The working process is explained according to fig. 5-7, fig. 1 and fig. 3:
in the period of one frame, pixel charging only occurs in an overlap region delta T1 where two adjacent rows GATE in the TA section are simultaneously opened, in the TB section, in order to improve the stress drift problem caused by the fact that Tr is in the same state for a long time, a bias voltage resisting waveform (GB 1/2/3) that T1 and T2(T2 and T3) are alternately opened is set, and the low refreshing frequency ensures the low power consumption requirement of the product.
In addition, in the pixel holding area TB, the pulse widths of the bias signals GB1/GB2/GB3 are each Δ T2, and the delays between the bias signals are each Δ T2, i.e., T1 and T2(T2 and T3) overlap open during this period; the GATE signal GH/GL is set high in sections TB and TA respectively through the integrated circuit, T4 (T5, T6) and T7(T8 and T9) are respectively turned on, three GATE signals integrated by two rows of pixels are mutually staggered, namely the signals in the section TB are three different signals GB1/GB2/GB3, and the GA signal generated by GOA and the bias resisting signal GB are converged into a GATE driving signal GATE (N), wherein N =1, 2.
When the pixel is charged, the GATE signals GATE1, GATE2 and GATE3 turn on T1, T2 and T3 in sequence, and charge the upper pixel in the overlap region Δ T1 where T1 and T2 are simultaneously turned on, and similarly, charge the lower pixel in the overlap region Δ T1 where T2 and T3 are simultaneously turned on, that is, the pixel is completely charged in the front period of time when T2 is turned on, then T1 is turned off, the pixel is completely charged in the rear period of time when T2 is turned on, and then T2 is turned off; the charging of the upper pixel and the lower pixel can be independently controlled, but the self-overlapping capacitance of the three triodes and the W/L ratio are very important because of T2, T1 and T3 common source/drain.
The GATE and SOURCE driving waveforms are divided into a TA section and a TB section, wherein the TA section is a pixel updating area, and the TB section is a pixel maintaining area; the GOA signal works in a TA section, and is pulled down to be low level in a TB section; the bias reject signal is input in the TB segment.
The circuit source lines charge the upper and lower pixels, respectively, at different times simultaneously, the upper pixel when T1 and T2 are turned on simultaneously, the lower pixel when T2 and T3 are turned on simultaneously, and charging occurs only in the TA segment, and T1 and T2(T2 and T3) are turned on in an overlapping manner in the TB segment.
Due to the special design of three integrated TFTs (thin film transistors) of two rows of pixels under the condition of low refreshing frequency (1-20 Hz), the electric leakage of the TFTs is reduced, and the number of grid wire traces and the number of Trs are reduced; meanwhile, the combination of the GOA signal and the ULP signal is realized under the design of a GOA integrated circuit by matching with a special driving waveform.
For some reflective/semi-transparent low-power-consumption products, the problem of electric leakage under a low refreshing frequency can be reduced through a special design of three Tr, and the problem of pixel voltage maintenance under a low frequency is further increased; and integrating special gate drive signals by using an integration circuit at the periphery of the display area to realize the application of ULP GOA, thereby realizing the application of narrow-frame high-resolution low-power-consumption products.
The GOA circuit is designed on two sides, GOA signals are shared pairwise, N +2 GOA units are needed for a screen with N rows of pixels, and the number of the GOA units is almost the same as that of a common GOA screen.
Note: c1, C2C 3 and C4 are respectively the liquid crystal capacitance and the pixel capacitance of the liquid crystal display.

ULP: ultra Low Power, Low Power product

according to the invention, through a special three-Tr design, two rows of pixels are integrated, one GATE wiring and one Tr switch are reduced, a larger space is provided for increasing the capacitance of C2, and the integration of a grid circuit is facilitated; the combination of GOA and ULP is realized through the GOA integrated circuit, the narrow frame and low-power-consumption driving can be well combined together through the narrow frame and low-power-consumption design, and the requirements of low power consumption, narrow frame and the like are realized through the special driving circuit and the integrated circuit design.
