Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 illustrates the synoptic diagram of display device 100 of the amorphous silicon of the embodiment of the invention.Display device 100 has amorphous silicon display panel 160, and display device 100 also comprises driving governor 110, temperature sensor 120, main gate pole driver 130, auxiliary gate driver 140 and commutation circuit 150.And in the present embodiment, main gate pole driver 130, auxiliary gate driver 140 and amorphous silicon display panel 160 all are configured on the identical amorphous silicon substrate 170.
In addition, main gate pole driver 130 and auxiliary gate driver 140 are coupled to amorphous silicon display panel 160.Illustrate that more more specifically main gate pole driver 130 and auxiliary gate driver 140 are a plurality of thin film transistor (TFT)s (not illustrating) that are coupled in the amorphous silicon display panel 160.Main gate pole driver 130 and auxiliary gate driver 140 also connect and are coupled to driving governor 110 to receive drive control signal DCTRL.150 of commutation circuits are coupled to temperature sensor 120, and are coupled between the path of auxiliary gate driver 140 reception drive control signal DCTRL.Commutation circuit 150 receives the switch-over control signal CS that temperature sensor 120 is produced, and comes conducting or disconnect the path that auxiliary gate driver 140 receives drive control signal DCTRL according to switch-over control signal CS.
Driving governor 110 is in order to produce drive control signal DCTRL.Drive control signal DCTRL is used for controlling main gate pole driver 130 or auxiliary gate driver 140 drives amorphous silicon display panel 160.Wherein, drive control signal DCTRL comprise frequency signal CLK, reverse frequency signal CLKB, initial pulse wave signal STP with gate drive voltage VGL.Frequency signal CLK and reverse frequency signal CLKB are used to provide to main gate pole driver 130 or the auxiliary gate driver 140 driving order with the gate sweep trace (gate line) that produces amorphous silicon display panel 160, initial pulse wave signal STP then will produce voltage source with the driving voltage that drives the thin film transistor (TFT) in the amorphous silicon display panel 160 for informing that the enabling signal that main gate pole driver 130 and/or auxiliary gate driver 140 begin to scan, gate drive voltage VGL then provide as main gate pole driver 130 and/or auxiliary gate driver 140.
Can learn by above-mentioned explanation, when main gate pole driver 130 or auxiliary gate driver 140 effectively received drive control signal DCTRL, main gate pole driver 130 and/or auxiliary gate driver 140 just can drive amorphous silicon display panel 160 according to drive control signal DCTRL.Opposite, do not receive the main gate pole driver 130 of drive control signal DCTRL and/or auxiliary gate driver 140 and just can't produce drive signal and drive amorphous silicon display panel 160.
In the present embodiment, temperature sensor 120 produces switch-over control signal CS according to the environment temperature of being detected, and controls commutation circuit 150 through switch-over control signal CS and come conducting or disconnect the path that auxiliary gate driver 140 receives drive control signal DCTRL.Illustrate that more specifically when temperature sensor 120 detects environment temperature when being lower than predefined critical value, the current value that the transistor of expression amorphous silicon can produce is on the low side.Therefore, commutation circuit 150 comes conducting auxiliary gate driver 140 to receive the path of drive control signal DCTRL according to switch-over control signal CS, and makes auxiliary gate driver 140 can effectively receive drive control signal DCTRL by this.
Thus, auxiliary gate driver 140 can be when environment temperature subcritical value, provide electric current to drive amorphous silicon display panel 160 jointly with main gate pole driver 130, and make the amorphous silicon display panel 160 can be not low excessively, and produce the not enough phenomenon of brightness because of environment temperature.
Relative, if environment temperature is when being not less than default critical value, expression main gate pole driver 130 at this moment enough drives amorphous silicon display panel 160.Therefore, commutation circuit 150 disconnects the path that auxiliary gate driver 140 receives drive control signal DCTRL according to switch-over control signal CS.Just only keep the action of main gate pole driver 130, and close the action of auxiliary gate driver 140.
