It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0039] Unless otherwise required by context, the term “comprise” and other forms of the term “comprise”, such as “comprises” and “comprising”, are used in an open, inclusive sense, that is, as “including, but not limited to”. In the description of the specification, the terms “one embodiment”, “some embodiments”, “exemplary embodiments”, “example”, “specific example” or “some examples” are intended to mean that a particular feature, structure, material, or characteristic included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. The illustrative representation of the above terms does not necessarily mean the same embodiment or example. In addition, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be included in any one or more embodiments or examples in any appropriate manner.

[0040] Hereinafter, the terms “first” and “second” are used only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined with “first” and “second” can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the meaning of “a plurality of” is two or more, unless otherwise specified.

[0041] In describing some embodiments, "coupled" and "connected," along with their derivatives, can be used. It should be understood that these terms are not intended as synonyms for each other. Rather, "connected" can be used to indicate that two or more elements are in direct physical or electrical contact with each other. "Coupled" can be used to indicate that two or more elements are in either physical or electrical contact with each other, even at a remote location from each other. The term "coupled" or "communicatively coupled" can also mean that two or more elements are not in direct contact with each other, but yet still co-operate or interact with each other. The embodiments disclosed herein are not necessarily limited to any particular recited embodiment.

[0042] "at least one of A, B, and C" has the same meaning as "at least one of A, B, or C" and includes the following combinations for A, B, and C: A only, B only, C only, a combination of A and B, a combination of A and C, a combination of B and C, and a combination of A, B, and C.

[0043] "at least one of A and / or B" includes the following three combinations: A only, B only, and a combination of A and B.

[0044] As used herein, the term "if' is, optionally, interpreted as meaning "when" or "while" or "in response to a determination" or "in response to a detection of," depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase "if determined" or "if detected [a stated condition or event]" is, optionally, interpreted as meaning "upon a determination" or "in response to a determination" or "upon a detection of [a stated condition or event]" or "in response to a detection of [a stated condition or event]," depending on the context.

[0045] The use of "adapted to" or "configured to," as used herein, means an open and inclusive language that does not exclude additional tasks or steps.

[0046] Additionally, the use of "based on" means an open and inclusive language that does not exclude additional conditions or values.

[0047] As used herein, "about," "approximately," or "circa" includes the recited value and the average value within an acceptable range of deviation from the stated value, as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art considering the measurement in question and the error in measuring the particular quantity (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system).

[0049] It will be understood that when a layer or element is referred to as being "on" another layer or substrate, it can be directly on the other layer or substrate, or intervening layers can also be present.

[0050] Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to cross-sectional and / or plan view illustrations that are idealized examples. In the interest of clarity, not all of the circular features can be shown in the drawings. It will be appreciated that in the development of any such actual implementation, numerous implementation-specific decisions can be made. These implementation-specific decisions can include, for example, manufacturing processes that vary from the idealized examples shown in the drawings, and / or variations in shapes and / or dimensions of the regions. Thus, the exemplary embodiments are not to be construed as limited to the shapes and / or dimensions shown in the drawings, but rather, are to be construed broadly to include any and all shapes and / or dimensions that fall within the scope of the exemplary embodiments. For example, the etched regions shown as rectangular will typically have curved features. Thus, the regions shown in the drawings are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to show the actual shapes of the regions of the devices, and are not intended to limit the scope of the exemplary embodiments.

[0051] At present, in the display driving of display devices, a multiplexing driving scheme has been developed. Each source channel of a driving chip drives two or more sub-pixel columns in a time-division manner, so as to reduce the number of source channels on the basis of improving the display resolution, and achieve the effects of improving the resolution and reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in some embodiments, the display panel includes a plurality of arrayed sub-pixels P and a plurality of data lines DT (DT1- DT4, DT1'- DT4') arranged along a vertical direction, and a plurality of gate lines GT (GT1, GT2) extending along a horizontal direction. Each data line DT is connected to a plurality of sub-pixels in a same column of sub-pixels, for inputting a data signal to the corresponding connected sub-pixels, and a column of sub-pixels includes sub-pixels of multiple colors, such as red sub-pixels and blue sub-pixels. Each gate line is connected to a plurality of sub-pixels in a same row of sub-pixels, for controlling the sub-pixels to be turned on to write the data signal when turned on. The plurality of data lines are divided into multiple groups, each group of data lines is connected to a data channel D of a driving chip Q through a fan-out line FT, and a control switch K is arranged on a line connected to the data channel of each data line. The control switch can be a demultiplexer, and the control switches connected to the plurality of data lines are opened in turn in a time-division driving manner to input the data signal to the sub-pixels connected to the corresponding data lines. The plurality of gate lines are scanned row by row to control a plurality of rows of sub-pixels to be turned on in turn to input the data signal transmitted by the data lines to the corresponding sub-pixels. For example, each group of data lines includes four data lines (DT1, DT1', DT2, DT2'), the four data lines are connected to a fan-out line, and a control switch is arranged between the fan-out line and each data line. The four control switches are controlled by control lines MUX1-MUX4 to be opened in turn to input the data signal to the corresponding data lines in turn, and the data line inputs the corresponding data signal to the sub-pixel when the sub-pixel is turned on.

[0053] Since the gamma voltages corresponding to sub-pixels of different colors are different, and a fan-out line FT is connected to a plurality of data lines DT, and the plurality of data lines are connected to sub-pixels of different colors, the initial data signal in the fan-out line jumps between different color gamma voltages to generate additional power consumption. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the fan-out line FT1 is responsible for driving the sub-pixels connected to the data lines DT1, DT1', DT2, and DT2', and the gamma voltage of the initial data signal transmitted by the fan-out line jumps between the red gamma voltage, the green gamma voltage, the blue gamma voltage, the green gamma voltage, and the red gamma voltage in turn. The number of jumps is frequent. Since each fan-out line needs to transmit the gamma voltages of the sub-pixels of multiple colors connected thereto, the number of jumps of the gamma voltage output by the data channel of the driving chip connected thereto is frequent. Frequent voltage jumps can cause high power consumption of the driving chip.

[0054] Based on this, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display panel, a display device, and a driving method of the display panel. By adjusting the line arrangement, different fan-out lines control different color gamma voltage ranges, the number of jumps of the initial data signal jumping between different color gamma voltages is reduced, power consumption is reduced, and the reliability of the display panel is improved.

[0055] The display panel, the display device and the driving method of the display panel provided by the present disclosure are introduced below.

[0057] The plurality of sub-pixels 10 includes first color sub-pixels 11, and the first color sub-pixels 11 include first type first color sub-pixels 111 and second type first color sub-pixels 112.

The data bus group 40 includes a first data bus 411 and a second data bus 412. For example, the first data bus 411 and the second data bus 412 transmit the initial data signal required by the green sub-pixel.

[0065] As shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 7A, one control switch group 50 corresponds to one data bus group 40, that is, one control switch group 50 corresponds to one display unit. The data bus group 40 is provided with the control switch 51 between each data line connected therewith. The control switch group 50 includes a first control switch K1 and a second control switch K2. The first data bus 411 is connected with the first control switch K1 between the two data lines DT2 and DT4 connected therewith, and the first data bus 411 is connected with the second control switch K2 between the two data lines DT2' and DT4' connected therewith.

[0066] In combination with FIG. 5B, the first data bus 411 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the first color sub-pixels (green sub-pixels), the second data bus 412 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the first color sub-pixels (green sub-pixels), and the first control switch K1 and the second control switch K2 are opened or closed in response to a control signal.

On the other hand, the plurality of sub-pixel arrays in the display unit 20 in the display panel 100 are arranged, each column of sub-pixels is connected to two data lines, and the two data lines are connected to different data buses. The connection of the above-described data lines to the corresponding sub-pixels can ensure that the line arrangement is more orderly, ensure the consistency of the line connection in the first sub-pixel column and other sub-pixel columns, and be conducive to the uniformity of the data signals received by each sub-pixel column, ensure the brightness consistency of the display unit 20, and improve the uniformity of the display.

[0068] In some embodiments, continuing to refer to FIG. 3A and FIG. 7A, the plurality of sub-pixels 10 further comprises second color sub-pixels 12 and third color sub-pixels 13; the display unit 20 further comprises at least one second sub-pixel column 220 and at least one third sub-pixel column 230 arranged in sequence along the row direction X, and the first sub-pixel column 210 is located between the second sub-pixel column 220 and the third sub-pixel column 230; the second sub-pixel column 220 comprises second color sub-pixels 12 and third color sub-pixels 13 arranged in sequence along the column direction Y, and the third sub-pixel column 230 comprises third color sub-pixels 13 and second color sub-pixels 12 arranged in sequence along the column direction Y. Wherein, one column of other sub-pixels is arranged between every two first sub-pixel columns, and the one column of other sub-pixels is the second sub-pixel column 220 or the third sub-pixel column 230.

[0069] For example, the second color sub-pixel 12 is a red sub-pixel, the third color sub-pixel 13 is a green sub-pixel, and the display unit 20 comprises four sub-pixel columns, which are the second sub-pixel column 220, the first type first sub-pixel column 2101, the third sub-pixel column 230, and the second type first sub-pixel column 2102 arranged in sequence, and the arrangement order of the second color sub-pixels 12 and the third color sub-pixels 13 in the second sub-pixel column 220 and the third sub-pixel column 230 is opposite.

[0070] The data bus group 40 further comprises a third data bus 413 and a fourth data bus 414, the third data bus 413 is connected with the second color sub-pixels 12 of the at least one second sub-pixel column 220 and the at least one third sub-pixel column 230 through at least two data lines DT, and the fourth data bus 414 is connected with the third color sub-pixels 13 of the at least one second sub-pixel column 220 and the at least one third sub-pixel column 230 through at least two data lines DT.

[0071] For example, the third data bus 413 is connected with the second color sub-pixels 12 of the second sub-pixel column 220 and the third sub-pixel column 230 through two data lines DT (data lines DT1 and DT3), and the third control switch K3 is connected between the third data bus 413 and the two data lines DT; and the fourth data bus 414 is connected with the third color sub-pixels 13 of the second sub-pixel column 220 and the third sub-pixel column 230 through two data lines DT (data lines DT1' and DT3'), and the fourth control switch K4 is connected between the fourth data bus 414 and the two data lines DT.

[0072] In combination with FIG. 3B, the first data bus 411 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the first color sub-pixels (green sub-pixels), the second data bus 412 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the first color sub-pixels (green sub-pixels), the third data bus 413 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the second color sub-pixels (red sub-pixels), the fourth data bus 414 transmits initial data signals required for the display of the third color sub-pixels (blue sub-pixels), and the first control switch K1, the second control switch K2, the third control switch K3, and the fourth control switch K4 are opened or closed in response to control signals. When the first control switch K1 is opened, the first data bus 411 transmits initial data signals to at least two data lines (data lines DT2 and DT4) through the first control switch K1, thereby controlling the first type of first color sub-pixels 111 in at least two first sub-pixel columns 210 connected to the data lines to display. When the second control switch K2 is opened, the second data bus 412 transmits initial data signals to at least two data lines (data lines DT2' and DT4') through the second control switch K2, thereby controlling the second type of first color sub-pixels 112 in at least two first sub-pixel columns 210 connected to the data lines to display. When the third control switch K3 is opened, the third data bus 413 transmits initial data signals to at least two data lines (data lines DT1 and DT3) through the third control switch K3, thereby controlling the second color sub-pixels 12 in at least two second sub-pixel columns 220 connected to the data lines to display. When the fourth control switch K4 is opened, the fourth data bus 414 transmits initial data signals to at least two data lines (data lines DT1' and DT3') through the fourth control switch K4, thereby controlling the third color sub-pixels 13 in at least two third sub-pixel columns 230 connected to the data lines to display.

[0073] For example, the control lines 61, 62, 63, and 64 sequentially input working levels, the control switches corresponding to the control lines are sequentially opened, and data signals are sequentially filled into the data lines connected to the control switches. For example, as shown in FIG. 3B, data signals are simultaneously filled into DT1 and DT2, then DT3' and DT4', then DT1' and DT2', and finally DT3 and DT4. When the gate lines GT1 and GT2 control the opening of the corresponding row of sub-pixels, the sub-pixels display under the control of the data signals. Thus, the display sequence of the two rows and four columns of sub-pixels in FIG. 3A is from top to bottom and from left to right, first the red sub-pixels (12) and the green sub-pixels (111) display, then the blue sub-pixels (13) and the green sub-pixels (112) display, then the blue sub-pixels (13) and the green sub-pixels (112) display, and finally the red sub-pixels (12) and the green sub-pixels (111) display.

[0074] It should be noted that the third data bus 413 is connected with the second color sub-pixel 12 through the corresponding data line DT, the fourth data bus 414 is connected with the third color sub-pixel 13 through the corresponding data line DT, for example, the second color sub-pixel 12 is a red sub-pixel, the third color sub-pixel 13 is a blue sub-pixel, the third data bus 413 and the fourth data bus 414 control the gamma voltage range of the second color sub-pixel 12 and the third color sub-pixel 13 respectively, and the third data bus 413 and the fourth data bus 414 are arranged in this way to correspond to control the threshold voltage compensation time and the voltage range of the corresponding color sub-pixel, so as to avoid additional power consumption caused by frequent jumps between the voltages of the red and blue sub-pixels. In combination with the foregoing content, the first data bus 411 is connected with the first color sub-pixel 111 of the first type through the corresponding data line DT, and the second data bus 412 is connected with the first color sub-pixel 112 of the second type through the corresponding data line DT, that is, the first data bus 411 and the second data bus 412 control the gamma voltage range of the green sub-pixel, that is, the number of times of jumps of the data voltage transmitted by the data bus 41 between the red, green and blue sub-pixels is reduced, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display panel, improving the quality and service life of the display panel, and further enhancing the picture display. In addition, since each column of sub-pixels is connected with two data lines, each data line controls the same type of sub-pixel in each column of sub-pixels, the arrangement of each data line and the connection with the data bus are consistent, and in combination with FIG. 5B, the jump frequency of the gamma voltage of the data signal transmitted by each data line is consistent, for example, the jump frequency of the red gamma voltage transmitted by the data line DT1 is consistent with the jump frequency of the green gamma voltage transmitted by the data line DT1', at least two adjacent sub-pixels in the row direction can display at the same time, which is beneficial to further improve the uniformity of the data signal received by each column of sub-pixels, reduce the difference between each data line, ensure the uniformity of the brightness of the display unit 20, and improve the uniformity of the display.
