Synchronous and asynchronous double grid TFT-OLED pixel-driving circuit and driving method thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to flat display field, be specifically related to a kind of synchronous and asynchronous double grid TFT-OLED pixel-driving circuit and driving method thereof.
Background technology
It is little that active matrix organic light-emitting diode (Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode) AMOLED has volume, structure is simple, from main light emission, brightness is high, and image quality is good, and visible angle is large, low in energy consumption, the advantages such as the response time is short, thus cause extensive concern, become the display technique of future generation replacing liquid crystal most probably.
Current, mainly contain amorphous silicon film transistor, polycrystalline SiTFT for driving the thin film transistor (TFT) TFT of AMOLED.Due to the characteristic that OLED electric current drives, amorphous silicon film transistor cannot provide enough drive currents because carrier mobility is low, and thus polycrystalline SiTFT becomes the first-selection of driving OLED.In prior art, the pixel-driving circuit of the 2T1C of two transistor T10 and T20 and electric capacity C is usually adopted to be used for driving OLED, as shown in Figure 1.But, on the one hand, because the threshold voltage of transistor T20 can drift about along with the working time, thus cause the luminescence of OLED unstable; On the other hand, due to the existence of the leakage current of transistor T10, make the spread of voltage of electric capacity C, thus the luminescence that result also in OLED is unstable.And, because the drift of the threshold voltage of the transistor T20 of each pixel is different, increase or reduce, making the non-uniform light between each pixel.Therefore, the pixel-driving circuit of traditional two transistors electric capacity 2T1C has been not suitable for the display of high-quality AMOLED.In order to realize the threshold voltage compensation of driving tube, the various novel circuit structure of research is needed to drive pixel cell better.
But, so far the pixel-driving circuit of most AMOLED design otherwise adopt complicated circuit structure for realizing good threshold voltage compensation, or adopt simple circuit structure and fail well to realize valve value compensation.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome defect and the deficiency of above-mentioned prior art, the invention provides a kind of synchronous and asynchronous double grid TFT-OLED pixel-driving circuit and driving method thereof.
One object of the present invention is to provide a kind of synchronous and asynchronous double grid TFT-OLED pixel-driving circuit.
Pixel-driving circuit of the present invention comprises: the first transistor, transistor seconds, memory capacitance and light emitting diode; Wherein, transistor seconds is asynchronous double-gated transistor;
One end ground connection of memory capacitance;
The drain electrode of the first transistor connects data line, and grid connects scan control line, and source electrode connects the ungrounded end of memory capacitance;
The drain electrode of transistor seconds is connected to the negative electrode of OLED and is connected with power lead by Organic Light Emitting Diode, and top grid connect the ungrounded end of memory capacitance, source ground, and bottom gate is connect pre-charge voltage and is connected with drain electrode by feedback line.
Transistor seconds is asynchronous double gate thin-film transistor, and namely top grid and bottom gate are by different Control of Voltage, and top grid connect the ungrounded end of memory capacitance, and bottom gate is connect pre-charge voltage and is connected with drain electrode by feedback line.Transistor seconds, as driving tube, drives organic light-emitting diode, and realizes valve value compensation by the feedback regulation effect of pre-charge voltage, makes the luminous homogeneous constant of each pixel.
Further, the first transistor of the present invention is synchronous double gate thin-film transistor, and namely top grid and bottom gate are by same electrical pressure-controlled, and double grid connects same scan control line.The first transistor, as switching tube, is written to the grid of transistor seconds for data voltage and is stored in memory capacitance and provides switch ways; Meanwhile, due to the double grid synchro control of synchronous double-gated transistor, efficiently reduce leakage current, make the voltage of memory capacitance keep stable.Utilize the feature that the leakage current of synchronous double-gated transistor is little, increase memory capacitance to the hold facility of data voltage, thus can reduce the size of required memory capacitance during non-gated, saves capacity area.
The first transistor and transistor seconds are polycrystalline SiTFT or zinc oxide thin-film transistor etc.
Another object of the present invention is the driving method providing a kind of synchronous and asynchronous double grid TFT-OLED pixel-driving circuit.
The driving method of pixel-driving circuit of the present invention comprises the following steps:
1) scanning and data voltage write phase: scan control line is high level, and data line is significant level, and the first transistor is conducting state, data voltage is written to the top grid of transistor seconds by the first transistor and remains to next frame renewal by memory capacitance;
2) the luminous and valve value compensation stage: scan control line is low level, data line is inactive level, the first transistor is off state, the voltage that memory capacitance keeps makes transistor seconds conducting, transistor seconds drives organic light-emitting diode, the gate source voltage of glow phase transistor seconds remains unchanged, thus it is constant until next frame image update to maintain Organic Light Emitting Diode brightness in a frame time.
When the threshold voltage shift of the transistor seconds as driving tube, drive current changes in the opposite direction, and the pre-charge voltage of transistor seconds changes in the same direction with threshold voltage, threshold voltage due to asynchronous double-gated transistor increases with pre-charge voltage and reduces, therefore the threshold voltage reverse excursion of transistor seconds, namely the drift of the threshold voltage of the transistor seconds as driving tube is restrained effectively by the feedback regulation effect of pre-charge voltage, achieve valve value compensation, thus maintain drive current and luminosity homogeneous constant.
Pixel-driving circuit of the present invention only introduces synchronous double-gate structure and an asynchronous double-gate structure on the basis of traditional 2T1C circuit, increase a pre-charge voltage and a feedback line, both the maintenance effect of memory capacitance in the non-gated stage to data voltage had been effectively increased, have effectively achieved again the threshold voltage compensation of driving transistors, thus ensure that homogeneity and the constancy of display lighting brightness.In other words, compared to major part for realizing data and keep and valve value compensation and 4T1C or the 4T2C pixel-driving circuit that adopts, save transistor, electric capacity and control line, enormously simplify circuit structure, thus improve aperture opening ratio and resolution and reduce and realize cost.
Beneficial effect of the present invention:
The synchronous and asynchronous double grid pixel-driven structure that the present invention proposes, realize data keep and valve value compensation with while keeping display brightness homogeneous constant, save the quantity of required transistor, electric capacity and control line, simplify circuit, save cost, reduce the area of unit pixel, thus can improve aperture opening ratio and display resolution.
