Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
The transistors used in all embodiments of the present application can be transistors, thin film transistors, or field effect transistors or other devices with the same characteristics. In the embodiment of the present application, in order to distinguish two terminals of the transistor except for the control terminal, one of the poles is referred to as a first terminal, and the other pole is referred to as a second terminal.
When the transistor is a triode, the control end can be a base electrode, the first end can be a collector electrode, and the second end can be an emitter electrode; alternatively, the control terminal may be a base, the first terminal may be an emitter, and the second terminal may be a collector.
When the transistor is a thin film transistor or a field effect transistor, the control end can be a grid electrode, the first end can be a drain electrode, and the second end can be a source electrode; alternatively, the control terminal may be a gate, the first terminal may be a source, and the second terminal may be a drain.
The pixel driving of the display panel is driven by a pixel driving circuit, which typically includes a driving transistor unit and a compensation transistor unit including a double-gate transistor. The compensation transistor unit is used for controlling the control end of the driving transistor unit to be communicated with other ends of the driving transistor unit, so that the light-emitting element emits light.
For the display panel, the larger the number of refreshes of the image displayed on the display panel, the smaller the flicker of the image display and the higher the picture quality. That is, the refresh frequency of the display panel is high, and the image quality display is better, but the power consumption is also high. Therefore, when high-quality image quality is not required, the refresh frequency of the display panel can be set to a low frequency, and when high-quality image quality is required, the refresh frequency of the display panel can be set to a high frequency, thereby achieving balance between image quality and power consumption.
However, when the display panel operates at a low frequency (the refresh frequency is relatively low), the intermediate node of the dual-gate transistor leaks current to the control terminal of the driving transistor, for example, in the circuit shown in fig. 1, when the driving signal provided by the gate line of the dual-gate transistor M31 and M32 jumps upwards during low-frequency display, the intermediate node of M31 and M32 is pulled high, and during one frame time, the node leaks current to the gate of the driving transistor M1, so that the potential of the driving transistor M1 rises, and the luminance of the light-emitting element decreases.
Therefore, the embodiment of the present application proposes a concept that: since the middle node of the double-gate transistor is pulled high and leaks to the gate of the driving transistor, an anti-leakage unit may be provided for adjusting the voltage value of the middle node of the double-gate transistor in response to the emission control signal in the emission phase, for example, when the display panel operates at a low frequency, the voltage value of the middle node of the double-gate transistor is lowered in response to the emission control signal, so that the voltage of the middle node of the double-gate transistor approaches the voltage of the control terminal of the driving transistor. Therefore, no matter how the driving signal provided by the grid line of the double-grid transistor changes, the voltage value of the middle node of the double-grid transistor can be adjusted through the anti-leakage unit, so that the problem that the middle node of the double-grid transistor leaks electricity to the control end of the driving transistor is solved, and the phenomenon that human eyes recognize that the display panel screen flickers is avoided.
It should be noted that the refresh frequency of the display panel is relatively high frequency or low frequency, the high frequency may be a specific value or a frequency range, and similarly, the low frequency may be a specific value or a frequency range, which is not limited in this application.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of another pixel driving circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the pixel driving circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application includes: a driving transistor unit 210 driving the light emitting device D, a compensation transistor unit 220 including a double gate transistor 221, and an anti-leakage unit 230.
The first terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 is connected to a first voltage source VDD, the second terminal thereof is connected to a first terminal of the light emitting device D, and the second terminal thereof is connected to a second voltage source VSS.
A first terminal of the compensation transistor unit 220 is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210, and a second terminal of the compensation transistor unit 220 is connected to the second terminal of the driving transistor unit 210, for controlling the communication between the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the second terminal of the driving transistor unit 210.
The anti-leakage unit 230 acts on the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221, and adjusts the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 according to a light emission control signal, which is a signal for controlling the light emitting device D to emit light.
For the pixel driving circuit shown in fig. 2, the operation principle is as follows: when the driving transistor unit 210 and the light emitting device D are connected in series between the first voltage source VDD and the second voltage source VSS, the driving transistor unit 210 is turned on and a path is formed between the first voltage source VDD and the second voltage source VSS, the light emitting device D emits light, and when the driving transistor unit 210 is in an off state, the light emitting device D does not emit light. The compensation transistor unit 220 controls the connection between the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the second terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 under the control of the driving signal provided by the gate line.
When the display panel displays at low frequency, because the driving signal provided by the grid line of the double-grid transistor jumps upwards, the middle node of the double-grid transistor is pulled high, and the node leaks electricity to the grid electrode of the driving transistor in one frame time, so that the potential of the driving transistor is increased, and the brightness of the light-emitting element is reduced. Therefore, the problem of leakage of the intermediate node of the dual-gate transistor to the control terminal of the driving transistor needs to be solved, and the phenomenon that human eyes recognize that the display panel screen flickers is avoided.
For the circuit shown in fig. 2, the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 is connected to a compensation transistor unit 220, which includes a double gate transistor 221. The circuit further includes a leakage preventing unit 230, the leakage preventing unit 230 acting on the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221, wherein the leakage preventing unit 230 adjusts the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 in relation to the light emission control signal, that is, the leakage preventing unit 230 can adjust the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 in accordance with the light emission control signal, for example, when the display panel operates at a low frequency, the leakage preventing unit 230 decreases the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor in response to the light emission control signal to make the voltage of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor approach the voltage of the control terminal of the driving transistor. In this way, the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 can be adjusted by the anti-leakage unit 230 regardless of the variation of the driving signal provided by the gate line of the dual-gate transistor 220, thereby solving the problem of leakage of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor to the control terminal of the driving transistor.
In the pixel driving circuit, the control terminal of the driving transistor unit is connected to a compensation transistor unit including a dual-gate transistor, and an anti-leakage unit is provided, the anti-leakage unit acts on a middle node of the dual-gate transistor to adjust a voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor according to a light emission control signal, wherein the light emission control signal is a signal for controlling the light emission of the light emitting device. Therefore, when the display panel is in a light-emitting stage, the anti-leakage unit responds to the light-emitting control signal, and further adjusts the voltage value of the middle node of the double-gate transistor according to the light-emitting control signal, so that the voltage of the middle node of the double-gate transistor is close to the voltage of the control end of the driving transistor, thereby reducing the leakage of the middle node of the double-gate transistor to the control end of the driving transistor, avoiding the phenomenon that the display panel screen flickers recognized by human eyes, and meeting the practical application requirement.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of another pixel driving circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, the anti-leakage unit 230 includes a transistor M8, a control terminal of the transistor M8 is connected to the emission control signal, a first terminal of the transistor M8 is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210, and a second terminal of the transistor M8 is connected to the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 220.
The control terminal of the transistor M8 is connected to the emission control line EM for controlling the connection between the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the middle node of the dual gate transistor 220 under the control of the emission control signal provided by the emission control line EM.
For the pixel driving circuit shown in fig. 3, the operation principle is as follows: the compensation transistor unit 220 controls the connection between the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the second terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 under the control of the driving signal provided by the gate line, and the light emitting device D emits light, wherein the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 are connected through the transistor M8, and the control terminal of the transistor M8 is connected to the light emitting control signal, so that when the refresh frequency of the display panel changes, the transistor M8 adjusts the voltage value of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 according to the light emitting control signal, the voltage of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221 is made to approach the voltage of the control terminal of the driving transistor 210, the leakage of the middle node of the dual-gate transistor to the control terminal of the driving transistor is reduced, and the phenomenon of screen flicker of the display panel is improved.
Illustratively, the current change of the pixel drive circuit within one frame is obtained before and after the pixel drive circuit sets the transistor M8 described above. Before the transistor M8 is not provided, the current drops by 1.6% in one frame. After the transistor M8 is set, the current drops by 0.56% in one frame. Therefore, it is known that the transistor M8 is disposed in the pixel driving circuit, so that the problem of leakage from the middle node of the dual-gate transistor to the control terminal of the driving transistor can be effectively solved, and further, the phenomenon of flicker of the display panel screen is prevented from being recognized by human eyes, thereby meeting the requirements of practical application.
Fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of another pixel driving circuit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, in any of the above embodiments, the anti-leakage unit 230 includes a capacitor C1, a first terminal of the capacitor C1 is connected to the emission control signal, and a second terminal of the capacitor C1 is connected to the middle node of the dual-gate transistor 221.
For the pixel driving circuit shown in fig. 4, the operation principle is as follows: the compensation transistor unit 220 controls the connection between the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 and the second terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 under the control of the driving signal provided by the gate line, and the light emitting device D emits light. When the driving signal provided by the gate line of the compensation transistor unit 220 makes a transition upward, the capacitor C1 couples the potential of the intermediate node of the dual-gate transistor 221 downward through the above-mentioned light emission control signal making a transition downward, thereby reducing the leakage of the intermediate node to the control terminal of the driving transistor unit 210 within one frame and improving the flicker phenomenon of the display panel screen.
Illustratively, the current change of the pixel driving circuit is obtained within one frame before and after the pixel driving circuit sets the capacitor C1. Before the capacitor C1 was not provided, the current dropped by 1.6% in one frame. After the capacitor C1 was set, the current dropped by 0.05% in one frame. Therefore, it is known that the capacitor C1 is disposed in the pixel driving circuit, so that the problem of leakage from the middle node of the dual-gate transistor to the control terminal of the driving transistor can be effectively solved, and further, the phenomenon of flicker of the display panel screen is prevented from being recognized by human eyes, thereby meeting the requirements of practical applications.
