Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that numerous technical details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application in various embodiments of the present invention. However, the technical solution claimed in the present application can be implemented without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.
The first embodiment of the present invention relates to a driving method, and the core of the present embodiment lies in being applied to a pixel driving circuit; the driving method comprises a first frequency driving mode and a second frequency driving mode, wherein the first frequency is less than the second frequency; in the first frequency driving mode, the data signal of the pixel driving circuit includes: a write phase and a hold phase; in the hold phase, the light emission control signal of the control signal terminal of the pixel driving circuit includes a plurality of high-level pulse signals.
In this embodiment, since the first frequency of the first frequency driving mode is lower than the second frequency of the second frequency driving mode, it can be understood that the screen refresh rate (i.e. the number of times that the screen is refreshed per second of frame) is lower in the first frequency driving mode. In the low-frequency refreshing display application scene, if the light and dark changes of the screen are easily captured by human eyes when the frequency of the light-emitting control signals is low, the display screen is easy to have light and dark flickering feeling, so that a plurality of high-level pulse signals are additionally added to the light-emitting control signals which are originally in the maintaining stage in the low-frequency display frame picture, the display screen which is originally in the light-emitting state in the maintaining stage flickers for a plurality of times, and the flickering frequency of the display screen is improved. Since the higher the flicker frequency of the screen is, the less easily the brightness change of the screen is perceived by human eyes, the improvement in the present embodiment can visually reduce the brightness change of the screen, reduce the brightness flicker of the display screen, and thereby improve the user experience.
The following describes the implementation details of the driving method of the present embodiment in detail, and the following is only provided for the convenience of understanding and is not necessary for implementing the present embodiment.
The driving method includes a first frequency driving mode and a second frequency driving mode, wherein the first frequency is less than the second frequency. The first frequency and the second frequency as referred to herein refer to the refresh frequency of the display screen, i.e., the number of times the screen is refreshed per second of frame. Because the first frequency is less than the second frequency, the first frequency driving mode can be understood as a low-frequency driving mode, and at this time, the display screen is in a low-frequency refreshing application scene; the second frequency driving mode may be understood as a high frequency driving mode when the display screen is in a high frequency refresh application scenario. In practical applications, when the display content of the display screen needs to be refreshed quickly, the display screen is generally in a high-frequency refresh application scenario to implement quick refreshing of the display content of the display screen, for example: and the display screen is in a high-frequency refreshing application scene in the game scene, namely in a second frequency driving mode. When the display content of the display screen does not need to be refreshed quickly, the display screen is generally in a low-frequency refresh application scenario to reduce switching loss and save power, for example: the display screen is in a low-frequency refreshing application scene in a reading scene, namely in a first frequency driving mode.
In the first frequency driving mode, i.e. the low frequency refresh application scenario, the timing diagram of the pixel driving circuit in the related art is shown in fig. 1: one of the refresh frequency cycles corresponds to a writing phase (i.e. a phase of refreshing and writing the driving voltage) and a holding phase (i.e. an interval of converting the driving voltage into the OLED current for emitting light) of the data signal.
The write phase is referred to as the "Vdata interval" shown in FIG. 1. In the writing stage, each data signal line outputs different voltage signals to write different data signals into the capacitors of the pixel driving circuits corresponding to different OLED devices. In the writing stage, the emission control signal EM pulse turns off the display circuit, so that the OLED display device is in a non-emission state. It should be noted that the emission control signal EM pulse may include one or more high-level pulse signals during the writing period according to the structure and driving principle of the pixel driving circuit. In this embodiment, the writing-stage emission control signal EM pulse shown in fig. 1 includes 1 high-level pulse signal, which is only for illustration and should not be limited to that shown in the drawings. In this embodiment, the write phase includes: an initialization phase and a capacitance charging phase of the pixel driving circuit.
The hold phase is referred to as the "hold frame interval" shown in fig. 1. In the holding phase, the voltage signal written into the capacitor in the writing phase is held at the grid of the driving transistor, and the OLED device of the pixel driving circuit is driven to emit light for display. In the hold phase, each data signal line may be switched in a stable high level signal or a stable low level signal, and at this time, the emission control signal EM pulse is maintained at the low level to keep the OLED device stably emitting light for displaying. In fig. 1 of the present embodiment, one stable high level signal Vskip is applied to each data signal line in the hold stage, which is only for illustration and should not be limited to that shown in the drawing.
In the writing stage, the emission control signal EM pulse turns off the display circuit, so that the OLED display device is in a non-emission state, and in the holding stage, the emission control signal EM pulse is maintained at a low level to keep the OLED device emitting light stably for display. Therefore, in the low-frequency refreshing display application scene, if the frequency of the light-emitting control signal is low, the brightness change of the screen is easily captured by human eyes, and the display screen is easy to generate a brightness flicker feeling, so that the use experience of a user is not high.
In view of this, the inventor found that, since human eyes have different flicker sensitivity responses to different frequencies, the higher the flicker frequency of the screen, the less noticeable the change in brightness of the screen is to human eyes. Therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of high-level pulse signals are additionally added to the emission control signal EM pulse in the hold stage in the original low-frequency display of one frame of picture, as shown in fig. 2, 3 high-level pulse signals are added to the emission control signal EM pulse in the hold stage, so that the display screen which is originally always in the emission state in the hold stage flickers for a plurality of times, and the flicker frequency of the display screen is improved. In this way, the present embodiment can visually reduce the degree of change in brightness of the screen, reduce the flickering sensation of the display screen, and improve the user experience. It should be noted that, except that the diagram of the emission control signal EM pulse in the hold phase in fig. 2 is different from that in fig. 1, the rest of fig. 2 is the same as that shown in fig. 1, and reference may be made to the description in fig. 1, and the description is not repeated here. And the number of the high-level pulse signals shown in fig. 2, which are increased in the emission control signal EM pulse in the hold phase, is only for convenience of illustration and is not limited to that shown in the drawing.
Alternatively, the time of each of the plurality of high-level pulse signals is the same, and the time of each of the high-level pulse signals is the same as the time of a single high-level pulse signal of the light emission control signal in the writing phase.
Alternatively, in the first frequency driving mode, the frequency of the light emission control signal is not less than 60 hz. Since the human eye is insensitive to the flicker response with a higher frequency (about 60hz or more), in this embodiment, after the light emission control signal EM pulse in the hold phase is increased by a plurality of high-level pulse signals, the frequency of the obtained light emission control signal EM pulse is not less than 60hz, so as to ensure that the flicker frequency of the screen is not less than 60hz, and thus, the user can hardly catch the change of brightness of the screen visually, and the use experience of the user is further improved.
In the first frequency driving mode, when the first frequency is 10hz, the light-emitting control signal at least comprises 5 high-level pulse signals in the holding period. In this way, no matter whether the emission control signal EM pulse during the writing phase includes one or more high level pulse signals, after the emission control signal EM pulse during the holding phase is increased by at least 5 high level pulse signals, the frequency of the emission control signal EM pulse is inevitably not less than 60hz, so as to ensure that the flicker frequency of the screen is not less than 60 hz.
FIG. 3 is a graph showing a luminance curve and a frequency spectrum of a display controlled by the pixel driving circuit according to the timing chart shown in FIG. 1 when the screen refresh frequency is 10hz in the prior art; fig. 4 shows that when the screen refresh frequency is 10hz, 5 high-level pulse signals are inserted into the light-emitting control signal in the hold phase, and the time of each high-level pulse signal is the same as the time of a single high-level pulse signal of the light-emitting control signal in the write phase, so as to control the luminance curve and the spectrum curve displayed by the pixel driving circuit. As can be seen from fig. 3 and 4, the spectral diagram of fig. 4 has fewer low-frequency flicker components less than 50hz, and the human eye flicker perception is significantly improved.
Compared with the related art, the embodiment of the invention provides a driving method, and since the first frequency of the first frequency driving mode is lower than the second frequency of the second frequency driving mode, it can be understood that the screen refresh rate (i.e. the number of times that the screen is refreshed per second) is lower when in the first frequency driving mode. In the low-frequency refreshing display application scene, if the light and dark changes of the screen are easily captured by human eyes when the frequency of the light-emitting control signals is low, the display screen is easy to have light and dark flickering feeling, so that a plurality of high-level pulse signals are additionally added to the light-emitting control signals EM which are originally in the maintaining stage in the low-frequency display frame picture, the display screen which is originally in the light-emitting state in the maintaining stage flickers for a plurality of times, and the flickering frequency of the display screen is improved. Since the higher the flicker frequency of the screen is, the less easily the brightness change of the screen is perceived by human eyes, the improvement in the present embodiment can visually reduce the brightness change of the screen, reduce the brightness flicker of the display screen, and thereby improve the user experience.
A second embodiment of the present invention relates to a pixel drive circuit, as shown in fig. 5, including: a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a fourth transistor T4, a fifth transistor T5, a sixth transistor T6, a seventh transistor T7, a capacitor C1 and an organic light emitting diode D, wherein the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5, the sixth transistor T6 and the seventh transistor T7 respectively have a control terminal, a first terminal and a second terminal, for example: the control terminal may be a gate of the thin film transistor, and the first terminal and the second terminal may be one of a source and a drain of the thin film transistor.

The driving transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 shown in fig. 5 may be N-type thin film transistors or P-type thin film transistors. The source and drain of the transistor may be interchanged depending on the type of transistor used.
The pixel driving circuit comprises a first frequency driving mode and a second frequency driving mode, wherein the first frequency is less than the second frequency; in the first frequency driving mode, the data signal provided by the data line of the pixel driving circuit comprises: a write phase and a hold phase; in the hold phase, the light emission control signal is configured to include a plurality of high-level pulse signals.
Since the first frequency of the first frequency driving mode is lower than the second frequency of the second frequency driving mode, it can be understood that the screen refresh rate (i.e. the number of times that the screen is refreshed every second frame) is lower in the first frequency driving mode. In the low-frequency refreshing display application scene, if the light and dark changes of the screen are easily captured by human eyes when the frequency of the light-emitting control signals is low, the display screen is easy to have light and dark flickering feeling, so that a plurality of high-level pulse signals are additionally added to the light-emitting control signals which are originally in the maintaining stage in the low-frequency display frame picture, the display screen which is originally in the light-emitting state in the maintaining stage flickers for a plurality of times, and the flickering frequency of the display screen is improved. Since the higher the flicker frequency of the screen is, the less easily the brightness change of the screen is perceived by human eyes, the improvement in the present embodiment can visually reduce the brightness change of the screen, reduce the brightness flicker of the display screen, and thereby improve the user experience.
Since this embodiment is a pixel driving circuit embodiment corresponding to the driving method, implementation details in the driving method embodiment can be applied to this embodiment, and implementation details of the pixel driving circuit structure in this embodiment can also be applied to the driving method embodiment, which is not described herein again.
Alternatively, the time of each of the plurality of high-level pulse signals is the same, and the time of each of the high-level pulse signals is the same as the time of a single high-level pulse signal of the light emission control signal in the writing phase.
Alternatively, in the first frequency driving mode, the frequency of the light emission control signal is not less than 60 hz. Since the human eye is insensitive to the flicker response with a higher frequency (about 60hz or more), in this embodiment, after the light emission control signal EM pulse in the hold phase is increased by a plurality of high-level pulse signals, the frequency of the obtained light emission control signal EM pulse is not less than 60hz, so as to ensure that the flicker frequency of the screen is not less than 60hz, and thus, the user can hardly catch the change of brightness of the screen visually, and the use experience of the user is further improved.
In the first frequency driving mode, when the first frequency is 10hz, the light-emitting control signal at least comprises 5 high-level pulse signals in the holding period. In this way, no matter whether the emission control signal EM pulse during the writing phase includes one or more high level pulse signals, after the emission control signal EM pulse during the holding phase is increased by at least 5 high level pulse signals, the frequency of the emission control signal EM pulse is inevitably not less than 60hz, so as to ensure that the flicker frequency of the screen is not less than 60 hz.
