Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, and the third transistor M3 may be configured as N-type transistors, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5, and the sixth transistor M6 may be configured as P-type transistors, wherein a first end of the N-type transistor may be denoted as a source, a second end may be denoted as a drain, a control end may be denoted as a gate, a first end of the P-type transistor may be denoted as a drain, a second end may be denoted as a source, and a control end may be denoted as a gate. The power supply voltage may be configured as a high level voltage VDD, and the voltage at the ground may be configured as a low level voltage GND, wherein the voltage value of the power supply voltage VDD may be set to 1v, and the voltage value of the ground voltage GND may be set to 0v.
Since the control terminals of the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, and the sixth transistor M6 are all configured to be connected to the first clock signal ck, the control terminals of the third transistor M3, the fourth transistor M4, and the fifth transistor M5 are all configured to be connected to the second clock signal ckb.
Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5 are turned on, and the third transistor M3 and the sixth transistor M6 are turned off. At this time, the voltage at the first node a is set to a low level voltage, and the corresponding first node voltage va=gnd=0 at the first node a, the voltage at the third node C is set to a high level voltage, and the corresponding third node voltage vc=vdd at the third node C, so that the first plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the first node a, i.e. the first plate voltage of the first capacitor C1 is va=0, the second plate of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the third node C, i.e. the second plate voltage of the first capacitor C1 is vc=vdd, and the voltage difference between the two plates of the first capacitor C1 is VDD; since the voltage at the second node b is set to the low-level voltage, and the corresponding second node voltage vb=gnd=0 at the second node b. Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the first control signal outputted by the first control sub-module is vb=gnd=0.
When the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the first transistor M1, the second transistor M2, the fourth transistor M4, the fifth transistor M5 are turned off, and the third transistor M3 and the sixth transistor M6 are turned on. At this time, since the first plate of the first capacitor C1 has no discharge path, the first capacitor C1 is in a floating state, and thus the corresponding first node voltage Va at the first node a remains GND unchanged. The voltage at the second node b is the same as the voltage at the third node c and both are kept in the floating state, so that the second node voltage Vb corresponding to the second node b is the same as the third node voltage Vc corresponding to the third node c, and the second node voltage Vb and the third node voltage Vc are both the voltage VDD before floating. At this time, since the first and second plates of the first capacitor C1 are in a floating state, and the first terminal voltage is the first node voltage va=gnd, the second terminal voltage is the third node voltage vc=vdd, and the voltage difference between the two plates of the first capacitor C1 is still VDD. Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the first control signal outputted by the first control sub-module is vb=vdd.

When the corresponding first node voltage Va at the first node a changes from GND to Vin, at this time, the first plate voltage of the first capacitor C1 changes from GND to Vin, and since the voltage difference between the two plates of the first capacitor C1 needs to be kept constant by VDD, the second plate voltage of the first capacitor, that is, the third node voltage Vc, rises from VDD to vdd+vin, that is, vc=vb=vdd+vin, at this time, the first control signal output by the first control submodule is vdd+vin, and voltage bootstrap of the first capacitor C1 is completed.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the second capacitor C2 may be used as a bootstrap capacitor of the second control sub-module, and the second capacitor C2 may be used to reduce the dc bias voltage of the first plate of the capacitor, so that the amplitude of the output signal may be reduced.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the sixth node g may be used as an access terminal of the second signal input sub-module, and the fifth node f may be used as an output terminal of the second control signal of the second control sub-module.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the ninth transistor M9, the tenth transistor M10, the eleventh transistor M11, and the fourteenth transistor M14 may be configured as N-type transistors, the twelfth transistor M12, and the thirteenth transistor M13 may be configured as P-type transistors, wherein a first end of the N-type transistors may be denoted as a source, a second end may be denoted as a drain, a control end may be denoted as a gate, a first end of the P-type transistors may be denoted as a drain, a second end may be denoted as a source, and a control end may be denoted as a gate. The power supply voltage may be configured as a high level voltage VDD, and the voltage at the ground may be configured as a low level voltage GND, wherein the voltage value of the power supply voltage VDD may be set to 1v, and the voltage value of the ground voltage GND may be set to 0v.
Since the control terminals of the ninth transistor M9 and the tenth transistor M10 are each configured to be connected to the first clock signal ck, the control terminals of the eleventh transistor M11, the twelfth transistor M12, the thirteenth transistor M13 and the fourteenth transistor M14 are each configured to be connected to the second clock signal ckb.
Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the ninth transistor M9, the tenth transistor M10, the twelfth transistor M12, the thirteenth transistor M13 are turned on, and the eleventh transistor M11, the fourteenth transistor M14 are turned off. At this time, the voltage at the fourth node e is set to a low level voltage, and the corresponding fourth node voltage ve=gnd=0 at the fourth node e, the voltage at the fifth node f is set to a high level voltage, and the corresponding fifth node voltage vf=vdd at the fifth node f, the voltage at the sixth node g is set to a high level voltage, and the corresponding sixth node voltage vg=vdd at the sixth node g. Therefore, the first plate of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the fourth node e, i.e. the voltage of the first plate of the second capacitor C2 is ve=0, and the second plate of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the sixth node g, i.e. the voltage of the second plate of the second capacitor C2 is vg=vdd, at which time the voltage difference between the two plates of the second capacitor C2 is VDD; since the voltage at the fifth node f is set to the high level voltage, and the corresponding fifth node voltage vf=vdd at the fifth node f. Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the second control signal of the second control sub-module is output as a high level voltage signal vf=vdd.
When the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the ninth transistor M9, the tenth transistor M10, the twelfth transistor M12, the thirteenth transistor M13 are turned off, and the eleventh transistor M11, the fourteenth transistor M14 are turned on. At this time, since the first plate of the second capacitor C2 has no discharge path, the second capacitor C2 is in a floating state, and thus the fourth node voltage Ve corresponding to the fourth node e and the fifth node voltage Vf corresponding to the fifth node f are the same, and ve=vf=gnd=0, and the sixth node voltage vg=vdd corresponding to the sixth node g. At this time, the voltage of the first plate of the second capacitor C2 is the voltage ve=gnd=0 before the suspension of the fourth node voltage Ve, the voltage of the second plate of the second capacitor C2 is the sixth node voltage vg=vdd, and the voltage difference between the two plates of the second capacitor C2 is still VDD, so when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the second control signal of the second control submodule is output as the low-level voltage signal vf=gnd.

Specifically, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the corresponding second node voltage vb=gnd at the second node b. Therefore, the fifteenth transistor M15 is in an off state.
When the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the corresponding second node voltage vb=vdd at the second node b, and therefore, the fifteenth transistor M15 is in a conductive state, the input signal Vin may be input to the sixth node g through the fifteenth transistor M15, and at this time, the corresponding sixth node voltage vg=vin at the sixth node g, and therefore, the second signal input sub-module may be capable of switching the input signal Vin into the second control sub-module.
When the corresponding sixth node voltage Vg at the sixth node g changes from VDD to Vin, the second plate voltage of the second capacitor C2 changes from VDD to Vin, and since the voltage difference between the plates of the second capacitor C2 needs to be kept constant by VDD, the first plate voltage of the second capacitor, i.e., the fourth node voltage Ve, is adjusted down from GND to Vin-VDD, i.e., ve=vf=vin-VDD. Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the second control signal outputted by the second control submodule is vf=vin-VDD, so that the voltage down-regulation of the second capacitor C2 is completed.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, as can be seen from fig. 1, when the first switching tube 102 is configured as an N-type transistor and the second switching tube 103 is configured as a P-type transistor, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the first control signal outputted by the first control sub-module 101 is vb=gnd=0, the second control signal outputted by the second control sub-module is a high-level voltage signal vf=vdd, and at this time, the first switching tube 102 and the second switching tube 103 are both in an off state, and the output voltage is kept unchanged, i.e. is kept.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the first control signal output by the first control submodule is vb=vdd+vin, the second control signal output by the second control submodule is vf=vin-VDD, at this time, the first switching tube 102 and the second switching tube 103 are both in an on state, and the voltage Vb after the bootstrap boost is greater and is changed from VDD to vin+vdd, so that the on resistance of the first switching tube 102 is reduced, and at the same time, the voltage Vf after the bootstrap boost is lower and is changed from GND to Vin-VDD, so that the on resistance of the second switching tube 103 is reduced.

Specifically, when the first clock signal ck is at a high level and the second clock signal ckb is at a low level, the corresponding second node voltage vb=gnd at the second node b and the corresponding fifth node voltage vf=vdd at the fifth node f. Thus, the seventeenth transistor M17 and the eighteenth transistor M18 are both in an off state.
When the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the corresponding second node voltage vb=vin+vdd at the second node b and the corresponding fifth node voltage vf=vin-VDD at the fifth node f are both in an on state, and therefore, the seventeenth transistor M17 and the eighteenth transistor M18 are both in an on state. At this time, the input signal Vin may be input into the substrate of the first switching transistor through the seventeenth transistor M17 and the eighteenth transistor M18.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the voltage of the control electrode of the first switch tube is vin+vdd, and the voltages of the first end and the second end of the first switch tube are approximately equal and are both input signals Vin.

Accordingly, the second control signal of the second control sub-module is output as the high-level voltage signal vf=vdd.
Further, since the second node voltage vb=gnd=0, the seventh transistor M7 of the first control module 101, the fifteenth transistor M15 of the second control module 102, the seventeenth transistor M17 in the first substrate input module 801, the nineteenth transistor M19 in the second substrate input module 802 are turned off, and the first switching transistor 102 is turned off; since the fifth node voltage vf=vdd, the eighth transistor M8 of the first control module 101, the sixteenth transistor M16 of the second control module 102, the eighteenth transistor M18 in the first substrate input module 801, the twentieth transistor M20 in the second substrate input module 802 are turned off, and the second switching transistor 103 is turned off.

At this time, since the first plate of the first capacitor C1 has no discharge path, the first capacitor C1 is in a floating state, and thus the corresponding first node voltage Va at the first node a remains GND unchanged. The voltage at the second node b is the same as the voltage at the third node c and both are kept in the floating state, so that the second node voltage Vb corresponding to the second node b is the same as the third node voltage Vc corresponding to the third node c, and the second node voltage Vb and the third node voltage Vc are both the voltage VDD before floating. At this time, the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate of the first capacitor C1 are in a floating state, the first electrode plate voltage is the first node voltage va=gnd, the second electrode plate voltage is the third node voltage vc=vdd, and the voltage difference between the two electrode plates of the first capacitor C1 is still VDD.

At this time, since the first plate of the second capacitor C2 has no discharge path, the second capacitor C2 is in a floating state, and thus the fourth node voltage Ve corresponding to the fourth node e and the fifth node voltage Vf corresponding to the fifth node f are the same, and ve=vf=gnd=0, and the sixth node voltage vg=vdd corresponding to the sixth node g. At this time, the voltage of the first plate of the second capacitor C2 is the voltage ve=gnd=0 before the suspension of the fourth node voltage Ve, the voltage of the second plate of the second capacitor C2 is the sixth node voltage vg=vdd, and the voltage difference between the two plates of the second capacitor C2 is still VDD, so when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the second control signal of the second control submodule is output as the low-level voltage signal vf=gnd.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the corresponding second node voltage vb=vdd at the second node b, and thus the fifteenth transistor M15 is in an on state, the input signal Vin may be input to the sixth node g through the fifteenth transistor M15, and at this time, the corresponding sixth node voltage vg=vin at the sixth node g, and thus the second signal input sub-module may be able to switch the input signal Vin into the second control sub-module.
According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the corresponding sixth node voltage Vg at the sixth node g changes from VDD to Vin, at this time, the second plate voltage of the second capacitor C2 changes from VDD to Vin, and since the second capacitor C2 plate voltage difference needs to be kept constant by VDD, the first plate voltage of the second capacitor, i.e., the fourth node voltage Ve, is adjusted down from GND to Vin-VDD, i.e., ve=vf=vin-VDD. Therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the second control signal outputted by the second control submodule is vf=vin-VDD, so that the voltage down-regulation of the second capacitor C2 is completed.
Further, since the second node voltage vb=vdd+vin, the seventh transistor M7 of the first control module 101, the fifteenth transistor M15 of the second control module 102, the seventeenth transistor M17 in the first substrate input module 801, the nineteenth transistor M19 in the second substrate input module 802 are turned on, and the first switching transistor 102 is turned on; since the fifth node voltage vf=vin-VDD, the eighth transistor M8 of the first control module 101, the sixteenth transistor M16 of the second control module 102, the eighteenth transistor M18 of the first substrate input module 801, and the twentieth transistor M20 of the second substrate input module 802 are turned on, and the second switching transistor 103 is turned on, the on-resistances of the switches Vin to Vout transfer, vin to va transfer, and Vin to vg transfer are further reduced, and therefore, when the first clock signal ck is at a low level and the second clock signal ckb is at a high level, the gate voltage bootstrap sampling hold circuit is in a sampling state.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the voltage of the control electrode of the first switch tube is vin+vdd, and the voltages of the first end and the second end of the first switch tube are approximately equal and are both input signals Vin. The voltage difference between its gate and the first terminal is VDD and remains stable throughout the sampling period. Since the input signal Vin is injected into the substrate of the first switching transistor through the seventeenth transistor M17 and the eighteenth transistor M18, the voltage difference between the substrate and the first terminal of the first switching transistor is 0, so that the threshold voltage Vth1 of the first switching transistor is stabilized.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the voltage of the control electrode of the second switching tube is Vin-VDD, and the voltages of the first end and the second end of the second switching tube are approximately equal and are both input signals Vin. The voltage difference between the gate and the second terminal thereof is VDD, and since the input signal Vin is injected into the substrate of the second switching tube through the nineteenth and twentieth transistors M19 and M20, the voltage difference between the substrate and the second terminal of the second switching tube is 0 and remains stable throughout the sampling period, which stabilizes the threshold voltage Vth2 of the second switching tube.
