Background technology
(FPD) is of a great variety for present flat-panel screens, as LCD (LCD), organic electroluminescence optical display unit (OLED) and plasma scope (PDP) etc.Yet, no matter be which kind of flat-panel screens, the framework all similar of its display panel promptly disposes crisscross sweep trace (scan line) and data line (data line) on substrate (substrate), and each bar sweep trace and data line infall dispose a pixel (pixel).Whether pixel receives sweep signal via sweep trace and is enabled or conducting with decision, and receives data-signal with display image via data line when it is switched on.
The resolution of liquid crystal panel is high more, its required grid drive chip will be many more, and each bar sweep trace all needs to be provided with corresponding bonding pad (pad) to be connected to grid drive chip, and this not only needs considerable layout area, also can increase extra manufacturing cost simultaneously.Therefore,, be one of important development direction of present liquid crystal panel Driving technique how at the pin count of keeping the required grid drive chip of minimizing under the situation of equal resolution.
Fig. 1 is the local circuit synoptic diagram according to the liquid crystal panel of known technology.Local circuit 100 in the liquid crystal panel comprises that many data lines are (as DL1, DL2) and N bar sweep trace (as SEi, SOi, i wherein, N is a positive integer, i is the index value of sweep trace, and 0<i≤N/2), wherein strange sweep trace SOi is corresponding to strange pixel column 110, idol sweep trace SEi is corresponding to dual pixel row 120, wherein dual pixel row 120 comprise respectively that with strange pixel column 110 a plurality of pixel cells are (as 111,112,121 and 122), comprise transistor in each pixel cell, element such as liquid crystal capacitance and storage capacitors, pixel cell can adopt known dot structure, and the pixel cell among Fig. 1 is (as 111,112,121 and 122) only be schematic.
Is example with dual pixel row 120 with strange pixel column 110, dual pixel row 120 are coupled to even sweep trace SEi, strange pixel column 110 is coupled to strange sweep trace SOi, the other end of strange sweep trace SOi is coupled to the end of transistor M1, the other end of transistor M1 is coupled to next bar idol sweep trace SEi+1, and the grid of transistor M1 is coupled to even sweep trace SEi.When even sweep trace SEi and SEi+1 all enable (during logic high potential), strange pixel column 110 all can be opened with dual pixel row 120 so that data line (as DL1, DL2) writes pixel data extremely in the corresponding pixel cell (as 111,112).Then, when having only even sweep trace SEi to enable, then strange pixel column 110 is closed and remaining dual pixel row 120 are opened in case data line (as DL 1, DL 2) write pixel data to the pixel cell (as 121,122) of pixel column 120 to upgrade the pixel voltage in the pixel column 120.All the other strange sweep traces, even sweep trace can be analogized with the circuit structure of corresponding pixel cell, do not add at this and give unnecessary details.In addition, it should be noted that transistor M1, M2 among Fig. 1 can be formed at the fanout area 150 or the non-active zone (non-activearea) of liquid crystal panel.
The waveform of the sweep signal (being the sweep signal that gate drivers institute palpus is exported) that strange sweep trace SOi and even sweep trace SEi+1 receive as shown in Figure 2, Fig. 2 is the sweep signal oscillogram according to Fig. 1, wherein in the preceding semiperiod of second phase T2, idol sweep trace SEi and SEi+1 all enable, at this moment, strange pixel column 110 all can be opened with pixel column 120.Then, interim in the second half of second phase T2, even sweep trace SEi keeps and enables, and even sweep trace SEi+1 is then forbidden, and at this moment, only surplus pixel column 120 is opened, and utilizes above-mentioned sequential, just can noveler in regular turn pixel column 110 with dual pixel row 120 in pixel data.

In second phase T2, the pixel voltage on the pixel cell 121 only is subjected to even sweep trace SE iThe influence of negative edge 201 (please refer to Fig. 2), just descend via the voltage that capacitor C gs1 is caused, its feed-trough voltage (feed through voltage) Δ V1 can be expressed as follows:
ΔV 1 = ( Vgh - Vg 1 ) × Cgs 1 Cgs 1 + Clc 1 + Cst 1 . . . ( 1 )
Wherein Cgs1, Clc and the Cst1 in the following formula (1) represents corresponding equivalent capacitance value.
Pixel cell 111 can be subjected to even sweep trace SE iThe negative edge 201 and the SE of sweep signal I+1The influence of negative edge 202 of sweep signal, its feed-trough voltage (feed through voltage) Δ V2 can be expressed as follows:
ΔV 2 = ( Vgh - Vg 1 ) × Cgs 2 Cgs 2 + Clc 2 + Cst 2 × ( 1 + Cgsf Cgsf + n × CX ) . . . ( 2 )
Wherein, in the following formula (2), n represents the number of the pixel cell in the dual pixel row 120, and CX represents the value that Cgs2 connects with (Clc2+Cst2).
By above-mentioned formula (1) and (2) as can be known, pixel cell 111 is because the feed-trough voltage Δ V2 that sweep signal caused can be greater than pixel cell 121 because the feed-trough voltage Δ V1 that sweep signal caused.Therefore, in the driving process, pixel cell 111 can have different change in voltage because of sweep signal with pixel voltage on the pixel cell 121, and this can influence quality and stability of demonstration.
In addition, as even sweep trace SE iDuring forbidding, strange sweep trace SO iCan be in the state of float (floating), because many circuitry lines or electric capacity etc. are arranged near the grid of transistor M111, the grid voltage that can cause transistor M111 is subjected to these electrical couplings effects and drifts to common voltage Vcom and influence pixel voltage on the liquid crystal capacitance Clc2.

Referring to figs. 1 through Fig. 3, in order to reduce the feed-trough voltage Δ V2 of pixel cell 111, present embodiment is at strange sweep trace SO simultaneously iLast connection capacitor C st, as shown in Figure 4, Fig. 4 is the local circuit synoptic diagram according to the described liquid crystal panel of first embodiment of the invention.Wherein, capacitor C st and strange sweep trace SO iOn pixel cell 111 parallel connections, to increase the capacitance after its parallel connection.With reference to above-mentioned formula (2), after setting up capacitor C st, in the formula (2) ((Cgs+n * CX+Cst), promptly its numerical value becomes big to Cgs+n * CX) become, so feed-trough voltage Δ V2 will reduce and levels off to feed-trough voltage Δ V1.Because capacitor C st is parallel to strange sweep trace SO iOn all pixel cells (as 112), so capacitor C st has too and reduces strange sweep trace SO iOn the effect of feed-trough voltage of other pixel cell (as 112).
At other strange sweep trace (as SO I+1) on, present embodiment capacitor C st in parallel equally thereon is to reduce the influence of sweep signal to each bar (strange or idol) sweep trace.The other end of capacitor C st can be coupled to common voltage end Vcom or earth terminal, as long as can increase strange sweep trace SO iOn equivalent capacitance value get final product., be not repeated as the explanation of above-mentioned Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 about the remaining circuit of Fig. 4 and mode of operation thereof at this.In addition, owing to there is the capacitor C st of big capacitance to exist, therefore strange sweep trace more can not be subjected to the influence of other circuit and change its magnitude of voltage.
Because capacitor C st must be enough to influence strange sweep trace SO iGo up all pixel cells, therefore must have bigger capacitance, but bigger capacitance needs usually large tracts of land just can reach.Therefore, present embodiment designs this capacitor C st in the sandwich construction mode of sandwich, with reference to Fig. 5, Fig. 5 is the structural drawing according to the capacitor C st of present embodiment, wherein the first metal layer M1 and the second metal level M2 are the two ends of capacitor C st, transparency electrode ITO is positioned at the opposite side of the second metal level M2, and is connected to the first metal layer M1 via through hole 502.Because the second metal level M2 between transparency electrode ITO and the first metal layer M1, therefore can form bigger overlapping area to form bigger capacitance.Wherein, have passivating film 520 between the transparency electrode ITO and the second metal level M2, and have dielectric film 510 between the first metal layer M1 and the second metal level M1.Generally speaking, the material of passivating film (passivation film) 520 for example is a silicon dioxide (SiO2), and the material of gate insulating film (gate insulation film) 510 for example is a silicon nitride (SiNx).The structure of the capacitor C st of Fig. 5 can be formed by general liquid crystal panel technology, is not repeated at this.

With reference to Fig. 6 and Fig. 1, Fig. 6 is the sweep signal oscillogram according to second embodiment of the invention simultaneously, is applicable to the liquid crystal panel that drives as Fig. 1.Wherein, in second phase T2, make even sweep trace SE iThe magnitude of voltage of enable voltage 620 be Vgh2, and even sweep trace SE I+1The magnitude of voltage of enable voltage 610 be Vgh1, wherein Vgh2 is greater than Vgh1.Vgl is even sweep trace SE I+1Or even sweep trace SE iMagnitude of voltage during forbidding (or being called logic low potential).Because even sweep trace SE i, SE I+1The sweep signal waveform change, so in the known technology formula (1) and formula (2) can be revised as formula (3) respectively as follows with formula (4):
ΔV 1 = ( Vgh 2 - Vg 1 ) × Cgs 1 Cgs 1 + Clc 1 + Cst 1 . . . ( 3 )
ΔV 2 = ( Vgh 1 - Vg 1 ) × Cgs 2 Cgs 2 + Clc 2 + Cst 2 + ( Vgh 2 - Vg 1 ) × ( Cgsf Cgsf + n × CX ) × ( Cgs 2 Cgs 2 + Clc 2 + Cst 2 )
.......................(4)
Via above-mentioned formula (4) as can be known, when magnitude of voltage Vgh1 descended, the voltage Δ V2 that retracts that retracts on voltage Δ V1 and the pixel cell 111 on the pixel cell 121 can be comparatively approaching.When the pixel cell of scanning on the whole front panel, its sweep signal is as the even sweep trace SE among Fig. 6 iWith even sweep trace SE I+1Shown in, its sweep signal has time delay, or is called scan period, in regular turn with identical waveform scanning whole front panel zone.Via of the present invention open, can know pairing sweep signal waveform of all the other sweep traces and sequential thereof easily by inference those skilled in the art, be not repeated at this.
The 3rd embodiment
Fig. 7 is the circuit diagram according to the liquid crystal panel of third embodiment of the invention, and in Fig. 7, the local circuit 700 in the liquid crystal panel comprises that many data lines are (as DL 1, DL 2), control line SC i, strange sweep trace SO iAnd even sweep trace SE i, wherein i is the index value of sweep trace, if liquid crystal panel comprises N bar sweep trace, and 0<i≤N/2 then, i, N are all positive integer.Wherein, each bar control line is all corresponding to a strange sweep trace and an even sweep trace, with control line SC iBe example, its correspondence be strange sweep trace SO iWith even sweep trace SE i, strange sweep trace SO iIn order to scanning strange pixel column 710, and even sweep trace SEi is in order to scanning dual pixel row 720, and wherein strange pixel column 710 comprises a plurality of pixel cells (as 711,712,721,722) respectively with dual pixel row 720.Structure in the pixel cell is identical with known technology, promptly has structures such as liquid crystal capacitance, storage capacitors (not shown) and transistor, can adopt different dot structures according to different demands, is not repeated at this.
Transistor M701 is coupled to strange sweep trace SO iWith gated sweep line SC I+1Between, and the grid of transistor M701 couples i bar control line SL iTransistor M703 is coupled to even sweep trace SE iWith i+2 bar control line SC I+2Between, and the grid of transistor M703 couples i+1 bar control line SC I+1, all the other strange, even sweep traces and corresponding gated sweep line annexation can the rest may be inferred, be not repeated.
The scan mode of Fig. 7 can be with reference to Fig. 8, and Fig. 8 is the sweep signal oscillogram according to Fig. 7.Local circuit 700 in the liquid crystal panel comprises control line SC i, strange sweep trace SO iAnd even sweep trace SE iControl line SC iAt its scan period T sIn enable, at this moment, transistor M701 conducting, next bar control line SC I+1At scan period T sPreceding semiperiod T S1In enable to open strange sweep trace SO iNext, next bar control line SC again I+2At scan period T sLater half period T S2Enable with turn-on transistor M703 to open even sweep trace SE iSo, at scan period T sIn can finish and write pixel data to corresponding control line SC i Strange pixel column 710 and dual pixel row 720 on pixel cell (as 711,712,721,722).All the other even sweep traces can be analogized with the scan mode of strange sweep trace on the liquid crystal panel, repeat no more.
In other words, in the present embodiment, gate drivers only need drive all control lines and can all pixel cells be scanned (all strange sweep trace and the even sweep traces of promptly corresponding scanning), and control line SC iNumber half number of all sweep traces in the liquid crystal panel (comprise even sweep trace with strange sweep trace) is only arranged, can reduce driving the required gate drivers number of panel thus.In addition, it should be noted that strange sweep trace described in the foregoing description and even sweep trace mainly are to be used for distinguishing two adjacent sweep traces, the present invention is not exceeded with its title, and in another embodiment of the present invention, its placement position also can be exchanged.
Because control line SC iCan directly not go to the on-pixel unit, but with following two control line SC I+1, SC I+2Cooperatively interact, enable corresponding strange sweep trace SO with indirect mode iWith even sweep trace SE iTherefore, control line SC iOn sweep signal have two pulses 810,820, wherein pulse 810 is to be used for cooperating preceding two control line SC I-1, SC I-2, and pulse 820 is only and is used for opening corresponding to control line SC i Strange pixel column 710 and dual pixel row 720.
Because in the process that drives, strange pixel column 710 is identical with its circuit structure with the type of drive of dual pixel row 720, so the suffered feedthrough effect of its pixel cell (as 711 and 721) is consistent, just control line SC i, SC I+1, SC I+2On sweep signal identical to pixel cell 711 with 721 influence.Strange pixel column 710 is subjected to scan mode with pixel cell on the dual pixel row 720 and to influence the degree of its pixel voltage more consistent, so the quality that its picture shows is comparatively stable.And compared to known technology, present embodiment only need use the sweep signal of half can drive all pixel columns, does not resemble known technology, and each pixel column all needs a sweep signal to drive.By technological means of the present invention, can reduce the fanout area area of the number, number of scanning lines and the panel that drive the required grid drive chip of panel.
