Specifically, the data writing module 1 writes the data voltage Vdata transmitted on the data line into the gate of the driving transistor T1 of the pixel circuit 10 in the data writing stage T2. The driving process of the display panel includes a write frame and a sustain frame. The length of time of the hold frame between two adjacent write frames determines the frequency at which the data voltage Vdata of the write frame charges the pixel circuit 10. The frequency adjustment module 2 is responsive to the second scan signal S4, and the second scan signal S4 can control the frequency adjustment module 2 to be turned on and off.
May be disposed in the writing frame, and when the frequency adjustment module 2 is turned on according to the second scan signal S4, the data writing module 1 may write the data voltage Vdata to the gate of the driving transistor T1 of the pixel circuit 10 to charge the gate of the driving transistor T1 of the pixel circuit 10.

Alternatively, the driving frequencies of the pixel circuits 10 located in the first, second, and third display areas A1, A2, and A3 may be set to gradually vary, for example, gradually increase or gradually decrease. By way of example, the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10 located in the first display area A1 may be set to 120Hz, the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10 in the second display area A2 may be set to 60Hz, and the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10 in the third display area A3 may be set to 30Hz. The setting can reasonably set the driving frequency of different display areas of the display panel 100 according to the requirement of the display screen of the display panel 100, the display requirement of the display panel 100 is better met, the electric quantity of a display device can be better saved, the standby time of the display device is improved, the power consumption of the display panel 100 is reduced, and the use experience of a user is improved.

Fig. 14 is a schematic diagram of a driving timing of a pixel circuit of a display panel according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 12 to 14, the frequency adjustment module 2 is connected between the second pole of the driving transistor T1 and the second node N2.
Specifically, the difference from the above embodiment is that the frequency adjustment module 2 is connected between the second pole of the driving transistor T1 and the second node N2, and the frequency adjustment module 2 is configured to control the period of writing the frame and maintaining the frame according to the second scan signal S4 to adjust the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10. The specific driving process is as follows:
fig. 13 exemplarily shows a timing chart at a data writing frame. In the data writing stage T2 of the writing frame, the first scan signal S2 is a low level signal, the data writing module 1 is turned on, the second scan signal S4 is a low level signal, and the frequency adjusting module 2 is turned on, so that the data voltage Vdata transmitted on the data line is written into the gate of the driving transistor T1 of the pixel circuit 10. Fig. 14 exemplarily shows a timing chart of a hold frame. In the second time period T2 'of the hold frame, the second scan signal S4 is a high level signal, so that the frequency adjustment module 2 is turned off, and thus the data writing module 1 cannot write the data voltage Vdata to the gate of the driving transistor T1 of the pixel circuit 10 even if the first scan signal S2 arrives, so that the time length of the second time period T2' of the hold frame of the pixel circuit 10 can be set as needed. The second scan signal S4 controls the period of turning on or off the frequency adjustment module 2, thereby controlling the period of the writing frame and the holding frame of the pixel circuit 10, and realizing adjustment of the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10.
In the light emitting stage t4 of the writing frame, the first scan signal S2 is a high level signal, the data writing module 1 is turned off, the second scan signal S4 is a low level signal, the frequency adjusting module 2 is turned on, the light emitting control signal EM is a low level signal, and the first light emitting control module 7 and the second light emitting control module 8 are both turned on, so that the light emitting module D1 emits light. In the fourth period t4' of the hold frame, the second scan signal S4 is a low level signal, so that the frequency adjustment module 2 is turned on, the light emission control signal EM is a low level signal, and both the first light emission control module 7 and the second light emission control module 8 are turned on, so that the light emission module D1 emits light.
In summary, the arrangement can ensure that the display panel 100 displays images normally, and can realize that different areas of the display panel 100 have different refresh frequencies, so that the display panel 100 can meet application scenes with different refresh frequency requirements, thereby reducing power consumption of the display panel 100 and further improving display effect of the display panel.
Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, with reference to fig. 8 to 10, the second scan signal S4 is an on signal in the data writing stage t2 of the writing frame, and is an off signal in the data writing stage of the holding frame; the frequency adjustment module 2 is configured to be turned on during a data writing phase t2 of a writing frame and turned off during a data writing phase of a holding frame in response to the second scan signal S4.
Specifically, the setting may adjust the time and period of the data writing stage of the hold frame and the data writing stage t2 of the writing frame of the display panel 100 by setting the duty ratio of the on signal and the off signal of the second scan signal S4, and further adjust the frequency of writing the data voltage Vdata by the pixel circuit 10, so as to adjust the driving frequency of the pixel circuit 10, so that the display panel 100 may select a suitable driving frequency according to the display requirement, and further reduce the power consumption of the display panel 100.
It should be noted that fig. 10 exemplarily illustrates a case where the hold frame includes a first time period t1', a second time period t2', a third time period t3', and a fourth time period t 4'. Since the holding frame is not written with data and is not initialized, the second time period t2 'of the holding frame corresponds to the data writing period of the holding frame described above, and the fourth time period t4' of the holding frame corresponds to the light emitting period of the holding frame described above. The above-described data writing stage of the holding frame is only for facilitating understanding of the correspondence between the holding frame and the writing frame, and is not limited in any way.

Specifically, in the first initialization stage T1, the first initialization module 4 is turned on according to the third scan signal S1, writes an initialization voltage into the gate of the driving transistor T1, and initializes the gate of the driving transistor T1. The gate voltages of the driving transistors T1 of the pixel circuits 10 are made as uniform as possible between the writing data voltages Vdata by the writing initialization voltage, so that the writing data voltages Vdata are more accurate, and the display uniformity of the display panel 100 can be improved. In the second initialization stage t3, the second initialization module 5 is turned on according to the fourth scan signal S3, and after the data writing stage t2, the second initialization module 5 initializes the anode of the light emitting module D1, so that the anode potential of the light emitting module D1 of each pixel circuit 10 is as consistent as possible, the display screen of each pixel circuit 10 is more accurate in the light emitting stage t4, the defects such as the residual image of the display panel 100 are reduced, and the display effect of the display panel 100 is further improved.
Referring to fig. 10, in the data writing stage of the sustain frame, since the second scan signal S4 is set to a high level signal, the frequency adjustment module 2 is turned off, so that neither the first time period t1' nor the second time period t2' of the pixel circuit sustain frame can write a voltage signal to the gate of the driving transistor, and in the third time period t3' of the sustain frame, an initialization voltage can be written to the anode of the light emitting module D1 through the second initialization module 5.
