以前述圖2(B)的光學指紋畫素單元21進行指紋感測的運作如下:首先驅動重置線RST以開啟重置電晶體T1,將電容C的端點電壓Vp重置到預設值,亦即,第三電壓SVSS,藉此第三電壓SVSS以確保驅動電晶體T2 關閉;接著,關閉重置電晶體T1,使光學感應元件PS持續曝光一段時間,而隨著照光強度與曝光時間的不同,電容C的放電量不同,因此電容C的端點電壓Vp也不同;當達到預設的曝光時間時,驅動選擇線SEL以將選擇線SEL的電壓由低準位切到高準位(電位差∆V),而因為耦合效應,電容C的端點電壓Vp大致上也會提高∆V,因此可以打開驅動電晶體T2,輸出電流到讀出線RO。輸出電流大小與電容C的端點電壓Vp有關,亦即與照光強度及曝光時間有關。而連接讀出線RO的負載電晶體T4是相當於一主動負載(active load)。因此,讀出線RO的讀出端RO’的電壓與重置電晶體T1及主動負載的阻值有關,藉由積體電路讀出此讀出端RO’的電壓,可判斷照光強度。The operation of fingerprint sensing performed by the optical fingerprint pixel unit 21 of the aforementioned FIG. 2(B) is as follows: firstly, the reset line RST is driven to turn on the reset transistor T1, and the terminal voltage Vp of the capacitor C is reset to a preset value , that is, the third voltage SVSS, whereby the third voltage SVSS ensures that the driving transistor T2 is turned off; then, the reset transistor T1 is turned off, so that the optical sensing element PS is continuously exposed for a period of time, and with the illumination intensity and exposure time The discharge amount of the capacitor C is different, so the terminal voltage Vp of the capacitor C is also different; when the preset exposure time is reached, the selection line SEL is driven to switch the voltage of the selection line SEL from a low level to a high level. (potential difference ΔV), and due to the coupling effect, the terminal voltage Vp of the capacitor C will also increase by ΔV approximately, so the drive transistor T2 can be turned on and output current to the readout line RO. The output current is related to the terminal voltage Vp of the capacitor C, that is, related to the illumination intensity and exposure time. The load transistor T4 connected to the readout line RO is equivalent to an active load. Therefore, the voltage of the readout terminal RO' of the readout line RO is related to the resistance of the reset transistor T1 and the active load. By reading the voltage of the readout terminal RO' through the integrated circuit, the illumination intensity can be determined.

為了避免如圖2(A)及2(B)需額外設置重置線RST及選擇線SEL所造成顯示面板的開口率大幅降低之問題,於本發明的指紋顯示裝置中,藉由導入重置開關電晶體SW-RST與選擇開關電晶體SW-SEL來做顯示掃描線、重置線、與選擇線功能之間的切換,可將顯示掃描線、重置線、與選擇線整合成一條,且不會因開關電晶體的走線而降低開口率,因此可有效改善面板開口率。In order to avoid the problem that the aperture ratio of the display panel is greatly reduced due to additionally setting the reset line RST and the selection line SEL as shown in FIGS. The switching transistor SW-RST and the selection switching transistor SW-SEL are used to switch between the functions of the display scan line, the reset line, and the select line, which can integrate the display scan line, the reset line, and the select line into one, And the aperture ratio will not be reduced due to the wiring of the switching transistor, so the aperture ratio of the panel can be effectively improved.

圖11(B)示意地顯示出採用二電晶體(2T)指紋畫素電路的指紋顯示裝置的該至少一畫素列37中的第i畫素列,其中,畫素列37具有顯示畫素單元41與如圖2(E)所示的指紋畫素單元23-2,圖中顯示一畫素列37中的一顯示畫素單元41對應一指紋畫素單元23-2,但此僅為方便說明而非限定。該至少一畫素列37中的第i畫素列的顯示畫素單元41連接到顯示掃描線G-disp(i),指紋畫素單元23-2連接到指紋複用線FP-comb(i)、指紋複用線FP-comb(i-1)、及重置開關控制走線G-RST。據此,複數畫素列37是以對應的複數條顯示掃描線G-disp及複數條指紋複用線FP-comb(i)所驅動及由重置開關控制走線G-RST所控制以進行顯示及指紋感測。11(B) schematically shows the i-th pixel row in the at least one pixel row 37 of a fingerprint display device using a two-transistor (2T) fingerprint pixel circuit, wherein the pixel row 37 has display pixels The unit 41 is the same as the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 as shown in FIG. 2(E) . The figure shows that a display pixel unit 41 in a pixel row 37 corresponds to a fingerprint pixel unit 23-2, but this is only For convenience and not limitation. The display pixel unit 41 of the i-th pixel column in the at least one pixel column 37 is connected to the display scan line G-disp(i), and the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 is connected to the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i ), the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i-1), and the reset switch control line G-RST. Accordingly, the plurality of pixel columns 37 are driven by the corresponding plurality of display scan lines G-disp and the plurality of fingerprint multiplexing lines FP-comb(i) and controlled by the reset switch control line G-RST to perform Display and fingerprint sensing.

圖11(B)所示的該至少一畫素列37中的第i畫素列的指紋畫素單元23-2的電路結構已描述於圖2(E) ,當使用此指紋畫素單元23-2於指紋顯示裝置中,該至少一畫素列37中的第i畫素列的指紋畫素單元23-2的光學感應元件PS的第二端e2連接至指紋複用線FP-comb(i-1);重置電晶體T1的控制端(G)連接至顯示掃描線G-disp(i);重置開關電晶體SW-RST的控制端(G)連接至重置開關控制走線G-RST。The circuit structure of the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 of the i-th pixel row in the at least one pixel row 37 shown in FIG. 11(B) has been described in FIG. 2(E), when the fingerprint pixel unit 23 is used -2 In the fingerprint display device, the second end e2 of the optical sensing element PS of the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 of the i-th pixel row in the at least one pixel row 37 is connected to the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb ( i-1); the control terminal (G) of the reset transistor T1 is connected to the display scan line G-disp(i); the control terminal (G) of the reset switch transistor SW-RST is connected to the reset switch control line G-RST.

再請參照圖11(B),同一行(column)的複數個指紋畫素單元23-2的重置開關電晶體SW-RST的控制端(G)相連至一重置開關控制走線G-RST,同一畫素列37的複數個指紋畫素單元23-2的重置電晶體T1的控制端(G)連接到對應的指紋複用線FP-comb(i),同一畫素列37的複數個指紋畫素單元23-2的光學感應元件PS的第二端e2連接到相鄰的指紋複用線FP-comb,於圖11(B),為方便說明,相鄰的指紋複用線FP-comb是顯示為前一條指紋複用線FP-comb(i-1),但本發明不以此為限,可想而知地,相鄰的指紋複用線FP-comb亦可是後一條指紋複用線FP-comb(i+1)。以上述之電路,當進行顯示/觸控時,由於不需要指紋感測之功能,故整合積體電路39經由重置開關控制走線G-RST將重置開關電晶體SW-RST斷開,然本發明不以此為限,只要不影響顯示,亦可選擇不斷開重置開關電晶體SW-RST。而當進行指紋感測時,在對指紋畫素單元23-2的電容C重置之時間,整合積體電路39經由重置開關控制走線G-RST將重置開關電晶體SW-RST導通以致能重置電晶體T1而使指紋複用線FP-comb(i)打開重置電晶體T1來重置電容C的準位;在重置完成後,整合積體電路39經由重置開關控制走線G-RST將重置開關電晶體SW-RST斷開以禁能重置電晶體T1;於光學感應元件PS曝光以進行指紋訊號讀取時,整合積體電路39以相鄰的條指紋複用線FP-comb(i-1)驅動打開光學感應元件PS以提高光學感應元件PS的第二端e2的電壓準位,進而打開驅動電晶體T2,來讀取指紋訊號至讀出端RO’,據此,以上述之方式操作重置開關電晶體SW-RST及驅動指紋複用線FP-comb,即可達到用指紋複用線FP-comb取代重置線RST與選擇線SEL之效果,因而提高面板穿透率。Referring to FIG. 11(B) again, the control terminals (G) of the reset switch transistors SW-RST of a plurality of fingerprint pixel units 23-2 in the same row (column) are connected to a reset switch control line G- RST, the control terminals (G) of the reset transistors T1 of the plurality of fingerprint pixel units 23-2 in the same pixel row 37 are connected to the corresponding fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i), and the The second end e2 of the optical sensing element PS of the plurality of fingerprint pixel units 23-2 is connected to the adjacent fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb, in FIG. 11(B), for the convenience of description, the adjacent fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb FP-comb is displayed as the previous fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i-1), but the present invention is not limited to this. It is conceivable that the adjacent fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb can also be the latter one Fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i+1). With the above circuit, when the display/touch is performed, since the function of fingerprint sensing is not required, the integrated IC 39 disconnects the reset switch transistor SW-RST via the reset switch control line G-RST. However, the present invention is not limited to this, as long as the display is not affected, the reset switching transistor SW-RST can also be selected not to be turned on. During fingerprint sensing, when the capacitor C of the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 is reset, the integrated circuit 39 turns on the reset switch transistor SW-RST via the reset switch control line G-RST So that the reset transistor T1 can be reset and the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb(i) turns on the reset transistor T1 to reset the level of the capacitor C; after the reset is completed, the integrated circuit 39 is controlled by the reset switch The trace G-RST disconnects the reset switch transistor SW-RST to disable the reset transistor T1; when the optical sensing element PS is exposed to read the fingerprint signal, the integrated integrated circuit 39 uses the adjacent fingerprints The multiplexed line FP-comb(i-1) drives the optical sensing element PS to increase the voltage level of the second end e2 of the optical sensing element PS, and then turns on the driving transistor T2 to read the fingerprint signal to the readout terminal RO ', according to this, by operating the reset switch transistor SW-RST and driving the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb in the above-mentioned manner, the effect of replacing the reset line RST and the selection line SEL with the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb can be achieved , thus improving the panel penetration rate.

此外,於指紋畫素單元23-2整合到顯示畫素單元41時,指紋複用線FP-comb可用金屬層1(metal-1,M1)製作,且重置開關控制走線G-RST是以用其他導電層,例如金屬層0(metal-0,M0) 或金屬層3(metal-3,M3)製作,並設置為與資料線重疊,因此不會因為導入重置開關控制走線G-RST而影響開口率。In addition, when the fingerprint pixel unit 23-2 is integrated into the display pixel unit 41, the fingerprint multiplexing line FP-comb can be made of metal layer 1 (metal-1, M1), and the reset switch control line G-RST is It can be made with other conductive layers, such as metal layer 0 (metal-0, M0) or metal layer 3 (metal-3, M3), and set to overlap with the data line, so it will not control the trace G due to the introduction of the reset switch -RST affects the aperture ratio.

圖11(C)顯示重置開關控制走線G-RST在面板31的顯示區71與其外圍的電路示意圖,其中,重置開關控制走線G-RST經由第一開關SW1接到重置電壓V-RST。為了控制方便,可將各個第一開關SW1接到同一重置開關控制訊號V-SW-RST,其中,重置開關控制訊號V-SW-RST、重置電壓V-RST是由圖10中的整合積體電路39所提供。11(C) shows a schematic circuit diagram of the reset switch control line G-RST in the display area 71 of the panel 31 and its periphery, wherein the reset switch control line G-RST is connected to the reset voltage V via the first switch SW1 -RST. For the convenience of control, each first switch SW1 can be connected to the same reset switch control signal V-SW-RST, wherein the reset switch control signal V-SW-RST and the reset voltage V-RST are determined by the reset switch control signal V-SW-RST in FIG. 10 Provided by the integrated integrated circuit 39 .

圖12、13及14為本發明的指紋顯示裝置的偵測指紋區間時序圖,其中,圖12為一標準掃描的時序,當重置開關電晶體SW-RST導通時,指紋複用線FP-comb的功能即相當於重置線RST,當重置開關電晶體SW-RST關閉時,FP-comb的功能即相當於選擇線;圖13為一延長曝光時間掃描的時序,當中,重置開關電晶體SW-RST只在第一週期時導通,但第二週期不導通。因此可以導致有曝光時間-I與曝光時間-II等兩種曝光時間;而圖14為一顯示與重置重疊掃描的時序,當中,指紋感測的電容重置的時間是與顯示的時間重疊。12, 13 and 14 are timing charts of the fingerprint detection interval of the fingerprint display device of the present invention, wherein, FIG. 12 is a timing sequence of a standard scan. When the reset switch transistor SW-RST is turned on, the fingerprint multiplexing line FP- The function of the comb is equivalent to the reset line RST. When the reset switch transistor SW-RST is turned off, the function of the FP-comb is equivalent to the selection line; The transistor SW-RST conducts only in the first cycle, but does not conduct in the second cycle. Therefore, there can be two exposure times, such as exposure time-I and exposure time-II; and Fig. 14 shows a sequence of overlapping scanning of display and reset, in which the reset time of the fingerprint sensing capacitor overlaps with the display time .

由以上之說明可知,基於內嵌式光學指紋感測器的重置線RST與選擇線SEL為造成開口率降低的主要原因,於本發明的指紋顯示裝置及驅動其之積體電路及方法中,藉由導入重置開關電晶體SW-RST或是導入重置開關電晶體SW-RST與選擇開關電晶體SW-SEL來做顯示掃描線、重置線與選擇線功能之間的切換,可將顯示掃描線、重置線、與選擇線整合成一條,以有效改善面板開口率,或是藉由只導入重置開關電晶體SW-RST來做重置線與選擇線功能之間的切換,可將重置線與選擇線整合成一條指紋複用線,以有效改善面板開口率,同時達成指紋感測之功效。且不會因重置開關電晶體與選擇開關電晶體的走線而降低開口率。It can be seen from the above description that the reset line RST and the select line SEL based on the in-cell optical fingerprint sensor are the main reasons for the reduction of the aperture ratio. In the fingerprint display device and the integrated circuit and method for driving the same of the present invention , by introducing the reset switch transistor SW-RST or introducing the reset switch transistor SW-RST and the selection switch transistor SW-SEL to switch between the functions of the display scan line, the reset line and the selection line, you can Integrate display scan lines, reset lines, and select lines into one to effectively improve the panel aperture ratio, or switch between reset line and select line functions by only introducing reset switching transistor SW-RST , the reset line and the selection line can be integrated into a fingerprint multiplexing line to effectively improve the panel aperture ratio and achieve the effect of fingerprint sensing.
