In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, but rather should be construed as broadly as the present invention is capable of modification in various respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
The TFT-LCD display panel is one of the major products of the current flat panel display, and has become an important display platform in the modern information technology industry and video products. Referring to fig. 1, the main driving principle of the TFT-LCD display panel includes: the system mainboard connects data such as pixel signals, control signals and the like and a power supply with a connector on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) through wires, the data are processed by a Timing Controller (TCON) integrated Circuit on the PCB, and then are connected with a display area through the PCB and a Source-Chip on Film (S-COF) and a Gate-Chip on Film (G-COF), so that the display area obtains the required power supply and data to realize image display.
However, during the operation of the tft-lcd, the dc voltage supplied to the driving chip may exceed the withstand voltage of the driving chip, which may cause the driving chip to be burned or damaged.
In view of the above problems, embodiments of the present invention provide a driving circuit. Referring to fig. 2, the driving circuit includes a voltage step-down circuit 100 and a switching circuit 200.
The first input end of the voltage reduction circuit 100 is connected with the direct-current voltage input end, the second input end of the voltage reduction circuit 100 is connected with the standard voltage input end, and the output end of the voltage reduction circuit 100 is connected with the pull-up node. The step-down circuit 100 receives the dc voltage provided by the dc voltage input terminal through the first input terminal of the step-down circuit, receives the standard voltage provided by the standard voltage input terminal through the second input terminal of the step-down circuit, determines whether the dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, and performs step-down processing on the dc voltage when the dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage. The first input end of the switch circuit 200 is connected with the DC voltage input end and the first input end of the voltage reduction circuit 100, the second input end of the switch circuit 200 is connected with the second input end of the voltage reduction circuit 100 and the standard voltage input end, the switch circuit 200 receives the DC voltage after voltage reduction through the first input end of the switch circuit, receives the standard voltage through the second input end of the switch circuit, judges whether the DC voltage after voltage reduction is greater than the standard voltage, and breaks a loop between the output end of the drive circuit and the input end of the drive circuit when the DC voltage after voltage reduction is greater than the standard voltage
It can be understood that when the input dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the step-down circuit 100 performs step-down processing on the dc voltage, and if the voltage after the step-down processing is still greater than the standard voltage, the switch circuit 200 is used to open the loop between the output terminal of the driving circuit and the input terminal of the driving circuit, so that the driving circuit stops outputting the voltage. On one hand, the driving chip receiving the output voltage of the driving circuit can be prevented from being burned or damaged by the step-down of the step-down circuit 100 and the forced stopping of the power supply of the driving circuit by the switching circuit 200. On the other hand, if the dc voltage after the voltage reduction processing by the voltage reduction circuit 100 is smaller than the standard voltage, it is not necessary to disconnect the loop between the output terminal of the driving circuit and the input terminal of the driving circuit, and the driving circuit is guaranteed to operate normally, thereby reducing the number of times of disconnecting the driving circuit due to the overhigh input dc voltage.
In some embodiments, the voltage-reducing circuit 100 includes a first determining branch 110 and a dc voltage-reducing branch 120.
The first input end of the first judging branch 110 is connected to the dc voltage input end, and the second input end of the first judging branch 110 is connected to the standard voltage input end, and is configured to receive the dc voltage and the standard voltage, and generate a first judging signal according to the dc voltage and the standard voltage. The first input end of the dc voltage reduction branch 120 is connected to the output end of the first determining branch 110, the second input unit of the dc voltage reduction branch 120 is connected to the dc voltage input end and the first input end of the first determining branch 110, the output end of the dc voltage reduction branch 120 is connected to the pull-up node, and the dc voltage reduction branch 120 is configured to receive the first determining signal and the dc voltage, and perform voltage reduction processing on the dc voltage according to the first determining signal.
It is understood that the first determining branch 110 receives the dc voltage and the standard voltage, generates a first determining signal according to the dc voltage and the standard voltage, and outputs the first determining signal to the dc voltage dropping branch 120. The dc voltage dropping branch 120 performs voltage dropping processing on the dc voltage according to the received first determination signal. In this embodiment, when the dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the first determining branch 110 outputs a first determining signal with a high level to the dc voltage dropping branch 120, and the dc voltage dropping branch 120 provides the dc voltage for the load in the dc voltage dropping branch 120 according to the first determining signal with the high level, so as to reduce the voltage in the driving circuit through the self-consumption of the load, thereby achieving the purpose of performing voltage dropping processing on the input dc voltage.
In some embodiments, the switching circuit 200 includes a first switching branch 210, a second determining branch 220, and a second switching branch 230.
A first input terminal of the first switching branch 210 is connected to the pull-up node, and a second input terminal of the first switching branch is connected to the dc voltage input terminal, the first input terminal of the first determining circuit, and the first input terminal of the dc step-down branch 120.

The first input end of the second switching branch 230 is connected to the dc voltage input end, the first input end of the first determining circuit, the first input end of the dc step-down branch 120, and the second input end of the second determining circuit, the second input end of the second switching branch 230 is connected to the output end of the second determining branch 220, and the output end of the second switching branch 230 is connected to the output end of the driving circuit, and is configured to receive the second determining signal and disconnect the connection between the input end of the driving circuit and the output end of the driving circuit according to the determining signal.
In some embodiments, the first determining branch 110 includes a first comparator D1, a positive input terminal of the first comparator D1 is connected to the dc voltage input terminal, a negative input terminal of the first comparator D1 is connected to the standard voltage input terminal, and the first comparator D1 is configured to receive the dc voltage and the standard voltage, and generate the first determining signal according to the dc voltage and the standard voltage.
It is understood that, in this embodiment, the first comparator D1 receives the dc voltage through its own positive input terminal, and receives the standard voltage through its own negative input terminal. When the dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the first comparator D1 generates and outputs a first determination signal of a high level. When the dc voltage is less than or equal to the standard voltage, the first comparator D1 generates and outputs a first determination signal of a low level.
In some embodiments, the dc step-down branch 120 includes a first switch M1 and a first resistor R1.
The gate of the first switch transistor M1 is connected to the signal output terminal of the first comparator D1, the drain of the first switch transistor M1 is connected to the dc voltage input terminal and the positive input terminal of the first comparator D1, and the source of the first switch transistor M1 is connected to the first input terminal of the first switch branch 210.
One end of the first resistor R1 is connected to the source of the first switch transistor M1 and the first input end of the first switch branch 210, and the other end of the first resistor R1 is grounded.
It can be understood that, when the dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the first comparator D1 generates and outputs a first determination signal with a high level, at this time, the gate of the first switch tube M1 is at a high level, the first switch tube M1 is turned on, the dc voltage is provided to the first resistor R1 through the first switch tube M1, and the dc voltage is subjected to a step-down process through the first resistor R1, so as to obtain a step-down processed dc voltage. When the dc voltage is less than or equal to the standard voltage, the first comparator D1 generates and outputs a first determination signal with a low level, at this time, the gate of the first switch transistor M1 is at a low level, the first switch transistor M1 is turned off, and the dc step-down branch 120 does not operate.
In some embodiments, the first switching branch 210 includes a second switching tube M2 and a capacitor C.
A gate of the second switching tube M2 is connected to the drain of the first switching tube M1 and the first resistor R1, a drain of the second switching tube M2 is connected to the dc voltage input terminal, the positive input terminal of the first comparator D1 and the drain of the first switching tube M1, and a source of the second switching tube M2 is connected to the first input terminal of the second determining branch 220.
One end of the capacitor C is connected to the drain of the first switch transistor M1, the first resistor R1, and the gate of the second switch transistor M2, and the other end of the capacitor C is grounded.
It can be understood that after the first switch tube M1 is turned on, the capacitor C is charged through the first switch tube, but due to the capacitive reactance of the capacitor C, the pull-up node still maintains a low voltage, and during the process of charging the capacitor C, as the electric quantity of the capacitor C increases gradually, the voltage at two ends of the capacitor C also increases gradually, that is, the voltage at the pull-up node increases gradually, and when the capacitor C is charged completely, the voltage at the pull-up node is equal to the reduced dc voltage, the second switch tube M2 is turned on, and the reduced dc voltage is provided to the second determining branch 220 through the second switch tube M2.
In some embodiments, the second determining branch 220 includes a second comparator D2, a positive input terminal of the second comparator D2 is connected to the drain of the second switching tube M2, a negative input terminal of the second comparator D2 is connected to the negative input terminal of the first comparator D1 and the reference voltage input terminal, and a signal output terminal of the second comparator D2 is connected to the second input terminal of the second switching branch 230.
It is understood that the positive input terminal of the second comparator D2 receives the stepped-down dc voltage inputted through the second switch tube M2, and the negative input terminal of the second comparator D2 receives the standard voltage. And when the reduced direct current voltage is greater than the standard voltage, generating and outputting a second judgment signal with a high level. And when the reduced direct current voltage is less than or equal to the standard voltage, generating and outputting a second judgment signal with a low level.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the second switching branch 230 includes a third switching tube M3, a gate of the third switching tube M3 is connected to the signal output terminal of the second comparator D2, a source of the third switching tube M3 is connected to the dc voltage input terminal, the positive input terminal of the first comparator D1, the drain of the first switching tube M1 and the drain of the second switching tube M2, and a source of the third switching tube M3 is connected to the output terminal of the driving circuit.
It can be understood that, if the stepped-down dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the gate of the third switching tube M3 receives the second determination signal with a high level output by the second comparator D2, the gate of the third switch is at a high level, and the third switching tube M3 is turned off, so as to break a loop between the input terminal of the driving circuit and the output terminal of the driving circuit, and terminate the voltage output by the driving circuit, thereby preventing a driving chip powered by the driving circuit from being burned out due to an excessive voltage. If the reduced dc voltage is less than or equal to the standard voltage, the gate of the third switch receives the second determination signal of low level output by the second comparator D2, the gate of the third switch M3 is at low level, the third switch M3 is kept on, and the driving circuit provides the reduced dc voltage for the chip connected to the driving circuit.
In some embodiments, the first switching transistor M1, the second switching transistor M2, and the third switching transistor M3 are all fets or triodes. In addition, the first switch tube M1, the second switch tube M2, and the third switch tube M3 may also partially adopt field effect transistors, and partially adopt triodes.
In some embodiments, the first switch tube M1 and the second switch tube M2 are N-type switch tubes, and the third switch tube M3 is P-type switch tube.
It is understood that the first switch tube M1 and the second switch tube M2 are both N-type fets, and the third switch tube M3 is a P-type fet. For an N-type field effect transistor, when the gate is at a high level, the N-type field effect transistor is turned on, and when the gate is at a low level, the N-type field effect transistor is turned off. For a P-type field effect transistor, when the grid electrode of the P-type field effect transistor is at a high level, the P-type field effect transistor is disconnected, and when the grid electrode of the P-type field effect transistor is at a low level, the P-type field effect transistor is connected. For the first comparator D1, when the voltage input to the positive input terminal thereof is greater than the voltage input to the negative input terminal thereof, the first determination signal generated and output by the first comparator D1 is at a high level, and when the voltage input to the positive input terminal thereof is less than or equal to the voltage input to the negative input terminal thereof, the first determination signal generated and output by the first comparator D1 is at a low level. The operation principle of the second comparator D2 is similar to that of the first comparator D1, and thus the detailed description thereof is omitted.
In this embodiment, when the driving circuit normally operates, the dc voltage input by the input end of the driving voltage is a constant dc voltage, and the voltage value of the dc voltage is Vin (usually 12V). The standard voltage has a voltage value of V1, generally the voltage value of V1 is equal to the withstand voltage value of a driving chip, and Vin < V1. At this time, the first determination signal output by the first comparator D1 is a low level signal, the first switch tube M1 is turned off, the source of the first switch tube M1 is grounded through the first resistor R1, the pull-up node connected to the first switch tube M1 is at a low level, the gate of the second switch tube M2 is also at a low level, the second switch tube M2 is turned off, the low level second determination signal output by the second comparator D2, the gate of the third switch tube M3 is at a low level, the third switch tube M3 is turned on, and the driving circuit outputs the dc voltage.
When the voltage at the input end is increased due to the abnormal input end and exceeds the voltage withstanding value on the driving chip, namely Vin is greater than V1, the first judgment signal output by the first comparator D1 is a high-level signal, the first switching tube M1 is conducted, and discharge is carried out through the first resistor R1, so that the input direct-current voltage is reduced, and if the voltage provided by the input end of the driving circuit is U, the power consumption of the first resistor R1 is U2and/R1. At this time, the stepped-down dc voltage output by the output terminal of the driving circuit is smaller than the dc voltage input by the input terminal of the driving circuit.
Due to the existence of the capacitor C, after the first switch tube M1 is turned on, the voltage of the pull-up node is still kept at a low level, the second switch tube M2 is kept off, the third switch tube M3 is kept on, and the capacitor C is charged through the first switch tube. After the capacitor C is charged, the voltage of the pull-up node is equal to the stepped-down dc voltage, the gate of the second switch transistor M2 is at a high level, the second switch transistor M2 is turned on, and the stepped-down dc voltage is provided to the positive input terminal of the second comparator D2 through the second switch transistor M2. At this time, if the stepped-down dc voltage is less than or equal to V1, the second comparator D2 outputs a low level signal, the third switching tube M3 remains on, and the driving circuit operates normally. If the reduced dc voltage is still greater than V1, the second comparator D2 outputs a high level signal, and the third switching tube M3 is turned off, so as to open the loop between the input terminal of the driving circuit and the output terminal of the driving circuit, and the driving circuit stops operating.
It can be seen that, in the driving circuit provided in the present invention, when the input dc voltage is greater than the standard voltage, the step-down circuit 100 performs step-down processing on the dc voltage, and if the voltage after step-down processing is still greater than the standard voltage, the switch circuit 200 is used to disconnect the loop between the output terminal of the driving circuit and the input terminal of the driving circuit, so that the driving circuit stops outputting the voltage. On one hand, the driving chip receiving the output voltage of the driving circuit can be prevented from being burned or damaged by the step-down of the step-down circuit 100 and the forced stopping of the power supply of the driving circuit by the switching circuit 200. On the other hand, if the dc voltage after the voltage reduction processing by the voltage reduction circuit 100 is smaller than the standard voltage, it is not necessary to disconnect the loop between the output terminal of the driving circuit and the input terminal of the driving circuit, and the driving circuit is guaranteed to operate normally, thereby reducing the number of times of disconnecting the driving circuit due to the overhigh input dc voltage.
