FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an application of a source driver circuit according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 1, a circuit diagram of a common electrode discharge circuit according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown. The common electrode discharge circuit mainly includes: a comparator and NPN transistor T6; the negative phase input end of the comparator is connected with a power supply voltage VDD of the source electrode driving circuit, the positive phase input end of the comparator is connected with a threshold voltage V1 of the power supply voltage VDD when a preset power supply is turned off and a pixel electrode starts to discharge, the output end of the comparator is connected with a base electrode B of a triode T6, a collector electrode C of the triode T6 is connected with a common electrode, and an emitter electrode E of the triode T6 is connected with a data signal line. In other embodiments, the transistor T6 may be replaced by another type of switch tube, as will be understood by those skilled in the art.
Based on the circuit shown in fig. 1, the common electrode discharge method of the present invention can be implemented, and the method mainly includes:
step 10, when the power supply is turned off, the electric potential of the grid signal line is pulled high, the electric potential of the data signal line is pulled low, and the pixel electrode discharges through the data signal line; meanwhile, the power supply voltage VDD of the source driving circuit starts to decrease; this step is the conventional pixel electrode discharge process.
Step 20, connecting the inverting input end of the comparator with the power supply voltage VDD of the source electrode driving circuit, connecting the non-inverting input end of the comparator with a preset threshold voltage V1 of the power supply voltage VDD when the pixel electrode starts to discharge after the power supply is turned off, and connecting the output end of the comparator with the control end of the switching tube; when the comparator judges that the power supply voltage VDD of the source electrode driving circuit is reduced to a threshold voltage V1, a control signal is output to control the switch tube to be opened; in this step, the transistor T6 is used for switching the tube.
And step 30, connecting a first end of the switch tube with a common electrode, connecting a second end of the switch tube with a data signal line, and discharging the common electrode through the data signal line when the switch tube is turned on. When the switching tube specifically adopts the triode T6, as can be seen from the circuit shown in fig. 1, when VDD > V1, the base B of the triode T6 is at a low level, and the triode T6 is turned off; when VDD is less than V1, the base B of the triode T6 is at high level, the triode T6 is conducted, and at the moment, because the potential of the data signal line is pulled down, the common electrode discharges through the data signal line, thereby improving the screen flash phenomenon caused by the inconsistency of the discharge speed of the pixel electrode and the common electrode.
Referring to fig. 2, which is an application diagram of a preferred embodiment of the source driving circuit of the present invention, the source driving circuit of the present invention is applied to a conventional liquid crystal panel, and the source driving circuit may include the common electrode discharge circuit, and the common electrode discharge circuit is integrated inside the source driving circuit.

In the preferred embodiment, the common electrode discharge circuit (the specific structure can be shown in fig. 1) is integrated into the conventional source driver circuit.
For the liquid crystal panel using the source electrode driving circuit, when the power supply is turned off, the electric potential of the grid electrode signal wire is pulled high, the electric potential of the data signal wire is pulled low, and the pixel electrode discharges through the data signal wire; meanwhile, the power supply voltage VDD of the source driving circuit is reduced to be lower than the threshold voltage V1 of the pixel electrode for starting to discharge, and the common electrode can discharge through the data signal line through the common electrode discharge circuit embedded in the source driving circuit, so that the screen flash phenomenon caused by the fact that the discharge speed of the pixel electrode is different from that of the common electrode is improved.
