value of 8.

The two expansion input terminals include a first expansion input terminal A3 and a second expansion input terminal A4. The three input terminals (A0 to A2) of one 3-line to 8-line decoder can serve as the first to third input terminals of the logic decoding circuit. The first expansion input terminal A3 serves as the fourth input terminal of the logic decoding circuit. The second expansion input terminal A4 can serve as the fifth input terminal of the logic decoding circuit. The inverting output terminal A0_ of the first input terminal to the inverting output terminal A2_ of the third input terminal serve as input terminals of another 3-line to 8-line decoder. In other words, the shift control circuit can include five input terminals (A0 to A4) and 17 output terminals.

[0265] In the exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figures 26 to 28, two 3-8 decoders include a first 3-8 decoder and a second 3-8 decoder.

The first 3-8 decoder, eight of the first expansion circuits KL1, one second expansion circuit KL2, and two expansion input terminals (A3 and A4) form a 5-9 decoder 901. The second 3-8 decoder, eight of the first expansion circuits KL1, and two expansion input terminals (A3 and A4) form a 5-8 decoder 902. In other words, combining two standard 3-8 decoders with seventeen expansion circuits KL to form a logic decoding circuit can fully utilize the decoder output states and reduce costs. A standard 3-line to 8-line decoder is generally less expensive than a standard 5-line to 32-line decoder. By expanding the output states of the 3-line to 8-line decoder, costs can be effectively reduced.

[0276] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in Figures 26 to 28, the 5-9 decoder 901 may include nine decoding output terminals (OUT_Z0 to OUT_Z8) and inverting output terminals of the nine decoding output terminals (OUT_Z0_ to OUT_Z8_), and the 5-8 decoder may include eight decoding output terminals (OUT_Z_1 to OUT_Z_8) and inverting output terminals of the eight decoding output terminals (OUT_Z_1_ to OUT_Z_8_); 2S+1 first-type initial row control terminals may include nine decoding output terminals in the 5-9 decoder and eight decoding output terminals in the 5-8 decoder; 2S+1 second-type initial row control terminals may include the inverting output terminals of the nine decoding output terminals in the 5-9 decoder and the inverting output terminals of the eight decoding output terminals in the 5-8 decoder.

[0310] In an exemplary embodiment, in a standard decoder, the number of input terminals is N, the number of output terminals is M, and the value of M is 2 to the power of N (i.e., M is 2 N ), for example, the above-mentioned standard 5-32 decoder has 5 input terminals (A0 to A4), and the number of output terminals M is 2 to the power of 5 (that is, the number of output terminals is 32, and the output terminals may include Y0 to Y31); the above-mentioned first 3-8 decoder and the second 3-8 decoder are standard 3-8 decoders, and the number of input terminals of the first 3-8 decoder and the second 3-8 decoder is 3 (A0 to A2), and the number of output terminals is 2 to the power of 3 (that is, the number of output terminals is 8), as shown in Figures 27 and 28, the output terminals of the first 3-8 decoder include Y0 to Y7, and the output terminals of the second 3-8 decoder include Y1 to Y8.

[0311] In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG27 , eight first expansion circuits KL1 and one second expansion circuit KL2 are added to a first 3-8 decoder to obtain a non-standard 5-9 decoder 901 as shown in FIG27 . That is, non-standard 5-9 decoder 901 is obtained by expanding the standard first 3-8 decoder. As shown in FIG28 , eight first expansion circuits KL1 are added to a second 3-8 decoder to obtain a non-standard 5-8 decoder 902 as shown in FIG28 . That is, non-standard 5-8 decoder 902 is obtained by expanding the standard second 3-8 decoder. Typically, the cost of a standard 3-to-8-line decoder is lower than that of a standard 5-to-32-line decoder or a 4-to-16-line decoder. Expanding the output terminals of a 3-to-8-line decoder effectively reduces costs. Furthermore, for shift control circuits requiring 17 decoder output terminals, a standard 4-to-16 decoder still lacks one output terminal. Adding an additional decoder or expansion circuit to the standard 4-to-16 decoder costs more than adding an expansion circuit to a standard 3-to-8 decoder. Therefore, adding expansion circuits to two standard 3-to-8 decoders can reduce costs. As shown in Figures 26 and 28, adding expansion circuit KL to two standard 3-to-8 decoders reduces costs while fully utilizing the output terminals of the standard 3-to-8 decoder, improving output utilization.
