[technical field]
The present invention is the field relevant for display technique, and particularly relevant for a kind of driving method and a kind of display device that adopts the method for display panel.
[background technology]
In traditional row counter-rotating (rowinversion) Driving technique, be the sweep trace that is numbered odd number that drives in regular turn earlier in the display panel mostly, and then drive the sweep trace that is numbered even number in regular turn, and the upper substrate of display panel (being colored filter substrate) all adopts same common electric potential with infrabasal plate (being plurality of groups of substrates of thin-film transistor).Fig. 1 i.e. the signal sequential that adopts of Driving technique and the synoptic diagram of common electric potential sequential for this reason.In Fig. 1, indicate Row[1], Row[3] and Row[5] represent the first row picture element, the 3rd row picture element and the corresponding signal of the 5th row picture element respectively, indicate Row[2], Row[4] and Row[6] represent secondary series picture element, the 4th row picture element and the corresponding signal of the 6th row picture element respectively, sign Vcom then is expressed as common electric potential.
Yet such Driving technique can make the picture element row that are numbered odd number and the picture element row that are numbered even number that the inconsistent problem of brightness takes place, and also can make the problem of whole display panel generation brightness irregularities (being so-called Mura phenomenon).Above problem will be described in detail as follows.
The picture element equivalent electrical circuit of the conventional display panels of row counter-rotating Driving technique is adopted in explanation first.Fig. 2 has namely illustrated described picture element equivalent electrical circuit.Please refer to Fig. 2, picture element 206 mainly is made up of with picture element electric capacity 212 thin film transistor (TFT) 208, storage capacitors 210.The grid electric property coupling one scan line 202 of thin film transistor (TFT) 208, and a wherein source of thin film transistor (TFT) 208/drain electrode electric property coupling one data line 204.The wherein common electrode Vco_Cst of an end electric property coupling infrabasal plate of storage capacitors 210, and the wherein common electrode Vcom_Clc of an end electric property coupling upper substrate of picture element electric capacity 212.Common electrode Vcom_Cst and Vcom_Clc all are electrically coupled to same common electric potential.In addition, thin film transistor (TFT) 208, storage capacitors 210 are so-called pixel electrode with picture element electric capacity 212 three's phase electric property coupling places.
All picture elements of supposing conventional display panels all will show identical GTG, and the change in voltage of so arbitrary online data, and the change in voltage of common electric potential Vcom will be as shown in Figure 3.Fig. 3 is numbered the inconsistent problem of brightness of the picture element brightness that is listed as and the picture element row that are numbered even number of odd number in order to explanation.Please refer to Fig. 3, the picture of each picture all is divided into two time sections during showing, represents with sign II to indicate I respectively.N is natural number.In time section I, open the picture element row that are numbered odd number in regular turn, and in time section II, open the picture element row that are numbered even number in regular turn.In addition, the waveform table that indicates 302 indications is shown the change in voltage of common electric potential Vcom, the waveform table that indicates 304 indications is shown the change in voltage of arbitrary online data, the waveform table that indicates 306 indications is shown the change in voltage on arbitrary pixel electrode of the arbitrary picture element row that are numbered odd number, and the waveform table that indicates 308 indications is shown the change in voltage on arbitrary pixel electrode of the arbitrary picture element row that are numbered even number.Above-mentioned common electric potential Vcom has two position standards.When the voltage of online data during greater than the voltage of common electric potential Vcom, be loaded the picture element that shows data and can present positive polarity; And when the voltage of online data during less than the voltage of common electric potential Vcom, be loaded the picture element that shows data and can present negative polarity.
See waveform 306 described change in voltage modes now first.In the time of each picture section I, owing to only open the picture element row that are numbered odd number in regular turn, so the voltage level on each pixel electrode in these picture element row can be pulled to the voltage level of online data; And whenever by time section I entry time section II the time, because being numbered the picture element row of odd number all is closed, make each storage capacitors and each picture element electric capacity in these picture element row all present suspension joint (floating) state, and this moment, common electric potential Vcom changed the position standard, so the voltage level on each pixel electrode in these picture elements row can change along with the change of common electric potential Vcom.And by waveform 306 and waveform 304 as can be known, in the time of each picture section II, be numbered and all can have very big pressure reduction between each pixel electrode of picture element row of odd number and the corresponding data line, thereby cause thin film transistor (TFT) to leak electricity for a long time.
Next see waveform 308 described change in voltage modes.In the time of each picture section II, owing to only open the picture element row that are numbered even number in regular turn, so the voltage level on each pixel electrode in these picture element row can be pulled to the voltage level of online data; And whenever by time section I entry time section II the time, it is accurate that common electric potential Vcom just changes the position, and the voltage level on each pixel electrode during the feasible picture element that is numbered even number is listed as changes along with the change of common electric potential Vcom.Yet, because these picture elements row are unlocked immediately, make the voltage level on each pixel electrode in these picture elements row be pulled to the voltage level of online data immediately.Therefore, only be numbered between each pixel electrode of picture element row of even number and the corresponding data line and can change position accurate moment at common electric potential Vcom and have very big pressure reduction, so the electric leakage time of the thin film transistor (TFT) in these picture elements row is very short.
