Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a connection between a feedback circuit and a first display region according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 4, in the present embodiment, the feedback circuit 3 is an inverse proportion amplifying circuit, and includes a feedback resistor 31, a first resistor 32, a second resistor 33, and an operational amplifier 34. An inverting input terminal ("-") of the operational amplifier 34 is electrically connected to the voltage supply terminal of the display panel 1 through the first resistor 32, a homonymous input terminal ("+" terminal) of the operational amplifier 34 is grounded through the second resistor 33, and an output terminal of the operational amplifier 34 is electrically connected to the first display region 11 for outputting the amplified voltage to the first display region 11. The feedback resistor 31 is adjustable, and may be an adjustable varistor, and two ends of the adjustable varistor are electrically connected to the inverting input terminal and the output terminal of the operational amplifier 34, respectively.
Here, the output voltage V of the feedback circuit 3out(i.e. the voltage amplified and compensated by the feedback circuit 3) can be obtained by the following formula according to the inverse proportion operation of the feedback circuit:
Figure BDA0002325790060000081
wherein R isfRepresents the resistance value, R, of the feedback resistor 311Represents the resistance value, V, of the first resistor 32inRepresents the input voltage provided by the voltage providing terminal for the display panel 1, the input voltage is generally the data voltage, and can be represented as Vdata
Further, the pixel current amplified and compensated by the feedback circuit 3 can be based on the output voltage VoutAnd a data voltage VdataObtained by the following formula:
IOLED=K×(Vout-Vdata)2
wherein, IOLEDThe pixel current (i.e., the input current of the first display region 11) after the amplification and compensation by the feedback circuit 3 is shown, and K is a coefficient of the light emitting element in the display panel 1.
From the above two equations, the following equation can be obtained:
Figure BDA0002325790060000082
it can be understood that to increase the luminance of the first display region 11, I needs to be increasedOLEDThe input amount of (2). As can be seen from the above formula, due to the K value and R1The value is fixed and the data voltage V is supplied to the first display region 11 and the second display region 12dataAlso, for the first display region 11 to which the feedback circuit 3 is added, by increasing the resistance value R of the feedback resistor 31fThe input current to the first display region 11 can be increased to improve the luminance.
Therefore, after obtaining the voltage variation | Δ V | (i.e. the voltage to be compensated), the voltage compensation can be performed on the first display area 11 by adjusting the resistance of the feedback resistor 31, so that the input voltage of the first display area 11 reaches the preset value Vdata+ | Δ V |, i.e., let Vout=Vdata+ | Δ V |. Specifically, the resistance value of the feedback resistor 31 can be calculated by the following formula:

the resistance value R of the feedback resistor 31 will be described in detailfDetermination of (1):
by the formula
Figure BDA0002325790060000084
The following formula can be obtained:
Figure BDA0002325790060000085
which is related to formula Vout=VdataThe + | Δ V | can be combined to give the formula:
Figure BDA0002325790060000086
it can be seen that the resistance value R of the first resistor 32 is reduced1And a data voltage VdataIs fixed, the resistance R of the feedback resistor 31fIs related to the voltage variation | Δ V |, so it is slightThe controller 4 may control the resistance value R of the feedback resistor 31 in the feedback circuit 3 by the calculated voltage variation | Δ V |fSo that the voltage of the first display region 11 is increased by the input amount | Δ V |, and the light emitting current of the screen is increased, so that the brightness is compensated.
