Fig. 2 describe the gate drive unit circuit shown in Fig. 1 forward (Fig. 2 a) and oppositely (Fig. 2 b) scanning sequence figure, the forward scan of above-mentioned gate drive circuit unit (Fig. 2 a) and the course of work of reverse scan (Fig. 2 b) be divided into four-stage: preliminary filling stage (t 1), pull-up stage (t 2), drop-down stage (t 3, t 4) and low level maintenance stage (t 5).For this circuit unit, low level maintenance stage t 5starting point be t 4terminal, t 5terminal be then t in Fig. 2 of same sequential in the next frame time 1starting point.
Illustrate the course of work of this four-stage below:
Forward scan:
(1) pre-charging stage t 1
In pre-charging stage, forward scan control signal V dF, the first input signal V i1be high level, so the first transistor T 1open, the current potential of node Q rises gradually, when the current potential of node Q is higher than third transistor T 3threshold voltage V ttime, third transistor T 3be opened.Because the first clock signal V afor low level, so output signal V oremain low level.Precharge finish time, the current potential of node Q reaches V h-V t.
(2) pull-up stage (t 2)
During the pull-up stage, the first input signal V i1for low level, the first transistor T 1turn off, Q node suspends, third transistor T 3remain opening.Clock signal V abecome high level, and by third transistor T 3charging current is provided, output signal V to load orise to V gradually h.Due to third transistor T 3the raw electric capacity C of first end (such as drain) gSwith electric capacity C 1in have electric charge, the voltage at electric capacity two ends can not suddenly change, thus the current potential of node Q can along with output signal V orise simultaneously, finally reach 2V h-V t-V l.In the pull-up stage, third transistor T 3work in linear conducting district, so clock signal V ahigh level can be delivered to output interface V with losing without threshold value o.
(3) drop-down stage (t 3, t 4)
The drop-down stage comprises two continuous print processes, first process t 3to output interface V oelectric discharge.Clock signal V abecome low level, and third transistor T 3be held open state, so output signal V ocurrent potential by third transistor T 3pull down to low level.
Second process t in drop-down stage 4it is the electric discharge to node Q.Second input signal V i2become high level, reverse scan signal V dBfor low level, so transistor seconds T 2open, the stored charge of node Q is by transistor seconds T 2release, therefore the current potential of node Q reduces.When the current potential of node Q is reduced to V tbelow, third transistor T 3turn off.
The electric charge that node Q stores must at clock signal V alow period between thoroughly discharge, otherwise, third transistor T 3still opening is in, thus signal output interface V olow level state at clock signal V adestroyed under the high level effect of next cycle.
(4) low level maintenance stage (t 5)
At low level maintenance stage t 5, the 14 transistor T 14by Q bbe charged to high level, thus the 15 transistor T 15with the 16 transistor T 16open, by node Q and signal output node V obe stabilized in the first voltage source V sSlow level.In addition, the 18 transistor T 18also playing and maintaining Controlling vertex Q is low level effect, because the voltage jump on Controlling vertex Q is mainly by third transistor T 3gate-drain parasitic electric capacity C gDcause.And on Controlling vertex Q voltage jump amount mainly by third transistor T 3gate-drain parasitic electric capacity C gDdetermine with the ratio of electric capacity on Controlling vertex Q.As the first clock signal V awhen becoming high level, the 15 transistor T 15open, therefore Controlling vertex Q is coupled to signal output port V o.Notice signal output port V obe coupled to larger load capacitance C l, therefore stray capacitance C gDbe greatly reduced with the ratio of electric capacity on Controlling vertex Q, like this can current potential preferably on stability contorting node Q.
In the present embodiment, the pull-up stage (t of reverse scan 2), drop-down stage (t 3), low level maintenance stage (t 5) course of work of the course of work and forward scan is similar, no longer repeat here, difference is:
Preliminary filling stage t 1, in pre-charging stage, because reverse scan control signal V dBwith the 3rd input signal V i2for high level, so transistor seconds T 2open, the current potential of node Q rises gradually; When the current potential of node Q is higher than third transistor T 3threshold voltage V ttime, third transistor T 3be opened.Because the first clock signal V afor low level, so output signal V oremain low level.Precharge finish time, the current potential of node Q reaches V h-V t.
Drop-down stage t 4, forward scan signal V dFfor low level, the first input signal V i1become high level, so the first transistor T 1open, the stored charge of node Q is by the first transistor T 1release, therefore the current potential of node Q reduces.When the current potential of node Q is reduced to V tbelow, third transistor T 3turn off.
