圖1為依據本發明第一實施例的位移暫存器的電路示意圖。請參照圖1,在本實施例中,位移暫存器100包括上拉控制電路110、上拉電路120、下拉控制電路130、下拉電路140、快速下拉電路150。FIG. 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of a shift register according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , in this embodiment, the
上拉控制電路110接收第一掃描方向電壓U2D、第二掃描方向電壓D2U、驅動信號ST(n-4)(對應第一驅動信號)及驅動信號ST(n+8)(對應第二驅動信號),以基於第一掃描方向電壓U2D、第二掃描方向電壓D2U、驅動信號ST(n-4)及驅動信號ST(n+8)設定內部驅動電壓Q。其中,n為一指引數且為正整數。The pull-
在本發明實施例中,第一掃描方向電壓U2D與第二掃描方向電壓D2U的電壓準位彼此相反,亦即在第一掃描方向電壓U2D為高電壓準位及低電壓準位的其中之一時,第二掃描方向電壓D2U為高電壓準位及低電壓準位的其中另一。以順向掃描而言,在不同操作頻率下,驅動信號ST(n-4)可為領先驅動信號ST(n)4個/2個時間單位(例如1條水平掃描線時間)的驅動動信號,驅動信號ST(n+8)為落後驅動信號ST(n)8個/4個時間單位的驅動動信號;以逆向掃描而言,則上述關係則相反。In the embodiment of the present invention, the voltage levels of the first scanning direction voltage U2D and the second scanning direction voltage D2U are opposite to each other, that is, when the first scanning direction voltage U2D is one of a high voltage level and a low voltage level , the second scanning direction voltage D2U is the other of the high voltage level and the low voltage level. For forward scanning, under different operating frequencies, the driving signal ST(n-4) can be a driving signal that leads the driving signal ST(n) by 4/2 time units (for example, the time of one horizontal scanning line). , the driving signal ST(n+8) is a driving driving signal that lags behind the driving signal ST(n) by 8/4 time units; for reverse scanning, the above relationship is reversed.
上拉電路120耦接上拉控制電路110,且接收時脈信號HC1(對應第一時脈信號)及內部驅動電壓Q,以基於時脈信號HC1及內部驅動電壓Q提供對應的閘極信號G(n)及對應的驅動信號ST(n)(對應第三驅動信號)。下拉控制電路130耦接上拉控制電路110,以基於內部驅動電壓Q拉低閘極信號G(n)及內部驅動電壓Q,且提供內部控制信號P。The pull-
下拉電路140耦接上拉電路120及下拉控制電路130,且接收內部控制信號P,以基於內部控制信號P拉低閘極信號G(n)及驅動信號ST(n)。快速下拉電路150耦接上拉電路120,且接收第一時序控制信號MD1、第二時序控制信號MD2、驅動信號ST(n+4)(對應第四驅動信號)及第五驅動信號ST(n+2)(對應第五驅動信號),以基於第一時序控制信號MD1及第二時序控制信號MD2選擇驅動信號ST(n+4)及驅動信號ST(n+2)的其中之一,並且基於所選擇的驅動信號ST(n+4)及驅動信號ST(n+2)拉低閘極信號G(n)。The pull-
以順向掃描而言,在不同操作頻率下,驅動信號ST(n+4)可為落後驅動信號ST(n)4個/2個時間單位的驅動動信號,驅動信號ST(n+2)為落後驅動信號ST(n)2個/1個時間單位的驅動動信號。在本發明實施例中,假設閘極信號G(n)及驅動信號ST(n)是致能兩個時間單元以提供畫素足夠的反應時間(即充電時間),此時快速下拉電路150可反應於第一時序控制信號MD1及第二時序控制信號MD2選擇驅動信號ST(n+4)及驅動信號ST(n+2),以避免閘極信號G(n)及驅動信號ST(n)被提早下拉,藉此可適應顯示裝置(如圖4所示顯示裝置10)的操作頻率的改變。In terms of forward scanning, under different operating frequencies, the driving signal ST(n+4) can be a driving signal that lags behind the driving signal ST(n) by 4/2 time units, and the driving signal ST(n+2) It is a driving driving signal that lags behind the driving signal ST(n) by 2/1 time unit. In the embodiment of the present invention, it is assumed that the gate signal G(n) and the driving signal ST(n) enable two time units to provide sufficient response time (ie, charging time) for the pixels. At this time, the fast pull-
在本發明實施例中,上拉控制電路110基於驅動信號ST(n-4)及驅動信號ST(n+8)選擇第一掃描方向電壓U2D及第二掃描方向電壓D2U的其中之一,並基於所選擇的第一掃描方向電壓U2D或第二掃描方向電壓D2U設定內部驅動電壓Q。舉例來說,進行順向掃描時,第一掃描方向電壓U2D為高電壓準位,並且第二掃描方向電壓D2U為低電壓準位。因此,在順向掃描時,內部驅動電壓Q會受第一掃描方向電壓U2D影響設定為高電壓準位,並且內部驅動電壓Q會受第二掃描方向電壓D2U設定為低電壓準位。進行逆向掃描時,第一掃描方向電壓U2D為低電壓準位,並且第二掃描方向電壓D2U為高電壓準位。因此,在逆向掃描時,內部驅動電壓Q會受第二掃描方向電壓D2U影響設定為高電壓準位,並且內部驅動電壓Q會受第一掃描方向電壓U2D設定為低電壓準位。In the embodiment of the present invention, the pull-

電阻R耦接於第七電晶體M7的第二端與第八電晶體M8的第一端之間。第九電晶體M9具有耦接內部驅動電壓Q的第一端、接收內部控制信號P的控制端、以及接收電源低電壓XDONB的第二端。第十電晶體M10具有接收重置信號RST的第一端、接收重置信號RST的控制端、以及耦接第八電晶體M8的第一端的第二端。第十一電晶體M11具有接收閘極信號G(n)的第一端、接收閘極信號G(n)的控制端、以及耦接第九電晶體M9的第一端的第二端。The resistor R is coupled between the second end of the seventh transistor M7 and the first end of the eighth transistor M8.
