Background
In a display device, when a process is varied, a Threshold Voltage (Threshold Voltage) of a driving transistor in a pixel circuit is prone to drift, so that an unexpected change occurs in a current flowing through a light emitting element, and further, an emission luminance of a display panel is unstable, thereby affecting a quality of a display image.
In the conventional pixel circuit, the compensation operation for the threshold voltage of the driving transistor is usually started during the period when the gate driving signal is enabled. However, when the display device operates at a high resolution (or a high frequency), the enabling time of the gate driving signal is very limited, so the compensation time for compensating the threshold voltage of the pixel circuit is too short, and the compensation effect of the pixel circuit cannot be optimized. Therefore, how to improve the effect of the threshold voltage on the quality of the display screen will be an important issue for those skilled in the art.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a pixel circuit 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 1, the pixel circuit 100 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 110, a voltage compensation circuit 120, a data writing circuit 130, a light-emitting control circuit 140, and a light-emitting element EL. The anode terminal of the light emitting element EL is coupled to the system voltage VDD, and the cathode terminal of the light emitting element EL is coupled to the light emission control circuit 140. The light emitting element EL can be correspondingly lighted according to the on current ID. The Light Emitting element EL of the present embodiment may be, for example, an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), a Light Emitting Diode (LED) or other Light Emitting elements, which is not limited in the invention.
A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the system voltage VSS, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the light-emitting control circuit 140, and a driving terminal PD (i.e., a gate terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the voltage compensation circuit 120. The system voltage VDD of the present embodiment may be a system high voltage, the system voltage VSS may be a system low voltage, and a voltage value of the system voltage VDD may be greater than a voltage value of the system voltage VSS.
The initialization circuit 110 is coupled to the input PIN and the driving terminal PD. The initialization circuit 110 is configured to adjust the voltage levels of the input terminal PN and the driving terminal PD according to the previous gate driving signal SN-m. The voltage compensation circuit 120 is coupled to the input PIN and the driving terminal PD. The voltage compensation circuit 120 can adjust the voltage level of the driving terminal PD according to the voltage at the input terminal PIN and/or the compensation control signal RN.
On the other hand, the data write circuit 130 is coupled to the input terminal PIN. The data writing circuit 130 is configured to provide the data voltage VDATA to the input PIN according to the gate driving signal SN. The light-emitting control circuit 140 is coupled to the cathode terminal of the light-emitting element EL, the voltage compensation circuit 120 and the second terminal of the driving transistor TD. The emission control circuit 140 can control the emission state of the light emitting element EL according to the emission control signal EM.
Particularly, in the present embodiment, the gate driving signal SN, the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m, the compensation control signal RN, and the emission control signal EM may be generated by a control signal generator (not shown). The control signal generator (not shown) may be implemented by three sets of Gate-Driver-on-Array (GOA) circuits. In other words, since the present embodiment can control the pixel circuit 100 by only three sets of GOA circuits, the entire area can be effectively saved.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the gate driving signal SN may be an nth-level gate driving signal generated by a GOA circuit (not shown), and the previous-level gate driving signal SN-m may be an nth-m-level gate driving signal generated by the GOA circuit (not shown). The N and m may be positive integers greater than 1, and may be determined according to design requirements of the pixel circuit 100, which is not limited in the invention.
For the operation of the pixel circuit 100, specifically, when the pixel circuit 100 operates in the compensation phase of a pixel period, the voltage compensation circuit 120 can adjust the voltage level of the driving terminal PD of the driving transistor TD according to the voltage at the input terminal PIN and/or the pulled-up compensation control signal RN, thereby compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD.
It should be noted that the pixel circuit 100 can improve the compensation effect of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD by adjusting the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m and the compensation control signal RN. For example, in the present embodiment, the enabling time of the compensation control signal RN received by the voltage compensation circuit 120 can be set to be between the falling edge of the previous gate driving signal SN-m and the rising edge of the gate driving signal SN.
Further, the pixel circuit 100 may continue to set the compensation control signal RN to the enabled state (e.g., high voltage level) after the previous stage of the gate driving signal SN-m (i.e., the nth stage of the gate driving signal) is converted from the enabled state to the disabled state (e.g., from the high voltage level to the low voltage level) until the gate driving signal SN (i.e., the nth stage of the gate driving signal) is to be converted from the disabled state to the enabled state (e.g., from the low voltage level to the high voltage level).
That is, the present embodiment may use a time interval between a falling edge of the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m and a rising edge of the gate driving signal SN as a compensation time for compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD. Therefore, compared to the conventional pixel circuit that can only compensate the threshold voltage of the driving transistor in the limited enabling period of the gate driving signal, the pixel circuit 100 of the present embodiment can increase the compensation time for the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD by lengthening the enabling time of the compensation control signal RN, thereby effectively improving the quality of the display.
Fig. 2A to 2G are circuit diagrams of the pixel circuit 100 according to the embodiment of fig. 1, illustrating pixel circuits 200 to 800 according to different embodiments of the invention. Referring to fig. 2A, the pixel circuit 200 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 210, a voltage compensation circuit 220, a data writing circuit 230, a light-emitting control circuit 240, and a light-emitting element EL.
The initialization circuit 210 includes transistors T1-T2. A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T1 is coupled to the input PIN, and a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T1 may commonly receive the previous stage of the gate driving signal SN-m. The transistor T1 may be connected in a Diode configuration (Diode Connection) to form a Diode. A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T2 is coupled to the driving terminal PD, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the transistor T2 is coupled to the system voltage VDD and an anode terminal of the light emitting element EL, and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T2 may receive the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m.

A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T4 is coupled to the reference voltage VREF, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the transistor T4 is coupled to the input terminal PIN, and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T4 receives the compensation control signal RN. The first terminal of the capacitor C1 is coupled to the input PIN, and the second terminal of the capacitor C1 is coupled to the driving terminal PD.
The data writing circuit 230 includes a transistor T5. A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T5 is coupled to the input PIN, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the transistor T5 receives the data voltage VDATA, and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T5 receives the gate driving signal SN.
The light emission control circuit 240 includes a transistor T6. A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T6 is coupled to the second terminal of the driving transistor TD, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the transistor T6 is coupled to the cathode terminal of the light emitting element EL, and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T6 receives the light emission control signal EM.
A first terminal of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the system voltage VSS, a second terminal of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the first terminal of the transistor T6, and a driving terminal PD of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the second terminal of the capacitor C1.
FIG. 3 is a waveform diagram illustrating an embodiment of the pixel circuits 200-800 of FIGS. 2A-2G according to the invention. For details of the operation of the pixel circuit 200, please refer to fig. 2A and fig. 3. In detail, when the pixel circuit 200 operates in the reset period TR, the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the emission control signal EM, the gate driving signal SN, and the compensation control signal RN may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level).
In this case, the transistor T1 of the initialization circuit 210 can provide the gate high voltage VGH to the input PIN according to the pulled-up previous gate driving signal SN-m, and the transistor T2 of the initialization circuit 210 can provide the system voltage VDD (i.e., the system high voltage) to the driving terminal PD according to the pulled-up previous gate driving signal SN-m. Therefore, the initialization circuit 210 can pull up the voltage levels of the input PIN and the driving terminal PD to perform the reset operation on the input PIN and the driving terminal PD, and turn on the driving transistor TD, thereby ensuring that the subsequent compensation operation can be performed smoothly.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 200 operates in the compensation phase TC, the compensation control signal RN may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the emission control signal EM, the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m, and the gate driving signal SN may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level).
In this case, the voltage compensation circuit 220 may provide the reference voltage VREF to the input PIN according to the compensation control signal RN being pulled up, and adjust the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to the sum of the voltage value of the system voltage VSS and the voltage value of the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD (i.e., VSS + VTH (where VSS is the voltage value of the system voltage VSS; VTH is the voltage value of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD)).
Then, when the pixel circuit 200 operates in the data writing period TDA, the gate driving signal SN may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the emission control signal EM, the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m, and the compensation control signal RN may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level).
In this case, the data writing circuit 230 may provide the data voltage VDATA to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN. At the same time, the voltage compensation circuit 220 may further raise the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to a voltage value of VSS + VTH + Δ V by the coupling effect of the capacitor C1, where Δ V is a variation amount of the voltage value when the input terminal PIN operates between the reset phase TR and the compensation phase TC (i.e., VDATA-VREF (where VDATA is a voltage value of the data voltage VDATA; VREF is a voltage value of the reference voltage VREF)).
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 200 operates in the light-emitting period TE, the light-emitting control signal EM may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the previous gate driving signal SN-m, the gate driving signal SN, and the compensation control signal RN may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level).
In this operation, the voltage level of the driving terminal PD of the driving transistor TD may be maintained at the voltage level (i.e., VSS + VTH + (VDATA-VREF)) during the data writing period TDA. Therefore, when the pixel circuit 200 is operated in the light-emitting period TE and the driving transistor TD is operated in the saturation region, the driving transistor TD can generate the on-current ID, thereby driving the light-emitting element EL. At this time, the on current ID flowing through the light emitting element EL can be represented by the following formula:
ID=K((VSS+VTH+VDATA-VREF)-VSS)-VTH)2
wherein, the ID is the current value of the conducting current ID; k is a process parameter of the driving transistor TD; VSS is the voltage value of system voltage VSS; VTH is a voltage value of a threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD; VDATA is a voltage value of the data voltage VDATA; VREF is the voltage value of the reference voltage VREF.
In other words, in the light-emitting period TE, the pixel circuit 200 can effectively eliminate the offset of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD caused by process variation. In addition, in the embodiment, since the enabling time of the compensation control signal RN is between the falling edge of the previous gate driving signal SN-m and the rising edge of the gate driving signal SN, the pixel circuit 200 can compensate the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD in the compensation period TC (or compensation time) for a long enough time, thereby improving the compensation effect of the pixel circuit 200.
Referring to fig. 2B, the pixel circuit 300 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 310, a voltage compensation circuit 320, a data writing circuit 330, a light-emitting control circuit 340, and a light-emitting element EL. The pixel circuit 300 is substantially the same as or similar to the pixel circuit 200, wherein the same or similar elements are given the same or similar reference numerals. Unlike the embodiment of fig. 2A, in the initialization circuit 310, the first terminal of the transistor T2 is coupled to the driving terminal PD, and the second terminal and the control terminal of the transistor T2 can commonly receive the previous stage of the gate driving signal SN-m.
In other words, in the embodiment shown in fig. 2B, when the pixel circuit 300 operates in the reset period TR (as shown in fig. 3), the transistor T2 of the initialization circuit 310 provides the gate high voltage VGH to the driving terminal PD according to the pulled-up previous stage gate driving signal SN-m to reset the driving terminal PD.

It should be noted that in the embodiment of fig. 2A and 2B, the pixels 200 and 300 can be formed by only 7 transistors, so that the pixels 200 and 300 can have the advantages of area saving and cost saving.
Referring to fig. 2C, the pixel circuit 400 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 410, a voltage compensation circuit 420, a data writing circuit 430, a light-emitting control circuit 440, and a light-emitting element EL. The pixel circuit 400 is substantially the same or similar to the pixel circuits 200, 300, wherein the same or similar elements are given the same or similar reference numerals. Unlike the embodiment of fig. 2A and 2B, the pixel circuit 400 further includes a leakage current compensation circuit 450 and a light emission control circuit 460.
The light emission control circuit 460 includes a transistor T8. A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the transistor T8 is coupled to the system voltage VSS, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the transistor T8 is coupled to a first terminal of the driving transistor TD, and a control terminal (i.e., a gate terminal) of the transistor T8 receives the light emission control signal EM.
The leakage current compensating circuit 450 includes a transistor T7. The first terminal (i.e., the source terminal) of the transistor T7 is coupled to the first terminal of the transistor T8, the second terminal (i.e., the drain terminal) of the transistor T7 is coupled to the second terminal of the transistor T8, and the control terminal (i.e., the gate terminal) of the transistor T7 receives the compensation control signal RN.
For details of the operation of the pixel circuit 400, please refer to fig. 2C and fig. 3. In detail, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the reset period TR, the transistor T1 of the initialization circuit 410 provides the gate high voltage VGH to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up previous gate driving signal SN-m, and the transistor T2 of the initialization circuit 410 provides the gate high voltage VGH to the driving terminal PD according to the pulled-up previous gate driving signal SN-m. Therefore, the initialization circuit 410 can pull up the voltage levels of the input PIN and the driving terminal PD to perform the reset operation on the input PIN and the driving terminal PD, and make the driving transistor TD turned on to ensure that the subsequent compensation operation can be performed smoothly.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the compensation phase TC, the voltage compensation circuit 420 provides the reference voltage VREF to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up compensation control signal RN, and adjusts the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to be the sum of the voltage value of the system voltage VSS and the voltage value of the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD (i.e., VSS + VTH).
It should be noted that, in order to avoid the pixel circuit 400 generating an excessive leakage current in the driving transistor TD during the compensation period of a long time, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the compensation stage TC, the transistor T7 of the leakage current compensation circuit 450 can be turned on according to the compensation control signal RN being pulled high, thereby forming a leakage current leakage path. Therefore, the leakage current compensation circuit 450 can drain the leakage current generated by the driving transistor TD to the system voltage VSS (i.e. the system low voltage) through the leakage current drain path during the compensation phase TC. As such, the pixel circuit 400 of the present embodiment can effectively suppress the transient leakage current generated by the driving transistor TD.
Particularly, in order to avoid the excessive leakage current, in the design of the leakage current compensation circuit 450, the aspect ratio of the transistor T7 may be designed to be smaller than the aspect ratio of the transistor T8, but the invention is not limited thereto.
Then, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the data writing period TDA, the data writing circuit 430 can provide the data voltage VDATA to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN. At the same time, the voltage compensation circuit 420 can further raise the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to a voltage value of VSS + VTH + Δ V by the coupling effect of the capacitor C1, where Δ V is a variation amount of the voltage value (i.e., VDATA-VREF) when the input terminal PIN operates between the reset phase TR and the compensation phase TC.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the light-emitting phase TE, the voltage level of the driving terminal PD of the driving transistor TD can be maintained at the voltage level (i.e., VSS + VTH + (VDATA-VREF)) in the data writing phase TDA. Therefore, when the pixel circuit 400 operates in the light-emitting period TE and the driving transistor TD operates in the saturation region, the driving transistor TD can generate the on-current ID, thereby driving the light-emitting element EL. At this time, the on current ID flowing through the light emitting element EL can be represented by the following formula:
ID=K((VSS+VTH+VDATA-VREF)-VSS)-VTH)2
in other words, the pixel circuit 400 can also effectively eliminate the shift of the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD caused by process variation during the light-emitting period TE. In addition, the pixel circuit 400 can also perform a compensation operation on the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD in the compensation phase TC (or compensation time) for a long enough time, thereby improving the compensation effect of the pixel circuit 400.
Referring to fig. 2D, the pixel circuit 500 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 510, a voltage compensation circuit 520, a data writing circuit 530, light emitting control circuits 540 and 560, a leakage current compensation circuit 550, and a light emitting element EL. The pixel circuit 500 is substantially the same or similar to the pixel circuit 400, wherein the same or similar elements are given the same or similar reference numerals. Unlike the embodiment of fig. 2C, in the voltage compensation circuit 520, the first terminal of the transistor T4 is coupled to the second terminal of the transistor T7.
Referring to fig. 2D and fig. 3, details of the implementation of the pixel circuit 500 in the reset phase TR can be analogized with reference to the related description of fig. 2C, and thus are not repeated.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 500 operates in the compensation phase TC, the transistors T3, T4, T7 can be turned on according to the compensation control signal RN being pulled high. In this case, the transistors T4, T7 may supply the system voltage VSS to the input PIN through a conduction path. The voltage compensation circuit 520 and the leakage current compensation circuit 550 can adjust the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to the sum of the system voltage VSS and the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD (i.e., VSS + VTH) according to the pulled-up compensation control signal RN.
Similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 2C, in the present embodiment, the pixel circuit 500 can also leak the instantaneous leakage current generated by the driving transistor TD to the system voltage VSS (i.e., the system low voltage) through the leakage current leakage path formed by the leakage current compensation circuit 550 during the compensation phase TC.
Then, when the pixel circuit 500 operates in the data writing period TDA, the transistor T5 can be turned on according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN. In this case, the data writing circuit 530 may provide the data voltage VDATA to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN. At the same time, the voltage compensation circuit 520 can further pull up the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to a voltage value of VDATA + VTH by the coupling effect of the capacitor C1.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 500 operates in the light-emitting period TE, the transistors T6 and T8 can be turned on according to the pulled-up light-emitting control signal EM. In this operation, the voltage level of the driving terminal PD of the driving transistor TD can be maintained at the voltage level (i.e., VDATA + VTH) in the data writing period TDA. Therefore, when the pixel circuit 500 operates in the light-emitting period TE and the driving transistor TD operates in the saturation region, the driving transistor TD can generate the on-current ID, thereby driving the light-emitting element EL. At this time, the on current ID flowing through the light emitting element EL can be represented by the following formula:
ID=K((VDATA+VTH)-VSS)-VTH)2
in other words, in the light-emitting period TE, the pixel circuit 500 can also effectively eliminate the threshold voltage offset of the driving transistor TD caused by process variations. Moreover, the pixel circuit 500 can also perform a compensation operation on the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD in the compensation phase TC (or compensation time) for a long enough time, thereby improving the compensation effect of the pixel circuit 500.

Similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 2D, the pixel circuit 700 can release the transient leakage current generated by the driving transistor TD to the reference voltage VREF through the leakage current release path formed by the transistor T7 of the leakage current compensation circuit 750 and the transistor T4 of the voltage compensation circuit 720 during the compensation phase TC.

It is noted that, for the embodiments of fig. 1, 2A to 2G and 3, the compensation control signal RN received by each pixel circuit (e.g., the pixel circuits 100-800) may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level) in the current Frame (Frame) according to some design requirements. That is, each pixel circuit can compensate the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD in the current frame.
On the other hand, referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a waveform diagram illustrating another embodiment of the pixel circuit of fig. 2A to 2G according to the invention. In other design requirements, each pixel circuit may also pre-enable the compensation control signal RN in a previous frame, so that the pixel circuit may pre-start the compensation operation on the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD in the previous frame. Therefore, the pixel circuit of the present embodiment can further extend the time interval of the compensation phase TC to improve the effect of the threshold voltage on the quality of the display image.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a pixel circuit 900 according to another embodiment of the invention. Referring to fig. 5, the pixel circuit 900 includes a driving transistor TD, an initialization circuit 910, a voltage compensation circuit 920, a data writing circuit 930, a light-emitting control circuit 940, and a light-emitting device EL. An anode terminal of the light emitting element EL is coupled to the system voltage VDD, and a cathode terminal of the light emitting element EL is coupled to the light emission control circuit 940. The light emitting element EL can be correspondingly lighted according to the on current ID.
A first terminal (i.e., a source terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the system voltage VSS, a second terminal (i.e., a drain terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the light-emitting control circuit 940, and a driving terminal PD (i.e., a gate terminal) of the driving transistor TD is coupled to the initialization circuit 910.
The initialization circuit 910 is coupled to the input PIN and the driving terminal PD. The initialization circuit 910 is configured to adjust the voltage levels of the input terminal PN and the driving terminal PD according to the gate driving signal SN and the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m based on the reference voltage VREF (or the system voltage VDD). The voltage compensation circuit 920 is coupled to the initialization circuit 920. The voltage compensation circuit 920 may be configured to adjust the voltage level of the driving terminal PD according to the gate driving signal SN and the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m in the compensation stage.
On the other hand, the data write circuit 930 is coupled to the input PIN. The data write circuit 930 is configured to provide the data voltage VDATA to the input PIN according to the gate driving signal SN. The light-emitting control circuit 940 is coupled to the cathode terminal of the light-emitting element EL, the voltage compensation circuit 920 and the second terminal of the driving transistor TD. The light-emitting control circuit 940 controls the light-emitting state of the light-emitting element EL according to the control signal CS.
It should be noted that the control signal CS of the present embodiment can be, for example, the gate driving signal SN, the emission control signal EM, or the post-stage gate driving signal SN + i. The control signal CS may be generated by a control signal generator (not shown), for example. The control signal generator (not shown) may be implemented by one or more GOA circuits.
For the operation of the pixel circuit 900, specifically, when the pixel circuit 900 operates in the compensation phase of a pixel period, the voltage compensation circuit 920 adjusts the voltage level of the driving end PD of the driving transistor TD according to the pulled-down gate driving signal SN and the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m, thereby compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD.
Further, in this embodiment, the compensation phase may be set to be between the falling edge of the previous gate driving signal SN-m and the rising edge of the gate driving signal SN. For example, the pixel circuit 900 may continue to perform the compensation operation for compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD after the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m is switched from the enabled state to the disabled state (e.g., from a high voltage level to a low voltage level) until the gate driving signal SN is to be switched from the disabled state to the enabled state (e.g., from a low voltage level to a high voltage level).
That is, the present embodiment may use a time interval between a falling edge of the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m and a rising edge of the gate driving signal SN as a compensation time for compensating the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD. Therefore, compared to the conventional pixel circuit that can only compensate the threshold voltage of the driving transistor in the limited enabling period of the gate driving signal, the pixel circuit 900 of the present embodiment can increase the compensation time for the threshold voltage of the driving transistor TD by lengthening the operation time of the compensation stage, thereby effectively improving the quality of the display screen.

Fig. 7 is a waveform diagram of the pixel circuits 1000, 1100 of fig. 6A-6B according to the invention. For details of the operation of the pixel circuit 1000, please refer to fig. 6A and fig. 7 at the same time. In detail, when the pixel circuit 1000 operates in the reset phase TR, the previous stage gate driving signal SN-m may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the gate driving signal SN may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level).
In this case, the transistor T1 of the initialization circuit 1010 can provide the gate high voltage VGH to the control terminal of the transistors T3 and T5 according to the pulled-up previous gate driving signal SN-m, so that the transistors T3 and T5 are turned on. Then, the transistor T5 can provide the gate high voltage VGH to the driving terminal PD through a conducting path. In addition, the transistor T3 may also provide the reference voltage VREF to the input PIN through the conducting path. Therefore, the initialization circuit 1010 can pull up the voltage levels of the input PIN and the driving terminal PD to perform the reset operation on the input PIN and the driving terminal PD, and turn on the driving transistor TD, thereby ensuring that the subsequent compensation operation can be performed smoothly.
On the other hand, when the pixel circuit 1000 operates in the compensation phase TC, the previous gate driving signal SN-m and the previous gate driving signal SN may be both set to the disable state (e.g., low voltage level). In this case, the transistor T5 of the voltage compensation circuit 1020 maintains the voltage level of the control terminal at the voltage value of the gate high voltage VGH according to the pulled-down previous gate driving signal SN-m and the gate driving signal SN. The transistor T5 adjusts the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to the sum of the system voltage VSS and the threshold voltage VTH of the driving transistor TD (i.e., VSS + VTH) through the conduction path.
In addition, the transistor T3 can still maintain the voltage level of the input PIN at the voltage value of the reference voltage VREF through the conduction path.
Then, when the pixel circuit 1000 operates in the light-emitting period TE, the gate driving signal SN may be set to an enabled state (e.g., a high voltage level), and the previous-stage gate driving signal SN-m may be set to a disabled state (e.g., a low voltage level). In this case, the data writing circuit 1030 may provide the data voltage VDATA to the input terminal PIN according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN. At the same time, the initialization circuit 1010 may further raise the voltage level of the driving terminal PD to a voltage value of VSS + VTH + Δ V by the coupling effect of the capacitor C1, where Δ V is a change amount of the voltage value when the input terminal PIN operates between the reset phase TR and the compensation phase TC (i.e., VDATA — VREF (where VDATA is a voltage value of the data voltage VDATA; VREF is a voltage value of the reference voltage VREF)).
Besides, in the light-emitting period TE, the transistor T7 of the light-emitting control circuit 1040 can be turned on according to the pulled-up gate driving signal SN, and the driving transistor TD can generate the on-current ID according to the voltage on the driving terminal PD, thereby driving the light-emitting element EL.
