As shown in connection with fig. 1 to 3, the two-line simultaneous scanning mode includes:
step 110, inputting a first start signal to the start signal line.
Here, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, a first start signal is input to the start signal line STV. The first enable signal may be low or high. Fig. 3 illustrates an exemplary case where the first enable signal is low.
Step 120, inputting the first clock signal to the first clock signal line and the third clock signal line.
As shown in fig. 1 and 3, the waveforms of the signals input to the first clock signal line CK1 and the third clock signal line CK3 are the same, and are the first clock signals.
Step 130, inputting the second clock signal to the second clock signal line and the fourth clock signal line.
As shown in fig. 1 and 3, the waveforms of the signals input to the second clock signal line CK2 and the fourth clock signal line CK4 are the same, and are both the second clock signals. Optionally, the periods of the first clock signal and the second clock signal are the same, and are both T1. The first level of the first clock signal and the first level of the second clock signal do not overlap in time, the first level being the same as the level of the first start signal, and illustratively the first level is a low level. Illustratively, the first clock signal is at a first level during a time period T11 and the second clock signal is at a first level during a time period T12. The first clock signal and the second clock signal are sequentially cyclically generated.
Step 140, the first shift register outputs the driving signal step by step.
Fig. 5 is a waveform diagram of signals at each end in a process of outputting a driving signal by the first shift register according to an embodiment of the present invention. In order to output the adjacent two stages of the first shift registers step by step, the clock signal input by the first clock signal input terminal CK of the first shift register of the previous stage is required to be identical to the clock signal input by the second clock signal input terminal XCK of the first shift register of the next stage, and the clock signal input by the second clock signal input terminal XCK of the first shift register of the previous stage is required to be identical to the clock signal input by the first clock signal input terminal CK of the first shift register of the next stage. In the adjacent two stages of first shift registers, the starting time of the output driving signals of the first shift register of the previous stage is earlier than the starting time of the output driving signals of the first shift register of the next stage. The first shift register 10 may output a driving signal when the clock signal input from the second clock signal input XCK is at the same level as the start signal. Fig. 3 illustrates a case where the driving signal is at a low level and the first start signal is at a low level, where S10-1 is a signal waveform of the driving signal output terminal or the trigger signal terminal of the first stage first shift register 10-1, and S10-2 is a signal waveform of the driving signal output terminal or the trigger signal terminal of the second stage first shift register 10-2. Illustratively, during the time period T12, the first stage first shift register 10-1 outputs the driving signal. In the period T11, the second stage first shift register 10-2 outputs a driving signal.
Step 150, the second shift register outputs driving signals step by step, wherein the q-th stage of the second shift register outputs driving signals at the same time when the q-th stage of the first shift register outputs driving signals, q is an integer, q is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N-1, and N is the number of the first shift registers.
In order to output the adjacent two stages of second shift registers step by step, the clock signal input by the first clock signal input terminal CK of the previous stage of second shift register is required to be identical to the clock signal input by the second clock signal input terminal XCK of the next stage of second shift register, and the clock signal input by the second clock signal input terminal XCK of the previous stage of second shift register is required to be identical to the clock signal input by the first clock signal input terminal CK of the next stage of second shift register. In the adjacent two stages of second shift registers, the starting time of the output driving signals of the previous stage of second shift registers is earlier than the starting time of the output driving signals of the next stage of second shift registers. The start time of the output driving signal of the q-th stage first shift register may be the same as the start time of the output driving signal of the q-th stage second shift register. The second shift register 20 may output a driving signal when the clock signal input from the second clock signal input XCK is at the same level as the start signal. As shown in fig. 3, S20-1 is a signal waveform of a driving signal output terminal or a trigger signal terminal of the first stage second shift register 20-1, and S20-2 is a signal waveform of a driving signal output terminal or a trigger signal terminal of the second stage second shift register 20-2. Illustratively, the first stage second shift register 20-1 outputs a driving signal at the same time as the first stage first shift register 10-1 outputs a driving signal during the period T12. In the period T11, the second stage second shift register 20-2 outputs the driving signal while the second stage first shift register 10-2 outputs the driving signal.
As shown in connection with fig. 1, 2 and 4, the single-line scan mode includes:
step 160, inputting a second start signal to the start signal line.
Here, as shown in fig. 1, 2, and 4, a second start signal is input to the start signal line STV. The second enable signal may be low or high. Fig. 4 illustrates a case where the second enable signal is low.
Step 170, inputting a third clock signal to the first clock signal line.
Here, as shown in fig. 1, 2, and 4, the third clock signal is input to the first clock signal line CK 1.
Step 180, inputting a fourth clock signal to the second clock signal line.
As shown in fig. 1, 2, and 4, the fourth clock signal is input to the second clock signal line CK 2.
Step 190, inputting a fifth clock signal to the third clock signal line.
As shown in fig. 1, 2, and 4, the fifth clock signal is input to the third clock signal line CK 3.
Step 200, inputting a sixth clock signal to the fourth clock signal line.
As shown in fig. 1, 2, and 4, the sixth clock signal is input to the fourth clock signal line CK 4. Optionally, the periods of the third clock signal, the fourth clock signal, the fifth clock signal and the sixth clock signal are the same, and are all T2. The second level of the third clock signal, the second level of the fifth clock signal, the second level of the fourth clock signal, and the second level of the sixth clock signal do not overlap in time, the second level being the same as the level of the second enable signal. Illustratively, the second level is a low level. Illustratively, the fourth clock signal is at the second level during a time period T21, the sixth clock signal is at the second level during a time period T22, the third clock signal is at the second level during a time period T23, and the fifth clock signal is at the second level during a time period T24. The second level of the third clock signal, the second level of the fifth clock signal, the second level of the fourth clock signal, and the second level of the sixth clock signal are sequentially cyclically generated.
Step 210, the first shift register outputs the driving signal step by step.
In the case where the driving signal is shown as low in fig. 4 and the second enable signal is shown as low in the example, the first stage first shift register 10-1 outputs the driving signal in the period T21. In the period T23, the second stage first shift register 10-2 outputs a driving signal.
Step 220, the second shift register outputs the driving signal step by step, wherein after the first shift register of the q-th stage outputs the driving signal, the second shift register of the q-th stage outputs the driving signal before the first shift register of the q+1-th stage outputs the driving signal.
The start time of the output driving signal of the q-th stage first shift register can be earlier than the start time of the output driving signal of the q-th stage second shift register. The start time of the output driving signal of the q+1th stage first shift register may be later than the start time of the output driving signal of the q-th stage second shift register. As shown in fig. 4, the first stage second shift register 20-1 outputs a driving signal during a period T22. In the period T24, the second stage second shift register 20-2 outputs a driving signal. After the first stage first shift register 10-1 outputs the driving signal, the first stage second shift register 20-1 outputs the driving signal before the second stage first shift register 10-2 outputs the driving signal.
In the technical scheme of the embodiment, in the dual-row simultaneous scanning mode, a first clock signal is input to a first clock signal line and a third clock signal line, a second clock signal is input to a second clock signal line and a fourth clock signal line, so that two rows of pixel units corresponding to driving signal lines connected with a q-th stage first shift register and a q-th stage second shift register are scanned at the same time, two rows of simultaneous scanning is realized, scanning time is reduced, and refreshing frequency is improved. In the single-line scanning mode, a third clock signal is input to the first clock signal line, a fourth clock signal is input to the second clock signal line, a fifth clock signal is input to the third clock signal line, and a sixth clock signal is input to the fourth clock signal line, so that the first shift register group and the second shift register group alternately output driving signals to realize progressive scanning, and resolution is improved.
