如第3A圖所示,於初始階段,第一發光訊號EM[N+1]提供致能電壓準位V1導通第一電晶體T1,以將第一驅動訊號OVDD傳遞至第一節點N1。掃描訊號S1[N] 提供致能電壓準位V2導通第五電晶體T5以將第一驅動訊號OVDD傳遞至第三節點N3,以及導通第七電晶體T7以將第四節點N4的電壓準位設為資料電壓Vdata。第二發光訊號EM[N]以及掃描訊號S1[N+1]則提供禁能電壓準位V0關斷第三電晶體T3、第四電晶體T4以及第六電晶體T6。As shown in FIG. 3A, in the initial stage, the first light emitting signal EM[N+1] provides the enabling voltage level V1 to turn on the first transistor T1, so as to transmit the first driving signal OVDD to the first node N1. The scan signal S1[N] provides the enable voltage level V2 to turn on the fifth transistor T5 to transmit the first driving signal OVDD to the third node N3, and turn on the seventh transistor T7 to turn on the voltage level of the fourth node N4 Set to the data voltage Vdata. The second light-emitting signal EM[N] and the scanning signal S1[N+1] provide the disable voltage level V0 to turn off the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, and the sixth transistor T6.

如第3B圖所示,於補償/寫入階段,第一發光訊號EM[N+1] 的電壓由致能電壓準位V1變化至禁能電壓準位V0,使得第一電晶體T1被關斷。第二發光訊號EM[N]則持續提供禁能電壓準位V0,關斷第三電晶體T3以及第四電晶體T4(亦即,控制電路110)。掃描訊號S1[N] 維持致能電壓準位V2,持續導通第五電晶體T5以及第七電晶體T7。掃描訊號S1[N+1]的電壓則由禁能電壓準位V0變化至致能電壓準位V2,使得第六電晶體T6導通,以將第二電晶體T2的臨界電壓經由第五電晶體T5(亦即,補償單元120)儲存至第三節點N3。As shown in Figure 3B, during the compensation/write phase, the voltage of the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1] changes from the enable voltage level V1 to the disable voltage level V0, so that the first transistor T1 is turned off Off. The second light-emitting signal EM[N] continuously provides the disable voltage level V0, turning off the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4 (ie, the control circuit 110). The scan signal S1[N] maintains the enabling voltage level V2, and continuously turns on the fifth transistor T5 and the seventh transistor T7. The voltage of the scan signal S1[N+1] changes from the disable voltage level V0 to the enable voltage level V2, so that the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, so as to pass the threshold voltage of the second transistor T2 through the fifth transistor T5 (that is, the compensation unit 120) is stored to the third node N3.

具體而言,當第六電晶體T6導通時,第二電晶體T2的控制端(亦即,第三節點N3)開始對第二端(亦即,第二節點N2)放電,使得第三節點N3的電壓準位變化至Vref-Vth2,其中符號「Vth2」為第二電晶體T2的臨界電壓。Specifically, when the sixth transistor T6 is turned on, the control terminal of the second transistor T2 (that is, the third node N3) starts to discharge the second terminal (that is, the second node N2), so that the third node The voltage level of N3 changes to Vref-Vth2, where the symbol "Vth2" is the threshold voltage of the second transistor T2.

如第3C圖所示,於重置階段,第一發光訊號EM[N+1]維持禁能電壓準位V0持續關斷第一電晶體T1。第二發光訊號EM[N]的電壓由禁能電壓準位V0變化至致能電壓準位V1,使得第三電晶體T3以及第四電晶體T4(亦即,控制電路110) 導通。掃描訊號S1[N]由致能電壓準位V2變化至禁能電壓準位V0,以關斷第五電晶體T5以及第七電晶體T7。掃描訊號S1[N+1]維持致能電壓準位V2,持續導通第六電晶體T6以將第二節點N2和第四節點N4的電壓準位重置為參考電壓Vref。As shown in FIG. 3C, in the reset stage, the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1] maintains the disable voltage level V0 to continuously turn off the first transistor T1. The voltage of the second light emitting signal EM[N] changes from the disable voltage level V0 to the enable voltage level V1, so that the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4 (ie, the control circuit 110) are turned on. The scan signal S1[N] changes from the enable voltage level V2 to the disable voltage level V0 to turn off the fifth transistor T5 and the seventh transistor T7. The scan signal S1[N+1] maintains the enable voltage level V2, and continues to turn on the sixth transistor T6 to reset the voltage levels of the second node N2 and the fourth node N4 to the reference voltage Vref.

如第3D圖所示,於發光階段,第一發光訊號EM[N+1]的電壓由禁能電壓準位V0變化至致能電壓準位V1,以導通第一電晶體T1。第二發光訊號EM[N]維持致能電壓準位V1,使得第三電晶體T3以及第四電晶體T4(亦即,控制電路110) 持續導通。掃描訊號S1[N]維持禁能電壓準位V0,保持第五電晶體T5以及第七電晶體T7關斷。掃描訊號S1[N+1]由致能電壓準位V2變化至禁能電壓準位V0,使得第六電晶體T6關斷。此時,第二電晶體T2根據第三節點N3與第二節點N2的電壓差產生驅動電流I,並將驅動電流I輸出至發光單元EU使得畫素電路100於發光階段發光。As shown in FIG. 3D, during the light-emitting phase, the voltage of the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1] changes from the disable voltage level V0 to the enable voltage level V1 to turn on the first transistor T1. The second light emitting signal EM[N] maintains the enabling voltage level V1, so that the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4 (ie, the control circuit 110) are continuously turned on. The scan signal S1[N] maintains the disable voltage level V0, and keeps the fifth transistor T5 and the seventh transistor T7 off. The scan signal S1[N+1] changes from the enable voltage level V2 to the disable voltage level V0, so that the sixth transistor T6 is turned off. At this time, the second transistor T2 generates a driving current I according to the voltage difference between the third node N3 and the second node N2, and outputs the driving current I to the light-emitting unit EU so that the pixel circuit 100 emits light during the light-emitting phase.

綜上所述,畫素電路100的優點在於可藉由使用下一級移位暫存器產生的訊號(例如,第一發光訊號EM[N+1]以及掃描訊號S1[N+1])來減少閘極驅動陣列的布局面積以應用於窄邊框的顯示器之中。In summary, the advantage of the pixel circuit 100 is that it can use the signals generated by the next-stage shift register (for example, the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1] and the scanning signal S1[N+1]). The layout area of the gate drive array is reduced to be applied to a display with a narrow bezel.

第4圖為根據本揭示文件另一實施例所繪示的畫素電路400的示意圖。畫素電路400包含發光單元EU、第一電晶體T1、第二電晶體T2、控制電路410、補償單元420、重置單元430、儲存電容Cs以及寫入單元440,其中控制電路410、補償單元420以及重置單元430可分別由第1圖的控制電路110、補償單元120以及重置單元130實現。FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a pixel circuit 400 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. The pixel circuit 400 includes a light-emitting unit EU, a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a control circuit 410, a compensation unit 420, a reset unit 430, a storage capacitor Cs, and a writing unit 440, wherein the control circuit 410, the compensation unit The 420 and the reset unit 430 can be implemented by the control circuit 110, the compensation unit 120, and the reset unit 130 in FIG. 1, respectively.

值得注意的是,在第4圖的實施例中,寫入單元440是根據掃描訊號S2[N]決定是否導通以傳遞資料電壓Vdata。也就是說,第七電晶體T7的控制端接收掃描訊號S2[N] 而選擇性地將資料電壓Vdata提供至第四節點N4,其中掃描訊號S2[N]具有與掃描訊號S1[N]不同的脈波寬度以及周期。在一些實施例中,掃描訊號S1[N]與掃描訊號S2[N]可藉由不同的掃描線提供至顯示器。畫素電路400中其餘元件的連接關係與操作和畫素電路100類似,在此不再贅述。It is worth noting that, in the embodiment of FIG. 4, the writing unit 440 determines whether to turn on to transfer the data voltage Vdata according to the scan signal S2[N]. That is, the control terminal of the seventh transistor T7 receives the scan signal S2[N] and selectively provides the data voltage Vdata to the fourth node N4, wherein the scan signal S2[N] is different from the scan signal S1[N] The pulse width and period of the pulse. In some embodiments, the scan signal S1[N] and the scan signal S2[N] can be provided to the display through different scan lines. The connection relationship of the remaining components in the pixel circuit 400 is similar to the operation of the pixel circuit 100, and will not be repeated here.

第5圖為根據第4圖中的畫素電路400所繪示的訊號時序波形圖。如第5圖所示,畫素電路400的訊號時序中,一個周期包含五個階段,分別為初始階段、補償階段、寫入階段、重置階段與發光階段。第一發光訊號EM[N+1]、第二發光訊號EM[N]、掃描訊號S1[N]以及掃描訊號S1[N+1]的波形類似與前述第2圖的實施例,在此不再贅述。FIG. 5 is a signal timing waveform diagram drawn according to the pixel circuit 400 in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 5, in the signal timing of the pixel circuit 400, one cycle includes five phases, which are an initial phase, a compensation phase, a writing phase, a reset phase, and a light-emitting phase. The waveforms of the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1], the second light-emitting signal EM[N], the scan signal S1[N], and the scan signal S1[N+1] are similar to those of the embodiment in FIG. 2, and are not here. Go into details again.

因此,寫入單元440的導通與關斷是獨立藉由掃描訊號S2[N]控制,不會被畫素電路400的補償時間拖延,使得畫素電路400應用於高解析度或高操作頻率的顯示器時,仍能夠獲得充足的時間進行補償和寫入,以增加顯示畫面的均勻性。Therefore, the turn-on and turn-off of the writing unit 440 are independently controlled by the scan signal S2[N], and will not be delayed by the compensation time of the pixel circuit 400, so that the pixel circuit 400 is used for high resolution or high operating frequency. When the display is displayed, sufficient time can still be obtained for compensation and writing to increase the uniformity of the displayed picture.

第6圖為根據本揭示文件又一實施例所繪示的畫素電路600的示意圖。畫素電路600包含發光單元EU、第一電晶體T1、第二電晶體T2、控制電路610、補償單元620、重置單元630、儲存電容Cs以及寫入單元640。其中控制電路610可由第1圖的控制電路110實現。畫素電路600中各項元件的連接關係也與第1圖中的畫素電路100類似,在此不再贅述。FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a pixel circuit 600 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. The pixel circuit 600 includes a light emitting unit EU, a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, a control circuit 610, a compensation unit 620, a reset unit 630, a storage capacitor Cs, and a writing unit 640. The control circuit 610 can be implemented by the control circuit 110 in FIG. 1. The connection relationship of the various elements in the pixel circuit 600 is also similar to the pixel circuit 100 in FIG. 1, and will not be repeated here.

值得注意的是,在第6圖的實施例中,補償單元620是根據掃描訊號S2[N] 選擇性地導通第一節點N1與第三節點N3,以將第二電晶體T2的臨界電壓記錄於第三節點N3。重置單元630是根據掃描訊號S1[N]選擇性地傳遞參考電壓Vref至第二節點N2。寫入單元640是根據掃描訊號S2[N]選擇性地將資料電壓Vdata提供至第四節點N4。It is worth noting that in the embodiment of FIG. 6, the compensation unit 620 selectively turns on the first node N1 and the third node N3 according to the scan signal S2[N] to record the threshold voltage of the second transistor T2 At the third node N3. The reset unit 630 selectively transmits the reference voltage Vref to the second node N2 according to the scan signal S1[N]. The writing unit 640 selectively provides the data voltage Vdata to the fourth node N4 according to the scan signal S2[N].

第7圖為根據第6圖中的畫素電路600所繪示的訊號時序波形圖。如第7圖所示,畫素電路600可被操作於兩種工作模式,一般模式以及節能模式。於一般模式,畫素電路600的訊號時序類似於第2圖,一個周期包含四個階段,分別為初始階段、補償/寫入階段、重置階段與發光階段。FIG. 7 is a signal timing waveform diagram drawn according to the pixel circuit 600 in FIG. 6. As shown in FIG. 7, the pixel circuit 600 can be operated in two working modes, a normal mode and an energy-saving mode. In the normal mode, the signal timing of the pixel circuit 600 is similar to that of Fig. 2. A cycle includes four stages, namely the initial stage, the compensation/write stage, the reset stage, and the light-emitting stage.

而於節能模式,畫素電路600的訊號時序,一個周期包含兩個階段,分別為重置階段與發光階段。第一發光訊號EM[N+1]、第二發光訊號EM[N]以及掃描訊號S1[N]在節能模式的波形類似於一般模式,在此不再贅述。掃描訊號S2[N]於一般模式下每周期具有一脈波,而於節能模式下則維持禁能電壓準位。也就是說,於節能模式中,掃描訊號S2[N] 的周期將大於掃描訊號S1[N]的周期。In the energy-saving mode, the signal timing of the pixel circuit 600 includes two phases in one cycle, namely the reset phase and the light-emitting phase. The waveforms of the first light-emitting signal EM[N+1], the second light-emitting signal EM[N], and the scanning signal S1[N] in the energy-saving mode are similar to those in the general mode, and will not be repeated here. The scanning signal S2[N] has a pulse wave per cycle in the normal mode, and maintains the disabled voltage level in the energy-saving mode. In other words, in the energy-saving mode, the period of the scan signal S2[N] will be greater than the period of the scan signal S1[N].

在一些實施例中,掃描訊號S2[N]具有較低頻率(例如,1赫茲)。舉例來說,畫素電路600於一秒中可以執行1次的一般模式和59次的節能模式。In some embodiments, the scanning signal S2[N] has a lower frequency (for example, 1 Hz). For example, the pixel circuit 600 can execute the normal mode once and the power-saving mode 59 times in one second.

在一些實施例中,當顯示器顯示低幀畫面時,畫素電路600的訊號波形將從一般模式轉換至節能模式。舉例來說,當顯示器顯示靜態圖片畫面時,畫素電路600先於一般模式下產生上述靜態圖片的顯示畫面,並於節能模式下,執行重置階段與發光階段以保持上一幀的顯示畫面。In some embodiments, when the display displays a low-frame image, the signal waveform of the pixel circuit 600 will switch from the normal mode to the energy-saving mode. For example, when the display displays a static picture, the pixel circuit 600 generates the above-mentioned static picture display before the normal mode, and in the energy-saving mode, performs a reset phase and a light-emitting phase to maintain the display of the previous frame .
