Specifically, in the method, the first voltage terminal VDD is used to provide an operating voltage, and the pixel driving method specifically includes:
s11, a reset stage t1, in which a first reset signal is input to the second voltage terminal VINT, a turn-on signal is input to the first reset terminal RST1, and a turn-off signal is input to the GATE terminal GATE, the second reset terminal RST2, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen.

It should be noted that, in the following description, all transistors are P-type transistors, so that the on signal is a low level signal and the off signal is a high level signal.
In this stage, that is, the GATE terminal GATE, the second reset terminal RST2, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen input a high level, the transistors except the first transistor M1 are turned off, and a low level is input to the first reset terminal RST1, the first transistor M1 is turned on, and the first reset signal of the second voltage terminal VINT is written into the first node N1 through the first transistor M1, so that the GATE-source voltage Vgs of the seventh transistor M7 is cleared, and the storage capacitor C is charged.
S12, a DATA writing stage t2, in which a DATA signal is input to the DATA line terminal DATA, a turn-on signal is input to the GATE line terminal GATE, and a turn-off signal is input to the first reset terminal RST1, the second reset terminal RST2, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen.
In this stage, that is, the first reset terminal RST1, the second reset terminal RST2, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen are inputted with a high level, the first transistor M1, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, and the eighth transistor M8 are turned off, the second transistor M2, and the third transistor M3 are inputted with a low level, and at the same time, the seventh transistor M7 is turned on due to the storage capacitor C, so that the DATA signal of the DATA line terminal DATA is written into the first node N1 through the second transistor M2, the seventh transistor M7, and the third transistor M3 until the voltage of the first node N1 becomes the sum of the voltage and the threshold voltage of the DATA signal (vg=data+vth).
S13, a reset stage t3, in which a second reset signal is input to the second voltage terminal VINT, a turn-on signal is input to the second reset terminal RST2, and a turn-off signal is input to the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen.
In this stage, that is, the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, the first signal terminal EM, and the second signal terminal Sen input a high level, so that the transistors except the fourth transistor M4 are turned off, the second reset terminal RST2 inputs a low level, and the fourth transistor M4 is turned on, so that the second reset signal of the second voltage terminal VINT is written into the light emitting unit 2, wherein the second reset signal is a signal that causes the light emitting unit 2 (OLED) not to emit light, and the signal is a voltage slightly greater than that when the light emitting unit 2 emits light, so as to protect the material of the light emitting unit 2.
S14, a transition stage t4 inputs a turn-off signal to the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, the second reset terminal RST2, the first signal terminal EM and the second signal terminal Sen for preparing for the next stage.
S15, a display stage t5, in which a display voltage is input to the first voltage terminal VDD, a turn-on signal is input to the first signal terminal EM, and a turn-off signal is input to the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, the second reset terminal RST2, and the second signal terminal Sen.
In this stage, that is, the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, the second reset terminal RST2, and the second signal terminal Sen input a high level, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3, the fourth transistor M4, and the eighth transistor M8 are turned off, the first signal terminal EM inputs a low level, the fifth transistor M5 and the sixth transistor M6 are turned on, and the seventh transistor M7 is turned on by the storage capacitor C. Due to the effect of the first voltage terminal VDD, the voltage of the second node N2 becomes VDD, and the voltage of the first node N1 remains data+vth due to the storage capacitor C, the difference Vgs-vth= (data+vth-VDD) -vth=data-VDD for the gate-source voltage and the threshold voltage of the seventh transistor M7, and thus the difference between the gate-source voltage and the threshold voltage of the seventh transistor M7 is not affected by the threshold voltage Vth, thereby avoiding non-uniformity of light emission due to poor uniformity of the threshold voltage Vth.
Meanwhile, as VDD is a constant voltage, the adjustment of the display voltage can be realized only by adjusting Data.
S16, a detection and adjustment stage t6, wherein a display voltage is input to the first voltage terminal VDD, a conduction signal is input to the first signal terminal EM and the second signal terminal Sen, and a turn-off signal is input to the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1 and the second reset terminal RST 2.
As shown in fig. 2, in this stage, a high level is input to the GATE terminal GATE, the first reset terminal RST1, and the second reset terminal RST2, so that the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the third transistor M3, and the fourth transistor M4 are turned off, a conductive signal is input to the first signal terminal EM, the second signal terminal Sen, the fifth transistor M5, the sixth transistor M6, and the eighth transistor M8 are turned on, and the seventh transistor M7 is kept in an on state in the upper stage, so that the voltage of the light emitting unit 2 is input to the detection and adjustment unit 8, so that the detection and adjustment unit 8 detects and adjusts the voltage.
Specifically, the voltage of the light emitting unit 2 passes through the eighth transistor M8, the amplifier 91, the first analog-to-digital converter 92, the query subunit 93, the storage subunit 94, the second analog-to-digital converter 95, and finally reaches the DATA line terminal DATA. The amplifier 91 is mainly used for amplifying the voltage so as to make the detection of the voltage more accurate. The first analog-to-digital converter 92 performs analog-to-digital conversion of the amplified voltage. The inquiring subunit 93 inquires and adjusts the signal from the first analog-to-digital converter 92 (i.e., compares the actual voltage signal of the light emitting unit 2 with the aging voltage data of the preset light emitting unit 2 to obtain a corresponding output voltage difference value), and sends the corresponding output voltage difference value to the storing subunit 94, so that the storing subunit 94 stores the adjusted signal. The second analog-to-digital converter 95 again analog-to-digital converts the stored signal in the storage subunit 94 and sends it to the DATA line terminal DATA. The DATA line terminal DATA may be connected to a processing module such as a chip, where the processing module sends the final adjusted DATA voltage to the DATA line terminal DATA according to the signal of the DATA line (i.e., the signal converted by the second analog-to-digital converter 95 and the DATA voltage that the DATA line terminal DATA should originally provide). This stage can avoid uneven light emission due to aging of the light emitting unit 2 (i.e., the organic light emitting diode) to realize external compensation of the pixel driving circuit.
Example 2:
as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present embodiment provides a display panel including a plurality of pixel driving circuits, wherein the pixel driving circuits are the pixel driving circuits in embodiment 1.
Since the time required for the pixel driving method is relatively short, the method can be performed in a blank area (blanking) between two frames during display. The pixel driving method may adjust the display voltages of the sub-pixels of a plurality of rows at a time, and preferably, the pixel driving method may adjust the display voltages of the sub-pixels of only one row at a time.
Specifically, the display device may be any product or component with a display function, such as an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display panel, electronic paper, mobile phone, tablet computer, television, display, notebook computer, digital photo frame, navigator, etc.
