Description

發光二極體顯示面板LED display panel

本發明係與顯示器有關,尤其是關於一種發光二極體(Light-Emitting Diode, LED)顯示面板。The present invention is related to displays, and particularly to a light-emitting diode (LED) display panel.

請參照圖1及圖2,圖1係繪示習知的發光二極體顯示面板的畫素設計示意圖;圖2則係繪示圖1中之第二電晶體的控制訊號的時序圖。Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the pixel design of a conventional light emitting diode display panel; FIG. 2 is a timing diagram of the control signal of the second transistor in FIG.

如圖1所示,目前常見的發光二極體顯示面板的畫素1係採用「2T1C」架構,亦即每一畫素包括第一電晶體T1、第二電晶體T2及儲存電容CS。其中,第一電晶體T1設置於工作電壓VDD與發光二極體LED之間,且第一電晶體T1受控於閘極電壓VG;第二電晶體T2設置於第一電晶體T1的閘極與資料訊號VDAT之間,且第二電晶體T2受控於驅動訊號S(N);儲存電容CS之一端耦接至第二電晶體T2與第一電晶體T1的閘極之間且儲存電容CS之另一端耦接至第一電晶體T1與發光二極體LED之間。As shown in FIG. 1, the pixel 1 of the current common light-emitting diode display panel adopts the "2T1C" architecture, that is, each pixel includes a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a storage capacitor CS. Wherein, the first transistor T1 is arranged between the working voltage VDD and the light emitting diode LED, and the first transistor T1 is controlled by the gate voltage VG; the second transistor T2 is arranged on the gate of the first transistor T1 Between the second transistor T2 and the data signal VDAT, and the second transistor T2 is controlled by the drive signal S(N); one end of the storage capacitor CS is coupled between the second transistor T2 and the gate of the first transistor T1 and the storage capacitor The other end of CS is coupled between the first transistor T1 and the light-emitting diode LED.

一般而言,習知的「2T1C」架構較適用於採用電壓保持模式(Holding-type)成像的畫素。然而,由於發光二極體LED的驅動電流(約為mA等級)遠大於有機發光二極體(Organic Light-Emitting Diode, OLED)的驅動電流(約為uA等級),導致採用電壓保持模式的發光二極體顯示面板的總電流過高而增加功耗。Generally speaking, the conventional "2T1C" architecture is more suitable for pixels that adopt the voltage holding mode (Holding-type) imaging. However, since the driving current of the light-emitting diode LED (approximately mA level) is much greater than the driving current of the organic light-emitting diode (Organic Light-Emitting Diode, OLED) (approximately uA level), the voltage holding mode is adopted for light emission The total current of the diode display panel is too high and power consumption is increased.

此外,由於每一畫素中設置於工作電壓VDD與發光二極體LED之間的第一電晶體T1所需的寬度較大,隨著高解析度顯示面板之發展趨勢,當畫素密度(PPI)提高時,將會導致畫素的電路佈局難度受限於各元件及走線而大幅增加,亟待克服。In addition, since the width of the first transistor T1 provided between the working voltage VDD and the light-emitting diode LED in each pixel is relatively large, with the development trend of high-resolution display panels, when the pixel density ( When the PPI is increased, the circuit layout difficulty of the pixel will be greatly increased due to the limitation of various components and wiring, which needs to be overcome urgently.

因此,本發明提出一種發光二極體顯示面板,以解決先前技術所遭遇的上述問題。Therefore, the present invention proposes a light emitting diode display panel to solve the above-mentioned problems encountered in the prior art.

When the second transistor is turned on under the control of the switching signal, the second transistor outputs the data signal to the first data line.

相較於先前技術,本發明之發光二極體顯示面板的畫素設計係採用「1T1C」架構或「1T」架構,而非傳統的「2T1C」架構,亦即每一畫素包括第一電晶體及儲存電容或僅包括第一電晶體,且於有效顯示區域之外共用第二電晶體,因此其電路佈局較為容易,即使在畫素密度提高的情況下,其電路佈局難度不易受限於各元件及走線而大幅增加,故可適用於高解析度之面板設計。Compared with the prior art, the pixel design of the LED display panel of the present invention adopts the "1T1C" architecture or the "1T" architecture, instead of the traditional "2T1C" architecture, that is, each pixel includes the first electrical The crystal and storage capacitor may only include the first transistor, and share the second transistor outside the effective display area. Therefore, the circuit layout is easier.

此外,由於本發明之發光二極體顯示面板係採用脈衝驅動模式(Impulse driving mode)對所有畫素分區驅動,其所需電流較傳統的電壓保持模式(Holding-type)來得低,故可有效減少發光二極體顯示面板的總功耗,並可在驅動電路與第二電晶體之間設置多工器來減少所需驅動電路之數量。In addition, since the light-emitting diode display panel of the present invention adopts the impulse driving mode (Impulse driving mode) to drive all the pixel partitions, the required current is lower than that of the traditional holding-type mode (Holding-type), so it is effective The total power consumption of the light-emitting diode display panel is reduced, and a multiplexer can be arranged between the driving circuit and the second transistor to reduce the number of required driving circuits.

需說明的是,圖7的發光二極體顯示面板7與圖3的發光二極體顯示面板3不同之處在於:圖7的發光二極體顯示面板7還在有效顯示區域AA週邊設計補償迴路,例如圖7的發光二極體顯示面板7還包括設置於有效顯示區域AA之外的複數個第三電晶體T3。It should be noted that the LED display panel 7 of FIG. 7 is different from the LED display panel 3 of FIG. 3 in that: the LED display panel 7 of FIG. 7 is also designed to compensate around the effective display area AA The circuit, for example, the light emitting diode display panel 7 of FIG. 7 further includes a plurality of third transistors T3 arranged outside the effective display area AA.

如圖7所示,發光二極體顯示面板7所包括的該複數個第三電晶體T3中之一第三電晶體T3係耦接於第一資料線DL(i-1)與驅動電路IC之間且此第三電晶體T3之閘極受控於參考訊號VREF;該複數個第三電晶體T3中之另一第三電晶體T3係耦接於第二資料線DL(i)與驅動電路IC之間且此第三電晶體T3之閘極亦受控於參考訊號VREF。As shown in FIG. 7, one of the plurality of third transistors T3 included in the light emitting diode display panel 7 is coupled to the first data line DL(i-1) and the driving circuit IC.

亦請同時參照圖7及圖8。在切換訊號SW(i-1)處於高位準VGH而對第一資料線DL(i-1)充電的期間,當參考訊號VREF由低位準VGL變為高位準VGH時,耦接第一資料線DL(i-1)的第三電晶體T3受控於參考訊號VREF而導通,藉以檢測第一資料線DL(i-1)之電流並輸出回饋訊號至驅動電路IC,以作為驅動電路IC進行補償之參考。Please also refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 at the same time.

相較於先前技術,本發明之發光二極體顯示面板的畫素設計係採用「1T1C」架構或「1T」架構,而非傳統的「2T1C」架構,亦即每一畫素包括第一電晶體及儲存電容或僅包括第一電晶體,且於有效顯示區域之外共用第二電晶體,因此其電路佈局較為容易,即使在畫素密度提高的情況下,其電路佈局難度不易受限於各元件及走線而大幅增加,故可適用於高解析度之面板設計。Compared with the prior art, the pixel design of the LED display panel of the present invention adopts the "1T1C" architecture or the "1T" architecture, instead of the traditional "2T1C" architecture, that is, each pixel includes the first electrical The crystal and storage capacitor may only include the first transistor, and share the second transistor outside the effective display area. Therefore, the circuit layout is easier. Even when the pixel density is increased, the circuit layout difficulty is not easily limited by The number of components and traces has been greatly increased, so it is suitable for high-resolution panel design.

此外,由於本發明之發光二極體顯示面板係採用脈衝驅動模式(Impulse driving mode)對所有畫素分區驅動,其所需電流較傳統的電壓保持模式(Holding-type)來得低,故可有效減少發光二極體顯示面板的總功耗,並可在驅動電路與第二電晶體之間設置多工器來減少所需驅動電路之數量。In addition, since the light-emitting diode display panel of the present invention adopts the impulse driving mode (Impulse driving mode) to drive all the pixel partitions, the required current is lower than that of the traditional holding-type mode (Holding-type), so it is effective The total power consumption of the light-emitting diode display panel is reduced, and a multiplexer can be arranged between the driving circuit and the second transistor to reduce the number of required driving circuits.
