Description

發光二極體驅動電路 Light-emitting diode drive circuit

主動式發光二極體可做為顯示裝置的背光模組,其製成的顯示裝置可廣泛的應用於手機、電視、車用顯示器、筆記型電腦等顯示螢幕。就發光二極體的操作原理來說,隨著提供偏壓增加驅動電流能使得發光二極體的亮度增加。為了提高電流,需要增加驅動電晶體的閘極源極跨壓或兩端之電壓差,然而這樣的作法使得耗費在電晶體的功耗佔了相當大的比例。在現今電子裝置講求省電的需求下,要達到提升驅動電流又要減少電能消耗,成了難以取捨的選擇。 Active light-emitting diodes can be used as backlight modules of display devices, and display devices made by them can be widely used in display screens of mobile phones, televisions, car monitors, notebook computers, etc. As far as the operating principle of the light-emitting diode is concerned, as the bias voltage increases, the driving current can increase the brightness of the light-emitting diode. In order to increase the current, it is necessary to increase the voltage difference between the gate and source of the driving transistor or the voltage difference between the two ends. However, this method makes the power consumption of the transistor account for a considerable proportion. With the current demand for power saving in electronic devices, it is difficult to choose between increasing the drive current and reducing power consumption.

請參閱第1圖,其係為本發明實施例之發光二極體驅動電路之示意圖。如圖所示,發光二極體驅動電路包含第一電晶體T1、電容C、驅動電晶體DT、發光二極體LED以及切換電晶體SW。第一電晶體T1具有第一端、第二端及控制端,第一端連接於資料線DL,第二端連接於驅動電晶體DT之控制端,控制端則連接於掃描線SL。電容C具有第一端及第二端,第一端連接第一電晶體T1之第二端,第二端連接於驅動電晶體DT與發光二極體LED之間。驅動電晶體DT具有第一端、第二端及控制端,第一端連接第一電壓源S1,接收第一工作電壓VDD,第二端連接電容C之第二端,控制端連接第一電晶體T1之第二端。發光二極體LED具有第一端及第二端,第一端連接驅動電晶體DT之第二端,第二端連接第二電壓源VSS。切換電晶體SW具有第一端、第二端及控制端,第一端連 接於控制線CL,第二端連接驅動電晶體DT之控制端,控制端連接於第一端與控制線CL之間。 Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram of a light-emitting diode driving circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the light emitting diode driving circuit includes a first transistor T1, a capacitor C, a driving transistor DT, a light emitting diode LED, and a switching transistor SW. The first transistor T1 has a first terminal, a second terminal and a control terminal. The first terminal is connected to the data line DL, the second terminal is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor DT, and the control terminal is connected to the scan line SL. The capacitor C has a first end and a second end, the first end is connected to the second end of the first transistor T1, and the second end is connected between the driving transistor DT and the light emitting diode LED. The driving transistor DT has a first terminal, a second terminal and a control terminal. The first terminal is connected to the first voltage source S1 and receives the first working voltage VDD, the second terminal is connected to the second terminal of the capacitor C, and the control terminal is connected to the first power source S1. The second end of crystal T1. The light emitting diode LED has a first end and a second end, the first end is connected to the second end of the driving transistor DT, and the second end is connected to the second voltage source VSS. The switching transistor SW has a first end, a second end and a control end, the first end is connected to Connected to the control line CL, the second end is connected to the control end of the driving transistor DT, and the control end is connected between the first end and the control line CL.

本實施例所界定的驅動電路形成於多條資料線DL及掃描線SL交錯產生之複數個像素陣列當中,每一個像素區域中第一電晶體T1可接收資料線DL的資料訊號,並配合掃描線SL所提供之掃描訊號,將對應像素區域的灰階值寫入,控制發光二極體LED的調光程度,由此像素陣列形成的次毫米發光二極體(Mini LED)顯示裝置,可達成高對比度之顯示效果。在本實施例中,當發光二極體驅動電路為第一模式M1時,第一電晶體T1接受掃描線SL的高對比訊號而使第一電晶體T1導通,並接收資料線DL的灰階寫入訊號。驅動電路中的電容C儲存灰階寫入訊號之電壓,使得驅動電晶體DT根據儲存電壓來決定驅動電晶體DT之第一閘極源極跨壓(VGS),進一步產生驅動電流來控制發光二極體LED之亮度。此時,切換電晶體SW處於關閉狀態,與驅動電晶體DT之控制端斷開。雖然,上述每個像素區域都可藉由對應之第一電晶體T1來控制該區域之調光程度,但上述高對比顯示狀態之控制方式,大量的功率消耗在第一電晶體T1上,為了降低顯示裝置的功耗,當顯示裝置不需要高對比顯示效果時,例如進行一般文書操作或顯示選單畫面時,則將發光二極體驅動電路切換為第二模式M2。 The driving circuit defined in this embodiment is formed in a plurality of pixel arrays interlaced by a plurality of data lines DL and scan lines SL, and the first transistor T1 in each pixel area can receive the data signal of the data line DL and cooperate with the scan The scan signal provided by the line SL writes the grayscale value of the corresponding pixel area to control the dimming degree of the light-emitting diode LED. The sub-millimeter light-emitting diode (Mini LED) display device formed by the pixel array can be Achieve high contrast display effect. In this embodiment, when the light-emitting diode driving circuit is in the first mode M1, the first transistor T1 receives the high-contrast signal from the scan line SL to turn on the first transistor T1, and receives the gray level of the data line DL Write the signal. The capacitor C in the driving circuit stores the voltage of the gray-scale write signal, so that the driving transistor DT determines the first gate-source voltage (VGS) of the driving transistor DT according to the stored voltage, and further generates a driving current to control the light-emitting second The brightness of the polar body LED. At this time, the switching transistor SW is in the off state and disconnected from the control terminal of the driving transistor DT. Although each of the above-mentioned pixel regions can be controlled by the corresponding first transistor T1 to control the dimming degree of the region, the above-mentioned high-contrast display state control method requires a large amount of power to be consumed on the first transistor T1. The power consumption of the display device is reduced. When the display device does not require a high-contrast display effect, for example, when performing a general paper operation or displaying a menu screen, the light-emitting diode driving circuit is switched to the second mode M2.

同樣參閱第1圖,在本實施例中,當發光二極體驅動電路為第二模式M2時,第一電晶體T1關閉以停止灰階寫入功能,而切換電晶體SW之控制端接收控制線路CL傳送的閘極關閉(GOFF)訊號以開啟切換電晶體SW,切換電晶體SW之第二端連接驅動電晶體DT之控制端,當導通時,閘極關閉(GOFF)訊號可將驅動電晶體DT之第一閘極源極跨壓(VGS)拉高至第一閘極源極跨壓(VGS’)。在本實施例中,閘極關閉(GOFF)訊號可為高位準電壓(VGH),例如將 原本資料線路的6V拉高到大於10V。在一實施方式中,閘極關閉(GOFF)訊號的電壓位準大於資料線路DL所傳送的資料電壓的最大值。藉由將驅動電晶體DT之閘極源極跨壓拉高,第一端與第二端之電壓差(VDS)降低,因而達到省電的效果。此外,所有像素區域當中均藉由閘極關閉(GOFF)訊號控制驅動電晶體DT,使得驅動發光二極體LED之電流一致,提供顯示裝置中做為背光單元的像素區域均勻之亮度。 Also referring to Figure 1, in this embodiment, when the LED driving circuit is in the second mode M2, the first transistor T1 is turned off to stop the grayscale writing function, and the control terminal of the switching transistor SW receives control The gate off (GOFF) signal transmitted by the line CL turns on the switching transistor SW. The second terminal of the switching transistor SW is connected to the control terminal of the driving transistor DT. When it is turned on, the gate off (GOFF) signal can turn on the driving power. The first gate-source voltage (VGS) of the crystal DT is pulled up to the first gate-source voltage (VGS'). In this embodiment, the gate off (GOFF) signal can be a high level voltage (VGH), for example, The 6V of the original data line is pulled up to greater than 10V. In one embodiment, the voltage level of the gate-off (GOFF) signal is greater than the maximum value of the data voltage transmitted by the data line DL. By pulling the gate source of the driving transistor DT high across the voltage, the voltage difference (VDS) between the first terminal and the second terminal is reduced, thus achieving the effect of power saving.

When the light-emitting diode driving circuit is in the first mode M1, the first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, and the third transistor T3 are turned on, and the fourth transistor Transistor T4 and switching transistor SW are turned off. The first transistor T1, the second transistor T2, the third transistor T3 and the light emitting diode LED form a first current mirror circuit, that is, the first current mirror circuit flows through the first transistor T1. The current mirror shoots to the light-emitting diode LED and drives the light-emitting diode LED to emit light.
