Solution Overview

Problem

Display panels face operational issues due to abnormal voltage values at low-level and high-level terminals, affecting the proper functioning of light-emitting units, which are often caused by faulty connections and voltage fluctuations during signal transmission.

Innovation Solution

A display panel design incorporating a gate driving circuit with multiple stages of output terminals and a detection circuit featuring a voltage divider circuit and switching units, which outputs shift signals and determines voltage normalcy by counting pulse signals, allowing for real-time compensation of voltage values.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If voltage terminals are used to drive light-emitting units, then the display panel can operate, but voltage abnormalities occur causing operational failures

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational reliabilityVSAvoidvoltage abnormalities
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by detecting voltage abnormalities at the low-level and high-level terminals before they cause operational failures. The detection circuit monitors voltage levels in advance, allowing the system to identify and compensate for abnormal voltages before they disrupt light-emitting unit operation, thus preventing rather than merely responding to failures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Measurement precision

If detection circuit is added to monitor voltage, then voltage abnormalities can be detected, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevoltage detection precisionVSAvoidcircuit complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by designing the detection circuit to serve multiple functions: it detects voltage abnormalities at both low-level and high-level terminals, counts pulse signals to identify specific abnormal conditions, and provides information for compensation. This multi-functional approach achieves comprehensive voltage monitoring without proportionally increasing circuit complexity, as a single detection circuit handles multiple measurement and diagnostic tasks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
