Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of display devices, in particular to a pixel circuit, a driving method thereof, a display device and electronic equipment.
Background
In recent years, an Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED) display has attracted more and more attention because it has many advantages of ultra-thin, high response speed, high contrast, high color saturation, and the like. The amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO) TFT has better uniformity, higher mobility and lower cost, and is beneficial to the mass production of AMOLED.
However, the AMOLED design must compensate for the degradation of the electrical characteristics of the a-IGZO TFT and the OLED. For example, the threshold voltage of the TFT driver may shift under the bias stress of the gate voltage, and the electrical stress at different positions may be different, which results in different threshold voltage variations at different pixel points. Furthermore, as the size of the AMOLED display increases, compensation for non-uniformity of mobility also needs to be considered. Meanwhile, the OLED is also degraded by long-term electrical stress, and the threshold voltage of the OLED is increased. In addition, the luminous efficiency of the OLED also decreases during long-term operation, which means that the luminance of the OLED decreases even if the current flowing through the OLED is constant. Therefore, it is also necessary to compensate for the increase in the threshold voltage of the OLED and the degradation in the luminous efficiency.
To solve these problems and improve the quality of the display image, various pixel compensation circuits have been proposed, and these circuits are roughly classified into two categories: a current-driven type pixel circuit and a voltage-driven type pixel circuit. The voltage-driven type has a faster charge/discharge speed than the current-driven type, and can satisfy the demand for large-area, high-resolution display. However, many voltage-type driving circuits have limited compensation functions, and generally only aim at threshold voltage compensation, and a plurality of control signal lines are introduced, so that the circuit has high requirements on external driving ICs, and layout wiring of pixels becomes complicated.
Chinese patent application No. cn201510166569.x entitled "a pixel circuit and driving method thereof and display device" discloses a pixel circuit having threshold voltage compensation and mobility difference compensation. The mobility compensation structure is only suitable for a driving tube adopting a double-gate transistor, and the basic principle that the driving tube compensates the threshold voltage of the driving tube according to the feedback of the feedback unit is as follows: when the threshold voltage of the driving tube T1 drifts under the action of the long-time electric stress, the threshold voltage of the driving tube T1 increases or decreases, so that the driving current generated by the driving tube T1 changes in the opposite direction, i.e. the driving current decreases or increases (as shown in formula 1). The voltage dropped on the feedback unit (resistor R) is IDAnd R is shown in the specification. Thus, VTHThe increase or decrease of (b) causes the voltage drop across the feedback unit (resistor R) to decrease or increase accordingly. The potential of the first pole and the second grid of the driving tube T1 is equal to VDD-IDR, therefore IDThis causes the potential of the first and second gates of the drive tube T1 to decrease or increase accordingly. That is, with VTHThe potentials of the first and second gates of the driving tube T1 increase or decrease accordingly. Furthermore, when the two gates of the double-gate transistor are controlled separately, the threshold voltage of the double-gate transistor varies according to the potential of either gateWhen the second gate potential of the driving tube T1 increases, the threshold voltage thereof decreases, and when the other electrode signals are the same, the current thereof increases; when the second gate potential of the driving transistor T1 decreases, the threshold voltage thereof increases, and the current thereof decreases when the other electrode signals are the same. Therefore, when the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T1 becomes larger due to the drift (the current of the light emitting element D decreases), the feedback of the feedback unit (the resistor R) makes the threshold voltage thereof smaller again, and the current increases (i.e., the current of the light emitting element D increases); conversely, when the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T1 becomes lower due to the drift (the current of the light emitting element D increases), the feedback of the resistor R increases the threshold voltage thereof and decreases the current (that is, the current of the light emitting element D decreases). Therefore, the circuit restrains the current non-uniformity of the driving tube T1 caused by the threshold voltage drift, and improves the uniformity of the brightness of the light-emitting device.
In the same compensation principle, the pixel circuit in the cn201510166569.x patent has a compensation effect on the mobility difference of the driving tube T1 in addition to the threshold voltage shift of the driving tube T1. As the mobility of the driving tube T1 becomes larger, the driving current generated by the driving tube T1 becomes larger, the voltage falling on the feedback unit (resistor R) becomes larger, the potentials of the first and second gates of the driving tube T1 decrease, the threshold voltage of the driving tube T1 becomes larger, thereby decreasing the driving current of the driving tube T1, and thus it is possible to suppress the variation of the driving current of the light emitting element D due to the mobility difference of the driving tube T1. This stabilizes the driving current supplied by the driving transistor T1 to the light emitting device D, thereby solving the problem of uneven light emission of the light emitting device D and improving the display quality.

The main design idea of the invention is as follows: the compensation is carried out as fully as possible by means of a timing control which is as simple as possible. Wherein the threshold voltage compensation discharges by connecting the driving tube into a diode; the mobility compensation effectively reduces the influence of mobility change on OLED current (driving tube saturation current) by partially discharging the gate end potential of the driving tube in a data coupling stage, and because the OLED current is determined by the gate source voltage of the driving tube on one hand and is also influenced by the mobility of the driving tube on the other hand, the influence of the mobility can be effectively reduced by controlling the gate source voltage.
The cn201510166569.x patent compensates for mobility utilization by: the increase in mobility causes an increase in the drive tube current, when the voltage drop (V) across the feedback unit is largeDD-VG2) Increase and drive the second grid end potential (V) of the tubeG2) And the threshold voltage of the driving tube is increased, so that the current is reduced, and negative feedback inhibition is realized.
The compensation principle of the invention is as follows: in the data input stage, the driving tube is conducted again, the increase of the mobility rate can cause the increase of the current of the driving tube, the discharge of the grid end of the driving tube is accelerated, and therefore the grid source voltage V of the driving tube is causedGSThe current is reduced, so that the influence of the change of the mobility on the current of the driving tube is effectively inhibited.

The working process of the pixel circuit provided by the embodiment includes four stages: the method comprises an initialization phase, a threshold voltage extraction phase, a data input phase and a light emitting phase. The following four stages are described in detail, and it should be understood that, in this embodiment, the operation process of the pixel circuit is divided into the above four stages only based on the most basic functions of the pixel circuit, and different technicians may also divide the operation process into other different operation stages according to different subjective understandings, so the division of the operation stages should not form a limitation to the present invention.
(1) An initialization stage:
the purpose is as follows: initializing high potential of a grid electrode potential of a driving transistor TD to meet the conduction requirement of the driving transistor TD and preparing for a threshold voltage extraction stage; the anode potential of the OLED (i.e., the light emitting element D) is initialized to a low potential, so that the OLED is turned off, and the panel contrast is increased.
First scanning signal line VSCAN1And a second scanning signal line VSCAN2When high level is input simultaneously, T1, T2, T3 and T4 are conducted, and V isDDTwo capacitors C are paired through T1 and T3 tubesS1And CS2Charging is carried out, and the potential of the first node A is raised to a high potential VHWhile the data signal line VDATAAt an initialization voltage VREFIs 0, it is transmitted to C through T2S2And the other end of the same. At this time CS1Is also discharged to V through T4L。
(2) A threshold voltage extraction stage:
the purpose is as follows: the diode connection is used to discharge the driving transistor TD, and the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD is extracted and stored in the storage capacitor CS1In this way, the influence of the threshold voltage can be eliminated in the light-emitting stage.
First scanning signal line VSCAN1When the high potential is changed into the low potential, the T1 tube is closed, at the moment, because the grid-source voltage at two ends of the driving transistor TD is greater than the threshold voltage, the TD is conducted, and the potential of the first node A is discharged to V through the TD and the T4 tubeTH_TD+VLAt this point the TD tube is closed.
(3) A data input stage:
the purpose is as follows: by means of a capacitor CS1And CS2The coupling voltage division couples a certain proportion of data voltage at the grid end of the driving transistor so as to enlarge the data input range and effectively improve the compensation effect.
First scanning signal line VSCAN1And a second scanning signal line VSCAN2T1 is turned off, T2, T3 and T4 are still turned on, and the voltage signal on the data signal line is changed from 0 to VDATAIs transmitted to CS2At this time due to CS1And CS2When the potential of the first node A is raised, the grid-source voltage of the TD tube is larger than the threshold voltage, the TD is turned on again, and the potential of the first node A is reduced by a part of potential delta Vμ_TDThe value becomes:
wherein,
in the above formula, T is the input time of the data voltage, and k is μ · COX·(W/L)_TDAs gain factors, mu and COXRespectively, mobility of a carrier of the TFT and a capacitance of a gate insulating layer, and W and L respectively represent a channel width and a length of the TFT. Then C isS1The voltage stored across is:
(4) a light emitting stage:
first scanning signal line VSCAN1And a second scanning signal line VSCAN2Is turned over simultaneously to become high level and low level, T2, T3 and T4 are turned off, and C is turned offS2Completely separated from the circuit, the OLED starts to charge through T1, TD, the anode potential of the OLED (i.e. the potential of the second node B) rises above the threshold voltage of the OLED, and the OLED turns on. Meanwhile, the grid potential (first node A) of the TD tube also becomes larger along with the rising of the point B, the voltage difference between the two points is kept unchanged, and when the voltage difference is stable, the current flowing through the OLED is the saturation current of the TD tube. The specific expression is as follows:
as can be seen from the above equation, since the OLED current is independent of the threshold voltages of the TFT and the OLED, the threshold shift of the TFT and the threshold degradation of the OLED can be compensated, and the non-uniformity of the mobility μ can be compensated to some extent, and the compensation effect is determined by T.
Fig. 2 is a timing chart of signals in the operation process of the pixel circuit in this embodiment.
The pixel circuit provided by the implementation has the following advantages:
(1) the pixel circuit only needs two control time sequences, so that the complexity and cost of a peripheral IC can be reduced, and the aperture opening ratio of the pixel can be effectively improved;
(2) in the non-light-emitting stage of the pixel circuit, the anode potential of the light-emitting element is always negative, so that the degradation of the light-emitting element can be inhibited, and the contrast of the panel can be increased because no current flows through the light-emitting element;
(3) by using the 2T1C structure formed by the switch tube and the coupling capacitor, partial discharge is carried out on data voltage information coupled to the gate terminal of the driving transistor in the data voltage input stage, and the nonuniformity of the mobility can be effectively compensated.
(4) The coupling capacitor is separated from the data driving circuit in the light-emitting stage, so that the effect of reducing the load capacitance on the data line can be achieved, and the influence of parasitic quantity is reduced.
(5) The pixel circuit realizes the function of mobility compensation on the premise of meeting threshold voltage compensation. In addition, the pixel circuit can be well applied to the field of micro display, the mobility compensation structure can effectively enlarge the data input range of the micro display pixel by controlling the discharge time due to the fact that coupling discharge is carried out on the input data voltage, and therefore the purpose of enlarging the data voltage range is achieved, the pixel circuit has high contrast and high aperture opening ratio, and can be applied to high-resolution and high-frame-rate display devices.

the potential of the second node B is:
assuming that the potential of the second node B remains unchanged after the coupling is raised, at this point CS1The voltage stored across is:
herein omit the pair Δ Vμ_TDThe principle of the method is the same as that of the first embodiment.
(4) A light emitting stage:
first scanning signal line VSCAN1And a second scanning signal line VSCAN2The potential is simultaneously reversed to become high level and low level respectively, T2 and T3 are closed, CS2Completely separated from the circuit, the OLED starts to charge up via T1, TD and the OLED anode potential (i.e. the potential of the second node B) rises. Meanwhile, the grid potential (first node a) of the TD tube also increases with the increase of the potential of the second node B, the voltage difference between the two nodes remains unchanged, and when the voltage difference is stable, the current flowing through the OLED is the saturation current of the TD tube. The specific expression is as follows:
from the above equation, since the OLED current is independent of the threshold voltages of the TFT and the OLED, the threshold shift of the TFT and the threshold degradation of the OLED can be compensated, and the non-uniformity of the mobility μ can be compensated to some extent, and the compensation effect is represented by Δ Vμ_TDDetermine, and Δ Vμ_TDAlso determined by the time T described above.
