Detailed Description
In order to make the technical solutions of the present invention better understood, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
The embodiment of the invention provides a display driving method for driving a light emitting diode D1 display panel. Specific examples of the led D1 display panel include an oled D1 display panel and a qd led D1 display panel.
As shown in fig. 1, the led D1 display panel includes a plurality of gate lines GL, a plurality of data lines DL, a plurality of emission control lines EML, and a plurality of pixel units. The pixel cells may be arranged in a matrix, the gate lines GL may extend in a row direction, the data lines DL may extend in a column direction, and the emission control lines EML may extend in a row direction. Each pixel unit is connected to one gate line GL, one emission control line EML, and one data line DL. For example, one row of pixel units is connected to the same gate line GL and the same emission control line EML. The pixel units in the same column are connected to the same data line DL.
The pixel unit includes a driving transistor T0, a light emitting diode D1, and a light emission controlling transistor T2. Of course, to implement the writing of the display data and the storage of the display data, the pixel unit further includes a writing control crystal T1 and a first capacitor C1. The first and second poles of the driving transistor T0, the cathode and anode of the light emitting diode D1, and the first and second poles of the emission control transistor T2 are all connected in series in the same current path, and the emission control line EML is used to control the on/off of the corresponding emission control transistor T2.
Taking the oled D1 as an example, the oled display panel includes a red oled, a green oled, and a blue oled. In particular, the embodiments of the present invention are also applicable to an organic light emitting diode display panel (also referred to as a WOLED display panel) in which a white organic light emitting diode is matched with a red, green and blue color film. This is because the organic functional layer of the white organic light emitting diode is also formed by combining a red organic light emitting substance, a green organic light emitting substance, and a blue organic light emitting substance.
In the display driving method according to the embodiment of the invention, the pixel unit connected to at least one gate line GL is provided with the first driving signal in at least one frame period of the pixel unit. Referring to fig. 2 in conjunction with fig. 1 and 3, a frame period in which the first driving signal is located is divided into a first writing phase, a first lighting phase, and a blanking phase. As an example, each transistor in fig. 1 is an N-type thin film transistor, and the effective voltage of each signal in fig. 3 is a high level voltage. Fig. 3 shows a timing of supplying the first driving signal to the pixel unit connected to one gate line GL in one frame period. In fig. 3, a signal supplied to the gate line GL is denoted by G, a signal supplied to the data line DL is denoted by D, and a signal supplied to the emission control line EML is denoted by EM.
For the gate line GL under consideration, in the first writing phase P1, an active voltage is supplied to the gate line GL and each data line DL, and an inactive voltage is supplied to the emission control line EML corresponding to the gate line GL, so as to write a data voltage to the pixel cell. At this time, the write control transistor T1 is turned on, and the data voltage on the data line DL is stored to the gate of the driving transistor T0 and the first pole of the first capacitor C1 (the pole connected to the driving transistor T0). The light emitting control transistor T2 is turned off, and no current flows through the current path of the light emitting diode D1. The light emitting diode D1 did not emit light.
In the first light emitting period P2, an inactive voltage is supplied to the gate line GL, and an active voltage is supplied to the light emitting control line EML corresponding to the gate line GL, so that the pixel cell emits light. At this time, the write control transistor T1 is turned off, and the gate voltage of the driving transistor T0 is not affected regardless of whether there is a signal on the data line DL. A current path from the first power terminal VDD to the second power terminal VSS through the source drain (i.e., the first and second electrodes thereof) of the light emission controlling transistor T2, the source drain (and the first and second electrodes thereof) of the driving transistor T0, the anode and cathode of the light emitting diode D1 is turned on in this order, so that the light emitting diode D1 emits light. The pixel cell displays light of a desired brightness.
In the turn-off period P3, an inactive voltage is supplied to the emission control line EML corresponding to the gate line GL to turn off the pixel cell. The light emission controlling transistors T2 are all off at this time, and the pixel cell does not emit light. Of course, in order to reduce the conventional driving timing and the corresponding hardware modification, the gate line GL is supplied with the inactive voltage (the same as in the case of the lighting phase P2) and the data lines DL are supplied with the inactive voltage (the same as in the case of the lighting phase P2) in the turn-off phase P3.
Since the light emitting time of the pixel cell connected to the currently considered gate line GL is shortened relative to the prior art in one frame period. This also retards the aging rate of the light-emitting layers therein, thereby retarding the color shift caused by the aging of the light-emitting layers of the respective colors being too fast.
Alternatively, the extinguishing phase P3 is positioned after the first lighting phase P2 within the frame period of the first driving signal. I.e. for the currently considered row of pixel cells, it is first illuminated and then extinguished within the same frame period. Of course, the extinguishing phase P3 can also precede the first lighting phase P2. That is, for the currently considered row of pixel cells, in the same frame period, after the writing of the data voltage is completed, the light is not emitted, and after a period of time, the light is emitted again.
Optionally, the ratio of the duration of the blanking period P3 to the duration of the adjustment frame period in the frame period of the first driving signal is less than or equal to 0.2. The extinguishing period P3 is too long and causes noticeable flicker, so that the extinguishing period P3 needs to be set short.
Alternatively, the first driving signal is provided to each pixel unit during the display of the same frame of picture. That is, if the driving timings of the pixel units on the gate lines GL need to be adjusted, the driving timings of the pixel units on all the gate lines GL are adjusted the same. This may simplify the complexity of the led D1 display panel and the display driver.
Optionally, the display driving method further includes a step of determining whether to provide a first driving signal to each pixel unit for the current frame image, where if the average brightness of the current frame image is smaller than a first threshold, the first driving signal is provided to each pixel unit; otherwise, a second driving signal is provided to each pixel unit, the frame period of the second driving signal is divided into a second writing stage and a second light-emitting stage, and the second driving signal provided to the pixel unit connected to any gate line GL includes: in the second writing phase P1a, an effective voltage is supplied to the gate line GL and each data line DL, and an ineffective voltage is supplied to the emission control line EML corresponding to the gate line L, so as to write a data voltage to the pixel cell connected to the gate line GL; in the second light-emitting period P2a, an inactive voltage is provided to the gate line GL, and an active voltage is provided to the light-emitting control line EML corresponding to the gate line GL, so that the pixel cell connected to the gate line GL emits light.
For a brighter display image, if the pixel unit connected to each gate line has a longer non-light-emitting time in one frame period, the overall flicker feeling is more serious. Whereas for a darker displayed image the overall flicker perception will be relatively weak. If the light-off period P3 is set for a dark display screen, the light-off period P3 is not set for a dark display screen. Namely, for a part of frame images, the display driving is performed by adopting the optimized driving method, and for another part of frame images, the display driving is performed by adopting a conventional driving method. The judgment is based on the average gray level (i.e. the overall brightness) of all the sub-pixels. If the overall brightness of one frame of image to be displayed is higher, flicker felt by a user is more obvious, and a conventional driving timing sequence is adopted. If the overall brightness of the image of one frame to be displayed is low, flicker sensed by a user is not obvious, and the optimized driving time sequence is adopted.
Under the condition that the first driving signals are provided for each pixel unit, the display driving method further comprises the step of setting the duration of the extinguishing stage, wherein the duration of the extinguishing stage when the current frame image is displayed is determined according to the preset mapping relation between the average gray scale of the current frame image and the duration of the extinguishing stage, and the duration of the extinguishing stage is gradually increased along with the reduction of the average gray scale.
That is, the lower the overall brightness of the picture to be displayed, the longer the light-off period P3 lasts in the frame period in which each row of pixel units is located. On the premise that the flicker felt by the user is not obvious, the light-emitting time of the light-emitting layer is shortened as much as possible, and the aging is delayed as much as possible.
