Q [N]=VH-VTH_T2+ (VH-VL)
G [N]=VH
A [N]=VH-VTH_Tin1
B [N]=VL
C [N]=VH-VTH_Tin1-VTH_T2
In transition stage ST5, each signal is low voltage level VL.Accordingly, signal is driven G [N] is low voltage level VL.In one embodiment, each node voltage when transition stage ST5 is accurate Position can be expressed as follows:
Q [N]=VH-VTH_T2
G [N]=VL
A [N]=VH-VTH_Tin1
B [N]=VL
C [N]=VH-VTH_Tin1-VTH_T2
In drop-down stage ST6, the first pulldown signal XCK and driving signal G [N+1] of rear stage For high voltage level VH.Now, the second input switch Tin2 and the 4th switch T4 is switched on and makes The voltage quasi position of storage node NA is adjusted to low voltage level VL.The Tpd1 that pulls down switch is switched on And make to drive signal G [N] to be stably maintained at low voltage level VL.In one embodiment, respectively save Point voltage quasi position when drop-down stage ST6 can be expressed as follows:
Q [N]=VL
