For above-mentioned purpose of the present invention, feature and advantage can be become apparent more, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the specific embodiment of the present invention is described in detail.
Set forth in the following description a lot of details so that fully understand the present invention, but the present invention can also adopt other to be different from alternate manner described here, implement, so the present invention has not been subject to the restriction of following public specific embodiment.
Embodiment mono-
The present embodiment provides a kind of band from the gate driver circuit that holds the display panel of touch controllable function, and as shown in Figure 3, described driving circuit comprises: driver element 11, for receiving a plurality of input signal Si n, generates and export first grid signal S1; Modulating unit 12, comprises control end 120, first input end 121, the second input end 122 and output terminal 123; Wherein, first input end 121 receives first grid signal S1, and the second input end 122 receives modulation signal Sa, control end 120 reception control signal Sc, output terminal 123 output second grid signal S2.Whether modulating unit 12 is selected by modulation signal Sc, first grid signal S1 to be modulated according to the control signal Sc receiving, and exports second grid signal S2, to reduce the described load from holding.
Wherein, first grid signal S1 is the original gate drive signal that the various signals that receive according to gate driver circuit generate, and in there is no the display panel of integrated touch controllable function, first grid signal S1 can be directly used in and drive each gate line.Second grid signal S2 can be consistent with the touching signals that described band provides from the display panel that holds touch controllable function, and " unanimously " described here comprises that these two signals have identical waveform, frequency, amplitude, phase place.Also can be understood as in described display panel is realized the time of described touch controllable function, any time, the voltage of these two signals (comprising voltage swing, voltage-phase etc.) is all identical.For example, in described display panel need to be realized the time of touch controllable function, as shown in Figure 4, the drive cycle of described gate line can be divided into first period T1 and second phase T2, in first period T1, the touch-control electrode of described band in the display panel that holds touch controllable function sends driving signal, and described touch-control electrode is recharged; In second phase T2, the touch-control electrode of described band in the display panel that holds touch controllable function receives detection signal, and described touch-control electrode discharges.For example, so corresponding, within described first period, second grid signal S2 can the waveform in first period T1, amplitude etc. be consistent with described touching signals Stp, are high level; In described second phase T2, also the waveform in second phase T2, amplitude etc. are consistent with described touching signals Stp for second grid signal S2, for example, be low level.
Like this, because the voltage on the grid in described display panel is consistent with the voltage on described touch-control electrode, therefore the two-stage electromotive force in described stray capacitance equates, so described stray capacitance can equivalence be considered as not existing, thereby reduced the load of self-capacitance, made described band better from the performance of display panel of holding touch controllable function.In addition, prior art is in order to reduce the load of self-capacitance, conventionally take increases one deck organic film between grid and touch-control electrode, and the embodiment of the present invention has reduced the impact of the stray capacitance of described display panel greatly, even if therefore additionally do not increase this layer of organic film, also it doesn't matter, thereby simplified process complexity.

Here, first utmost point of thin film transistor (TFT) 124 and second utmost point are respectively its source electrode and drain electrode, specifically which be source electrode which be drain electrode depend on that the type of thin film transistor (TFT) 124 is P type or N-type, at this, do not limit.Therefore, for N-type thin film transistor (TFT) (thin film transistor, TFT), when control signal Sc is high level, Sc is useful signal, and thin film transistor (TFT) 124 is opened, and modulation signal Sa can import the output terminal 123 to modulating unit 12 into by thin film transistor (TFT) 124; When control signal Sc is low level, Sc is invalid signals, and thin film transistor (TFT) 124 turn-offs, and modulation signal Sa cannot import the output terminal 123 to modulating unit 12 into.In like manner, for P type thin film transistor (TFT), when control signal Sc is low level, Sc is useful signal, and thin film transistor (TFT) 124 is opened, and modulation signal Sa can import the output terminal 123 to modulating unit 12 into by thin film transistor (TFT) 124; When control signal Sc is high level, Sc is invalid signals, and thin film transistor (TFT) 124 turn-offs, and modulation signal Sa cannot import the output terminal 123 to modulating unit 12 into.
When control signal Sc is invalid, thin film transistor (TFT) 124 turn-offs, now first grid signal S1 can be directly by output terminal 123 outputs of modulating unit 12 after entering the first input end 121 of modulating unit 12, become second grid signal S2, thereby drive described gate line, make described band can realize normally Presentation Function from the display panel that holds touch controllable function.When the control signal Sc of modulating unit 12 is effective, can directly modulation signal Sa be outputed to the output terminal 123 of modulating unit 12, as second grid signal S2, now because second grid signal S2 is consistent with the touching signals Stp on described touch-control electrode, therefore can be so that the stray capacitance Cjs equivalence in Fig. 2 be considered as not existing, thus the load of self-capacitance reduced.
Hence one can see that, and modulation signal Sa will output to the output terminal 123 of modulating unit 12 by thin film transistor (TFT) 124, with first grid signal S1 acting in conjunction, forms second grid signal S2.Therefore can be according to parameters such as the waveform of the second grid signal S2 that wants to obtain, frequency, amplitude, phase places, each parameters such as the waveform of setting modulation signal Sa, frequency, amplitude, phase place, to guarantee in any time of realizing touch controllable function.For example, realizing in the time of touch controllable function, in a certain moment, the output voltage of first grid signal S1 is-10V, and now need the voltage of the second grid signal S2 of output, is-6V, and so just can set the voltage that the modulation signal Sa in this moment exports is 4V.Certainly, be only to give an example with voltage signal here, in fact other electric signal such as current signal may be used to generate required second grid signal S2, at this, its specific works mode, numerical value etc. are not limited.

The present embodiment has provided a kind of optional structure of concrete modulating unit 12, to realize when described display panel need to be realized touch controllable function, to first grid signal, S1 modulates, and to export the second grid signal S2 suiting the requirements, thereby reduces the load of self-capacitance.Concrete effect is similar to the effect of embodiment bis-, can use for reference understanding.
Preferably, gating circuit 125 can be thin film transistor (TFT), as shown in Figure 6 b, the grid of thin film transistor (TFT) 125 is the control end 120 of modulating unit 12, first the second input end 122 of modulating unit 12 very of thin film transistor (TFT) 125, second utmost point of thin film transistor (TFT) 125 is coupled to a signal input part of adding circuit 126.The first grid signal S1 that adding circuit 126 receives by stack and from the modulation signal Sa of thin film transistor (TFT) 125, output second grid signal S2 is to output terminal 123, for in described display panel is realized the time of touch controllable function, give electric signal of corresponding grid, stray capacitance Cjs shown in Fig. 2 is equivalent to and does not exist, thereby reduce the load of self-capacitance.
