For the problem of how to improve the driving performance and the display performance of the display device, the inventor finds, through a lot of experiments and researches, that the phenomenon that the analog power supply voltage signal of the power supply of the display device is too large has a serious influence on the driving performance and the display performance of the display device, and further finds the reason of the phenomenon after researching the phenomenon and proposes:
the ideal process for driving the display panel by the power management unit is as follows: the power management unit outputs an analog power voltage signal, and generates a first voltage signal AVEE and a second voltage signal VGL after level conversion, in an ideal state, the output time sequence of the first voltage signal should be earlier than that of the second voltage signal, and the first voltage signal is greater than the second voltage signal.
Based on the above research and findings, embodiments of the present invention provide a display device and a method of using the same to solve the above problems.
As shown in fig. 1, a first embodiment of the present invention proposes a display device including: power management unit, driver chip, display panel and protection unit, wherein:
the driving chip performs level conversion according to the analog power voltage signal AVDD output by the power management unit, and generates a first voltage signal AVEE between the first voltage unit and a second voltage signal VGL (not shown in fig. 1) between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, the second voltage signal being used for driving the display panel;
the protection unit is used for acting according to the voltage difference of the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal so as to prevent the parasitic diode from being conducted.
In this embodiment, the driving IC level-converts the analog power voltage signal AVDD from the power management unit, first generates a first voltage signal AVEE for controlling the driving circuit of the display device, and outputs a second voltage signal VGL of a dc low level after the level conversion of the first voltage signal, so as to drive the display panel. In the driving process of the display device in the embodiment of the invention, due to the inherent structure of the circuit in the prior art, a parasitic diode exists between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, and when the parasitic diode is conducted, the problem of overlarge analog power supply voltage signal can occur, so that abnormal driving and display of the display panel are caused.
In a specific example, as shown in fig. 1, the protection unit is disposed outside the driver chip, for example, on the FPC flexible circuit board, in this example, the parasitic diode conduction between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal can be avoided by the protection unit located outside the driver chip without changing the circuit structures of the driver chip and the display panel, and the structural design is simple and the cost is effectively controlled.
In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the protection unit is disposed in the driving chip. According to the embodiment of the invention, the protection unit is integrated in the driving chip, so that the installation space of the protection unit is further reduced on the basis of realizing the protection of the display device, the space utilization rate is improved, and the volume of the display device is effectively reduced.
It should be noted that, the setting position and the specific structure of the protection unit are not specifically limited in the present invention, and those skilled in the art should set the protection unit according to practical application requirements to implement that the protection unit performs an action according to the voltage difference between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal to avoid the conduction of the parasitic diode between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal as a design criterion, which is not described herein again.
In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the protection unit includes a comparator and a gating switch, where the comparator includes a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and an output terminal, where the first input terminal is connected to the first voltage signal, the second input terminal is connected to the second voltage signal, and the comparator compares a difference value between the first voltage signal AVEE and the second voltage signal VGL according to a preset voltage difference threshold and outputs a comparison result from the output terminal;
the gating switch comprises a gating enabling input end, a gating first input end, a gating second input end and a gating output end, wherein the gating enabling input end is connected to the comparison result, the gating first input end is connected to the second voltage signal VGL, the gating second input end is connected to a preset voltage signal, and the gating switch selectively outputs the second voltage signal or the preset voltage signal to the display panel according to the comparison result so as to prevent the parasitic diode from being conducted.
In the embodiment of the present invention, for example, the protection unit is located outside the driving chip, as shown in fig. 3, a first voltage signal is input through a first input end of a comparator, a second voltage signal is input through a second input end of the comparator, a difference is made between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal in the comparator to obtain an actual voltage difference value, the actual voltage difference value is compared with a voltage difference threshold preset in the comparator, and a comparison result is output from an output end to the gate switch, so that the gate switch operates according to the comparison result.
In an optional embodiment, the comparator outputs a first comparison result in response to the second voltage signal being greater than the first voltage signal and the voltage difference therebetween being greater than the preset voltage difference threshold, and otherwise outputs a second comparison result.

The preset voltage threshold of the embodiment of the invention is a voltage difference threshold of the second voltage signal and the first voltage signal, which can prevent the parasitic diode from being conducted, for example, if the minimum conducting voltage of the parasitic diode is 0.3V, the preset voltage threshold may be 0.2V. In a specific example, taking the preset voltage threshold as 0.2V as an example, when the voltage value of the second voltage signal is 1.0V and the voltage value of the first voltage signal is 0.6V, the voltage value of the second voltage signal is greater than the voltage value of the first voltage signal, the actual voltage difference between the two voltage signals is 0.4V, and at this time, the actual voltage difference is 0.4V > the preset voltage difference threshold 0.2V, and at this time, the comparator performs a comparison and judgment according to the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal to output a first comparison result, so as to effectively control the conduction of the parasitic diode.
In an optional embodiment, the gate switch outputs the preset voltage signal to the display panel according to the input first comparison result to prevent the parasitic diode from being turned on. Specifically, after the comparator outputs the first comparison result for preventing the parasitic diode from being turned on, the gate switch outputs a low-level preset voltage signal according to the first comparison result, in a specific example, the voltage value of the second voltage signal is 1.0V, and the voltage value of the first voltage signal is 0.6V, and the gate switch outputs a low-level preset voltage signal to the driving panel according to the first comparison result, for example, 0.5V.
In another alternative embodiment, the gate switch outputs the second voltage signal VGL to the display panel to drive the display panel according to the input second comparison result. Specifically, if the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are sequentially output according to the output timing sequence, the stable output that the first voltage signal is greater than the second voltage signal is maintained, and at this time, the comparator outputs the second comparison result according to the obtained determination result that the first voltage signal is greater than the second voltage signal. The gating switch outputs the second voltage signal to the display panel through the output end according to the second comparison result, so that the problem of overlarge analog power supply voltage signal is avoided, and normal driving and displaying of the display panel are effectively ensured.
In this embodiment, the comparator is used to compare the voltage values between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, monitor the state of the parasitic diode between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal in real time, and perform driving protection on the display device through the gating switch. The gating switch outputs a low-level preset voltage signal as a second voltage signal to the display panel according to the comparison result, so that the first voltage signal is ensured to be always in a state of being larger than the second voltage signal in the driving process, the phenomenon that a parasitic diode is conducted due to the fact that the first voltage signal is smaller than the second voltage signal is avoided, the analog power supply voltage signal is effectively controlled, the driving stability of the display device is kept, and the wide application prospect is achieved.

And the driving chip performs level conversion according to the analog power supply voltage signal AVDD to generate a first voltage signal AVEE and a second voltage signal VGL for driving the display panel. The first voltage signal and the second voltage signal are output in response to the output timing. Parasitic diodes are present between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal due to the inherent structure of the driving circuit.
The protection unit operates according to a voltage difference between the first voltage signal AVEE and the second voltage signal VGL to prevent the parasitic diode from being turned on, and the specific step further includes:
the comparator compares the difference value of the first voltage signal AVEE and the second voltage signal VGL according to a preset voltage difference threshold value and outputs the comparison result from the output end.
And the gating switch selectively outputs a second voltage signal or a preset voltage signal to the display panel according to the comparison result so as to prevent the parasitic diode from being conducted.
In one specific example, in response to the first voltage signal being less than the second voltage signal, the actual voltage difference between the two being greater than a preset voltage difference threshold, the comparator outputs a first comparison result. Furthermore, the gating switch outputs a low-level preset voltage signal according to the first comparison result, so that the problem of overlarge analog power supply voltage signal caused by the conduction of a parasitic diode between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal can be avoided, and the normal driving and display of the display panel can be realized.
In another specific example, in response to the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal, the comparator compares a second comparison result that the first voltage signal is greater than the second voltage signal and outputs the second comparison result to the gate switch, so that the gate switch directly outputs the second voltage signal to the display panel according to the second comparison result, and a parasitic diode between the first voltage signal and the second voltage signal is not turned on, thereby achieving normal driving and display of the display panel.

As shown in fig. 4, the anode of the protection diode is electrically connected to the second voltage signal VGL, and the cathode of the protection diode is electrically connected to the first voltage signal AVEE. In a specific example, the turn-on voltage of the protection diode is 0.2V, the turn-on voltage of the parasitic diode is 0.3V, and the protection diode can be turned on in response to the voltage difference between the first voltage signal and the second telecommunication signal, so that the turn-on of the parasitic diode is avoided, the problem of overlarge analog power supply voltage signal is solved, and the driving and display of the display panel are effectively protected.
