Vsg=Vs-Vg=VDD-(VDATA-|Vth|);
In the case, the electric current I of OLED is flowed throughOLEDFor:
IOLED=1/2 μ Cox·W/L·(Vsg-|Vth|)2=1/2 μ Cox·W/L·(VDD-VDATA)2
Wherein, μ is the electron mobility for driving TFT, CoxFor the capacitance between driving TFT gate and its channel, W/L is to drive The channel breadth length ratio of dynamic TFT, VDDFor drive in actual work TFT first voltage end VDD voltage, VDATAFor data-signal The voltage of VDATA.
From above formula as can be seen that flowing through the electric current I of light emitting diode OLEDOLEDOnly with first voltage end VDD and number It is believed that number VDATA is related, and it is unrelated with the threshold voltage of driving TFT (first film transistor M1).Even if the drive of two pixels The threshold voltage of dynamic TFT is different, and the electric current for flowing through part OLED of two pixels is also the same, the i.e. OLED of the two pixels Brightness be the same.
It is found through experiment, when first film transistor M1 is to drive the threshold voltage of thin film transistor (TFT) relative to -1.5V points When not drift ± 0.3V, the current changing rate for flowing through organic light emitting diode OLED is about 2.67%, flows through organic light emission two level The electric current of pipe OLED is stablized, and the light emission luminance of Organic Light Emitting Diode OLED is uniform, so as to improve the display effect of picture.
In addition, since the pixel circuit is using third thin film transistor (TFT) M3, the 4th thin film transistor (TFT) M4, the 5th film crystal The pattern of the gate series of pipe M5, advantageously reduce OLED initialization leakage current and driving TFT leakage current, a frame when The interior fluctuation for reducing first film transistor M1 grid voltages, that is, reduce the fluctuation for flowing through OLED current, further increase The consistency that screen body is shown.
