以下將配合第2圖和第3圖來進一步說明畫素電路130以及補償電路140的運作方式,第3圖為根據本揭 示文件一實施例的顯示面板100的運作時序圖。如第2圖所示,在畫素電路130及補償電路140的運作過程中,工作電壓VDD工作於高準位VHIGH(高於參考電壓Vref),控制訊號CTL1及CTL2和掃描訊號SCAN[n]會於高準位PH和低準位PL之間切換。 The operation of the pixel circuit 130 and the compensation circuit 140 will be further described below in conjunction with FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 3 is an operation timing diagram of the display panel 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2, during the operation of the pixel circuit 130 and the compensation circuit 140, the working voltage VDD works at the high level V HIGH (higher than the reference voltage Vref), the control signals CTL1 and CTL2 and the scan signal SCAN[n ] Will switch between high level PH and low level PL.

於此實施例中,電晶體T4和電晶體T2位於同一行,因此可以將節點N3的電壓用於對同一行的畫素電路130進行補償。 In this embodiment, the transistor T4 and the transistor T2 are located in the same row, so the voltage of the node N3 can be used to compensate the pixel circuits 130 in the same row.

承上述,在重置及補償階段TP1中,控制訊號CTL1為低準位PL,使得電晶體T3為導通狀態,控制訊號CTL2為高準位PH,使得電晶體T5為不導通狀態。由源極驅動器110將節點N3的電壓位準重置到高準位VHIGH。接著,源極驅動器110不再給出高準位VHIGH維持節點N3的電壓,因此節點N3的電壓會透過電晶體T4將原本於高準位VHIGH的電壓放電至電壓Vref+|VTH4|,其中VTH4是電晶體T4的臨界電壓。此時,源極驅動器110會讀取節點N3的電壓Vref+|VTH4|並儲存至其內部的記憶體中。 In view of the above, in the reset and compensation phase TP1, the control signal CTL1 is at the low level PL, so that the transistor T3 is in the conducting state, and the control signal CTL2 is at the high level PH, so that the transistor T5 is in the non-conducting state. The source driver 110 resets the voltage level of the node N3 to the high level V HIGH . Then, the source driver 110 no longer provides the high level V HIGH to maintain the voltage of the node N3, so the voltage of the node N3 will discharge the voltage originally at the high level V HIGH to the voltage Vref+|V TH4 | through the transistor T4, Among them, V TH4 is the critical voltage of transistor T4. At this time, the source driver 110 reads the voltage Vref+|V TH4 | of the node N3 and stores it in its internal memory.

承上述,於寫入階段TP2中,控制訊號CTL1為高準位PH,使得電晶體T3為不導通;掃描訊號SCAN[n]由高準位PH轉態為低準位PL,使得電晶體T1為導通狀態,資料電壓VDATA由資料線DL輸入至節點N1。而控制訊號CTL2由高準位PH轉態為低準位PL,使得電晶體T5為導通狀態,源極驅動器110會將補償電壓VDATA-|VTH4|輸入至畫素電路130的節點N1。補償電壓是先將節點N3的電壓 Vref+|VTH4|中的參考電壓Vref減去,再將電晶體T4的臨界電壓|VTH4|轉換為負值,最後再加上資料電壓VDATA得到VDATA-|VTH4|。接著,於發光階段TP3中,控制訊號CTL1仍為高準位PH,使得電晶體T3為不導通;掃描訊號SCAN[n]為高準位PH,使得電晶體T1轉態為關閉狀態,由於節點N1的電壓為VDATA-|VTH4|,使得電晶體T2為導通狀態,電晶體T2產生的驅動電流Id1由《公式1》可得知。再者,由於假設電晶體T4的特性與電晶體T2類似,因此電晶體T4的臨界電壓|VTH4|與電晶體T2的臨界電壓|VTH2|相同,兩者可相互抵消,《公式1》如下所示:

Figure 107141319-A0305-02-0009-1
In view of the above, in the writing phase TP2, the control signal CTL1 is at the high level PH, making the transistor T3 non-conductive; the scan signal SCAN[n] changes from the high level PH to the low level PL, making the transistor T1 In the ON state, the data voltage V DATA is input to the node N1 from the data line DL. The control signal CTL2 transitions from the high level PH to the low level PL, so that the transistor T5 is turned on, and the source driver 110 inputs the compensation voltage V DATA -|V TH4 | to the node N1 of the pixel circuit 130. The compensation voltage is to first subtract the reference voltage Vref in the node N3 voltage Vref+|V TH4 |, then convert the threshold voltage of the transistor T4 |V TH4 | to a negative value, and finally add the data voltage V DATA to obtain V DATA -|V TH4 |. Then, in the light-emitting stage TP3, the control signal CTL1 is still at the high level PH, making the transistor T3 non-conducting; the scan signal SCAN[n] is at the high level PH, making the transistor T1 turn off. The voltage of N1 is V DATA -|V TH4 |, so that the transistor T2 is turned on, and the drive current Id1 generated by the transistor T2 can be known from "Formula 1". Furthermore, since it is assumed that the characteristics of transistor T4 are similar to those of transistor T2, the threshold voltage of transistor T4 |V TH4 | is the same as the threshold voltage of transistor T2 |V TH2 |, and the two can cancel each other out, "Formula 1" As follows:
Figure 107141319-A0305-02-0009-1

於此實施例中,由《公式1》可知,驅動電流Id1與驅動電路140的臨界電壓無關。因此,即使顯示面板中不同區域的驅動電晶體具有不同的特性(例如,不同的臨界電壓),驅動電流Id1和資料電壓VDATA仍會維持固定的對應關係。 In this embodiment, it can be seen from "Equation 1" that the driving current Id1 has nothing to do with the threshold voltage of the driving circuit 140. Therefore, even if the driving transistors in different regions of the display panel have different characteristics (for example, different threshold voltages), the driving current Id1 and the data voltage V DATA will still maintain a fixed corresponding relationship.

For example, transistors T6 to T9 can also be implemented by P-type amorphous silicon thin film transistors.

以下將配合第5圖和第6圖來進一步說明畫素電路230的運作方式,第6圖為根據本揭示文件一實施例的畫素電路230的運作時序圖。如第6圖所示,在畫素電路230的運作過程中,工作電壓VDD工作於高準位VHIGH(高於參考電壓Vref),控制訊號CTL和掃描訊號SCAN[n]會於高準位PH和低準位PL之間切換。 Hereinafter, the operation of the pixel circuit 230 will be further described in conjunction with FIGS. 5 and 6. FIG. 6 is a timing diagram of the operation of the pixel circuit 230 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 6, during the operation of the pixel circuit 230, the working voltage VDD works at the high level V HIGH (higher than the reference voltage Vref), and the control signal CTL and the scan signal SCAN[n] are at the high level Switch between PH and low level PL.

承上述,在重置及補償階段TP1中,控制訊號CTL為低準位PL,使得電晶體T8為導通狀態,由源極驅動 器210將節點N6的電壓位準重置到高準位VHIGH。接著,源極驅動器210不再給出高準位VHIGH維持節點N6的電壓,因此節點N6的電壓會透過電晶體T9將原本於高準位VHIGH的電壓放電至電壓Vref+|VTH9|,其中VTH9是電晶體T9的臨界電壓。此時,源極驅動器110會讀取節點N6的電壓Vref+|VTH9|並儲存至其內部的記憶體中。 In view of the above, in the reset and compensation phase TP1, the control signal CTL is at the low level PL, so that the transistor T8 is turned on, and the source driver 210 resets the voltage level of the node N6 to the high level V HIGH . Then, the source driver 210 no longer provides the high level V HIGH to maintain the voltage of the node N6, so the voltage of the node N6 will discharge the voltage originally at the high level V HIGH to the voltage Vref+|V TH9 | through the transistor T9, Among them, V TH9 is the threshold voltage of transistor T9. At this time, the source driver 110 reads the voltage Vref+|V TH9 | of the node N6 and stores it in its internal memory.

承上述,於寫入階段TP2中,掃描訊號SCAN[n]由高準位PH轉態為低準位PL,使得電晶體T6為導通狀態,源極驅動器210會將補償電壓VDATA-|VTH9|由資料線DL輸入至畫素電路230的節點N4。補償電壓是先將節點N6的電壓Vref+|VTH9|中的參考電壓Vref減去,再將電晶體T9的臨界電壓|VTH9|轉換為負值,最後再加上資料電壓VDATA得到VDATA-|VTH9|。接著,於發光階段TP3中,控制訊號CTL仍為高準位PH,使得電晶體T8為不導通;掃描訊號SCAN[n]為高準位PH,使得電晶體T6轉態為關閉狀態,由於節點N4的電壓為VDATA+|VTH9|,使得電晶體T7為導通狀態,電晶體T7產生的驅動電流Id2由《公式2》可得知。再者,由於假設電晶體T9的特性與電晶體T7類似,因此電晶體T9的臨界電壓|VTH9|與電晶體T7的臨界電壓|VTH7|相同,兩者可相互抵消,《公式2》如下所示:

Figure 107141319-A0305-02-0012-2
In view of the above, in the writing phase TP2, the scan signal SCAN[n] changes from the high level PH to the low level PL, so that the transistor T6 is turned on, and the source driver 210 will compensate the voltage V DATA -|V TH9 | Input from the data line DL to the node N4 of the pixel circuit 230. The compensation voltage is to first subtract the reference voltage Vref in the node N6 voltage Vref+|V TH9 |, then convert the threshold voltage of the transistor T9 |V TH9 | to a negative value, and finally add the data voltage V DATA to obtain V DATA -|V TH9 |. Then, in the light-emitting stage TP3, the control signal CTL is still at the high level PH, making the transistor T8 non-conducting; the scan signal SCAN[n] is at the high level PH, making the transistor T6 turn off. The voltage of N4 is V DATA +|V TH9 |, so that the transistor T7 is turned on, and the drive current Id2 generated by the transistor T7 can be known from "Equation 2". Furthermore, since it is assumed that the characteristics of the transistor T9 are similar to those of the transistor T7, the threshold voltage of the transistor T9 |V TH9 | is the same as the threshold voltage of the transistor T7 |V TH7 |, and the two can cancel each other out, "Formula 2" As follows:
Figure 107141319-A0305-02-0012-2

於此實施例中,由《公式2》可知,驅動電流 Id2與驅動電路230的臨界電壓無關。因此,即使顯示面板中不同區域的驅動電晶體230具有不同的特性(例如,不同的臨界電壓),驅動電流Id2和資料電壓VDATA仍會維持固定的對應關係。 In this embodiment, it can be seen from "Equation 2" that the driving current Id2 has nothing to do with the threshold voltage of the driving circuit 230. Therefore, even if the driving transistors 230 in different regions of the display panel have different characteristics (for example, different threshold voltages), the driving current Id2 and the data voltage V DATA will still maintain a fixed corresponding relationship.

綜上所述,本揭示內容之畫素電路可利用外部補償電路或是內部補償電路,將補償電壓傳送至畫素電路內部進行補償,解決臨界電壓變異產生的電流不均勻性,達到防止閃爍現象,進而增加顯示畫面的對比度的功效。 In summary, the pixel circuit of the present disclosure can use an external compensation circuit or an internal compensation circuit to transmit the compensation voltage to the pixel circuit for compensation, solve the current unevenness caused by the critical voltage variation, and prevent flicker. , Thereby increasing the contrast of the display screen.
