本实施例中,所述像素驱动电路还包括第五晶体管T5,所述第五晶体管 T5的栅极接入第二扫描信号Scan[n-1],所述第五晶体管T5的源极连接所述第一节点G,所述第五晶体管T5的漏极接入复位电压VI。当正向扫描时,首先通过复位电压VI复位,第五晶体管T5开启。
本实施例中,所述像素驱动电路还包括第六晶体管T6,所述第六晶体管 T6的栅极与接入发光信号EM[n],所述第六晶体管T6的源极连接所述第三节点S,所述第六晶体管T6的漏极连接所述有机发光元件OLED的阳极。
本申请使用所述像素驱动电路进行了模拟仿真数据,确认可实现对应功能。电容不同所需的充电时间不同,电容越小所需充电时间越短,高帧频下可使用小电容,即所述存储电容Cst单独使用;低帧频时充电时间较长,可使用组合大电容,即所述补偿电容Cb和所述存储电容Cst并联使用。另外,在存储电容大时的电容保持效果较优,可使用组合大电容加强低帧频时的电压保持。
结合模拟仿真结果,绘制了图3、图4对所述像素驱动电路进行原理说明。
图3为所述像素驱动电路的充电原理图,横轴为时间Time、纵轴为Q点电压VQ,高频驱动对应电容为Cst,电容较小电压上升较快,在较短时间到达数据信号Data的数据电压Vdata;低频驱动对应电容为Cst+Cb,电容较大电压上升较慢,在较长时间到达数据信号Data的数据电压Vdata。故可根据不同驱动帧频选择不同大小的存储电容,尽可能较少充电时间差异引起的Q点电压VQ差异。
图4为所述像素驱动电路的电压保持原理图,横轴为时间Time、纵轴为负向电压VSS的电流值IVSS,高频驱动对应电容为Cst,电容较小,相同漏电流导致电压变化较快;低频驱动对应电容为Cst+Cb,电容较慢,相同漏电流导致电压变化较慢。根据不同驱动帧频选择不同大小的存储电容,尽可能较少充电时间差异引起的Q点电压VQ差异。
实施例2
如图5所示,在实施例2中包括实施例1中大部分的技术特征,其区别在于,实施例2中的所述补偿电容Cb位于所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb下方,而不是实施例1中所述补偿电容Cb位于所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb上方。
在图5中所述补偿电容Cb位于所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb下方,相对于图 2的结构,所述补偿电容Cb与所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb位置对调。其中上方和下方为在附图中的相对位置描述。
实施例3
如图6所示,在实施例3中包括实施例2中大部分的技术特征,其区别在于,实施例3中的所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb为单栅极结构,而不是实施例2 中所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb为双栅极结构。
同样可理解的是,所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb为单栅极结构也可替换实施例1中所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb为双栅极结构。
基于同样的发明构思,本发明其中一实施例中提供一种显示面板,包括上述任一种所述的驱动电路。本实施例中的显示装置可以为:手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。

S2、应用帧频检测步骤,用于检测所述显示面板当前应用软件的帧频;

S4、低帧频开启晶体管控制步骤,在低帧频模式时,所述控制信号Cb_EN 控制所述低帧频开启晶体管Tb开启,所述补偿电容Cb和所述存储电容Cst并联使用;在高帧频模式时,所述控制信号Cb_EN控制所述低帧频开启晶体管 Tb关闭,所述存储电容Cst单独使用。
值得注意的是,本申请实施例中优选区分低帧频模式和高帧频模式的分界阈值为60Hz,但是不严格限分界阈值为60Hz,其还可以为40~80Hz中的任意整数,其均属于本申请保护范围。所述低帧频模式中的帧频范围为1~60Hz,所述高帧频模式中的帧频范围为60~120Hz。
如图8所示,图8为显示面板应用图7所示的所述显示面板的驱动方法的使用流程图,其对应图7所示的所述显示面板的驱动方法实现驱动。
本发明的技术效果在于,提供一种像素驱动电路、显示面板及其驱动方法,通过增加低帧频补偿电容单元,优化了像素驱动电路中电容结构,相同功能电容分为两个部分,实现了同时兼顾高帧频模式或低帧频模式,可以保证在较低的刷新频率下电压的稳定,同时确保在高帧频驱动时增加了电容值总量,确保在短时间内电压的准确写入。
在上述实施例中,对各个实施例的描述都各有侧重,某个实施例中没有详述的部分,可以参见其他实施例的相关描述。
