In the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating relative importance or as implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, unless otherwise specified, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature; the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art as appropriate.
The present application is described in detail below with reference to the figures and alternative embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a pixel driving circuit 110 of the present application, disclosing a pixel driving circuit 110, the pixel driving circuit 110 comprising: a capacitor circuit 111, a light-emitting circuit 112, a data input circuit 113, and a compensation circuit 114; the capacitor circuit 111 is electrically connected to a first node G, a second node S, and a third node a, and the capacitor circuit 111 stores a voltage of the first node G, a voltage of the second node S, and a voltage of the third node a; the light emitting circuit 112 is electrically connected to the first node G, the second node S, the third node a, and the fourth node B, and the light emitting circuit 112 is connected to a first control signal S1 and emits light under the control of the first control signal S1 and the voltage of the first node G; the data input circuit 113 is electrically connected to the first node G, the data input circuit 113 accesses a third control signal S3 and a data signal, and transmits the data signal to the first node G under the control of the third control signal S3; the compensation circuit 114 is electrically connected to the first node G and the fourth node B, the compensation circuit 114 is connected to a second control signal S2, and transmits the voltage of the first node G to the fourth node B under the control of the second control signal S2, and performs compensation charging on the second node S through the voltage of the fourth node B under the control of the voltage of the first node G.
The present application compensates the light emitting circuit 112 by providing the compensation circuit 114. After the data signal input by the data input circuit 113 is transmitted to the fourth node B under the action of the second control signal S2, the second node S is compensated and charged by the fourth node B. That is, the threshold voltage of the second active switch T2 of each pixel is effectively compensated, and the second node S can be directly compensated and charged under the action of the second control signal S2 without designing a threshold voltage monitoring circuit of the second active switch T2. The compensation circuit of the pixel driving circuit 110 has a simple structure, reduces the number of active switches used in practice, and further reduces the design space, so that the area of each pixel can be further reduced, the total number of pixels in a display panel with the same size is increased, that is, the PPI (per pixel in) is improved, the granular sensation of the display panel can be reduced, and the display effect is improved. PPI (pixels per inch) is the unit of image resolution, which represents the number of pixels (pixels) that are owned per inch. Thus, a higher PPI value means that the display screen can display images with higher density. The higher the display density is, the higher the simulation degree is, so as to realize high-definition and ultra-high-definition display. Secondly, the design of the compensation circuit 114 can eliminate the influence of the threshold voltage on the circuit, reduce the occurrence of the afterimage, and improve the display quality.
Specifically, the light emitting circuit 112 includes a first active switch T1, a second active switch T2, a third active switch T3, and a light emitting device; a control end of the first active switch T1 is connected to the first control signal S1, an input end of the first active switch T1 is electrically connected to the third node a, an output end of the first active switch T1 is electrically connected to the fourth node B, and the third node a is electrically connected to a first power signal VDD; a control end of the second active switch T2 is electrically connected to the first node G, an input end of the second active switch T2 is electrically connected to the fourth node B, and an output end of the second active switch T2 is electrically connected to the second node S; the control end of the third active switch T3 is connected to the first control signal S1, the input end of the third active switch T3 is electrically connected to the second node S, the output end of the first active switch T1 is electrically connected to the anode of the light emitting device, and the cathode of the light emitting device is electrically connected to the second power signal VSS.
The data input circuit 113 inputs a data signal from the control terminal of the second active switch T2, that is, the data signal is input to the first node G, and the potential change of the second node S is changed by the potential change of the first node G, so that the voltage of the second node S is different when the voltage of the first node G is different, and the luminance of the light emitting device is different, thereby achieving the purpose that the luminance of the light emitting device is different under different data signals. However, the threshold voltage of the second active switch T2 is affected by the process, and the threshold voltages of two different second active switches T2 in different processes or the same process may have a slight difference, so that there may be a problem that the brightness of two pixels is different due to the different threshold voltages of the second active switches T2 in the same data signal, thereby causing uneven brightness. The threshold voltage is compensated by the compensation circuit 114, and the compensation circuit 114 is described in detail below. It should be noted that the light emitting device may be an active light emitting device, such as an organic light emitting diode, where the organic light emitting diode corresponding to each pixel is a red organic light emitting diode, a green organic light emitting diode, a blue organic light emitting diode, and may further include a white organic light emitting diode.

Specifically, the timing sequence of the pixel driving circuit 110 includes a compensation phase; in the compensation stage, the first control signal S1 is a low voltage, the second control signal S2 is a high voltage, the third control signal S3 is a high voltage, the data input circuit 113 outputs a first preset voltage of a data signal to the first node G, when the second control signal S2 is a high voltage, the fourth active switch T4 is turned on, and the first preset voltage of the first node G is output to the fourth node B; when the first preset voltage is a high voltage, the second active switch T2 is turned on, the voltage of the fourth node B charges the second node S, and when a voltage difference between the voltage of the first node G and the second node S is equal to a threshold voltage of the second active switch T2, the second active switch T2 is turned off. In the compensation stage, the voltage of the second node S is raised to a level different from the voltage of the first node G by the threshold voltage of the second active switch T2. At this time, the voltage of the first node G is V 1 The potential of the second node S is V 1 -V th
Specifically, the capacitor circuit 111 includes a first capacitor C1 and a second capacitor C2, one end of the first capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the first node G, and the other end is electrically connected to the second node S; one end of the second capacitor C2 is electrically connected to the second node S, and the other end is electrically connected to the third node a.

Unlike low-temperature LTPS (polycrystalline silicon) TFTs, there is no need to crystallize the semiconductor layer by laser irradiation, and therefore, the glass substrate can be easily increased in size. The IGZO process has extremely high similarity with the a-Si process, and the IZGO has high electron mobility, so the method can be applied to producing OLED display panels.
