Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated below with reference to examples, but the scope of the invention is not limited thereto:
example 1: referring to fig. 1, a pixel unit circuit applied to self-luminescence includes: the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3, the fourth transistor M4, the sample-and-hold capacitor C1, the data signal line IDATA, the switch control signal line smp_hld, the power supply line VDD, the common cathode power supply line VCOM of the light emitting device, and the light emitting device.
The power line VDD is connected with the source electrode of the first transistor M1 on the one hand and the upper polar plate of the sample-hold capacitor C1 on the other hand; the lower polar plate of the sampling hold capacitor C1 is respectively connected with the grid electrode of the first transistor M1, the source electrode of the second transistor M2 and the drain electrode of the third transistor M3;

The conventional current test scheme cannot meet the test requirements of the circuit structure described in embodiment 1, for the following reasons: for the current-type pixel cell circuit shown in fig. 1, it is divided into two operation phases: a data sampling phase and a holding phase.
In the sampling phase, the SAM_HLD signal is 0, so M2 and M3 are turned on, and M4 is turned off; since the input IDATA is a current signal, if an additional extraction port in the pixel unit circuit has a shunt effect on the input current IDATA, the actual output current of the pixel unit cannot be accurately tested.
In the hold phase, the sam_hld signal is 1, so M2, M3 are off, M4 is on; at this time, the current of M1 is completely maintained by the voltage held on the capacitor C1, and the holding time of the capacitor C1 often cannot meet the test requirement because the output current is required to have a longer settling time for the actual test.
