Description

A kind of pixel unit drive circuit and display device
Technical field
The utility model relates to the circuit structure of liquid crystal indicator, refers to especially a kind of pixel unit drive circuit and display device.
Background technology
Organic light emitting display diode (OLED) is applied in the high-performance demonstration more and more as a kind of current mode luminescent device.Traditional passive matrix organic light emitting display (Passive Matrix OLED), along with the increase of display size, needs the driving time of shorter single pixel, thereby needs to increase transient current, increases power consumption.The simultaneously application of large electric current can cause the ITO(tin indium oxide) on line pressure drop excessive, and make the OLED operating voltage too high, and then reduce its efficiency.And active matrix organic light-emitting shows that (Active Matrix OLED), by the switching tube input OLED electric current of lining by line scan, can address these problems well.
In the AMOLED back plate design, mainly needing the problem solved is the luminance nonuniformity between pixel and pixel.
At first, AMOLED adopts thin film transistor (TFT) (TFT) to build image element circuit and provides corresponding electric current for the OLED device.Low-temperature polysilicon film transistor (LTPS TFT) or the oxide thin film transistors (Oxide TFT) of adopting more.With general amorphous silicon film transistor (a-Si TFT), compare, LTPS TFT and Oxide TFT have higher mobility and more stable characteristic, are more suitable for being applied in the AMOLED demonstration.But the limitation due to crystallization process, the LTPS TFT made on the large-area glass substrate, usually on electrical parameters such as threshold voltage, mobility, there is heterogeneity, this heterogeneity can be converted into current difference and the luminance difference of OLED display device, and by the perception of human eye institute, i.e. mura phenomenon.Although the homogeneity of Oxide TFT technique is better, but similar with a-Si TFT, under long-time pressurization and high temperature, its threshold voltage there will be drift, due to the display frame difference, the threshold drift amount difference of panel each several part TFT, can cause display brightness difference, due to this species diversity with show before image-related, therefore often be rendered as ghost phenomena.
Secondly, in the large scale display application, because there is certain resistance in the backboard power lead, cause the supply voltage of close ARVDD Power supply position than the high IR of the being called Drop of supply voltage away from for electric position.IR Drop can cause the current difference of zones of different, and then produces mura when showing.
AMOLED is according to driving type can be divided into three major types: digital, current type and voltage-type.It is fast that the voltage-type driving has actuating speed, realizes simple advantage, is applicable to driving large size panel, but need to design extra TFT and capacitor element, compensate TFT heterogeneity, IR Drop and OLED heterogeneity.

I OLED = 1 2 μ n · Cox · W L · ( Vdata - Voled - Vthn ) 2
μ wherein nFor carrier mobility, C OXFor gate oxide electric capacity, W/L is the transistor breadth length ratio, V DATAFor the voltage of data line, Voled is the OLED operating voltage, for all pixel cells, shares, and Vth is transistorized threshold voltage, for enhancement mode TFT, Vth be on the occasion of, for depletion type TFT, Vth is negative value.From above formula, if the Vth difference between the different pixels unit, electric current there are differences.If the Vth of pixel drifts about in time, may cause first after-current difference, cause ghost.And, because OLED device heterogeneity causes OLED operating voltage difference, also can cause current difference.
Towards compensation Vth heterogeneity, drift and the heteropical dot structure of OLED, have a variety of, usually all adopt the mode that as shown in Figures 2 and 3 TFT is set to the diode connection to realize, but this structure is only applicable to the TFT of enhancement mode, the information of voltage of Vth can be do not contained in the voltage that depletion type TFT stores, thereby the Vth heterogeneity can't be compensated.
