Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
Example one
In order to solve the problem in the related art that the current passing through the display unit 3 fluctuates and causes adverse effects on the display unit 3, please refer to fig. 1, where fig. 1 is a pixel driving circuit 5 provided in an embodiment of the present application, where the pixel driving circuit 5 includes but is not limited to: the display device comprises a light-emitting circuit 1 and a control circuit 2, wherein the light-emitting circuit 1 comprises at least two sub light-emitting circuits 10, and the light-emitting circuit 1 is connected with the display unit 3 and used for supplying power to the display unit 3 through any one of the sub light-emitting circuits 10; the control circuit 2 is respectively connected with the light-emitting circuit 1 and the display unit 3; the control circuit 2 is configured to detect a current passing through the display unit 3 when the light emitting circuit 1 supplies power to the display unit 3 through any one of the sub light emitting circuits 10; when the current through the display unit 3 exceeds a threshold value, the control circuit 2 switches the sub light emitting circuit 10 that supplies power to the display unit 3.
It should be understood that the present embodiment does not limit the number of the sub light emitting circuits 10 included in the light emitting circuit 1, and the number of the sub light emitting circuits 10 may be flexibly set by the relevant person, and preferably, the number of the sub light emitting circuits 10 is 2, that is, two sub light emitting circuits 10 are included in the light emitting circuit 1; meanwhile, the light emitting circuit 1 is connected to the anode of the display unit 3, that is, each of the sub light emitting circuits 10 is connected to the anode of the display unit 3, respectively; it will be appreciated that at the same time, the display unit 3 is powered by only one sub-lighting circuit 10, for example, A, B are included in the lighting circuit 1, and the display unit 3 is driven to emit light by a or B when the display unit 3 is required to emit light.
In some examples of the present embodiment, the control circuit 2 is connected to an anode of the display unit 3 to detect a current passing through the display unit 3; in some examples, the control circuit 2 may be connected to a cathode of the display unit 3 to detect a current through the display unit 3.
In some examples of the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, each of the sub light emitting circuits 10 is provided with a first thin film transistor 11, and a control terminal of the first thin film transistor 11 is connected to the control circuit 2, and is configured to turn on or off the sub light emitting circuit 10 according to a control signal transmitted by the control circuit 2, so as to switch the sub light emitting circuit 10 that supplies power to the display unit 3; it should be understood that a first terminal of the first thin film transistor 11 is connected to the power voltage Vdd, a second terminal of the second thin film transistor 12 is connected to the anode of the display unit 3, and the first thin film transistor 11 is turned on from the first terminal to the second terminal, so that when the first thin film transistor 11 is turned on, current is transmitted to the anode of the display unit 3.
It is understood that if the first thin film transistor 11 of the same sub-light emitting circuit 10 continues to operate for a long time, the characteristics of the first thin film transistor 11 change, resulting in an increase in the current passing through the display unit 3; for example, when the display unit 3 is driven by continuously supplying power to the display unit 3 through a certain sub-light emitting circuit 10 for a long time, the first thin film transistor 11 of a certain sub-light emitting circuit 10 continuously operates for a long time, which causes the temperature of the first thin film transistor 11 to rise, and further causes the threshold voltage of the first thin film transistor 11 to become small, the leakage current to become large, and further causes the current transmitted by the sub-light emitting circuit 10 to increase, the current passing through the display unit 3 is in an unstable state, so that the display of the display unit 3 is unstable, and the display effect is affected, and meanwhile, the service life of the display unit 3 is affected by the increase of the current passing through the display unit 3; at this time, the control circuit 2 detects the current passing through the display unit 3, when the current passing through the display unit 3 exceeds a threshold, the control circuit 2 switches the sub-light emitting circuits 10 that supply power to the display unit 3, and since only one sub-light emitting circuit 10 supplies power to the display unit 3 at the same time, the switched sub-light emitting circuit 10 is necessarily in a normal state (the threshold voltage of the first thin film transistor 11 of the switched sub-light emitting circuit 10 is not changed), so that when the display unit 3 is supplied with power through the switched sub-light emitting circuit 10, the current passing through the display unit 3 is constant, the stability of the current passing through the display unit 3 is ensured, the display of the display unit 3 is stable, and the display effect is improved.
As will be understood from the above example, the present embodiment does not limit the type of the first thin film transistor 11, when the first thin film transistor 11 is an N-type thin film transistor, the sub-light emitting circuit 10 is turned on when the control circuit 2 transmits a high-level control signal, and the first thin film transistor 11 is turned off when the control circuit 2 stops transmitting the control signal or transmits a low-level control signal; when the first thin film transistor 11 is a P-type thin film transistor, the sub-light emitting circuit 10 is turned on when the control circuit 2 transmits a low-level control signal, and the first thin film transistor 11 is turned off when the control circuit 2 stops transmitting the control signal or transmits a high-level control signal.

It should be understood that the comparator 22 is configured to detect a voltage across the ground resistor 21 connected to one end of the display unit 3, compare the voltage with a reference voltage Vref, and when the voltage across the ground resistor 21 exceeds the reference voltage Vref, it indicates that the current through the display unit 3 exceeds a threshold, at this time, the comparator 22 outputs a first comparison signal to control the trigger 23 to trigger switching of the sub-light-emitting circuit 10 that supplies power to the display unit 3; when the voltage of the ground resistor 21 is not higher than the reference voltage Vref, it indicates that the current passing through the display unit 3 does not exceed the threshold, at this time, the comparator 22 outputs the second comparison signal, and the trigger 23 does not trigger the sub-light emitting circuit 10 for switching the power supply to the display unit 3; it is understood that the first comparison signal is a high level signal and the second comparison signal is a low level signal.
As described above, specifically, the resistance R of the ground resistor 21 does not change, and according to the formula, the voltage U is the current I × the resistor R, when the voltage of the end of the ground resistor 21 connected to the display unit 3 increases, it indicates that I is in an increased state, that is, the current passing through the light-emitting unit is in an increased state; comparing the voltage of the ground resistor 21 with the reference voltage Vref, when the voltage of the ground resistor 21 exceeds the reference voltage Vref, it indicates that the current passing through the display unit 3 exceeds the threshold, and at this time, the control circuit 2 switches the sub light emitting circuit 10 that supplies power to the display unit 3;

When any sub-light emitting circuit 10 drives the display unit 3 for a long time, the sub-light emitting circuit 10 has a problem that the temperature of the first transistor is increased, so that the threshold voltage of the first transistor is reduced, the leakage current is increased, and finally the current passing through the display unit 3 is increased; when the control circuit 2 detects the increase of the current, the detected voltage is compared with the reference voltage Vref, and the voltage detected by the control circuit 2 increases due to the detection of the increase of the current to the ground resistor 21. When the voltage detected by the comparator 22 exceeds the reference voltage Vref, the comparator 22 outputs a high level signal as a first comparison signal, the first comparison signal is input to the T flip-flop 23, the T flip-flop 23T is connected to the working voltage Vd, and the working voltage Vd is a high level voltage, so that the output of the T flip-flop 23 is always a high level signal, and when the clock signal end receives a high level pulse (first comparison signal), the T flip-flop 23 triggers the output end 230 of the switching output end 230 to output a signal, so as to switch the sub-lighting circuit 10 that drives the display unit 3. The working principle of the T flip-flop 23 is as follows: when T is 1, the output changes state once every time it receives a high level.
The two sub-lighting circuits 10 will change state alternately as long as the control point bank receives a large current. The time for switching the state between the two sub-driving point banks is extremely short due to the generation by one flip-flop 23. The driving is exchanged in this way, thereby ensuring that the display unit 3 is always in a normal working state. Specifically, at a first time, the T flip-flop 23 outputs the working voltage Vd, accessed by the signal input terminal T, as a control signal through the first output terminal Q, so as to turn on the sub-light emitting circuit 10 connected to the first output terminal Q to supply power to the display unit 3; at the second moment, when the T flip-flop 23 receives the first comparison signal transmitted by the comparator 22, the T flip-flop 23 triggers to switch to the second output end qfin, and the working voltage Vd accessed by the signal input end T is output as a control signal through the second output end qfin, so as to turn on the sub-light emitting circuit 10 disconnected by the second output end Q to supply power to the display unit 3, thereby realizing switching of the sub-light emitting circuit 10 supplying power to the display unit 3.
